Many have sought a variety of sources for their feelings of happiness. Some have put their heart and effort into their work. Too many have turned to drugs and alcohol. Most of their efforts have a root in one common fact: people are looking for a lasting source of happiness.Unfortunately, I believe that happiness escapes many because they misunderstand the process and journey of finding it. I have heard many people say, “Ill be happy when I get my new promotion,” or “Ill be happy when I lose that extra 20 pounds.” The list goes on and on.This thinking is dangerous because it presupposes (預(yù)料) that happiness is a “response” to having, being or doing something. In life, we all experience stimulus (刺激) and response. Stimulus is when a dog barks at you and bares his teeth. Response is when you prepare to run. Today, some people think that an expensive car is a stimulus. Happiness is a response. A great paying job is a stimulus. Happiness is a response. A loving relationship is a stimulus. Happiness is a response. This belief leaves us thinking and feeling; “Ill be happy when” It has been my finding that actually the opposite is true. I believe that happiness is a stimulus and response is what life brings to those who are truly happy. When we are happy, we tend to have more success in our work. When we are happy, people want to be around us and enjoy loving relationship. When we are happy, we more naturally take better care of our bodies and enjoy good health. Happiness is NOT a response rather, it is a stimulus.Happiness is not something that happens to us after we get something we want we usually get things we want AFTER we choose to be happy. I have made only one simple rule for my own happiness: Every day above ground is a GOOD day. Therefore, I tend to have a lot of good (and happy) days continually.64. Why does the writer think happiness escapes many people?A. They find happiness in different ways. B. They are working too hard.C. They dont have a good habit.D. They seek happiness in the wrong way.65. What do the underlined words “this thinking” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Misunderstanding of happiness.B. Getting promoted in the job.C. Losing twenty pounds of weight D. Finding ones own happiness. 66. The writer strongly believes that happiness is _.A. a responseB. a stimulusC. a feelingD. your health67. The purpose of writing this passage is to _.A. prove an idea B. coach people C. entertain readers D. tell a story DLisa, a middle-aged woman, went to prepare lunch, leaving her 3-year-old son, Barney, playing by himself in the backyard.All of a sudden, Barneys sharp cry came into the mothers ears, and Lisa rushed into the backyard and found a big snake entwining (糾纏) the little child with its body and trying to swallow (吞下) the boy. Lisa was terrified and quite angry. She made up her mind to save her son from the snakes mouth.It was a fearless mothers love that made Lisa forget what she faced. She took up an old hatchet (斧頭) from the ground and struck the snake with all her strength.One.two. With the hatchet, Lisa hit the snake again and again, but she felt as if she were striking a mass of solid rubber. The little boys voice and breath were getting weaker and weaker. Lisas heart was broken and she nearly went mad.Suddenly Lisa put aside the hatchet and threw herself on to the snake, opened her mouth and bit into its back, as if tearing a tough steak (牛排). Lisa was really mad.A small piece of flesh was bitten off. Lisa picked up the hatchet again and hit at the wound in the snakes back madly and savagely.Stinking blood was spraying out of the snakes body. The snake was so badly wounded that it let go of Barney and moved back into the forest. It had never imagined that human beings had such terrible, sharp teeth. Halfway home, the snake died.68.
