There are two types of people in the world.Although they have equal degree of health

Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage

There are two types of people in the world.Although they have equal degree of health and wealth and other comforts of life, one becomes happy, while the other becomes unhappy.This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, events and the resulting effects upon their minds.

People who are to be happy fix their attention on the convenience of things: the pleasant parts of conversation, the well prepared dishes, the goodness of the wine and the fine weather.They enjoy all the cheerful things.Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the opposite things.Therefore, they are continually dissatisfied.By their remarks, they sour the pleasure of society, offend(hurt) many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere.If this turn of mind was founded in nature, such unhappy persons would be the more to be pitied.The intention of ccriticizing and being disliked is perhaps taken up by imitation.It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors.The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it realize its bad effects on their interests and tastes.I hope this little warning may be of service to them, and help them change this habit.

Though in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination, it has serious results in life since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck.Those people offend many others; nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect.This frequently puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments.If they aim at getting some advantages in social position or fortune, nobody wishes them success.Nor will anyone start a step or speak a word to favor their hopes.If they bring on themselves public objections, no one will defend or excuse them, and many will join to criticize their wrong doings.These should change this bad habit and be pleased with what is pleasing, without worrying needlessly about themselves and others.If they do not, it will be good for others to avoid any contact with them.Otherwise, it can be disagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient, especially when one becomes mixed up in their quarrels.

21.According to the passage,those who are unhappy _______.

A.always consider things differently from others

B.are usually influenced by the result of certain things

C.can discover the unpleasant part of certain things

D.usually have the habit of finding faults with others

22. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?

A.All the unhappy people should be pitied even more.

B.The unhappy people are critical about everything.

C.Most unhappy people want to get rid of their habit.

D.The unhappy people are not content with themselves.

23. The phrase "sour the pleasures of society" (Para. 2) most probably means "__________".

A.enjoy the displeasure of society B.feel happy with the pleasures of society

C.make the company of others less enjoyable D.become discontent with their nation

24. The unhappy people's habit can cause serious consequences. Which of the following is NOT one of the consequences according to the passage?

A.When the unhappy people want to succeed, no one wishes them to.

B.The unhappy people can offend many other people without knowing.

C.It brings on deep sorrow to the unhappy people themselves as well as others.

D.Many people may join to criticize the unhappy people's misconduct.

25. According to the author, if such unhappy people will not change their bad behavior, the solution to the problem is that __________.

A.people should understand and forgive them

B.people should avoid contact with them

C.people should help them get rid of the bad habit

D.people should show more respect to them

Text 1

Some people ought to defend the workaholic.

These people are unjustly accused, abused, and defamed -- often termed sick or morbid or on the border of pathology. About 30% of American business and commerce is carried on the shoulders of workaholics. The ratio might exist in art and science too.

Workaholics are the achievers, the excelers. There is a national conspiracy against excellence and. undue admiration of commonness and mediocrity. It is as if we are against those who make uncommon sacrifices because they enjoy doing something.

Some famous psychologists say that the workaholic has an inferiority complex which leads to overcompensation. This is certainly not the case. Inferiority, or low esteem, describes laziness more accurately than it describes dedication.

We do not seem to realize that very little excellence is achieved by living a well-balanced life.Edison, Ford, Einstein, Freud all had single-minded devotion to work whereby they sacrificed many things, including family and friendship. The accusation is made that workaholics bear guilt by not being good parents or spouses. But guilt can exist in the balanced life also. Think how many "normal" people and middle-ages who have never done anything well -- they are going to settle for less than what they could have become.

A.who enjoy work more than anything else.

B.who make greater contributions than others.

Passage Three Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage. Lead deposits, whi

Passage Three Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.

Lead deposits, which accumulated in soil and snow during the 1960's and 70's, were primarily the result of leaded gasoline emissions originating in the United States. In the twenty years that the Clean Air Act has mandated unleaded gas use in the United States, the lead accumulation world-wide has decreased significantly.

A study published recently in the journal Nature shows that air-borne leaded gas emissions

from the United States were the leading contributor to the high concentration of lead in the snow in Greenland. The new study is a result of the continued research led by Dr. Charles Boutron, an expert on the impact of heavy metals on the environment at the National Center for Scientific Research in France. A study by Dr. Boutron published in 1991 showed that lead levels in arctic(北极的 ) snow were declining.

In his new study, Dr. Boutron found the ratios of the different forms of lead in the leaded gasoline used in the United States were different from the ratios of European, Asian and Canadian gasolines and thus enabled scientists to differentiate (分区) the lead sources. The dominant lead

ratio found in Greenland snow matched that found in gasoline from the United States.

In a study published in the journal Ambio, scientists found that lead levels in soil in the North-eastern United States had decreased markedly since the introduction of unleaded gasoline.Many scientists had believed that the lead would stay in soil and snow for a longer period.

The authors of the Ambio study examined samples of the upper layers of soil taken from thesame sites of 30 forest floors in New England, New York and Pennsylvania in 1980 and in 1990.

The forest environment processed and redistributed the lead faster than the scientists had expected.

Scientists say both studies demonstrate that certain parts of the ecosystem (生态系统 ) re-spond rapidly to reductions in atmospheric pollution, but that these findings should not be used as a license to pollute.

21. The study published in the journal Nature indicates that

A.the Clean Air Act has not produced the desired results

B.lead deposits in arctic snow are on the increase

C.lead will stay in soil and snow longer than expected

D.the US is the major source of lead pollution in arctic snow
