In 2010, The New York Times reported “The Happiest Man in America” is Alvin Wong who is at least 65 and married, has children, lives in Hawaii, runs his own business and has a household(家庭) income(收入) of more than $120,000 a year. People wondered his simple, happy life was such an anomaly(与众不同). “What is the secret to your happiness?” People asked. He said, “I learned about myself… And I think, for my own sake, I’ve known the secret to my happiness. It’s attitude (态度). If you have a family, your family has to come before anything else. He says, “I take one step forward and I’m very happy doing that.”

A recent poll by The New York Times shows that fewer and fewer people in the United States believe in the “American dream.” The poll asked the question: Do you believe you can start out poor in this country, work hard and become rich? Only 64 percent of Americans said “yes.”

Trust in the American dream may be disappearing. ____ halfway around the world, a new dream has been gaining strength – the Chinese dream.

President Xi said, “I believe that realizing the great revival(复兴) of the Chinese nation is the greatest dream of the Chinese nation in modern times.” The expression “Chinese dream” has since become President Xi Jinping' s political slogan. But, what is the Chinese dream? And how has President Xi started to make that dream a reality?

Xi' s Chinese dream has three key parts: strengthen China, improve prosperity（繁荣，昌盛）, and increase China' s military（军事的） power. In recent months, China has taken clear steps toward becoming stronger both domestically and globally.

For many Chinese citizens, it is not always easy to believe in the Chinese dream. Mr. Ernst says one major reason for this is the country' s severe pollution problem. “What is the most important thing you experience? Pollution. When you' re a young couple and you have kids, it' s not so easy to dream. Because you have to deal with very concrete（具体的） health concerns（顾虑）.”

The Chinese dream is not just for a richer and more powerful China, but a cleaner China. President Xi and the Chinese government know this. President Xi said, “Every day we will see a blue sky, green mountains and clear rivers, not just in Beijing, but all across China so that our children will live in an enjoyable environment.”

任务型阕读：阅读下面的短文，然后根据要求完成短文后面的题目。

The New York City Marathon was started by a man named Fred Lebow. It began in 1970 as a small, unimportant race. Only 127 people ran, and just 55 0fthem finished. They ran around Central Park four times. Few people watched them run. However, over the years the marathon grew and became more popular.

Today people come from all over the world to run in the marathon. Runners must be at least 18 years old, but there is no age limit（限制）. In fact, the oldest runner was an 89-year-old man. Recently, more than 27,000 people ran in the New York City Marathon. Large crowds cheered the runners and offered them cold drinks and encouragement.

The course(路线) of the marathon has changed, too. Instead of running around Central Park, the runners go through the five districts of New York City: Queens, Brooklyn, Manhattan, the Bronx, and Staten Island. The marathon begins at the base(基座)of the Verrazano Narrows Bridge in Staten Island. The runners go across the bridge into Brooklyn. Then they go up through Queens and into the Bronx. The marathon finishes in Central Park in Manhattan. The complete course is 26. 2 miles, and takes the best runners less than 3 hours.

Although it has changed since 1970, the New York City Marathon is always exciting. Through the years, many unusual events（事件） have happened during the marathon. For example, Pat Tuz and John Weilbaker got married a few minutes before the race. Then they ran the race with their party members. Some people run the whole marathon as a family.　 Other people run the race backwards.

In the fall of 1992, Fred Lebow, the founder（创始人） ofthe New York City Marathon,　 slowly ran his last race. He was very ill with cancer, but he did not want to stop running. In October 1994, Fred died.

However, the New York City, Marathon, and all its excitement, will continue for many years to come.
