第十天美文晨读The happiest people dont necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way. Happiness lies for those who cry, those who hurt, those who have searched, and those who have tried, for only they can appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives. Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss and ends with a tear. The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past, you cant go on well in life until you let go of your past failures and heartaches.最幸福的人并不是那些拥有最好的东西的人,他们只是能够将得到的东西变得最好。幸福属于那些会哭泣的人,那些受过伤害的人,那些探索的人,以及那些尝试过的人。只有他们才懂得对自己生活有影响的人们的重要。爱以微笑开始,在亲吻中成长,以泪水终结。光明灿烂的明天建立在忘却的过去之上。只有让以往的失败和伤心随风而去,你才能过得更好。When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die, youre the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.出生的时候,哭啼的是你,周围的人却在微笑。珍视生活,好好地活着,这样当你死去时,周围的人在哭泣,而你却在微笑。I.写出下面词组。1. 虚拟现实 _ 2. 全球变暖 _3. 取得联系 _ 4. 本人/亲身 _5. 历史事件 _ 6.核武器_II. 短文改错Today I can still remember how I became good table tennis player.The first day I went to high school, I saw some of my classmate playing table tennis. Amazing at how skillful they were, I was determined to be just as good. Later on, I often watched them carefully to learn our techniques. Then I kept practicing while I became confidently enough to challenge the good players. At the end of the term I became one of the best players for my class.I really take proud in this experience, because it helped me realize that we all can fulfill our potential and achieve to our goals through hard work. It also helps me better understand the proverb Practice makes perfect.”7. _ 8. _ 9. _ 10. _11. _ 12. _ 13. _ 14. _15. _ 16. _ III. 完形填空When Alice started to cycle home from Jennys house, she wasnt nervous.

The biggest, I think, is learning to get along well with adults. I have found that when dealing with grown-ups, it is wise to remember two things:1. Always use your head.2. Never use your head.For example, one day just before supper, my mother sent me to the store for a whole-wheat bread. They didnt have any. When I told my mother, she said, “ Well, what kind did you get?” I told her I didnt get any. “For goodness sake,” she said, “ if they didnt have , you should have got something else! Why dont you use your head?” Not long after that, she sent me to the store for red oilcloth. They didnt have any, so I bought seven yards of purple. I thought it was pretty. Mother didnt. She said, “ Who ever heard of purple oilcloth in a red kitchen?” I told her I was only trying to use my head. She said, “ Well, dont! And if you cant get what I send you for, dont get anything.” See what I mean?Another problem is what to do when you fall over and land with your head in the fridge ,causing a large lump(肿块) just over the eyebrow. In this case, your father could explode with a few choice words. Your sister could burst into tears. Your mother could, and probably would do both. But you? You are thirteen and cant do anything! You are too young to curse(咒骂), and “ big boys” dont cry. So you are just standing there looking more stupid than usual. But despite all this, I still think thirteen is a wonderful age!1. The main idea of the passage is that .A. young children are sometimes troublesome.B. being thirteen involves too many responsibilities.C. a thirteen-year-old boy is the sun of the familyD. thirteen-year-olds have special problems2.

What do you hear? 6 Its similar to the music you listen to, but its not exactly the same. Thats because this music was especially designed to relax you, or to give you extra energy. Sometimes you dont even realize the music is playing, but you react to the music anyway. Quiet background music used to be called elevator (电梯) music because we often heard it in elevators. But lately we hear it in more and more places, and it has a new name Muzak. About one-third of the people in America listen to Muzak every day. The music plays for 15 minutes at a time, with short pauses in between. It is always more lively between ten and eleven in the morning, and between three and four in the afternoon, when people are more tired. 7 If you listen to Muzak carefully, you will probably recognize the names of many of the songs. Some musicians or songwriters dont want their songs to be used as Muzak, but others are happy when their songs are chosen. Why? 8 Music is often played in public places because it is designed to make people feel less lonely when they are in an airport or a hotel. It has been proven that Muzak does what it is designed to do. Tired office workers suddenly have more energy when they hear the pleasant sound of Muzak in the background. 9 Supermarket shoppers buy 38 percent more groceries. 10 . They say its boring to hear the same songs all the time. But other people enjoy hearing Muzak in public places. They say it helps them relax and feel calm. One way or another, Muzak affects everyone. Some farmers even say their cows give more milk when they hear Muzak!A. Some people dont like Muzak. B. The music gives them extra energy.C. Music is playing in the background.D. Factory workers produce 13 percent more.E. Muzak tends to help people understand music better.F. They get as much as $4 million a year if their songs are used.G. Muzak is played in most of the big supermarkets in the world.第十天I. 1. virtual reality 2. global warming 3. get in touch with 4. in the flesh 5. historical events 6. nuclear weapons II. 7. became后加a 8. classmateclassmates 9.
