    14．It is an agreed fact that all the creatures want happiness and are afraid of pain and grief （悲伤）．The question，however，is"what is real happiness？"What really is called happiness？The desire for happiness has no meaning without un derstanding the real nature of happiness．
        Some thinkers say，"Happiness does not lie in objects of enjoyment； happiness or unhappiness lies in imagination．"To prove their belief，they give examples like the following one：A man has two-storey house； on the right is a five-storey building and on the left a cottage．When he sees right，he feels unhappy and when he sees left he feels happy．As such happiness does not lie in possession of sensory objects，but in imagination．They advise people to look towards those who are poorer than you and be happy．If you look towards people having more wealth and possessions，you'll always be unhappy．
        It is unreasonable to hold this point of view．It is unkind to regard one happy by imagining that one is better than the poor and the unhappy．"If you want to be happy，look towards the poor"．This attitude satisfies the sense of pride of possessions，but this can never be called happiness．Unless we really find where happiness lies，we can not really be happy．
        Some ask people to do this and do that and say，"This way your desires would be satisfied．You would get the desired objects and become happy．"People holding these views regard happiness as satisfaction of desires．But it is not possible to satisfy one's desires because there are countless desires of countless people and the material things are limited．Then new desires arise as soon as the previous ones are satisfied．Therefore，desires，which are changing all the time，can never be satisfied．
        Happiness，in fact，is a condition that must be prepared for，cultivated （培养），and defended privately by each person．People who learn to control inner experience will be able to determine the quality of their lives and come to being happy．Happiness lies in the distribution of easiness among others．Happiness stands for forgiveness and justice．Happiness is the name of struggle and courage．Happiness may be founded in seeking of true knowledge and rule of wisdom．Happiness may be shared in service and duty．This life is combination of joy and sorrow，and honest efforts should be done to make this life journey full of happiness，love，peace and harmony．
    66．According to t he text，if you think happiness lies in imagination，you'll try to achieve happiness byA．
    A．looking towards those with fewer possessions
    B．looking towards people having more wealth
    C．imagining how rich you will be in the future

    C．there isn't enough money to meet people's needs

    68．In the author's opinion，happinessD．
    A．can be achieved easily by earning money
    B．must belong to those with rich knowledge
    C．can be gained by setting small goals

    3．How to Keep a Relationship Healthy and Strong
    Are you new to experiencing relationships？Well，let me give you advice on having a healthy and possibly long-term relationship．
    （31）BDo not hide things from them，do not lie．Don't be afraid to say things that aren't very flattering about yourself．Getting them to trust you is the most important element in any relationship．If there's no trust，there's nothing there．So please be honest and they'll learn to open up to you．
    Make sure you give them respect．Now respect isn't just simply treating her or him nicely．There's a lot more to it．You have to learn to adjust to their liking．（32）FDon't just think about yourself，think about what your partner needs out of it as well．

    Make sure you have a good sense of humor with them．Laughter is the key to happiness．Laugh a lot with them，joke with them．Laughter may seem silly，but it's the secret to a lot in life．It will keep the sparks alive．（34）D
    Make sure the communication is good．This goes along with trust，but always communicate how you feel，even if it's something that upsets you．Instead of screaming，talk to them．（35）GIt's important to communicate this to them，not keep it bottled up．

    A．Show them your personality．
    B．Be an honest person with them．
    C．Make sure you are reliable to your partner．
    D．Laughter keeps the relationship strong and lasting．
    E．Don't start to neglect them and make them feel unwanted．
    F．Basically，learn to study your partners'moods，wants and needs．
    G．If they did something that made you unhappy，tell them about it in a respectful manner．

    （36）A
    My dad always tells me that if one doesn't respect money，it will never respect you．Hence，it's important that you keep a record of your daily expenses．Make it a habit to write down all that you have spent．And when you find out the total expenses at the end of the month，you will realize what you have spent more money in doing．（37）F
    Open a savings account．

