2．阅读理解
One day, Susie was unhappy when she came home from school. \"What's the matter, my dear?\" asked her mother, drawing her to her side and smiling.
\"All our class must hand in compositions tomorrow. We must write 12 lines at least. But I can never write one. I'll have to go to school without a composition, for I won't copy one from a book, or ask you or papa to write one for me.\"
\"That's right,\" said her mother. \"You'll be happier with a poor composition, if it's your own, than with a fine one written by somebody else. But cheer up. Run into the garden and play. I'll call you in half an hour. Don't think about your composition now. Just have a good time.\" It seemed just a few minutes to Susie before she heard her mother calling her. She went into the house immediately — her hands full of sweet flowers, and her face red with exercise. Then her mother asked her to sit by the window with a nice piece of paper and a pencil, and write something about what she could see. \"Never mind your composition; do this to please me, and we'll talk about that later.\"
Although Susie thought her mother's request was strange, she knew she always had a good reason for everything she did. So she did as her mother requested.
As she looked out, she first saw the western sky and some bright, sunset clouds. \"Oh, mother, what a sunset!\"
\"Don't talk. Just write.\"
The pencil began moving rapidly across the paper. She wrote about the sunset clouds, the look of the distant hills, the streets, the river, the garden with its flowers, and the birds flying past the window. She forgot all about the terrible composition!
Just as she had reached the bottom of the page, her mother came in and said with a smile, \"Well, Susie, how does that composition come on?\"
\"Composition! You told me not to think about it, and I've never thought of it once. I've had such a nice time writing about what I could see from the window.\"
Mrs. Smith took the paper and read what Susie had written. She said, \"There, Susie, that's a very nice composition, really.\"
\"A composition! Is that a composition?\" Susie asked in surprise.
\"Yes, my dear, and a very good one, too, if we find a title for it,\" replied her mother. Then she added, \"I'm sure it will please your teacher, as it does me. You see, it's easy enough to write a composition if you have anything interesting to write about.\" （1）Susie was unhappy when she came home because _____. A. she was punished by her teacher B. she couldn't write a composition C. she forgot to take her composition home D. she didn't get on well with her classmates

（3）The title of Susie's composition might be _____. A. My Helpful Clever Mother B. The Beautiful Sights at Sunset C. How to Please Your Teacher D. How to Have a Pleasant Time
（4）What might happen the next morning? A. Susie's classmates would laugh at her. B. Susie's teacher would be angry with her. C. Susie's mother would ask her to stay at home. D. Susie would hand in her composition happily. 【答案】 （1）B （2）C （3）B （4）D

