        Happiness is for everyone. You don't need to care about those people who have beautiful
    houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of
    money and so on. Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those
    who have cars may want to walk on the country roads at their free time.   
        In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble
    at school, your friends will help you, when you study hard on your lessons, your parents are
    always taking good care of your life and your health; when you get success, your friends will
    say congratulations to you; when you do something wrong, people around you will help you to
    correct it. And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are
    your happiness. If you notice a bit of them, you can see that happiness is always around you. 
        Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can
    also say you are very happy, because you have something else that can't be bought with money.
    When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more
    chances to challenge yourself. So you cannot always say you are poor and you have bad luck. As
    the saying goes, life is like a revolving door, when it closes, it also opens. If you take every chance
    you get, you can be a happy and lucky person.
    1. Those who have big houses may often feel _____.
    [     ]
    A. happy
    B. lonely
    C. free
    D. excited
    2. When you fall down in a PE class, both your teacher and your classmates will _____.
    [     ]
    A. laugh at you
    B. play jokes on you
    C. quarrel with you
    D. help you up
    3. What will your friends say to you when you make great progress?
    [     ]
    A. Oh, so do I.
    B. Congratulations.
    C. Good luck.
    D. It's just so-so.
    4. Which idea is NOT TRUE according to the passage?
    [     ]
    A. People who have cars would never like to walk in the open air.
    B. You can get help from others when you make mistakes.
    C. You can still be a happy person even if you have little money.
    D. Happiness is always around you though difficulties come towards you.
    5. Which of the following is this passage about?
    [     ]
    A. Bad luck.
    B. Good luck.
    C. Happiness.
    D. Life.

        All living things on the earth need other living things to live. Nothing lives alone. Most
    animals must live in a group, and even a plant grows close together with others of the
    same kind. Sometimes one living thing kills another, one eats and the other is eaten. Each
    kind of life eats another kind of life in order to live, and together they form a food chain.
    Some food chains become broken up if one of the links disappears.
        All life need sunlight to live on. But only plants can use sunlight directly. Plants are
    "factories". They make food from sunlight, water and things in the soil and air. Plants feed
    all other living things. Animals can only use the sun's energy after it has been changed into
    food by plants. Some animals feed directly on plants, others eat smaller animals. Meat-eating
    animals are only eating plants directly.
        What about human beings? We are members of many food chains. We eat wheat, rice,
    vegetables. fruits and so on. We also eat meat and drink mild. But men often break up the
    food chains. They kill wild animals. They also make rivers, lakes and seas dirty. When these
    rivers, lakes and seas are polluted, the fish in them can not be eaten. If men eat the fish, they
    will get diseases.
        Each form of life is linked to all others. Breaking the lines puts all life in danger.
    1. How does every living thing on the earth live?
    [     ]
    A. Each plant can live alone.
    B. Each animal can live alone.
    C. If living things want to live, they must kill each other.
    D. Every living thing on the earth cannot live without others.
    2. Which living things can use the sun's energy directly?
    [     ]
    A. Animals.
    B. Plants.
    C. Both A and
    B. D.All living things.
    3. What do plants make food from? 
       They make food from _____.
    [     ]
    A. sunlight, water and things in the soil and air
    B. water, sunlight and things in the soil
    C. water and things in the soil and air
    D. water, sunlight and things in the soil
    4. Who often break up the food chain?
    [     ]
    A. Human beings.
    B. Animals.
    C. Plants and animals.
    D. Men and wild animals.
    5. Which of the following do you think is the best title for this passage?
    [     ]
