Happiness is for everyone. You don't need to care about those who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or 1.and so on. Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads at their free time.
In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. 2.When you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health; when you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you; When you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct it.3. All these are your happiness. If you notice them, you can see that happiness is always around you.
Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy, because you have something else that can't be bought with money. 4. because you have more chances to challenge yourself. So you cannot always say you are poor and you have bad luck. As the saying goes, life is like a revolving(转) door. When it closes, it also opens.5.
A. When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you.
B. If you take every chance you get, you can be happy and lucky person.
C. those who have nice cars and lots of money.
D. And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too.
E. those who have no houses.
F. When you meet with difficult, you can give them up and be happy.
G. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy.

Swimming and English Learning
Can you swim? Do you swimming? Yes? Well, how can you learn to swim? I think the best way is to go into the water and learn. I’m afraid you’ll never learn to swim just by reading books about swimming or looking at others swimming. It's the same with the English study. We must practice, practice and practice.
Listening and speaking are very important for beginners. The children in English-Speaking countries first listen to others. Then they try to imitate and speak. We can listen to English programs on the radio. You may just understand a few words. It doesn’t matter. Just be relaxed, try to catch every word.
Somebody may be a good listener. But he dare not speak. He’s afraid of making mistakes. You know we sometimes make mistakes when we speak Chinese. Don’t be afraid. We must be brave. If you really want to learn English well, you must try to speak with everyone so long as he knows English. Whether you know him or not is not important when there’s nobody to talk with, you can talk to yourself in English. It’s interesting and also a good way to practice your spoken English. Remember, the more you speak, the fewer mistakes you’ll make.
Reading and writing are more important for senior school students. First we must choose the books we’re interested in. A lot of reading will improve your language sense. This is the most important.
Keep writing English diaries. We can also write English articles. You may even post them to English magazines. Don’t be afraid of failure. Failure is the mother of success.
Easier said than do. Well, let’s do more practice from now on. I’m sure you’ll learn English well in this way.
1.You learn to swim by ______.
A. reading books about it
B. looking at others swimming
C. having lessons on it
D. going into the river and learning
2.We should leant English by ______.
A. listening and speaking
B. reading and writing
C. A and B.
D. swimming
3.What will you do with mistakes when you speak?
A .Don’ t make mistakes.
B. Study hard.
C. Try not to speak English.
D. Don’t be afraid.
4.What’s more important for senior school students?
A. Listening. B. Speaking.
C. Reading and writing. D. Learning.
5.We can listen to English_____, according to the passage.
A. by train B. on the radio

Linda Evans was my best friend—like the sister I never had. We did everything together: piano lessons, movies, swimming, horseback riding.
When I was 13, my family moved away. Linda and I kept in touch through letters, and we saw each other on special time—like my wedding (婚礼) and Linda’s. Soon we were busy with children and moving to new homes, and we wrote less often. One day a card that I sent
came back, stamped “Address (地址) Unknown. ” I had no idea how to find Linda.
Over the years, I missed Linda very much. I wanted to share (分享) happiness of my children and then grandchildren. And I needed to share my sadness when my brother and then mother died. There was an empty place in my heart that only a friend like Linda could fill.
One day I was reading a newspaper when I noticed a photo of a young woman who looked very much like Linda and whose last name was Wagman — Linda’s married name. “There must be thousands of Wagmans,” I thought, but J still wrote to her.
She called as soon as she got my letter. “Mrs Tobin!” she said excitedly, “Linda Evans Wagman is my mother. ”
Minutes later I heard a voice that I knew very much, even after 40 years, laughed and cried and caught up on each other’s lives. Now the empty place in my heart is filled. And there’s one thing that Linda and I know for sure: We won’t lose each other again!

A friend of mine named Paul received an expensive car from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street urchin (顽童) was walking around the shining car. “Is this your car, sir?” he asked.
Paul answered, “Yes, my brother gave it to me for Christmas.” The boy was surprised. “You mean your brother gave it to you and it did cost you nothing? Sir, I wish…” He hesitated (犹豫). Paul thought of course he knew what the boy wanted, but what the boy said surprised him greatly. “I wish,” the boy went on, “that I could be a brother like that.” Paul looked at the boy in surprise, and then he said again, “Would you like to take a ride in my car?” “Oh yes, I’d love to,” the boy answered.
After a short ride, the boy turned and with his eyes shining, said, “Sir, would you mind driving in front of my house?”
Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the boy wanted. He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big car. But Paul was wrong again. “Will you stop where those two steps are?” the boy asked.
He ran up to the steps. Then in a short while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled (残疾的) brother. He sat down on the step and pointed to the car.
“There he is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent. And some day I’m going to give you one just like it…then you can see for yourself all the nice things in the Christmas windows that I’ve been trying to tell you about.”

Last year, I did not like my English class. Every class like a bad dream. The teacher spoke so quickly I did not understand her most of the time. I was afraid to ask questions because my poor pronunciation. I just hid behind my text book and never said anything.
Then one day I watched an English movie called Toy Story. I fall in love with this exciting and funny movie! So I began to watch other English movies, too. Although I could not understand everything the characters said, their body language and the expression on their faces helped me to get the meaning. I also realized I could get the means by listening to the conversations in English movies. I discovered that listening to something interesting is the secret of language learning. I also learned useful sentences like “It’s a piece of cake”or “It serves you right”. I did not understand these sentences at first. But because I wanted to understand the story, I looked them in a dictionary.
Now I learn new words and more grammar so I can have a good understanding of English movies.
