第三部分 理解（共20小题，每小题2分，满分40分）
A
How often one hears children wishing they were grown-ups, and old people wishing they were young again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives hi without wasting his tie in useless regrets.
Childhood is a tie when there are few responsibilities to ake life difficult. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved, whatever he ay do. It is ipossible that he will ever again in his life be given so uch without having to do anything in return. What's ore, life is always giving new things to the child--things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well-known. But a child has his pains: he is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is repeatedly being told not to do soething, or being punished for what he has done.
When a young an starts to ake his own living, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his roo, but has to work if he wants to live cofortably. If he spends ost of his tie playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he ay go to prison. If, however, he works hard, keeps out of troubles and has good health, he can have the great happiness of building up for hiself his own position in society.
56. According to Paragraph 2, the writer thinks that _______.
A. life for a child is fairly easyB. a child is always loved whatever he does
C. a child ust do soething in return for what he getsD. only children are interested in life

D. young en can have the greatest happiness if they work hard
58. The paragraph following this passage will ost probably discuss _________.
A. exaples of successful young en B. how to build up one's position in society
C. what to do when one has probles in life D. joys and pains of old people
B
Happiness is for everyone. You don't need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swiing pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of oney and so on. Why? Because those who have cars ay want to walk on the country roads in their free tie.
In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, you friends will help you; when you work hard at 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 soething wrong, people around you will help you to correct it. And when you do soething good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are your happiness. If you notice a bit of the, you can see that happiness is always around you.
Happiness is not the sae as oney. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy, because you have soething else that can't be bought with oney. When you eet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have ore 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(旋转的) door: when it closes, it also opens. If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person.

A. Only those who have cars. B. Only those who have their own happiness.

Why do people drink too uch, eat too uch, soke cigarettes or take drugs? What’s to blae for all the bad behavior? ost people would say that, while these self-destructive (自我毁灭的) acts can have any root causes, they all have one obvious thing in coon: they are all exaples of failures of self-control, lacking the will power to resist the.
According to a recent study, however, if you really think about it, soething about that siple answer doesn’t quite ake sense. In fact, it turns out that soeties it’s having will power that really gets you into trouble.
Think back to the tie you took your very first sip (啜饮) of beer. Disgusting, wasn’t it? When y father gave e y first taste of beer as a teenager, I wondered why anyone would voluntarily drink it. And soking? No one enjoys their first cigarette — it tastes awful. So even though soking, and drinking alcohol or coffee, can becoe teptation (诱惑) you need will power to resist, they never, ever start out that way.
Just getting past those first horrible experiences actually requires a lot of self-control. Ironically (讽刺的是), only those who can control theselves well, rather than give in to the, can ever coe to soeday develop a “taste” for Budweiser beer, arlboro cigarettes, or dark-roasted Starbucks coffee. We do it for social acceptance. We force ourselves to consue alcohol, cigarettes, coffee and even illegal drugs, in order to see experienced, grown-up, and cool.
These bad habits aren’t self-control failures — far fro it. They are voluntary choices, and they are in fact self-control successes. Self-control is siply a tool to be put to soe use, helpful or harful. To live happy and productive lives, we need to develop not only our self-control, but also the wisdo to ake good decisions about when and where to apply it.
72. What do ost people think causes bad behavior?
A. Not having enough will power. B. Being forced by others.
C. Enjoying their first experiences. D. Following the exaples of their friends.
73. The author entions his experience in the third paragraph to prove ____.
A. drinking beer is harful to the health of teenagers
B. will power helps develop bad habits soeties
C. self-control should be developed when one is young
D. everyone can be challenged by different teptations
74. In the last paragraph, the author stresses that ____.
A. without self-control, no one can succeed
B. bad habits don’t always lead to bad results
C. people can develop wisdo fro bad behavior
D. applying self-control correctly is iportant
75. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. y First Sip of BeerB. Do You Have Will Power ?
C. Dark Side of Self-controlD. Will Power Benefits Us
