“The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence.” That’s one of the best-known old 【小题1】(say) in English. It means other places often look beer, more interesting than the place 【小题2】 you live.

Troubles in life are sure 【小题3】(appear)if we always think that way. We will not be able to see the goodness of our own lives, 【小题4】(believe)that we have nothing good to work with. We’ll lose focus, self-confidence, and even hope. We might feel sad and 【小题5】(anxiety), feeling that what we have cannot ever be enough. 【小题6】(bad)still, it leads us to turn away from the main task of life — to make the most of what we have.

In fact the grass is not always greener on the other side of the fence. It only appears that way. The grass is the greenest where it 【小题7】(water). When crossing over fences, carry water 【小题8】 you and take good care of the grass. The way to happiness is 【小题9】(actual)quite simple — the secret is to learn to value what you have 【小题10】 not to envy what you don’t have.

It was Mother’s Day morning last year and I was doing my shopping at our local supermarket with my five-year-old son, Tenyson. As we were leaving, we found that only minutes earlier an elderly woman had fallen over at the entrance and had hit her head on the concrete. Her husband was with her, but there was blood everywhere and the woman was embarrassed and clearly in shock.
Walking towards the scene, Tenyson became very upset about what had happened to the couple. He said to me, “Mum, it’s not much fun falling over in front of everyone.”
At the front of the supermarket a charity(慈善) group had set up a stand selling cooked sausages and flowers to raise funds. Tenyson suggested that we should buy the lady a flower. “It will make her feel better,” he said. I was amazed that he’d come up with such a sweet idea. So we went over to the flower seller and asked her if we could buy a flower for the lady to cheer her up. “Just take it,” she replied. “I can’t take your money for such a wonderful gesture.”
By now paramedics(救援人员)had arrived, and were attending the injured woman. As we walked up to her, my son became______by all the blood and medical equipment. He said he was just too scared to go up to her. ZXXK
Instead I gave the flower to the woman’s husband and told him, “ My son was very upset for your wife and wanted to give her this flower to make her feel better.”
At that, the old man started crying and said, “Thank you so much, you have a wonderful son. Happy Mother’s Day to you.”
The man then bent down and gave his wife the flower, telling her who it was from. Though badly hurt and shaken, the old lady looked up at Tenyson with love in her eyes and gave him a little smile.
【小题1】What dose the author intend to tell us?

   Our most commonly held code for success is broken. Conventional wisdom(普遍看法)holds that if we work hard we will be more successful,and if we are more successful,then we’ll be happy. If we can just find that great job,win that next promotion,lose those five pounds,happiness will follow. But recent discoveries in the field of positive psychology have shown that this code is actually backward:Happiness fuels success,not the other way around. When we are positive,our brains become more engaged,creative,motivated,energetic,and productive at work. These discoveries have been repeatedly proved by rigid research in psychology and neuroscience(神经科学),management studies,and the bottom lines of organizations around the globe.

In The Happiness Advantage,Shawn Achor,who spent over a decade living,researching,and lecturing at Harvard University,draws on his own research—including one of the largest studies of happiness and potential at Harvard and others at companies like UBS to fix this broken code. Using stories and case studies from his work with CEOs of Fortune 500 in 42 countries,Achor explains how we can reprogram our brains to become more positive in order to gain a competitive ability at work.

Based on seven practical,actionable principles that have been tried and tested everywhere from classrooms to boardrooms,stretching from Argentina to Zimbabwe,he shows us how we can capitalize on The Happiness Advantage to improve our performance and maximize our potential.

A must-read for everyone trying to stand out in a world of increasing workloads and stress,The Happiness Advantage isn’t only about how to become happier at work. It’s about how to get the benefits of a happier and more positive mode of thinking to achieve the extraordinary in our work and in our lives.

【小题1】What do we know about the new discoveries in Paragraph1?
A.Conventional code for success is totally useless.
B.The more we are successful, the happier we are.
C.Positive psychology is really backward.
D.Happiness contributes greatly to success.
【小题2】Why did Shawn Achor write the book The Happiness Advantage?
A.To reprogram one’s brain to be healthier.
B.To make people more positive and competitive.
C.To study stories and cases of CEOs.
D.To make lectures at Harvard University.
【小题3】The underlined phrase“capitalize on”in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to________.
A.provide fund forB.make full use of
C.in search ofD.stand out for
【小题4】What is the write’s purpose of writing the passage?
A.To help people stand out in the world.
B.To arouse people’s sense of happiness.
C.To help people decrease the work stress.
D.To strongly recommend the book.
