Do you want to live with a strong sense of peacefulness,happiness,goodness,and self?respect?The collection of happiness actions broadly categorized (把……归类) as “honor” help you create this life of good feelings.

Here’s an example to show how honorable actions create happiness.

Say a store clerk fails to charge us for an item.If we keep silent,and profit from the clerk’s mistake,we would drive home with a sense of sneaky (暗中的) excitement.Later we might tell our family or friends about our good fortune.On the other hand,if we tell the clerk about the uncharged item,the clerk would be grateful and thank us for our honesty.We would leave the store with a quiet sense of honor that we might never share with another soul.

Then,what is it to do with our sense of happiness?

In the first case,where we don’t tell the clerk,a couple of things would happen.Deep down inside we would know ourselves as a type of thief.In the process,we would lose some peace of mind and self?respect.We would also demonstrate that we cannot be trusted,since we advertise our dishonor by telling our family and friends.We damage our own reputations by telling others.In contrast,bringing_the_error_to_the__clerk’s__attention causes different things to happen.Immediately the clerk knows us to be honorable.Upon leaving the store,we feel honorable and our self?respect is increased.Whenever we take honorable actions we gain the deep internal rewards of goodness and a sense of nobility.

There is a beautiful positive cycle that is created by living a life of honorable actions.Honorable thoughts lead to honorable actions.Honorable actions lead us to a happier existence.And it’s easy to think and act honorably again when we’re happy.While the positive cycle can be difficult to start,once it’s started,it’s easy to continue.Keeping on doing good deeds brings us peace of mind,which is important for our happiness.

1.According to the passage,the positive action in the example contributes to our________.

A.self?respect  B.financial rewards

C.advertising ability D.friendly relationship

2.The author thinks that keeping silent about the uncharged item is equal to________.

A.lying  B.stealing

C.cheating  D.advertising

3.The underlined phrase “bringing the error to the clerk’s attention” means________.

A.telling the truth to the clerk

B.offering advice to the clerk

C.asking the clerk to be more attentive

D.reminding the clerk of the charged items

4.How will we feel if we let the clerk know the mistake?

A.We’ll be very excited.

B.We’ll feel unfortunate.

C.We’ll have a sense of honor.

D.We’ll feel sorry for the clerk.

5.Which of the following can be the best title of this passage?

A.How to Live Truthfully

B.Importance of Peacefulness

C.Ways of Gaining Self?respect

D.Happiness through Honorable Actions

科目:高中英语 来源:2015届江西省高二下学期第一次段考英语试卷(解析版) 题型:阅读理解

When you practice reading with passages shorter than book length, do not try to take in each word separately, one after the other. It is much more difficult to grasp the broad theme of the passage this way, and you will also get the stuck on individual words which may not be absolutely essential to a general understanding of the passage. It is a good idea to skim through the passage very quickly first to get the general idea of each paragraph. Titles, paragraph headings and emphasized words can be a great help in getting this skeleton outline of the passage. It is surprising how many people do not read titles, introductions or paragraph headings. Can you, without looking back, remember the title of this passage and the heading of this paragraph?

Most paragraphs of a passage or chapter have a 'topic sentence' which expresses the central idea. The remaining sentences expand or support that idea. It has been estimated that between 50% and 90% of all expositive(说明的)paragraphs in English have the topic sentence first. Always pay special attention to the first sentence of a paragraph, it is most likely to give you the main idea.

Sometimes, though, the first sentence in the paragraph does not have the feel of 'main idea' sentence. It does not seem to give us enough new information to justify a paragraph. The next most likely place to look for the topic sentence is the last sentence of the paragraph.

Remember that the opening and closing paragraphs of a passage or chapter are particularly important. The opening paragraph suggests the general direction and content of the piece, while the closing paragraph often summarizes the very essence(精髓).

1.It is a good idea to skim through a passage quickly first ____________.

A. at about 315 w.p.m.(words per minute)

B. to get the general idea of each paragraph

C. so that you can take in each work separately

D. to make sure you get to the end at least once

2.The topic sentence of an expository paragraph in English _____________.

A. usually comes in the middle

B. is most likely to be found at the end

C. is most often at the beginning

D. is usually left out in expository writing

3.Most expository paragraphs in English have a clearly defined topic sentence. In such paragraphs the topic sentence comes first ________.

A. in about 5% of cases B in about 80% of cases

C. in about 20% cases D. very rarely

4.Sometimes we know the first sentence is not the topic sentence because ____________.

A. it does not seem to give us enough new information

B. it is not long enough

C. it does not come at the beginning

D. it does not make a complete sentence

5.The closing paragraph of a piece of writing ____________.

A. is not really very important

B. is often unnecessary repetition

C. often comes at the end

D. often summarizes the essence of the passage
