Switzerland is the best place to be born in the world in 2013,and the US is just 16th. A new study made by the Economist Intelligence Unit says American babies will have a dimmer(暗淡)future than those born in Hong Kong,Ireland and even Canada. The EIU,a sister company of The Economist,tried to measure how well countries will provide the best opportunities for a healthy,safe and prosperous life in years to come.
People born in Switzerland will tend to be the happiest and have the best quality of life in terms of wealth,health and trust in public institutions,according to the analysis. The Scandinavian countries of Norway,Sweden and Denmark also all make the top five in a‘quality-of-lif e’index(指数)where it is best to be born next year.
One of the most important factors is being rich,but other factors come into play including crime,trust in public institutions and the health of family life. In total,the index takes into account 11 factors. These include fixed factors such as geography,others that change slowly over time such as demography (人口学) social and cultural characteristics, and the state of the world economy. The index also looks at income per head in 2030,which is roughly when children born in 2013 will reach adulthood. Small economies take up the top 10 countries,with Australia coming second and New Zealand and the Netherlands not too far behind.
Half of the top 10 countries are European,but only one,the Netherlands,is from the eurozone. The crisis-ridden south of Europe,including Greece,Portugal and Spain,falls behind despite the advantage of a favourable climate. Interestingly,the largest European economies-Germany,France and Britain-do not do particularly well. Nigeria has the unenviable(不值得羡慕的)title of being the worst country for a baby to enter the world in 2013.

     Richard Wagner was a German musician who lived in the mid-19th century. He gained fame by
writing operas, a form of performance combining singing, music on
instruments , and drama.
     Wagner's lif'e and work have been very controversial(引起争议的). While he  wrote  excellent 
 music, many people think his operas are too dark and serious,lacking the fun in most operas written
before his time.
     Wagner,on the other hand, thought the opera of his time was too simple. He wanted to make opera
a serious form of art that combined drama and music to tell deep stories that would have a strong effect
on the audience.
     Some people thought Wagner's new kind of music was too different from the operas they were used
to hearing. Wagner agreed with them. In fact, he didn't call his works "operas" at all but using a German
word that means " Musical Festival" or " Musical Play" .
      While many people today still do not like Wagner's operas,they cannot deny that Wagner has had a
lot of influence on opera as a form of art. Wagner invented the tradition of turning off the lights before
starting a play. He also was the first person to make the whole audience sit down for an entire play.
Today, almost all operas are performed in this manner.
     Wagner as a man was even more controversial than Wagner as a writer of music. He hated Jewish
people , slept with his friends' wives,and made many people angry-lots of things we would today think
of as evil. Some would say he was a good musician, while others hold that he was a bad musician. But it
would be difficult to say he was not an important person in music: and in the world.
1. Which of the following best expresses the main idea of the passage?
A. Richard Wagner is not worth talking about.
B. Richard Wagner was an evil man.
C. Richard Wagner wrote operas.
D. Richard Wagner is a very controversial man.
2. Which of the following uses the word "deep"  in the same sense as it is used at the end of
    paragraph three?  
A. The ocean is very deep.
B. He has a very deep , booming voice.
C. It is not easy to tell the meaning of this poem,because the poet is very deep.
D. We had the deep issue resolved last week.
3. Which of the following is not a way in which Wagner's works were different from normal operas
   before his time?   
A. Wagner called his works "Musical Festival".
B. Wagner used a combination of drama, music on instruments, and singing.
C. Wagner turned off the lights before starting a play.
D. Wagner made the whole audience sit down for an entire performance.
4.  Which of the following does not support the point that the author makes in the last sentence?    
A. Few musicians have been affected by Wagner's works.
B. Most writers of opera today think opera as a serious form of music.
C. Today, all operas are performed with the lights off before starting and the audience seated.
D. Wagner's music had a big influence on Adolf Hitler.

Mistakes are a part of life. To err is human. Failure is also a part of life, not the end of life. Be happy facing life’s challenges. When you make the effort to be happy and to improve your life, you are actually rewarded along the way.

  Life is like a game and maybe you can award(奖励) points for every effort that has been a success for you. Try it. Add ten points for every achievement. And when you have reached 50 points, just yell, “ Hey, I’ve won!” and give yourself a reward. If you happen to have missed your points for whatever reason, tell yourself, “Well, I tried!” which is better than not trying at all. Don’t let it be said you didn’t try.

  What is it that you want to make yourself happy? Actually happiness means different things to different people. For example, an athlete will be happy winning his first race. For a new mother happiness would be seeing her baby’s first steps. Happiness for a poor person would mean having a meal just for today. So happiness for you is really something simple that you want for yourself.

  It really doesn’t have to be big. As a matter of fact you should always have realistic expectations. Make the best out of every given situation. If you expect a certain result from a situation and it does not happen, don’t get despondent. This just means trying harder next time. We all have in us the power to succeed. Don’t let “ give up ” be a part of your vocabulary.

1.By saying “To err is human”, the author means that________.

  A. human beings should try to avoid(避免) making mistakes

  B. no one is perfect(完美的) and everyone makes mistakes

  C. mistakes and failures make up our lif

  D. human beings make mistakes easily

2. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 2?

  A. Try to reach 50 points.

  B. Never stop trying in your life.

  C. Award yourself for your success

  D. Don’t be afraid of missing your points.

3. The author proves his idea in Paragraph 3 through_________.

  A. exampes  B. numbers   C. experiments   D. stories

4. The underlined word “ despondent ” in the last paragraph means________.

  A. frightened  B. disappointed  C. surprised  D. excited
