In a research, it was found that only four out of every five employees were happy at work. Surprisingly, it wasn’t the salary or the love for the work that made people happy. In stead friendly, supportive colleagues and a good manager have been found to be the primary causes of happiness at work. So how do you keep your spirits up and develop a sense of joy on the job? Here is some advice.

Happiness is a state of mind, and though not many people realize it, staying happy at work is totally based on a positive attitude towards your job. Concentrating(集中注意力) on the bright side of the work rather than keeping talking about what makes you unhappy is the basic key to happiness.

Challenge yourself and take charge of your own growth professionally. Boredom is one of the primary reasons that cause people to change jobs. To avoid feeling bored, you can find new challenges and it’s a great feeling to take control over what you do and see a task through.

Complete our tasks, however disagreeable or tough they might be. This gives you an individual(单个的，特别的) sense of achievement and encourages you to work towards your goals in future. Also keep learning and gaining new insights while at work.

Sitting and staring at your screen all day long isn’t going to help you. Instead take breaks and go outside for some time. They don’t necessarily have to be long breaks but staying out for a few minutes to feel the gentle wind can keep you happy. Eat your lunch out side or walk for a few minutes during that hour, which helps you stay happy at work.

Far from a Family Christmas
My Air Force room in Florida was   36  and quiet—I was alone．My five roommates were gone for the holidays; I had chosen to    37  behind in the camp．Being young and far from my home, I felt   38  ．My room was comfortable enough,   39  I hadn’t realized until then what made it so—the   40  of others walking, joking or just lying on their beds．
I was not able to sleep．I was    41  of being on my own—in fact, preferred it at times—but tonight was   42  ．Tossing and turning in the darkened room gave no   43  ．The last sign of daylight had disappeared,   44  my inner depression．  45  , the glow of Christmas lights on the tall pines would only   46  me of my great misery.
Suddenly, I heard weak sound of men   47  to sing．Yes, the voices grew louder and came my way．I  48  still, enjoying the sound.
In the corridor(通道，走廊)   49  my room, voices came near enough for me to hear Christmas carols（颂歌） being   50  ．Suddenly, there, four airmen, identities unknown, were slightly unsteadied by holiday   51  ．The first held a Coke bottle with a lit candle   52  its top．The others formed a dancing line behind him.
  53  I was in the room, with joyful faces in the flickering(摇曳的) light, they sang me several carols, wished me a   54  and left as fast as they had arrived.
I slept soundly soon after, burying my face in my pillow,   55  that someone had cared.

One night recently, I was driving down a two-lane highway at about 60 miles an hour. A car approached from the  36  direction at about the same speed. As we  37  each other, I caught the other driver’s eye for only a second.  I wondered whether he might be  38  , as I was, how dependent we were on each other at that moment. I was relying on him not to fall  39  , not to be put off by a phone conversation, not to cross over into my lane and bring my life to a sudden  40 . Though we had  41  spoken a word to each other, he relied on me in just the same way.

    Multiplied a million times over, I believe that is the way the world  42 . At some   43  , we all depend upon one another. Sometimes that dependence requires us  44  not to do something like crossing over the double yellow line. And sometimes it requires us to act  45  , with friends or even with  46  .

    As technology  47  our world, the need increases for cooperative action among nations. In 2003, doctors in five nations were quickly organized to identify the SARS virus, which  48  thousands of lives. The threat of international terrorism has shown itself to be a  49  problem, one requiring coordinated action by police and intelligence forces across the world’ We must recognize that our fates are not ours   50  to control.

    In my own life, I’ve put great stock in  51  responsibility.  52  , as the years have passed, I’ve also come to believe that there are moments when one must rely upon the good faith and judgment of  53  . So, while each of us faces the case of driving alone down a  54  road, what we must learn is that the approaching light may not be a threat, but a shared moment of  55  .

Li Lu’ou thought he did the right thing by calling 110 when he saw his two classmates in trouble on the corner of a dark street.

Li and his classmates from NO.2 Middle School Affiliated to Beijing Normal University spent this year’s Valentine’s Day selling roses on the street.As night approached，they cycled back with over 200 yuan in their pockets.

Suddenly，a gang of robbers jumped out at them.The five robbers were tall and strong，so Li ran away to call the police.He thought it would be the most practical thing to do and he was right.His classmates returned safe and sound.

So，what would you have done in Li’s situation？Would you have got off your bike and fought the robbers to rescue your friends?

A new Beijing student code does not encourage you to risk your life to help them.

The new code was introduced to more than 1.7 million primary and middle school students in the city at the start of the new term.