6．阅读理解
How we spend our time can be divided into three groups, or \"jars\". These would be the necessary tasks jar, the voluntary tasks jar and the happiness jar.
Every day, we spend time filling the necessary tasks jar. We fill this jar with useful things, like making money, housework, buying food. We then fill another jar with voluntary tasks. These are things that we do for others, but we may not enjoy them, such as taking children to activities and cooking family meals. Those jars are very important. If we don't fill them each day, our family won't be happy.
However, we often forget to fill the third jar --- the happiness jar. This is the jar that we fill with activities to make us happy. Is your happiness jar sometimes empty at the end of the day? We all have days like that. Between doing all the necessary and voluntary tasks, time flies quickly and before we know it, it is time for bed.
That is why each day we try to fill our happiness jar. Most days, I fill mine by going to the ballroom dance（社交舞） class with my husband and daughter. Between the music, the dancing and the friendship among the students, I always leave classes happier than when I entered.
Music is another way to make me happy. This week, I was glad to take part in an orchestra（管弦乐队） practice at my church（教堂）. A small group of us met to practice Christmas music for a church service. It was a time of fun, friendship and music making. At the end of the evening, my happiness jar was full.
This week, think about how you spent your time. Are you doing enough activities that bring joy to your life? Or are the necessary and voluntary tasks eating up all your time? Try to find ways to achieve a balance（获得平衡） among your three jars. At the end of the day, hopefully we've done all we can to make sure that our happiness jar is filled. （1）How many groups can we divide our time into?
A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four. （2）Which of the following is TRUE about the writer? A. She is always unhappy when she goes to the dance club.
B. She goes to the ballroom dance class to make herself happy every day. C. Dancing and music are the two usual ways that she makes herself happy. D. She takes her husband and daughter to dance club in order to make them happy. （3）What can we do to fill the happiness jar according to the passage?
A. Wash clothes B. Watch a film C. Mop the floor D. Look after children （4）What can we know from Paragraph 4 and 5? A. The writer took a class at church to practice music. B. The writer finds friendship is important for her happiness. C. The writer was invited to join an orchestra as she is good at singing. D. The writer was going to listen to music at church at Christmas. （5）The writer wrote this article mainly to _______________.
A. tell readers how to relax in daily life B. tell readers the best way to use their time
C. remind readers to take time to make themselves happy D. tell the importance of necessary and voluntary tasks 【答案】 （1）C （2）C （3）B （4）B （5）C
【解析】【分析】短文大意：主要讲述我们花费时间的方式可以分为三个罐子，分别是必要任务的罐子、自愿任务的罐子和幸福罐子。往往我们会忽视幸福罐。我们要找到方法平衡这三个罐子。一天结束下来，尽我们最大的努力确保我们的幸福罐是满的。

These are things that we do for others, but we may not enjoy them, such as taking children to activities and cooking family meals可知A,C D三个都是任务罐，所以看电影属于幸福罐子，故选B。
（4）推理判断题。根据Between the music, the dancing and the friendship among the students, I always leave classes happier than when I entered以及It was a time of fun, friendship and music making. At the end of the evening, my happiness jar was full可知，友谊对于她的幸福是重要的，故选B。
（5）主旨大意题。本文主要讲述我们花费时间的方式可以分为三个罐子，分别是必要任务的罐子、自愿任务的罐子和幸福罐子。往往我们会忽视幸福灌。我们要找到方法平衡这三个罐子。一天结束下来，尽我们最大的努力确保我们的幸福灌是满的。再根据At the end of the day, hopefully we've done all we can to make sure that our happiness jar is filled可知，提醒读者读者们花费时间使他们自己开心，故选C。

A new camera made by a company named Netatmo has facial recognition software （人脸识别系统） that can tell parents at work that their children have returned from school, or that a package （包裹） has been taken to their home. It can also tell them if a stranger has entered their home.
Janina Mattausch is a product marketing manager for Netatmo.
\"The common security （安全） cameras at present are not that smart. So, they can tell you if something is moving but they don't necessarily know if it's a human being or, ah, if it's your kid- they don't know the difference, so they will warn （警告） you all the time.\"
When family members enter a home, the new camera \"recognizes\" （识别） them and sends information to the owner's smartphone. The owner can choose to see the video then or later. But if an unknown person enters a home, the camera will send the owner a warning that will cause an alarm to sound on the owner's smartphone.
That is what happened recently to a smart home camera owner named Damien. He lives in Paris.

At first I told myself 'Oh, it must be a mistake, maybe I have to set the system again.' —but the notice on my phone was telling me that there was a movement in my flat and also a face that the software did not recognize.\"

I hated my one-eyed mom. I told myself that I would become successful in the near future, so I studied very hard. Later, I got accepted by the Seoul University. I left my mom and came to Seoul to study. Then I got married there. Now I am living happily as a successful man. I enjoy the life in
Seoul because it's a place that doesn't remind me of my mom and my past. This kind of happiness was getting bigger and bigger, until one day I saw my mom. She was still with her one eye.

I'm so sorry that I only have one eye, and I was an embarrassment for you. When you were very little, you got into an accident and lost your eye. As a mom, I couldn't stand watching you having to grow up with only one eye. So I gave you mine. I was so proud of my son to see a whole new world for me with that eye.
