In life, we will succeed and fail often for reasons that are entirely out of our control. For instance, we can be incredibly nice and love someone deeply, and they may not love us back. We can work harder than anyone else in the office and still not be promoted to management. We can eat healthy food, exercise and stay away from alcohol and cigarettes, and still get sick.
The bottom line is that life is not fair.
That is a tough pill to swallow for many of us. As a result, some people shut down after being hit by even one unfair blow from life. They can’t handle the fact that our efforts don’t always get the results that we expect. But if we let life’s unfairness defeat us, we will never receive the beautiful blessings (幸事) that life has in store for us.
For example, my first marriage ended in divorce. To me, it felt very unfair. I had worked hard to be a good wife and mother. However, no matter what I did, I could not make the relationship work.
I could have been shut down by that experience. I could have decided that if one person didn’t appreciate me as a wife, then no one would. I could have given up. But I knew that I wanted to be married. I knew that I wanted to experience traditional family life. So I didn’t let one seemingly unfair experience stop me from believing that I could one day be happily married. And then one day, I met this kind, thoughtful, generous man with whom I now have a wonderful friendship and marriage. But that wouldn’t have happened if I had decided to give up after one failed marriage.
What I’ve learned over the years is that we can do all the things that deserve a good outcome, but get bad things in return instead.
When we are faced with life’s seeming unfairness, our faith needs to jump in. When life doesn’t go according to plan, we have to let go of the outcome that we are looking forward to and keep trying, working hard and doing the right thing. Please don’t be discouraged. Accept that life is neither fair nor straightforward. And by knowing that if we remain confident, we can drive our unfair experiences away and use them for our benefit.
1.We can learn from the first three paragraphs that ______.
A. life doesn’t often turn out the way we expect
B. the author thinks life should reward us for our efforts
C. unsatisfactory results simply mean your effort is not enough
D. people should focus on the process rather than the outcomes
2.The author wrote about her unsuccessful marriage to ______.
A. complain about the unfairness of her life and marriage
B. tell readers how she met her second husband and became happily married
C. express how proud she is for not being shut down by a blow from life
D. show that we need to have faith and continue working for our goals
3.When we encounter unfairness in life, the author suggests we ______.
a. do nothing but accept them
b. be confident with ourselves
c. keep doing what we should do
d. find out what has gone wrong
A. ab B. ad
C. bc D. cd
4.The author wrote the article mainly to ______.
A. share her experiences of unfairness in life
B. tell us how to deal with life’s seeming unfairness
C. tell us that life has beautiful blessings in store for us
D. explain why life seems neither fair nor straightforward

Every boy and every girl are eager for success. But what can we succeed in life? Here are my opinions:
First, we must be friendly and kindly. It allows us to make friends but survive wherever we are. Second, we must set a goal, which motivates us to pursue our dreams. Third, it’s better to believe in us. Only with self-confidence we realize our goals. Fourth, we should develop good characters, such as a strong will and diligence, because good qualities help us to hold on to our dreams since we get into the trouble.
As far as I’m concerning, success belongs to those who keep on trying. So let’s take actions now!

Most of us will admit that on occasions we can be bad－tempered. This can be for a number of reasons.
1.As the body and mind are tired, it seems to take us less time to become angry just because of something that is of little importance.

Diet and lifestyle can be key factors in causing a bad temper. Some people don't realize that their diet can directly affect their moods. Processed food and items that contain a lot of sugars, especially those that aren't natural sugars, can cause a rise in blood sugar. 3.Similarly, lifestyle choices can encourage bad tempers and poor moods, especially if drug and alcohol are used too frequently.4.
If you have noticed that you are becoming increasingly bad－tempered, it is important that you take steps to try and regain control.5.After you find the cause, try and make positive changes to prevent this from occurring in the future.
A．Find your ways to release your anger.
B．Check what it is that causes the bad mood.

D．Managing your anger is good for your health.