It has cut words which might encourage youngsters to risk their lives for others dangerous situations.Gone are the old calls，which had been in place since 1987，for students to“fight criminals courageously”and “sacrifice themselves to save others”．

Children’s heroic acts usually left them injured or even dead because they failed to fully foresee the dangers of their actions.

A well­known example was Lai Ning，who was listed among the “top 10 model young pioneers” in 1989 after he lost his life trying to put out a fire at the age of 14.

The deaths connected to teenagers’“heroic acts” started a nation­wide debate about the protection of youngsters.

Wei Lusheng，a parent in Beijing，said schools must first teach children how to protect themselves，before learning from heroes.

But educators thought the spirit of courage should not be thrown away in the new student code.

“Getting rid of the words‘fight criminals courageously’do not mean we deny the spirit of‘fearlessness’and ‘readiness’to help others.”said Li Jing，an official in Beijing.“But，we should be more rational about the spirit of sacrifice.”

Li Lu’ou agreed.“Cherishing life is no reason to be a coward，” he said.“but you need make sure you are able to offer help.For example，it would cause more trouble if I jumped into water to rescue someone drowning，but didn’t know how to swim.In that situation it’s better to call the police or an adult.”

41．Which is true about Li and his classmates?

A．They bought roses for each other on Valentine’s Day.

B．They called 110 immediately when they were held up by a gang of robbers.

C．Li risked his life for his classmates in the dangerous situation.

D．Instead of fighting the robbers Li thought it right for him to call the police.

42．The new student code was introduced in Beijing because______.

A．students are facing more danger than they used to

B．the old student code didn’t include the spirit of courage

C．the old one didn’t tell students how to protect themselves while helping others in trouble

D．the old student code encouraged students to sacrifice themselves to save others.

43．Which can be inferred about Lai Ning?

A．He was one of the top 10 model young pioneers in 1987.

B．If it weren’t him，the forest fire would not have been put out.

C．According to the new code，he shouldn’t have risked his life to put out the fire.

D．His deeds did not agree with what the old student code encouraged.

44．The underlined word“deny ”in the second last paragraph means“________”．

A．agree with                                          B．disagree with

C．connect with                                      D．object to

B．The police in Beijing will have a more difficult time in keeping order.

C．The spirit of“fearlessness”and “readiness”help others will be thrown away.

D．Teenagers are advised to make sure they are able to offer help when they want to.

第四部分阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
A
In the summer of 1978 an English farmer was driving his tractor through a field of wheat when he discovered that some of his wheat was lying flat on the ground. The flattened(变平的) wheat formed a circle about six meters across. Around this circle were four smaller circles of flattened wheat. The five circles were in a formation(构造) like five dots （点）. During the following years, farmers in England found the strange circles in their fields more and more often.
The circles are called “crop circles” because they appear in the fields of grain—usually wheat or corn. The grain in the circles lies flat on the ground but is never broken; it continues to grow, and farmers can later harvest it .Farmers always discover the crop circles in the morning, so the circles probably form at night. They appear only in the months from May to September.
At first, people thought that the circles were a hoax. Probably young people were making them as a joke ,or farmers were making them to attract tourists .To prove that the circles were a hoax, people tried to make circles exactly like the ones that farmers had found. They couldn’t do it .They couldn’t enter a field of grain without leaving tracks, and they couldn’t flatten the grain without breaking it.
Many people believe that beings from outer space are making the circles to communicate（交流）with us from far away and that the crop circles are messages from them.
Scientists who have studied the crop circles suggested several possibilities. Some scientists say that a downward rush of wind leads to the formation of the circles—the same downward rush of air that sometimes causes an airplane to crash（坠毁）.Other scientists say that forces within the earth cause the circles to appear. There is one problem with all these scientific explanations: crop circles often appear in formations, like the five-dot formation. It is hard to believe that any natural force could form those.
61. In the summer of 1978 , an English farmer discovered in his field that______.      
A．some of his wheat had been damaged
B．his grain was growing up in circles
C．his grain was moved into several circles
D．some of his wheat had fallen onto the ground
62. According to the text, the underlined part “hoax” (line 1, para.3 ) probably means       .
A．an action made to fool people
B．a special way to plant crops
C．a research on the force of winds
D．an experiment for the protection of crops
63. Which of the following may prove that the crop circles are not made by man？
A．The farmers couldn’t step out of the field.
B．The farmers couldn’t make the circles round.
C．The farmers couldn’t leave without footprints.
D．The farmers couldn’t keep the wheat straight up.
64. That the crop circles are made by       is probably true.
A．air movement                               B．airplane crashes
C．new farming techniques                 D．unknown flying objects
