When I was 17，I read a quote that went something like：“If you live each day as if it were your last，someday you’11 most certainly be right．”It made a deep     on me．a(chǎn)nd since then, for the past 33 years，I have     in the mirror every morning and asked myself：“If today were the last day of my life，    I want to do what I am about to do today?” And whenever the answer has been “No” for too many days in a     ，I know I need to change something．
Remembering that I’ll be    soon is the most important tool I’ve ever known to help me make the big    in life because almost everything falls away in the face of death，   only what is truly important
About a year ago I was     with cancer. My doctor even advised me to go home and get my affairs     order，which is a doctor’s way of telling people to prepare to die．I     with that diagnosis all day．    ，at last an advanced test showed that it was a very rare cancer that is     with surgery．I had the surgery and I’m fine now.
    wants to die．Even people who want to go to heaven don’t want to die to get there And yet death is the destination we all    ．No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be，because death is very likely the single best invention of     ．It is life's change agent. It clears out the old to     for the new．Right now the new is you, but someday not too     from now，you will gradually become the old and be cleared away．Sorry to be so dramatic，but it is quite true．
Your time is     ，so don’t waste it living someone else’s 1ife．Don’t be     by dogma(教條) —which is living with the results of other people’s thinking．Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner    ．And most importantly，have the courage to follow your heart

The way people hold to the belief that a fun­filled，pain­free life equals happiness actually reduces their chances of ever attaining real happiness.If fun and pleasure are equal to happiness，then pain must be equal to unhappiness.But in fact，the opposite is true.More often than not，things that lead to happiness involve some pain.
As a result，many people avoid the very attempts that are the source of true happiness.They fear the pain inevitably (不可避免地) brought by such things as marriage，raising children，professional achievement，religious commitment and self­improvement.
Ask a bachelor (單身漢) why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfying.If he is honest，he will tell you that he is afraid of making a commitment.Certainly，commitment is quite painful.The single life is filled with fun，adventure，and excitement.Marriage has such moments，but they are not its most distinguishing (顯著的) features.
Couples with infant (嬰兒) children are lucky to get a whole night’s sleep or a three­day vacation.I don’t know any parent who would choose the word fun to describe raising children.But couples who decide not to have children never know the joys of watching a child grow up or of playing with a grandchild.
Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun is one of the most liberating realizations.It liberates time：now we can devote more hours to activities that can genuinely increase our happiness.It liberates money：buying that new car or those fancy clothes that will do nothing to increase our happiness now seems pointless.And it liberates us from envy：we now understand that all those who are always having so much fun actually may not be happy at all.
小題1:According to the author，a bachelor doesn’t want to marry mainly because________.
A．he is unwilling to take family responsibilities
B．he believes that life will be more cheerful if he remains single
C．he finds more fun in dating than in marriage
D．he fears it will put an end to all his fun adventure and excitement
小題2:Raising children，in the author’s opinion，is________.
A．a(chǎn) moral duty
B．a(chǎn) thankless job
C．a(chǎn) rewarding task
D．a(chǎn) source of inevitable pain
小題3:To understand what true happiness is one must________.
A．have as much fun as possible during one’s lifetime
B．make every effort to liberate oneself from pain
C．put up with pain under all circumstances
D．be able to distinguish happiness from fun
小題4:What is the main idea of the passage?
A．Happiness often goes hand in hand with pain.
B．One must know how to attain happiness.
C．It is important to make commitments.
D．It is pain that leads to happiness.

科目：高中英語 來源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解

One of the greatest sources of unhappiness，in my experience，is the difficulty we have in accepting things as they are．
When we see something we don’t like，we wish it could be different．We cry out for something better．That may be human nature，or perhaps it’s something ingrained(根深蒂固的) in our culture．The root of the unhappiness isn’t necessarily that we want things to be different．However, it’s that we decided we didn’t like it in the first place．We’ve judged it as bad，rather than saying, “It's not bad or good，and it just is it．”
In one of my books，I said“You should expect people to mess up and expect things to go differently than you planned”．Some readers said it's too sorrowful to expect things to go wrong．However, it’s only negative if you see it as negative and judge it as bad．Instead，you could accept it as the way the world works and try to understand why that is．
This can be applied to whatever you do：how other people act at work，how politics works and how depressing the news media can be．Accept these things as they are，and try to understand why they’re that way．It will save you a lot of sadness，because you’ll no longer say,“Oh．1 wish bad things didn’t happen!’’
Does it mean you can never change things? Not at a11．But change things not because you can’t accept things as they are，but because you enjoy the process of changing，learning and growing．
Can we make this world a better place? You can say that you’11 continue to try to do things to help others，to grow as a person，to make a difference in this world．That’s the correct path you choose to take，because you enjoy that path．Therefore，when you find yourself judging and wishing for difference，try a different approach：accept，and understand．It might lead to some interesting results．
小題1:The author believes that we feel unhappy maybe because ___________.
A．it is our natural emotion in the life
B．culture asks us to be different from others
C．everyone has their own opinions on things
D．we dislike something in the beginning
小題2:Some readers think the words in the author’s book is too ______________.
A．depressingB．frighteningC．delightingD．idealistic
小題3:In Paragraph 4，the underlined word "it" refers to ____________．
A．a(chǎn)cting well at work and in politics
B．feeling depressed for the news media
C．a(chǎn)ccepting and understanding what has happened
D．saying something negative when bad things come
小題4:In the last paragraph，you are advised _____________．
A．to help others and make a difference
B．to enjoy what you have to do in the work
C．to judge yourself and make a wish for you
D．to try a new way when making the world better
小題5:What is the main theme of the passage?
A．Expecting things to be different gives us hope．
B．Accepting can make our life happier and better．
C．Traditional culture becomes root of unhappiness．
D．Judging good or bad is important for our world．

