三、阅读理解。（共25小题，共计25分）

A

Volunteering takes up our time, energy(精力)，and sometimes，money. But why do people still do that? Here are the reasons：

Volunteering is good for others. There are many people in need. Governments (政府）and professionals try to meet everyone’s need, but it’s difficult for them to do it all. That is why some people become volunteers. They can give a hand to the people who need help. If people only think of themselves, the world will become a bad place. But when we try to help each other, we can help make our earth a better and happier home. Volunteers and volunteer groups can bring food for hungry people, provide homes or clothes for those who need them, protect (保护）wildlife and natural areas. They care for people who are sick or disabled. They can help people learn to read or do better at school.

On the other hand, volunteering is good for yourselves. You might get in return for your giving, for example, getting more active and healthier, spending time doing what you really care about, and having fun!

根据短文内容，判断下列句子正误。正确的用“A”表示，不正确的用“B”表示。

31. The word needs volunteers because there are many people in need.

32. It is difficult for governments to meet everyone’s need.

33. Volunteers can help people in trouble, but can’t protect the environment.

34. Volunteers can become happier and healthier in return.

35. The author gives three reasons to prove why people want to be volunteers.

B

Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. Aristotle, a Greek thinker, said, “Happiness depends upon ourselves.” In other words, we make our own haziness. 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 —that we fail to enjoy the present You should enjoy life’s simple pleasures (快乐), such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite 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, and have hobbies where you forget your problems and time. Many people experience this dancing, or playing a sport, such as swimming. You can forget about your problems, and only think about the activity.

Finally, many people find haziness 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 to buy food for an elderly or simply help out around the house by washing the dishes.
