Life is difficult.

What do you think about life? Maybe most people say that life is difficult. But life is no longer difficult once we truly understand and accept it. Most people do not fully see this truth. Instead, they complain about their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy. It seems to them that their difficulties represent a special kind of suffering especially forced upon (强加于) them or their families, their class, or even their nation.

What makes life difficult is that the process of facing and solving problems is a painful one. Problems, depending on their nature, cause us sadness or loneliness or regret or anger or fear. These are uncomfortable feelings, often as painful as any kind of physical pain. And since life causes an endless series of problems, life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joy.

Yet, it is in this whole process of solving problems that life has its meaning.

Problems are the serious test that tells success from failure. When we desire to encourage the growth of the human spirit, we encourage the human ability to solve problems, just as in school we set problems for our children to solve. It is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learn. As Benjamin Franklin said, “Those things that hurt instruct.” It is for this reason that wise people learn not to fear but to welcome the pain of problems.

1.The writer probably used just one short sentence in the first paragraph to _________.

A. show his opinion　　 B. argue with readers

C. give an example　　 D. get readers’ attention

2.According to the passage we give school children difficult problems in order to _______.

A. help them learn to deal with pain

B. teach them how to respect problems

C. encourage them to solve problems

D. teach them to fear the pain of solving problems

3.The saying from Benjamin Franklin “Those things that hurt instruct.” suggests that _________.

A. pain teaches us important lessons　　 B. we do not learn when we are in pain

C. we do not learn from experience　　 D. the pain of problems is not welcome

4.The passage mainly tells us that _________.

A. everybody has problems

B. we become stronger by facing and solving the problems of life

C. people like to complain about their problems

D. life is difficult because our problems bring us pain

"You are what you eat," goes an English saying. But actually, you are what you drink. Why? Because 75% of your body is water! 1. When we don't give our bodies enough water, our organs cannot work properly. We are also easier to catch a disease. When we are sick, drinking plenty of water should be one of the first things we do. 2.

Is your body asking for more water?

If you experience headaches, sleepiness, allergies or dizziness (头昏眼花), your body might be telling you to drink more water. 3.

Even problems such as nervousness or forgetfulness can be caused by lack of water. In addition, the medicines that treat these illnesses can sometimes dry out your body further. The more water you are lacking in, the worse your health will be-no matter how much medicine you take. 4.

How much water is enough for you?

Most experts suggest drinking at least 8-ounce glasses of water every day. However, if you weigh more than 128 pounds, you need even more water. Drink an extra glass of water for every 15 pounds of body weight.

Drink more water in the hot summer months and when you exercise to replenish (补充) the water loss through sweating. Caffeine makes your body lose water very quickly. So drink extra water if you drink beverages such as coffee, tea and soda.

Helpful tips

Try these tips to help yourself drink more water.

●Don't wait until you are thirsty to drink. 5.

●Plan to have enough water.

●Carry a bottle of pure water with you wherever you go.

●Don't hesitate by frequent trips to the toilet.

Drinking plenty of water can take as much time as you need and prevent serious illness in the future. So pour yourself a glass of water and drink up!

A. Drink water occasionally.

B. All kinds of drink will contribute to your health.

C. If you're thirsty, you're already lack of water.

D. Instead, we usually depend on drugs to make us well.

E. Lack of water may be the real reason for your sickness.

F. Therefore, it is important to listen to your body when it asks for a drink!

G. With this in mind, it's no surprise that drinking enough water is crucial for good health.

Dear John,

My name is Amber and I want to share my story with you because what you've shared about life and positive energy has changed my life. This past year has been one of the hardest for me. I felt I was stuck in a position that had nothing to do with what I wanted to do with my life. In January, after two years of being together, my boyfriend left me.

I read your blog every morning as I drink my coffee at work, but it wasn't until this March that I told myself "no more negativity" as you taught readers in your blog.

Since then I've got into new habits at work to keep my energy positive. When people walk in the front door, I'm the first face they see, so I smile big when I say "good morning" to them, especially on Mondays. Instead of waiting for someone to ask me for help, I offer it with an open mind. The CEO noticed my change and offered me the executive assistant position that I wanted.

One of the biggest things I've taken to heart from your blog is changing my opinions on my job. Yes, it was not an important position, but when I was passionate （热情的） about it, I could make my life fulfilling.

All in all, I have to thank you somehow for having the passion to help others because it truly is inspiring to me. So thank you so much, John. My life has changed because your words pointed me in the right direction, Take care!

What Does the Length of Your Fingers Say About You?

Are you the peace-loving type or the ambitious go-getter? Your finger length might be a clue. Take a look at your fingers. Would you believe me if I told you that the length of your fingers in relation to one another can predict your personality? I know that it sounds like one of those silly tests you see on Facebook, but I have to admit that it is exactly correct for me. Here’s how it works.

Look at your three middle fingers of your hand. Is your index finger longer than your ring finger? Is your ring finger longer than your index finger? Or are the two of the same length? Find the situation that best matches your hand and see if what follows is an accurate description of your personality.

Longer ring finger: The Sweet Talker

If your ring finger is longer than your index finger, research shows that you’re likely a charming type, and you can probably talk yourself out of any situation. Others often find this personality type irresistible and will go to great lengths to help you. You’re more likely to take risks, and you’re good at problem-solving. People in this category make great engineers, soldiers and crossword-puzzle solvers.

Longer index finger: The (Over) Confident One　　

If your index finger is longer than your ring finger, chances are you are full of confidence—possibly even to the point of being over-confident and proud. You are not necessarily introverted (内向的), but you do enjoy time to yourself, especially when you’re trying to complete a project. You are a dream pursuer who can make things happen, but you may be shy when it comes to taking the first step in a relationship. You are also probably happy with what you have, but you’re always wishing for more.

Index and ring finger are of the same length: The Peacemaker

If your index finger and ring finger are roughly of the same length, you are likely to avoid conflict at all costs and seek to keep the peace in your relationships. You are well-organized, faithful and sympathetic. But deep down under all of that caring and peace-loving, you also have a hot-tempered side that can appear unexpectedly when you’re pushed too far. You will try your hardest to avoid a fight.

How well do these descriptions match your personality? I was surprised at the accuracy in my case, but I’m not going to tell you which one it was!

1.Which of the following hand could be an engineer’s hand?

A. 　　 B. 　　 C. 　　 D.

2.We can learn from the passage that the author ______.

A. is very charming and helpful　　 B. always tries hard to avoid a fight

C. often takes silly tests on Facebook　　 D. thinks the descriptions suit him well

3.What does the passage intend to tell us?

A. How accurate the description of the test is.

B. The length of fingers can reveal personality.

C. Why your fingers are not of the same length.

D. Personality is determined by your finger length.

4.Where can you probably find the text?

A. A popular magazine.　　 B. An official report.

C. A public advertisement.　　 D. A biology textbook.
