24、Sadness and happiness are often talked about by people in their spare time. Most people want themselves to be happy forever, but few know how to find happiness. Others say if you own lots of money and success, you will be happy. However, money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. A famous Greek thinker, Aristotle, said, “Happiness depends on ourselves.” That’s to say, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.

The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future, for example, getting into college or getting a good job, which we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life’s simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favourite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.

Another secret to living a happy life is to be active. Many people go dancing or play sports. People can forget about their problems and only think about the activities.

Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, do good things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping or help out with some things around the house for an elderly person.

If you do above, you will be happy.

【1】How many suggestions of happiness are mentioned in this passage?

25、When you were a little child, your parents made decisions about everything for you because you weren’t old enough to take care of yourself and make careful decisions. Finally, however, you grow up and become a teenager. You begin to have your own thoughts and opinions about life.

As you change and grow into this new person who makes your own decisions, your parents may have a difficult time adjusting (调整) themselves to the new you—they only know you as a child.

In most families, this adjustment can cause lots of arguments between teens and parents. You want to cover your walls with posters, but your parents don’t understand why you don’t like your wallpaper anymore. Then you feel your parents don’t respect you and don’t allow you to do what you like, and your parents get angry because they disagree with your decisions. And some other things like the type of friends you have can cause even bigger arguments, because your parents will always be ready to protect you and keep you safe, no matter how old you are.

However, the good news is that there will be fewer arguments as your parents realize that you have grown up and should have your own ideas. Before you get on very well with each other again, communication between you and your parents is very important.

【1】The writer describes ________ in the first paragraph.

A．the decisions you may make

B．the change you may make

C．Because they get angry easily.

D．Because they’re not familiar (熟悉的) with the new you.

【3】The underlined word “respect” means “_________” in Chinese.

A．责备

B．培养

C．欢迎

D．尊重

【4】From the passage, we can learn that ________.

A．teenagers like to be with their parents

B．parents may have a happy time adjusting

C．parents don’t need to communicate with their children

D．the type of friends you have may cause bigger arguments

26、   Critical thinking is the ability to think clearly and rationally（理性地） about what to believe or what to do. According to a report on the World Economic Forum (2016), critical thinking, creativity, and their practical application（应用）are widely accepted as the top three skills that young people need to have in their future career.

A good critical thinker usually takes the following steps before he decides what to do. Whenever he needs to do something, he would, first of all, reason. He checks why he needs to do it and whether he really needs to do it. Then, analyze（分析）. He tries to find out what it really is and the best way to do it. After that, evaluate. He makes sure whether he is able to do it and how to do it well. Finally, he makes the decision and takes action. Take the “Double 11” (a popular online shopping day in China) as an example. A few days before it, he checks carefully what he needs and whether he really needs them, and makes a shopping list. He goes to the online shops to compare the quality（质量） and the prices of the things that he is going to buy. He compares the shops that sell these things. Then he checks whether he can afford（买得起） them and in which shops he is going to buy them. Although it takes him some time to make the decisions, he would not regret（后悔）after the shopping.

Then what would happen if he didn’ t think critically before he made the decisions? After the crazy “Double 11”, there were usually a lot of complaints（抱怨）on the Internet. There were regrets about buying more things than they needed. There were complaints about the poor quality and the prices of the things they bought. There were also complaints because they received wrong things or simply received nothing. There were all kinds of regrets and complaints. Why so? They had not thought critically before they made the decisions.

Critical thinking helps you make wiser decisions. It helps you avoid wasting time, money and so on. Therefore, do look before you leap.

【1】According to the passage, critical thinking is a thinking skill that ________.

A.helps make better choices B.will appear in the future

C.helps make quick decisions D.makes us spend more money

【2】In Paragraph 2, how does the critical thinker analyze the things he may buy?

A.He checks what he needs to buy. B.He makes a proper shopping list.

C.He studies the quality and the prices. D.He checks how much money he has.

【3】Which of the following examples is the use of “critical thinking”?

A.Darning did a new science experiment before reading the order.

B.Lingling’s parents became very angry when they knew her bad marks.

C.After looking at the other team’s weak points, the coach made a new plan.
