6.Here are the tips from Sonja Lyubomirsky,author of The How of Happiness,to help you deal with a bad economy,and increase your happiness throughout the day.
(1)Avoid Overthinking
In order to remove pessimism when things are difficult,it's best to think positively(積極地)."What can I learn from this?Times are hard,I've been out of work over a period of time,but I can spend more time with the kids,take up a new hobby,or learn a new set of skills."
(2)Practice Acts of Kindness
Now more than ever we need each other to stay alive.Lyubomirsky found that doing good things for friends,family,or strangers can make you happier.Think of practical,everyday offers that make someone's life a little bit easier.
(3)Focus on Your Relationships
You don't need an expert to tell you that relationships are important to happiness.Not being the bread-winner anymore or not being able to meet your kids'needs can make your family life hard.But the solution is to stop feeling bad and focus on nurturing(培育)your loved ones.
"What parents don't realize is that kids don't care about toys but their attitudes towards them"says Lyubomirsky.
(4)Pick a Goal
Devote yourself to a project-whether it is a business you want to start or a dance you want to learn.But it's also important to remember to be flexible (靈活)in these times.Don't feel down if conditions are stopping you from meeting your goals.Stick to it and change it if necessary!
(5)Take Care of Your Body
Spend a small part of your day giving your body some TLC (tender loving care).It will go a long way in adding to your happiness."Even if you can't afford to go to the gym,"Lyubomirsky says,"take time out to exercise at home."

7.What is teaching?It's a difficult question to answer.In fact,as long as teachers fail to distinguish between teaching and learning,they will continue to undertake to do for children that which only children can do for themselves.Teaching children to read is not passing reading on to them.It is certainly not endless hours spent in activities about reading.Douglas insists that"reading cannot be taught directly and schools should stop trying to do the impossible".
Teaching and learning are two entirely different processes.They differ in kind and function.The function of teaching is to create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible for children to devise the most efficient system for teaching themselves to read.Teaching is also a public activity.It can be seen and observed.
Learning to read involves all that each individual does to make sense of the world of printed language.Almost all of it is private,for learning is an occupation of the mind,and that process is not open to public  scrutiny.
If teacher and learner roles are not interchangeable,what then can be done through teaching that will aid the child in the quest(探索) for knowledge?Smith has one principal rule for all teaching instructions."Make learning to read easy,which means making reading a meaningful,enjoyable and frequent experience for children".
When the roles of teacher and learner are seen for what they are,and when both teacher fulfil them appropriately,then much of the pressure and feeling of failure for both is eliminated.Learning to read is made easier when teachers create an environment where children are given the opportunity to solve the problem of leaning to read by reading.

44.According to the passage,learning to read will no longer be a difficult task whenD.
A.reading enriches children's experience
B.teacher and learner roles are interchangeable
C.teaching helps children in the search for knowledge
D.children become highly motivated
45.The instruction of reading will be successful ifA.
A.teachers can enable students to develop their own way of reading
B.teachers can improve conditions at school for the students
C.teachers can devise the most efficient system for reading
D.teachers can make their teaching activities observable
46.The underlined word"scrutiny"most probably means"D".
A.inquiry    B.suspicion     C.control  D.observation
47.The main idea of the passage is thatD.
A.teachers should do as little as possible in helping students learn to read
B.teachers should encourage students to read as widely as possible
C.reading is more complicated than generally believed
D.reading ability is something acquired rather than taught.

4.I was in my third year of teaching creative writing at a high school in New York,when one of my students,15-year-old Mikey,gave me a note from his mother.It explained his absence from class the day before.
I had seen Mikey himself writing the note at his desk.Most parental-excuse notes I received were penned by my students.If I were to deal with them,I'd be busy 24hours a day.
The  forged  excuse notes made a large pile,with writing that ranged from imaginative to crazy.The writers of those notes didn't realize that honest excuse notes were usually dull:"Peter was late because the alarm clock didn't go off."
Isn't it remarkable,I thought,how the students complained and said it was hard putting 200words together on any subject?But when they produced excuse notes,they were brilliant.
So one day I typed out a dozen excuse notes and gave them to my classes.I said,"They're supposed to be written by parents,but actually they are not.True,Mikey?"The students looked at me nervously.
"Now,this will be the first class to study the art of the excuse note---the first class,ever,to practice writing them.You're so lucky to have a teacher like me who has taken your best writing and turned it into a subject worthy of study."
Everyone smiled as I went on,"You used your imaginations.So try more now.Today I'd like you to write‘An Excuse Note from Adam to God'or‘An Excuse Note from Eve to God'."Heads went down.Pens raced across paper.For the first time ever I saw students so careful in their writing that they had to be asked to go to lunch by their friends.
The next day everyone had excuse notes.Heated discussions followed.The headmaster entered the classroom and walked up and down,looking at papers,and then said,"I'd like you to see me in my office."
When I stepped into his office,he came to shake my hand and said,"I just want to tell you that that lesson,that task,whatever the hell you were doing,was great.Those kids were writing on the college level.Thank you."

61.What did the author do with the students found dishonest?D
A.He reported them to the headmaster.
B.He lectured them hard on honesty.
C.He had them take notes before lunch.
D.He helped improve their writing skills.
62.The author found that compared with the true excuse notes,the produced ones by the students were usuallyB.
A.less impressive        B.more imaginative
C.worse written          D.less convincing
63.The author had the students practice writing excuse notes so that the students could learnD.
A.the importance of being honest       B.how to write excuse notes skillfully
C.the pleasure of creative writing     D.how to be creative in writing
64.The underlined word"forged"in the second paragraph means"C".
A.former       B.copied     C.false     D.honest
65.What did the headmaster think of the author's way of teaching?A

Crames produces perfumes using a high-tech method called headspace technology.This month,Crames is making scent for Tootsie Roll and Junior Mints.Not every smell can be easily copied."One of our most needed perfumes is a little dog's breath,"he says."But it is so chemically complicated that it's very hard to get."
