Did you know that there are gifts that will multiply your happiness when you give them away? Here are five of those gifts. Giving these gifts will allow you to share with others your most unique treasure: your real self. Each gift will return to you many times.

1. Share appreciation

Tell someone how much you appreciate the faith they've shown in you. Thank them sincerely for being part of your life. Tell them how much they are needed.

Feeling appreciated is one of the most important needs that people have. When you share with someone your appreciation and gratitude, they will not forget you. Appreciation will return to you many times.

2. Share time

Balance your time expenditures (耗费)so you can spend time with the people that you love. Support local organizations by sharing your special talents. Volunteer time for projects that benefit others in your community, country, and world.

When we slow down and observe our thoughts closely, we will sometimes uncover gifts and talents we didn't know we had. Sharing time and talents can result in discoveries that bring happiness beyond measure.

3. Share knowledge and ideas

Tell someone about a great book that you read so they can benefit from it too. Teach a new concept or idea that you've learned.

One of the best ways to strengthen new concepts in your mind is to share them with others. The more often you share what you've learned, the stronger that information will become in your memory. Sharing knowledge also provides solutions to problems. The more knowledge we share, the more knowledge we receive in return.

4. Share friendship

Acknowledge someone's strengths. Let them know that you are willing to be there when they need you. Visit someone you haven't seen for a long time. Telephone friends or relatives who live far away. Introduce two friends who don't know each other.

Bringing one individual into another's life can result in tremendous changes for both people, and for you. We succeed with the help of others. People grow by growing together. If you'd like to have many friends, then share friendship with others generously.

5. Share kindness

Perform a random act of kindness for someone: a smile, compliment, or a favor just for fun. These will multiply and spread very rapidly.

There is a powerful quote by Stephen Jay Gould who said, “The center of human nature is rooted in ten thousand ordinary acts of kindness that define our days.” Kindness is priceless. The love, kindnesses, and value we have given authentically to others will be our remaining treasures at the end of life.

Think about this statement by Norman MacEwan: “Happiness is not so much in having as sharing. We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.”

What is the best title of this passage?

    A. We want to share.      B. Give your presents away. 

    C. We make a life by giving.      D. Don’t be mean to give.

What can we learn from Stephen Jay Gould’s words?

    A. We all come from a world which is in a harmonious atmosphere.

    B. Everybody’s deep heart is filled with kindness at first, which decides our present life.

    C. Kindness is the most important thing in our daily life.

    D. We need kindness all the time.

For those who are living a life on the go, what suggestion will the writer probably give to them?

    A. Tell the people around you how much you love them.

    B. No one is an isolated island. We succeed with the help of others

    C. The more knowledge we share, the more knowledge we receive in return.

    D. Slow down and enjoy the life, which may bring you a brand new world with happiness.

Where can you probably find this passage?

    A. Magazines       B. Newspapers C. Guide books     D. Scientific reports

Everyone knows you must exercise regularly to keep good health. Indeed, staying physically fit is a big part of our culture. we consider(or rightly so)that healthy people are attractive people. Since most of us want to be attractive, there is no shortage of exercise clubs, training videos, magazines and books offering to help us stay physically fit.   

Unfortunately, however, our culture doesn’t place the same emphasis on mental fitness. Although we tend to like men and women with strong, healthy-looking bodies, we don’t have the same degree of respect or attraction for smart, educated, mentally healthy people. This is a pity, because there are great rewards for people who have developed the ability to think well.   

If your mind is well trained and flexible, you will be able to understand a great deal of what happens around you. And if you are also well educated --- that is, if you understand basic science, mathematics, music, art, literature, history and so on --- you will find it much easier to make good decisions throughout your life. Over the long run, this leads to a sense of control over your destiny and a much better life than otherwise.   

People who are poorly educated or who don’t think well --- that is, people who are not mentally fit --- see things differently. Their world is controlled by mysterious, often malevolent(恶意的)forces. Such people live within a system they will never master, forced to follow rules they will never understand. Although it may not be obvious, most spend their lives being manipulated(控制)by others. They are told what to do, what to think, how to spend their money, and what they should and should not aspire(渴望)to in life.   

In my opinion, if you want to live well, you must be able to use your mind well. For this reason, I want you to be able to concentrate, to solve problems, to understand complex ideas, and to think clearly and quickly. Such skills will make it easier for you to make informed decisions, understand current events, choose good friends, manage your money well, make wise lone-term decisions and appreciate music, art and literature.

The key to developing such skills is to enjoy learning, and to have the ability and motivation to teach yourself.

1.The writer of the passage feel disappointed that ____.

      A.too little has been done to help people to keep physically fit

      B.too much has been done to help people to keep physically fit

      C.mentally healthy people are not as popular as physically healthy people

      D.physically healthy people are not as popular as mentally healthy people

2.The underlined word “this” in the 3rd paragraph means ____.

      A.the understanding of a great deal of what goes on around you

      B.the understanding of basic science and mathematics

      C.good training in body and mind

      D.being able to make good decisions in life

3.The writer of this passage thinks those who are not mentally fit ____.

      A.live a poor and mysterious life             B.can’t control over their life

      C.often do what others do                    D.enjoy being fooled and ruled

4.The best title of the passage will most probably be ____.

      A.Train Your Body                              B.Train Your Mind 

      C.Make Informed Decisions                     D.Think Hard and Work Hard