    Do not carry much cash．
    Do you have the habit of not leaving a store without buying anything？The only way to stop that is carrying less money around with you．Go to the store with the minimum amount of money，which will not even help you buy a drink．（39）B
    Save the changes．
    Save the changes that you get back．If you have gone to a shop to buy something and get back some changes，then do not spend them．（40）CAnd you'll be surprised at the huge amount of money after days．
    Follow these tips above，and thus you can save a lot of money．And surely，they'll help you to be more responsible in your life．

    A．Keep a record of your daily expenses．

    19．You might think that"global warming"means nothing more than a rise in the world's temperature．But rising sea levels caused by it have resulted in the first escape of an island nation-the citizens of Tuvalu will have to leave their homeland．
    During the 20th century，sea level rose 8-12 inches．As a result．Tuvalu has experienced lowland flooding of salt water which has polluted the country's drinking water．
    Paani Laupepa，a Tuvaluan government official，reported to the Earth Policy Institute that the nation suffered an unusually high number of fierce storms in the past ten years．Many scientists connect higher surface water temperatures resulting from global warming to greater and more damaging storms．
    Laupepa expressed dissatisfaction with the United States for refusing to sign the Kyoto Protocol（京都协议书），an international agreement calling for industrialized nations to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions，which are a main cause of global warming．"By refusing to sign the agreement，the US has effectively taken away the freedom of future generations of Tuvaluans to live where their forefathers have lived for thousands of years，"Laupepa told the BBC．
    Tuvalu has asked Australia and New Zealand to allow the gradual move of its people to both countries．
    Tuvalu is not the only country that is affected by rising sea levels．Maumoon Gayoon，president of the Maldives，told the United Nations that global warming has made his country of 311，000 an"endangered nation"．
    29．The text is mainly aboutB．
    A．rapid changes in earth's temperature

    6．It's given us robot cars and internet-enabled glasses-but when it came to creating a"Street View"of a desert，Google hit on a low-tech solution．It hired a camel．
    The beast has become the first animal to carry Google's Trekker camera，which is typically lifted up by humans to capture（捕捉）360-degree pictures of destinations inaccessible to its Street View cars．
    Google spokeswoman Monica Baz says the camel，reportedly named Faffia，was an appropriate way of documenting the beautiful moving sands of Abu Dhabi's Liwas Oasis，a 100kilometer-wide（62-mile）scenic desert，southeast of the city of Abu Dhabi．
    "With every environment and every location，we try to customize the capture and how we do it for that part of the environment，"she told The National newspaper．
    "In the case of Liwa we made it in a way so that it goes on a camel so that it can capture pictures in the best，most authentic and least damaging way，"Baz said．
    Street View Treks have previously explored sites including the Grand Canyon，Mount Everest，the Eiffel Tower，the Egyptian pyramids and buildings of temples around Angkor Wat in Cambodia．There's even a subaquatic Trek of waters around the Galapagos islands．
    Of course，while the camel can only be seen in shadow on the images it captured，Google's Street View cars have witnessed plenty of other very strange sights．Earlier this year one clocked what appeared to be the scene of a murder on the streets of Edinburgh．It later turned out to be a trick staged by auto mechanics who'd spotted the car on its approach．Another hoax was about a woman pretending to give birth on a roadside．The service，which began in 2007，has also hosted more amazing sights such as a bare guy climbing out the trunk（后备箱） of a car and a man with the head of a horse．

    5．According to the text，RaffiaD．
    A．Was led by Street View cars
    B．Measured the size of a desert
    C．Documented the city of Abu Dhabi with a camera
    D．Carried a camera to capture the pictures of the desert
    6．What does the underlined word"clocked"in the last paragraph probably mean？B
    A．Timed．        B．Recorded．
    C．Reported．     D．Approached．
    7．What is the author's attitude towards Street View Treks？A
    A．Objective．    B．Uncaring．
    C．Doubtful．     D．Favorable．
    8．Which of the following can be the best title for the text？C
    A．New Street View Treks to Capture Pictures
    B．Amazing Sights from Street View
    C．Google Hired Camel for Desert Street View
    D．Google Designed New Street View Cars for the Desert．