Every fast-food employee knows that the drive-through window is the worst position. The window sticks with constant ice; the roar of engines hurts your     ; your words are lost in the howling wind.
On a        afternoon, everything changed.
Every once in a while, the sub-zero temperatures seal a        windows shut. Drivers don’t exactly enjoy having to stand outside in the cold,       their orders into a speaker box, when they expect to drive through on their heated leather seats. In such cases, most customers tend to show their annoyance to the employees.
This woman was       .
“I’ll get the next car’s        as well,” she said as she came up to the window to pay. She stood outside,        much snow on her hair. Though she was obviously freezing, her bright        lit up her face like a fire.
“You can’t        their drinks,” I said, confused and tired.
“No, but I’ll buy them,” she said. “Pay it forward and all that.”
Completely puzzled, I charged her as       , and when the next customer arrived at the window I explained what had just happened. I watched as his         changed — first angry to be out in the cold, then        at the random act of kindness, and finally, delighted by his     .
“I suppose I’ll pay for the next order then,” he replied, nodding and waving at the impatient driver       him. He        over the cash and received his pre-paid hot drink.
The trend continued. Customers arrived annoyed, only to leave        and pleased. Some were shocked to spend much more than they had expected,        others ended up receiving their order for less than half the price.
Five vehicles passed, then ten, then twenty. No one refused to pay. Customers stood at my window          a fist-full of change to buy drinks for a complete stranger. Cars drove off, honking (鳴笛) and          their thanks.
It only takes one customer, one person, to change the entire        of traffic. It only takes one moment, one smile, to warm up even the coldest of days.

When Joan gave birth to the first boy in her family in three generations, she and her husband were overjoyed. So were her parents. Joan expected her elder sister, Sally, to be just as delighted as them. Joan had always admired Sally--the beauty and the star of the family--and felt happy about her achievements.
But since the baby's arrival, the sisters have become distant. Joan feels hurt for Sally seems completely uninterested in her baby. Sally, who has no children, claims that her younger sister "acts as if no one ever had a baby before."
Neither Sally nor Joan understands that the real cause of the current coldness is that their family roles have suddenly changed to the opposite. Finally Joan seems to be better than her elder sister--and Sally doesn't like it! Their distance may be temporary, but it shows that childhood competition don't fade easily as ages grow. It can remain powerful in relationships throughout life.
In a study of the University of Cincinnati, 65 men and women between ages 25 and 93 were asked how they felt about their brothers and sisters. Nearly 75 percent admitted having hidden competitive feelings. In a few cases, these emotions were so strong as to have affected their entire lives.
Many adult brothers and sisters are close, supportive--yet still tend to compete. Two brothers I know turn into killers when on opposite sides of a tennis net. Off the court, they are the best of friends. My own younger sister can't wait to tell me when I've put on weight. However, she's a terrible cook and that pleases me; I tease her when she comes to dinner. Happily, despite these small failings, we have been an important resource for each other.
In between the very competitive and the generally supportive children lie those who say that no friendship should survive. Some brothers and sisters stay at arm's length, but never give up competition completely. Why do these puzzling, unproductive, often painful relationships continue to exist?
小題1:When Joan's son was born, Sally       .
A．felt very happyB．felt not delightedC．moved awayD．a(chǎn)dmired her a lot
小題2:What happens to children's desire to compete with their brothers and sisters?
A．It sometimes will disappear when they grow up.
B．It will never disappear throughout life.
C．It will improve their relationships when they grow up.
D．It will never harm their relationships when they grow up.
小題3:Why does the author's sister often tell her when she's put on weight?
A．Because she wants the author to go on a diet.
B．Because she wants the author to stop calling her a bad cook.
C．Because she wants to make fun of the author's weight.
D．Because she wants to be honest with the author.
小題4:The underlined sentence means that although some brothers and sisters       .
A．live near each other, they still have competitions
B．live away from each other, they stop their competitions
C．live together, they often think of ending their competitions
D．live within a big family, they often try to end their competitions

Sometimes I have given pieces of my heart away, and the other person hasn't       a piece of his or her heart to me. These are the empty       — giving love is taking a chance.

科目：高中英語 來源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解

Little did I know that I was about to see something I would never forget at the Kentucky Association of School Administrators.
They introduced the young musician---Mr Patrick Henry Hughes. He was rolled onto the stage in his wheelchair and began to play the piano. His fingers danced across the keys as he made beautiful music.
About ten minutes into Patrick’s performance, someone came on the stage and said, “I’d like to share a seven-minute video about Patrick Hughes.” Then the lights were turned down.
Patrick Henry Hughes was born with no eyes and a tightening of the joints(關(guān)節(jié)), which left him disabled for life. However, he was fitted with artificial eyes and placed in a wheelchair. Before his first birthday, he discovered the piano. His mom said, “I could hit any note on the piano, and within one or two tries, he’d get it.” By his second birthday, he was playing records people asked for. His father was ecstatic. “We might not play baseball, but we can play music together.”
Today, Patrick is a junior. His father attends classes with him and he’s made nearly all A’s. He’s also a part of a 214-member marching band(游樂樂隊). He’s a blind, wheelchair-bound trumpet player; he and his father do it together. In order to attend Patrick’s classes and every band practice, his father works the night shift(夜班) at United Parcel Service. Patrick says, “My dad’s my hero.”
On stage, between songs, Patrick talked to the audience about his life and about how blessed he was, “God made me blind and unable to walk. BIG DEAL! He gave me musical gifts and the great opportunity to meet new people.”
When his performance was over, the crowd rose to their feet and cheered for over five minutes.

小題3:We know from the text that Patrick Henry Hughes ______________.
A．began to play the piano at age two
