When I was eleven years old ， God gave me a gift of happiness and I hada carefree childhood in France.One day ， on my way home from school ， a truck ranover me and my legs were cut off. As I lay there bleeding ， I suddenly realized that I might have to live the rest of my life without legs. How depressed I was at that moment! But then I realized that depression won’t get my legs back. So I decided not to waste my life feeling depressed. When my parents arrived at the hospital ， they stood there quietly ， looked so shocked and sad. I told them ，“I’ve already accepted the fact. Now you also have to get used to this.”Ever since then ， I often see my friends getting worried about little things ： The buses comes late ； they get bad grades on the tests and so on. But I just enjoy life.I was lucky to realize that it is a waste of energyto pay attention to what you have lost ， and that thekey to happiness is to take pleasure in what you have. Sounds simple ，doesn’t it? So why are many people unhappy? People often think happiness is based on what they achieve. “My whole life would improve if I had a new car.” But when they get the car and what happens? For a whole week they are walking on air. Then they go right back to be unhappy.Happiness is not a happening ；it’s a state of mind. Even though you have the whole world and you’ll still be unsatisfied. And you have relatively(相对地)little but feel full of joy. Happiness comes from mastering the art of enjoying and taking pleasure in what you already have.1.The word “depressed” most probably means“_____________”.A. sad and disappointed________B. painful and annoyedC. smart and strongD. calm and quiet2. After the accident ，the author didn’t feel depressed anymorebecause_____________.A. the doctors could help him and get his legs backB. he must comfort his parents at that timeC. he knew depression made no difference to himD. he was just a childish and forgettable kid3. In the author’s opinion ，the main cause of most people’s unhappinessis they_____________.A. don’t want to achieve more for future.B. pay so much and get so little.C. always compare with othersD. pay so much attention to what they have lost.4. In paragraph 5 ， when the man gets the car he had expected ，_____________.A. he will choose to walk on foot for a week.B. the car will bring a lasting happiness to him.C. he will find the car is no help for him at all.D. he will go back to be unhappy after a few days.5. The author wants to tell us____________.A. how one person enjoys a life without legs.B. we should forget the loss and the gains in lifeC. happiness is just a state of mindD. our life will be improved if we fight for our dreams18. So many of us expect everything we do to be successful. We look forwardto success to show us our value or to be the top of the group wherever we are. How many times in our schooling did we hope for a high mark? We want it andthen feel like a failure when we don’t achieve what we want. Even when we succeed we still pass that and go onto the next success and then the next. We are not often taught how to face failures.For me ， failure taught me more than success did. Success is of the moment and temporary(暂时的)but failure means we have ever done. It makes me stop and think. It opened my eyes and brain to different possibilities. Failure is just a choice in redoing not in giving up. Experiencing failure，I looked deeper and further.I have a grandson who plays hockey(曲棍球) and as all players do，he went through a slump . So I saw he was unhappy with himself. Then I said to him ，“Why don’tyou think of it differently rather than being unhappy?” And I asked ，“Scoring is your goal ，right?” He answered，“Of course.” “Why aren’t you scoring now? Do you needa readjustment(重新调整)?”All of a sudden he calmed down--he was thinking of what I had just said. So in the next game I saw him trying different things to do better. Later he started scoring. Now when something is wrong ， he takes the time to think it over rather than just keeping the “failure” mode(方式).Look at failure differently. Failure is what gives us power to try a different way of doing things.It teaches us to rethink ， redo ， and then success will come about.Don’t give up but learn to use a different way.1.According to the author，when we succeed we___________ .A. are quite proudB. are usually wild with joyC. usually set up a higher goalD. usually think of our failure over and over2. According to the author，failure___________ .A. is the thing that troubles peopleB. is of the short term or temporaryC. makes us learn more than success doesD. can make him unhappy from time to time3. What does the underlined word “slump” in Paragraph 3 mean?A. Course of winning the game.B. Chance of being well-known.C. Situation where one works hard.D. Time of losing heart or being upset.4. Why did the author’s grandson do better in playing hockey in the end?A. He grew up and learned more skills .B. He thought and tried in a different way.C. He used the skill his grandma taught him.D. He didn’t make a change and kept the “failure” mode.5. Which is the best title for the text?A. Expect Success.____________________B. Face Failures Differently.C. My Grandson and I.____________________D. Keep Failure Mode.19. It is reported that in the near future robots and humans will probablywork together to create jazz. A singing robot is being taught to create jazz with human being in a project.Antonio Chella from Italy is working with a Telenoid robot.To start with ， the Telenoid will be trained to imitatethe movements and simple sounds made by a human singer ，and then connect music with different human emotions.Previous(以前的) robots had the ability to find common connections between things. But Chella suggests that a conscious(有意识的) robot should be able to go a stepfurther and find new connections. The Telenoid is of this kind.“This work raises interesting questions about the connection between consciousness and music creating.” says PhilippePasquier ， a musician needs a physical body.Pasquer argues that the robot musician is faced with abig challenge. “Its software has already been developed andit can imitate The Beatles ， a famous band. However ， what made The Beatles famous were not only their songs buttheir wonderful performance of the songs ，” he says.It is not clear how a robot would perform music a new way. But by imitating humans ， the Telenoid robot could provide some useful information. What is important is that human musicians often listen to and compare music made by others for a long time before creating music of their own. So the Telenoidrobot had better listen to more jazz music first.1.What’s the possible meaning of the underlined “imitate”?A.制造B.编曲C.模仿D.发出声响2. What will the Telenoid robot be taught to do first?A. Communicate with human beingsB. Connect music with human emotionsC. Live and work comfortably with human beingsD. Imitate the movements and simple sounds of a human singer3. In Pasquier’s opinion ， the Telenoid robot_________A. will replace human musicians soon.B. may have trouble performing music.C. will become more popular than The Beatles.D. can find connections between things that humans cannot find4. Which of the following could be the best title of the passage?A. The Telenoid ， future robot musician.B. How to teach robots to perform music.C. The right music the robots should listen to.D. Differences between a human singer and a robot musician.5. In which part of a newspaper do we most probably read this passage?A. ArtsB. EntertainmentC. MedicineD.
