The weather depends on the sky, but whether you are happy or not depends on yourself.

I can well remember that I didn’t pass the Chinese exam several times last year, so the weather of my sky seemed to be full of clouds. Although the songs of birds were very nice and the flowers were very beautiful, they could not let me escape from depression. What’s more, I felt that I was laughed at by all the other classmates. My Chinese teacher noticed my subtle difference, so she gave me some advice and told me to change my attitude. With the help of her, I tried to face the trouble with a positive attitude. To my surprise, everything changed. It was not long before I made great progress in my Chinese.

Life is full of difficulties. Sometimes you may not be able to decide the situation you are in, but you can change your attitude.

My mother loves flowers. As soon as warm weather comes around, you will find her planting, watering and weeding over everything .For many years we lived next door to each other, and she spent as much time in my garden as she did her own. After the flowers became plentiful each summer, she would cut colorful bouquets(花束)to enjoy inside the house—both hers and mine . I would often come home from work and find a beautiful arrangement(布置)of fresh flowers on my coffee table.

Shortly before Christmas one year, a local flower shop offered a bouquet-a-month special. It seemed to be a great way to thank her for all of the flowers she had given me through the years.

After the holidays, in early January, I drove her to the flower shop to pick up her first month’s bouquet. the small fresh colorful bouquet would hardly fill a small vase(花瓶).

I was so embarrassed(尷尬的).However, after we returned home, she began to arrange the flowers she had received.“Mom, I’m sorry, ”I told her.“I can’t believe how skimpy that bouquet is.”She looked at me and smiled.“It’s okay,”she said“It allows me to better enjoy the beauty of each one.”

Mom’s words helped me to realize something bigger and more important—when we have too many good things, we often fail to enjoy the beauty of each one.

Thanks, Mom ,for helping me understand that less is sometimes more.

The elephant was lying heavily on its side, fast asleep. A few dogs started barking at it. The elephant woke up in a terrible anger: it chased the dogs into the village where they ran for safety. That didn't stop the elephant. It destroyed a dozen houses and injured several people. The villagers were scared and angry. Then someone suggested calling Parbati, the elephant princess.

Parbati Barua’s father was a hunter of tigers and an elephant tamer（馴獸者）. He taught Parbati to ride an elephant before she could even walk. He also taught her the dangerous art of the elephant round-up -- how to catch wild elephants.

Parbati hasn’t always lived in the jungle. After a happy childhood hunting with her father, she was sent to boarding school in the city. But Parbati never got used to being there and many years later she went back to her old life. “Life in the city is too dull. Catching elephants is an adventure and the excitement lasts for days after the chase,” she says.

But Parbati doesn’t catch elephants just for fun. “My work,” she says, “is to rescue man from the elephants, and to keep the elephants safe from man.” And this is exactly what Parbati has been doing for many years. Increasingly, the Indian elephant is angry: for many years, illegal hunters have attacked it and its home in the jungle has been reduced to small pieces of land. It is now fighting back. Whenever wild elephants enter a tea garden or a village, Parbati is called to guide the animals back to the jungle before they can kill.

The work of an elephant tamer also involves love and devotion. A good elephant tamer will spend hours a day singing love songs to a newly captured elephant. “Eventually they grow to love their tamers and never forget them. They are also more loyal than humans,” she said, as she climbed up one of her elephants and sat on the giant, happy animal. An elephant princess indeed!

1.For Parbati, catching elephants is mainly to ______.

A. get long lasting excitement

B. make the angry elephants tame

C. send them back to the jungle

D. keep both man and elephants safe

2.Before Parbati studied in a boarding school, ______.

A. she spent her time hunting with her father

B. she learned how to sing love songs

C. she had already been called an elephant princess

D. she was taught how to hunt tigers

3.Indian elephants are getting increasingly angry and they revenge（報(bào)復(fù)）because ______.

A. they are caught and sent for heavy work

B. illegal hunters capture them and kill them

C. they are attacked and their land gets limited

D. dogs often bark at them and chase them

4.The passage starts with an elephant story in order to explain that in India ______.

A. people easily fall victim（受害者）to elephants attacks

B. dogs are as powerful as elephants

C. elephant tamers are in short supply

D. the man-elephant relationship is getting worse

Right now in China, talks on the street have been about the strange weather and it's raising a lot of concerns. A heavy haze(霧霾) has blanketed many cities in the northern and southern parts of the country in part of an unusual weather system that’s descended on the nation.

The haze stretches over a vast area, from Hebei and Shan-dong Provinces in the north all the way to Zhejiang, Anhui, Jiangsu, Hunan and Fujian provinces in the south. At its worst, the smog is reducing visibility to less than 200 meters and disrupting traffic, both on the ground and in the air. The weather front has also led many to worry about the possible health impacts.

Many cities are waking up to another day covered by a dense haze. In Beijing, drivers have to keep their lights on even though it’s already past eight o’clock in the morning. Even driving at very slow speeds, the roads can still be very dangerous. In some of the worst hit areas, drivers can’t even tell the colors of traffic signals. Authorities have stepped in to close off many highways across the troubled region. In Shandong Province, the highways that are open are backed up for miles. And traffic police have stepped up their patrols.

In the region’s airports, flights information boards have gone red. A huge number of flights have been delayed or cancelled, nearly three hundred in Beijing alone, leaving thousands of passengers stranded. Some are more frustrated than impatient. Passenger from Jinan airport, Shangdong province, said: “I’ve been waiting for more than five hours. It’s Mother Nature, so there’s really nothing we can do.” The airport is urging passengers to confirm with their carrier whether their flight will still take off as scheduled.

Back on the city streets, people are wearing breathing masks to get free from any ill effects. Fog has cleared a little in Shanghai. But damage has already been done. Shanghai resident said: “I’ve been wearing the mask, but still, my throat feels sour and itchy. I think it’s because of the weather.”

The weather forecast predicts a cold front is about to sweep across central and eastern China tomorrow. Many are hoping that this will clear away the depressive haze as well as the harm it brings.

1.The harm the smog caused didn’t include .

A. reducing visibility to less than 200 meters

B. disrupting traffic

C. health problems

D. heavy fog

2.Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A. Only a small part of China suffered the haze.

B. Many highways were blocked up

C. All the flights were delayed or cancelled

D. The bad weather would last another few days

3.When the passenger said “It is Mother Nature”, he had a feeling of .

A. impatience B. frustration

C. Anxiety D. curiosity

4.The passage is developed by .

A. making comparisons

B. giving examples

C. following the time order

D. analyzing the causes
