You may like the lessons or hate them, but you have designed them as part of your curriculum.Why are you here? What is your purpose? Humans have sought to discover the meaning of life for a very long time. What we and our ancestors overlooked, however, is there is no answer. The meaning of life is different for every individual.Each person has his or her own purpose and distinct path, unique and separate from anyone else’s. As you travel your life path, you will be presented with numerous lessons that you will need to learn in order to fulfill that purpose. The lessons you are presented with are specific to you; learning these lessons is a key to discovering and fulfilling the meaning and connection of your own life.As you travel through your lifetime, you may encounter challenging lessons that others don’t have to face, while others spend years struggling with challenges that you don’t need to deal with. You may never know why you are blessed with a wonderful marriage, while your friends suffer through bitter arguments and painful divorces, just as you cannot be sure why you struggle financially while your peers enjoy abundance. The only thing you can count on for certain is that you specifically need to learn; whether you choose to learn them or not is entirely up to you.The challenge here, therefore, is to align(与……保持一致)yourself with your own unique path by learning individual lessons. This is one of the most difficult challenges you will be faced with in your lifetime, as sometimes your path will be completely different from others. But, remember, don’t compare your path to the people around you and focus on the difference between their lessons and yours. You need to remember that you will only be faced with lessons that you are capable of learning and are specific to your own growth.Our sense of fairness is the expectation of equity—the assumption that all things are equal and that justice will always prevail. Life is not, in fact, fair, and you may indeed have a more difficult life path than others around you, deserved or not. Every one’s circumstances are unique, and everyone needs to handle his or her own circumstances differently. If you want to move toward calm, you will be required to move out the comparing phrase of “it’s not fair”. Focusing on the unfairness of circumstances keeps you comparing yourself with others rather than appreciating your own special uniqueness. You miss out on learning your individual lessons by distractingyourself with feeling of bitterness and anger.1. According to the passage, how can t he meaning of your life be realized?A. Having the same opinions as others.B. Taking the distinct path from others.C. Learning the lessons presented to you.D. Doing the different things from others.2. From the passage we can conclude .A. everyone has his own track to followB. the same thing usually happens to the peersC. a painful divorce must lie in financial problemsD. a wealthy man must have a wonderful marriage3. In your lifetime, the lessons you are faced with .A. are beyond your powerB. keep you from growthC. limit your developmentD. help you to achieve success4. Which of the following is TRUE?A. All things are equal and justice will always prevail.B. You should learn to appreciate your specific uniqueness.C. One has to fix his mind on unfairness of circumstances.D. The teachers have designed the lessons as part of your curriculum in the life school.5. Life is called a full-time school becaus e .A. it is full of all lessons to learnB. you have plenty of time to learn lessonsC. you meet with specific lessons every dayD. there are so many subjects for you to choose fromBChinese famous actor Zhang Guoli went on an extreme diet(节食)tobette r fit into his new part in“Jian Guo Da Ye”, a big film celebratingthe 60th anniversary of the People’s Republic of China.The television-film begins at the end of World War Ⅱand is based on real events tha t took place during the years leading up to t he founding of the People’s Republic of China in 1949. It tells mainly of the birth of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference(CPPCC), the country’s top political advisory body.Zhang Guoli, famous for a number of ancient emperor parts, played the Kuomintang(KMT)leader Chiang Kai-shek. Zhang was reported to have reduced(减少, 降低)his food intake and eaten only one meal each day, to better look like this historical figure.The result was obvious and he lost 5. 5 kg in half a month.Sina. com reported, Zhang first refused to play the part for the big difference between his image(形象)and Chiang Kai-shek.Despite Zhang’s wavering confidence(信心)at the beginning, his friends believed that he could do it. Vivian Wu Junmei, a Chinese actress who became internationally known for her part in the Oscar-winning film “The Last Emperor”, said Zhang Guoli not only looks like Chiang in appearance but also in spirit.“I think what really makes Zhang Guoli successful is not his look but the resemblance(相似)in spirit. The way he deals with some details in his acting is very attractive. ”Vivia n Wu added she could not think of anyone else who could play the part better.Vivian Wu, also the star of “The Soong Sisters”, played a much more mature Madame Chiang Kai-shek(Mayling Soong)during the period of 1945~1949.6. The purpose of making the film “Jian Guo Da Ye” is .A. to make more money and gain more awardsB. to celebrate the 60th anniversary of PRCC. to pro vide more entertainments and amusementsD. to better the image of the movies7. The period set in the film is .A. from the end o f World WarⅠ to the foundation of PRCB. from the end of World War Ⅱ to the foundation of PRCC. from the start of Anti-Japanese War to the foundation of PRCD. from the start of the Liberation War to the foundation of PRC8. The reason why Zhang Guoli went on a d iet was that .A. he wanted to make his new part more cool and attractiveB. he wanted to win more votes if the film went to the OscarC. he wanted to better look like the historical figureD. he wanted to replace the part of Vivian Wu in the film9.

Little did John and Jane know, their son Samuel would one day be known as Mark Twain—America’s mostfamous literary(文学)icon(偶像).Samuel’s father was a judge, and he built a two-story framehouse at 206 Hill Street in 1844. As a child, Samuel was kept indoorsbecause of poor health. However, at the age of nine, he seemed torecover from his ailments and then attended a private school inHannibal.When Samuel was 12, his father died of pneumonia(肺炎), and at 13, Samuel left school to become a printer’s apprentice(学徒). After two short years, he joined his brother Orion’s newspaper as a printer and an editorial assistant. It was there that young Samuel found he enjoyed writing.At 17, he left Hannibal f or a printer’s job in St. Louis. While in St. Louis, Samuel became a river pilot’s apprentice. He became a licensed river pilot in 1858. Samuel’s pen name, Mark Twain, comes from his days as a river pilot. It is a river term which means, 12 feet when the depth of water for a boat is being measured. “Mark Twain” means that is safe to navigate(航行).In 1861, Samuel began working as a newspaper reporter for several newspapers all over the United States. In 1870, he married Olivia Langdon.Mark Twain began to gain fame when his story, The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County appeared in The New York Saturday Press on November 18, 1865. Mark Twain’s first book, The Innocents Abroad, was published in 1869, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer in 1876, and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn in 1885. He wrote 28 books and numerous short stories, letters and other articles.Mark Twain passed away on April 21, 1910, but has a following still today.
