　　Life is difficult.

　　It is a great because once we truly understand and accept it, then life is no longer difficult.

　　Most do not fully see this truth. Instead they complain about their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy. It seems to them that their difficulties represent（代表）a special kind of suffering especially forced upon them or else upon their families, or even their nation.

　　What makes life difficult is that the process（过程）of facing and solving（解决）problems is a painful one. Problems, depending on their nature, cause in us sadness or loneliness or regret or anger or fear. These are uncomfortable feelings, often as painful as any kind of physical pain. And since life causes an endless series of problems, life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joy. Yet, it is in this whole of solving problems that life has its meaning.

　　Problems are the serious test that tells success from failure. When we desire to encourage the growth of the human spirit, we encourage the human ability（能力）to solve problems, just as in school we set problems for our children to solve. It is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learn. As Benjamin Franklin said, “Those things that hurt, instruct.” It is for this reason that wise people learn not to fear but to welcome the pain of problems.

（1）From the passage, it can be inferred（推断）that __________

[　　]

A. every body has problems,

B. we become stronger by facing and solving the problems of life

C. life is difficult because our problems bring us pain.

D. people like to complain about their problems.

（2）The writer probably used just one short sentence in the first paragraph to __________.

[　　]

A. save space

B. persuade readers

C. make readers laugh

D. get readers' attention

（3）The main idea of paragraph 3 is ________.

[　　]

A. most people feel life is easy

B. the writer feels life is easy

C. the writer likes to complain about his problems

D. most people complain about how hard their lives are

（4）According to the passage, we give school children difficult problems to solve in order to _________.

[　　]

A. encourage them to learn

B. teach them to fear the pain of solving problems

C. help them learn to deal with pain

D. teach them how to respect for problems

（5）The saying from Benjamin Franklin “Those things that hurt, instruct.” suggests that ____________.

[　　]

A. we do not learn from experience

B. we do not learn when we are in pain

C. pain teaches us important lessons

D. pain cannot be avoided（避开）

答案：B;D;D;A;C

　　While everyone knows that NBA center Yao Ming will become a father this summer, the big buzz(流言)in China is about whether the baby will be an American．

　　The Shanghai native's personal life is closely followed by his many fans at home, from his 2007 Shanghai wedding to fellow basketball player Ye Li to last month's reports the couple is expecting a baby girl in July．

　　The 2.25-meter star, sidelined this season with a broken left foot, recently returned to the USA with Ye, encouraging speculation that the baby will be born there．

　　BEIJING－After a night of wining and dining with 50 of China's richest people, Warren Buffet and Bill Gates told the journalists on Thursday that the biggest difference between eating with Chinese tycoons(企业界大亨)and Western ones was the food．

　　“I was amazed last night, really, at how similar the questions and discussions and all that were to those in the dinners we had in the U．S．,” said Mr．Buffett．

　　Mr．Buffett and Mr．Gates, two of the best known Westerners here, announced in September, 2010 that they planned to invite 50 wealthy Chinese tycoons to dinner in Beijing to encourage philanthropy(慈善事业)among China's new rich．

　　On Thursday, the two men pronounced the dinner a great success, saying that two-thirds of those invited had shown up, and that more than half of them had offered their own ideas on how Chinese philanthropy should work．

　　The guest list wasn't made public, but the Chinese news media reported that it included Jet Li, the movie star; Niu Gensheng, the founder of a Chinese dairy business; and Pan Shiyi and Zhang Xin, who control the SOHO China real estate(房地产)empire．

　　As with four earlier dinners held in the United States, Mr．Buffett and Mr．Gates said, no one at the Beijing event was asked to donate money or to promise to engage in charity．“Bill and I won't be calling anybody．What happens in China will depend on what the Chinese people feel about a project of this sort,” said Mr．Buffett．

　　China is widely reported to be second only to the United States in the number of dollar billionaires．Mr．Gates and Mr．Buffett said the nation was unique because its wealthy class had arisen almost wholly in the past 30 years, so the philanthropic practices established among European and American dynasties are new here, and open to change．

　　The two said the dinner wasn't a long planned matter, but an offshoot of a trip that Mr．Buffett had already scheduled to Guangdong and Hunan Provinces, where BYD Company, a maker of clean-energy automobiles, has factories．Mr．Buffett's company, Berkshire Hathaway, holds a 10％stake(股金)in the company．

　　But Mr．Gates suggested that their philanthropic trip wasn't yet over．“We may do an event in India,” he said．

(1)

What is the text mainly about?

[　　]

A．

A brief analysis of future philanthropy．

B．

The development of Chinese philanthropy．

C．

An introduction on Mr．Buffett and Mr．Gates' trip in China．

(2)

[　　]

A．

the dinner was quite a success

B．

C．

Chinese tycoons are similar to Western ones

D．

it was pleasing to discuss with Chinese tycoons

(3)

B．

many people have promised to donate money at dinner

Beijing will be the last stop of their philanthropic trip

　　AAAGH! The Generation 90s is coming!

　　Wearing earphones, using complex Net language and constantly text messaging friends, the Gen-90s following the Gen-80s begin to make their world debut(初次登台)．

　　Each generation or age group has its own symbols and lifestyle．Read on and judge for yourselves if you fit the Gen-90s profile(简介)．

　　Earphones

　　These little devices seem to grow on the heads of the Gen-90s．They might lead to MP3, MP4 or MP101 players, giving these young people a plugged-in，cool and perhaps self-addicted look, of course, life is not always music to the ears．

　　Martian language

　　They have created their own code-like online language．It’s a mixture of English, Japanese and Chinese that perhaps only Martians can understand．This is an imaginative generation, though they need to be careful to keep it out of their term papers．

　　Self-Portrait

　　Saying “cheese” to their own digital cameras is routine for this generation．A little bit of narcissism(自恋)never hurts anyone．It helps them reflect a little on their own lives．But be aware of the risks of posting private photos online．

　　Text-messaging

　　They can type their mobile phones as fast as they can speak．This is a generation that respects efficiency．However, oral communication is important and will never go out of style．
