Happy hours are not necessarily happy nor do they last for an hour, but they have bec

ome a part of the ritual (例行公事) of the office worker and businessman.

On weekdays in pubs and bars throughout America, there is the late afternoon happy hour.The time may vary from place to place, but usually it is held from four to seven.After the workday is finished, office workers in larger cities and small towns take a relaxing pause and head off for the nearest bar or pub to be with friends, co-workers and colleagues.Within minutes the pub is filled to capacity with businessmen and secretaries, payroll clerks and stock executives.They gather around the bar and gossip about the intrigues (勾心斗角) of office life or matters more personal.This is their oasis (避风港); the place to free themselves from the day's stress at the office.

At these happy hours, social binding occurs between people who share the same workplace or similar professions.They may gossip about each other or talk about a planned project that has yet to meet a deadline.In this sense, these places become extensions of the workplace and may make up a good portion of one's social life.

These happy hours are those late afternoon chances to relax after work and before returning home.Conversations which may begin quietly and with reserve, rise gradually from a chatter to a roar.The oasis quickly fills up with smoke.Loud laughter may cackle in the air as a way to relieve the tensions of the day.The cheerful mood, heightened by the feeling of relief, competes with a TV broadcasting the latest update of CNN evening news or a sports game already in progress.

Books are to mankind what memory is to the individual. They contain the history of our rac
e, the discoveries we have made, the accumulated knowledge and experience of ages.They picture for us the marvels and beauties of nature, help us out of difficulty, comfort us in sorrow, change hours of tiredness into moments of delight, fill our minds with good ideas and happy thoughts, and lift us out of and above ourselves. And also, books can help transport us to mountains or the seashore, and visit the most beautiful parts of the earth, without fatigue, inconvenience, or expense. In a sense they give us an even more vivid idea than the actual reality. So, precious and priceless are the blessings which the books scatter around our daily paths.We walk, in imagination, with noblest spirits, through the most fascinating regions.

听力原文:The Golden Gate Bridge joins the beautiful city of San Francisco with suburbs to

听力原文: The Golden Gate Bridge joins the beautiful city of San Francisco with suburbs to the north. Each day about one hundred thousand automobiles cross the bridge taking people to and from the city. More than half of them cross the bridge during the morning and evening rush hours when traffic ii so heavy that trip is not pleasant.

Now however there is at least one group of happy commuters. These are the people who travel under the bridge instead of on it. They go to work by boat and enjoy it se much that' most of them say they will never go by car again. The ferry they take is spacious, quiet and comfortable. Commuters can enjoy the sun on deck, In the morning they can have breakfast in the coffee shop. And in the evening they can order a drink in the bar while looking at the beautiful scenery. The trip takes only 30 minutes and is not very costly. But best of all, being on a boat seems to make people friendlier toward each other. There has already been a marriage of two commuters who met on the ferry.

Because the ferry has been so successful, there are plans to use other still larger boats. There is also a proposal for a high speed boat that will make the trip in only 15 minutes. But not everyone is happy about that. A lot of people feel that half an hour is just enough time to relax.

(30)

A.They are delighted because they can enjoy the scenery while driving.

B.They are frightened because traffic accidents are frequents.

C.They are irritated because the bridge is jammed with cars.

D.They are pleased because it saves them much time.

第7题

A proverb allegedly from ancient China was widely spread in the West: "If you want to be h
appy for a few hours, go to get drunk; if you want a lifetime happiness, take up gardening. " The reason for the last option is this: Gardening is not only useful, but it helps you to identify yourself with nature, and thus brings you new joy each day besides improving your health.

A research of a US university that I've read gives a definition of happiness as what makes a person feel comfortably pleased. To put it specifically, happiness is an active state of mind where one thinks one's life is meaningful, satisfactory and comfortable. This should be something lasting rather than transitory.

Lots of people regard it the happiest to be at leisure. But according to a study, it is not a person with plenty of leisure but one at work that feels happy, especially those busy with work having little time for leisure. Happiness does not spell gains one is after but a desire to harvest what one is seeking for. People often do not cherish what they already have but yearn for what they cannot get. That is somewhat like a man indulging in fond dreams of numerous lovers while reluctant to settle down with the woman beside him.

Happiness is a game balancing between two ends—what one has and what one wishes for, e. g. one's dream and the possibility to realize it. The study comes to this conclusion: A happy man is one who aims high but never forgets his actual situation; one who meets challenges that tap his ability and potentiality; one who is proud of his achievements and the recognition given to him. He has self-respect and self-confidence; treasures his own identity and loves freedom. He is sociable and enjoys wide-range communication with others; he is helpful and ready to accept assistance. He knows he is able to endure sufferings and frustrations; he is sensible enough to get fun from daily chores. He is a man capable of love and passion.

According to the passage, gardening can bring lifelong happiness because______.

A.gardening is a profitable business

B.it can strengthen gardener's ability to remake nature

C.gardener can enjoy very happy marriage

D.gardener can build good relationship with nature

第8题

My father was, I am sure, intended by nature to be a cheerful kindly man. Until be was thi
rty-four years old he worked as a farmhand for a man named Thomas Butterworth whose place lay near the town of Bidwell, Ohio. He had a horse of his own, and on Saturday evenings drove into town to spend a few hours in social intercourse with other farmhands. In town he drank several glasses of beer and stood about in Ben Head's saloon—crowded on Saturday evening with visiting farmhands. Songs were sung and glasses thumped on the bar. At ten o'clock father drove home along a lonely country road, made his horse comfortable for the night, and himself went to bed, quite happy in his position in life. He had at that time no notion of trying to rise in the world.

It was in the spring of his thirty-fifth year that father married my mother, then a country school teacher, and in the following spring I came wriggling and crying into the world. Something happened to the two people. They became ambitious. The American idea of getting up in the world took possession of them.

It may have been that mother was responsible. Being a school teacher, she had no doubt read books and magazines. She had, I presume, read of how Garfield, Lincoln, and other Americans rose from poverty to fame and greatness, and as I lay beside her—in the days of her lying-in—she may have dreamed that I would someday rule men and cities. At any rate she induced father to give up his place as farmhand, sell his horse, and embark on an independent enterprise of his own. She was a tall silent woman with a long nose and troubled gray eyes. For herself she wanted nothing. For father and me she was incurably ambitious.

According to the narrator, his father's life used to be______.

A.quite poor

B.quite hard

C.quite happy

D.quite rich

Sleep is important to us because it helps restore organs and tissues in our body. But how much sleep do we actually need?

For most of us, eight hours seems to be about the right amount.

There are actually different 【66】 of sleep. There is a deep sleep and a shallow sleep. In a shallow sleep our body does not get the same kind of rest it gets in a 【67】 sleep, 【68】 after eight hours of a shallow sleep we may still feel tired.
