16．A friend of mine，in response to a conversation we were having about the injustices of life，asked me the question："Who said life was going to be fair，or that it was even meant to be fair？"Her question was a good one．It reminded me of something I was taught as a youngster-life isn't fair．One of the mistakes many of us make is that we feel sorry for ourselves or for others，thinking that life should be fair or that someday it will be．It's not and it won't．
One of the nice things about accepting the fact that life isn't fair is that it keeps us from feeling sorry for ourselves by encouraging us to do the very best we can with what we have．Accepting this fact also keeps us from feeling sorry for others because we are reminded that everyone is dealt a different hand； everyone has unique strengths and problems in the process of growing up，facing the reality and making decisions，and everyone has those times that they feel wounded or unfairly treated．
The fact that life isn't fair doesn't mean we shouldn't do everything in our power to improve our own lives or the world as a whole．On the contrary，it suggests that we should．When we don't recognize or admit life isn't fair，we tend to feel pity for others and for ourselves，a self-defeating emotion that does nothing except make everyone feel worse．When we do recognize life isn't fair，however，we feel sympathy for others and for ourselves．And sympathy is a heartfelt emotion that delivers loving kindness to everyone it touches．The next time you find yourself thinking about the injustices of the world，try reminding yourself of this very basic fact．You may be surprised that it can push you out of self-pity and into helpful action．

65．The author thought of his friend's question as a good one becauseB．
A．he also wanted to know who held such an opinion
B．like his friend，he also thought life was unfair
C．it made him regret something during his childhood
D．he learned something from the question as a youngster
66．Accepting the injustices of life willD．
A．stop us making everything perfect
B．let us deal with others differently
C．get us to feel sorry for others  
D．inspire us to make every effort
67．In the last paragraph，"this very basic fact"refers to the fact thatA．
A．life is not and will not be fair 
B．you should not pity for others
C．pity is a self-defeating emotion 
D．sympathy is a heartfelt emotion
68．From the passage，we can learn that the author's attitude to life isD．
A．indifferent
B．self-pity  
C．negative  
D．positive．

4．Given that many people's moods （情緒）are regulated by the chemical action of chocolate，it was probably only a matter of time before somebody made the chocolate shop similar to a drugstore of Chinese medicine．Looking like a setting from the film Charlie &the Chocolate Factory，Singapore's Chocolate Research Facility （CRF） has over 100varieties of chocolates．its founder is Chris Lee who grew up at his parents'comer store with one hand almost always in the jar of sweets．
  If the CRF seems to be a smart idea，that's because Lee is not merely a seasoned salesperson but also head of a marketing department that has business relations with big names such as Levi's and Sony．That idea surely results in the imagination at work when it comes to making different flavored（味道）chocolates．
  The CRF's produce is"green"．made within the country and divided into 10lines，with the Alcohol Series being the most popular．The Exotic Series一with Sichuan pepper，red bean （豆）．cheese and other flavors一also does well and is fun to taste．And for chocolate snobs，who think that they have a better knowledge of chocolate than others，the Connoisseur Series uses cocoa beans from Togo，Cuba，Venezuela，and Ghana，among others．

64．What is good about chocolate？C．
A．It serves as a suitable gift．
B．It works as an effective medicine．

A．He knows the importance of research．
B．He learns form shops of similar types．
C．He has the support of many big names
D．He has a lot of marketing experience．
66．Which line of the CRF produce sells best？C．
A．The Connoisseur Series．   B．The Exotic Series．
C．The Alcohol Series．       D．The Sichuan Series．
67．The words"chocolate snobs"in Paragraph 3probably refer to people whoA
A．a(chǎn)re particular about chocolate     B．know little about cocoa beans
C．look down upon others              D．like to try new flavors．

1．It is six o'clock in the morning．You are asleep in my left arm and I am learning the art of one-handed typing．Your mother，more tired yet more happy than I've ever known her，is sound asleep in the room next door．
When you're older we'll tell you that you were born in Hong Kong in the lunar year of the pig．"It's a boy，so lucky，"our neighbours told us．They said you were the first baby to be born in the block this year．This，they told us，was good Feng Shui，in other words，a positive sign．Naturally your mother and I were only too happy to believe that．
Your coming has turned me upside down and inside out．I am pained by the memory of each suffering child I have come across on my journeys as a journalist．To tell you the truth，it's nearly too much for me to even think of the children being hurt and abused and killed．
Last October，in Afghanistan，when you were growing inside your mother，I met Sharja，aged twelve，motherless，fatherless，guiding me through the grey ruins of her home．Everything was gone，she told me．
There is another memory of Rwanda，and the churchyard where I found a mother and her three young children huddled（蜷縮） together where they'd been beaten to death．The children had died holding on to their mother．
Daniel，these memories explain some of the protectiveness I feel for you，and the occasional moments of blind terror when I imagine anything bad happening to you．

53．We can see that this text is written toC．
A．the author's wife       
B．the author's neighbour
C．Daniel        
D．a(chǎn) suffering child

A．he wants his son to care for others
B．he feels more pain thinking about them as a father
C．he hopes to forget the tragedies he witnessed
D．his experience has affected his mental health
55．The underlined word"blind"in the last paragraph meansD．
A．unable to see             
B．meaningful
C．not clear                 
D．not based on reason

8．Do you know that people without friends are more likely to die an early death？It's true．However，not all the friends are helpful to up your chances of living a long，happy life．The following types of friends are just what you need to keep the doctor away．
1．A Loyal Best Friend
Sometimes a loyal best friend is the only thing you need to stay calm．Everyone needs a non-judgmental friend who will support them no matter what．This is the kind of friend who knows all of your deepest and darkest secrets，but still loves you all the same．
2．An Honest Confidant
There are certain situations in life where we need to hear the harsh truth．It is really hard for you to face it，but that's what the honest confidant is for．Friends are supposed to be honest with each other．If you find someone who is bravely honest with you （in a constructive way），then hold on to this person!People like that are hard to come by these days．
3．A Polar Opposite
If you only develop friendships with others who follow the same beliefs，customs，and values as you do，chances are you're kept away from the rest of the world．Try to break out of your comfortable zone and befriend people who hold opposing views．You'll learn to accept people who don't see the world exactly the way you see it．
4．A Work Pal
Do you know that with a full-time job，you spend at least 50%of your waking hours at work？Depressing，isn't it？The more isolated you are at work，the more depressed you get．That's why it makes sense to get a work pal to chat with to help you get through the week．You spend 50%of your waking hours at work，and so does your work pal．You'll find it much easier to complain about work with someone than to eat lunch alone every day．
With them in your life，you're bound to live a long and happy life!

46．A loyal best friend mustBaccording to the passage．
A．be one of family members
B．love you whoever you are
C．stay with you most of time

47．Which of the following does NOT belong to harsh truth？C
A．You might fail many times in your life．
B．Life will never be perfect．
C．Your parents will love you forever．
D．You have to work with those you dislike．
48．You need a Polar Opposite as a friend because he willA 
A．help open your eyes to a different world
B．teach us to build a comfortable zone
C．support you no matter what you do
D．change you into an entirely different person
49．We can infer that a work palC
A．never complains about your work    B．makes you feel isolated at work
C．works with you most of time        D．often prepares meals for you
50．The author wrote the passage in order toD

D．tell us what kind of friends are beneficial．
