Why I’ve chosen joy

“Well，ten years ago there were several others besides myself who bet you wouldn’t be around today.”

Those aren’t the most comforting words you want to hear roll off the end of your family doctor’s tongue.Nevertheless，he had thrown out the words and there was no reeling (卷) them in.

That was a few years back and I guess most people are still in awe (敬畏) of my continued existence.

“What is it you’ve got？”

“I have multiple sclerosis (多发性硬化症)．” “How long have you had it？” “I’ve had it for over 36 years.”

I have multiple sclerosis and I am always happy to inform those who ask and are interested.I’m not proud of it.I don’t like it，but I am blessed because of it and I have learned much through the years.

This seized the myelin (髓磷脂) surrounding my nerve fibers and took away some of my abilities.I have been slowed down，but I am better able to view the important things in my little corner of the world，not to mention the world as a whole.I’ve learned to look for the goodness that lies in those who cross my path each day.I have found that it’s not how much you get done in one day，but how well you do those things you manage to complete.

I’ve also seen joy in the little things life presents.I have learned to look for laughter instead of tears.But when the tears come as they sometimes do，I let them absorb the pain，for with the pain can come understanding.And my eyes have been opened to the needs of others，needs I was never aware of before.I have even learned to take in and sort out comments expressed by others.If they are not uplifting (令人振奋的) or helpful，I can at least brush aside minor infractions (侵犯) and gain a laugh from well－intended remarks.Problems，troubles and ill－

considered remarks can either make us bitter，or we can choose to laugh at them and be joyful.I choose joy!

1．What does the writer mean by saying “They are still in awe of my continued existence.”？

A．They are amazed that I am still alive. B．They are afraid that I will die.

C．They still think of my existence a threat. D．They admire my positive attitude. 2．Which of the following is TRUE? A．The author has learned to hide her pain.

B．The author felt bitter when she heard her family doctor’s words. C．The author is unable to move now that she has multiple sclerosis. D．The author’s sickness has taught her to see the good in people. 3．The author uses the word “culprit” in Paragraph 9 to mean ________.

A．virus C．disease

B．cancer D．criminal

4．What can we learn from the text?

A．Hurtful remarks cause permanent damage. B．Serious illnesses always make people stronger. C．We need to face our problems bravely.

D．We should treat other’s ill－considered remarks as jokes.

San Francisco，California 94155 November 20,2010 Dear Sirs，

As a concerned parent，I am writing to protest your recent advertisement for Electro－Robo seen in local media in California.Specifically，I am referring to newspaper and magazine ads (attached to this letter)published the week of November 15.

Children respond to your type of advertising in an immature way；that is，they are unable to understand how expensive some toys are for middle－class parents.Further，your product is violent in nature.Your advertisement gives children the impression that it’s fine to have “two guns and laser eyes.” You also suggest that children need your toy to protect them “when you go outside.” This is not a healthy attitude for children to have.

I hope you will stop advertising your product in such a way that may harm our children.

Sincerely yours， (Mrs.) Alma Hernandez End

Every boy dreams of being in control of a robot，and AmToy can make your dream come true.Electro－Robo is the world’s first fully automatic robot with radio control.Standing 80 centimeters tall，Electro－Robo is like a friend at home.He can walk，talk，and even shake your hand！He has two guns and laser eyes to help you defend yourself when you go outside with him.Every boy needs Electro－Robo!

Ask your Mom and Dad to buy Electro－Robo for your birthday or for Christmas，which is coming up soon.Imagine that you are in control of your friend for life，Electro－Robo!

Available at all toy stores and department stores.NOW! 1．What is the purpose of the letter? A．To complain about a broken toy. B．To oppose the advertising. C．To order a gift for christmas. D．To apply for a job in a toy company.

Preparing for a long trip

Six volunteers will stay in a mock (模拟的) spacecraft for 520 days in an experiment to discover how astronauts will handle the first flight to Mars.

The project，called Mars 500，was set up by the Russian and European space agencies to study the effects of long－term space flight on the mind and body.

Starting June 3，the volunteers－three Russians，a Chinese，a Frenchman and an Italian－will spend much of their time in a spaceship the size of a double－decker bus.They will have no direct contact with

their families while in the spacecraft，which will never leave the Russian space agency.They will have no access to telephones，the Internet，natural light or fresh air.

Each man will have a tiny private room.They will be able to have a shower every 10 days.Everywhere else，the men will be watched by cameras around the clock.

The volunteers will spend eight hours a day on tests to monitor each other’s physical and psychological (心理的) condition and a number of scientific experiments.They will spend eight hours sleeping，while eight will be leisure time.

The six men will eat the same meals eaten by real－life astronauts on the International Space Station and will also grow their own vegetables in a mini－greenhouse.

They will earn ￡85 (842 Yuan) a day and will be allowed to abandon ship if they get sick or if they can’t stand the psychological pressure.

The first 250 days will represent the trip from Earth to Mars－a 30－day stay on the Red Planet.The last 240 days will cover the long journey home.

The Chinese volunteer,28－year－old Wang Yue，is a coach at China’s Aerospace Training Center.He was picked from thousands of

volunteers after a series of examinations including a physical check－up (体检) and psychological examinations.He says he’s going to practice Chinese calligraphy (书法) and traditional painting during his spare time on the spacecraft.He has also prepared a lot of paper cuts to teach other volunteers Chinese paper－cutting skills.“Mars 500 is also an experiment in cross－cultural learning，” Wang said.“We come from different culture backgrounds and will be interested in learning about each other’s countries.I heard that the Russians are going to teach us international chess.”

1．The six men are to stay in a mock spacecraft because they ________.

A．need to examine the spacecraft before it is launched B．have been trained to go on a mission to Mars

C．are participants of a research project on the effects of long－term living in space

D．are getting paid to experience a fun and healthy lifestyle 2．During the 520 days，the men can enjoy ________. A．eating normal food at each meal B．checking e－mail and the latest news C．showering each day

D．bringing personal things with them

3．Which of the following is mentioned in the article?

B．Long－term life in a spacecraft may affect astronauts physically and mentally.

C．Married people are said to be unsuitable for life in space. D．Astronauts have very interesting things to do each day. 4．The underlined word “simulate” most probably means ________. A．represent C．cover

B．live D．imitate

5．According to Wang Yue，________.
