举一反三
Life is full of happiness and bitters. Do you choose to live a happy life or a bittery one?
In my opinion, happiness is for everyone. You don’t need to care about those who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and lots of money and so on. Why? Because those who have big house may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads at their free time.
In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you; when you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health; when you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you; when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are your happiness. If you notice them, you can see that happiness is always around you.
Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy, because you have something else that can’t be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have bad luck. As the saying goes, life is like a revolving (旋转) door. When it closes, it also opens. If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person.
小题1:Happiness is for          
A.those who have large and beautiful houses
B.those who have cars
C.those who have lots of money
D.all people
小题2:When you do something wrong,          .

A.When you get success, your friends will be very proud of you.
B.You can get help from others when you make mistakes.
C.You can still be a happy person even if you have little money.
D.All of the above..

A.money always brings happiness

C.everything can be bought with money

As they entered the cool, shadowy woods, they began to search for a suitable camping spot.

We’re lost, aren’t we?” complained Peter. Paul had to admit that he didn’t know where they were.       , they were a long distance from where they were supposed to be. They were not even sure of where they had set up their camp. They set in         for a few minutes until Peter had a bright idea. “Why don’t we look for clues(线索) the way trackers do in the movies? We weren’t careful about how we walked, so I’m sure we would have left behindsome broken tree branches and leaves. ”

I was telling my boy Sonny the story of the hare and the tortoise. At the end I said, “Son, remember: Be slow and steady, and that will win the race. Don’t you think there’s something to learn from the tortoise?”
Sonny opened his eyes wide, “Do you mean next time when I’m entering for the 60-metre race I should wish that Billy, Tony and Sandy would all fall asleep halfway?”
I was shocked, “But the tortoise didn’t wish that the hare would fall asleep!”
“He must wish that already,” Sonny said, “Otherwise how could he be so foolish as to race with the hare? He knew very well the hare ran a hundred times faster than he himself did.”
“He didn’t have such a wish,” I insisted. “He won the race by pushing on steadily.”
Sonny thought a while. “That’s a lie,” he said. “He won it because he was lucky. If the hare didn’t happen to fall asleep, the tortoise would never win the race. He could be as steady as you like, or a hundred times steadier, but he’d never win the race. That’s for sure.”
I gave up. Today’s children are not like what we used to be. They’re just hopeless.

Mark Twain is someone Americans are taught to love. Older relatives, English teachers and the media always praise (表扬) him. But when you actually take the time to read The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, you find that his work is more wonderful than you could ever imagine.
The novel describes a young boy named Tom Sawyer growing up in a small town along the Mississippi River. He explores the countryside on a riverboat with his friends, falls in love with girls, starts secret clubs and searches for treasure. Twain’s idea of childhood is magical – a time of imagination, wonder and, of course, adventure.
More importantly, through the eyes of Tom Sawyer, Twain cleverly makes fun of US culture. For example, Tom hates going to church, and Twain uses scenes of Tom there to mock religion and its old traditions.
Twain’s writing is full of these kinds of critical (批判的) points about culture and politics. That’s why he is so loved in the US – he wasn’t afraid to state his opinions, and he did so clearly.
He also believed strongly in women’s right to vote in elections and gave a famous speech on the subject, called “Votes for Women”, in 1901.
“Tom was a great hero once more – the pet of the old, the envy of the young,” Twain writes in Tom Sawyer. But he could just as well be describing himself.

小题1:According to the writer, after reading The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, you are likely to think__________.
A.it’s not worth all the praise
B.it’s as wonderful as you imagined
C.it’s better to read it with teachers
D.it’s even better than you imagined
小题2:What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?
A.A brief description of the novel.
B.Where Twain’s idea of childhood comes from.
C.How naughty and adventurous Tom Sawyer is.
D.What makes Tom Sawyer’s adventures so wonderful.
小题3:What does the underlined word “mock” mean?
A.make changes to B.make fun of
C.give reasons for D.give examples of
小题4:Why is Twain so loved in the US according to the article?
A.He supported women’s right to vote.
B.He wrote bad things about US wars abroad.
C.He criticized American culture and society clearly and cleverly.
D.He showed readers a magical childhood that everyone would love.
