During the winter break I lost my wallet. At the first，I didn’t really worry because I think it was in my room somewhere. Week went by and I started to worry because some important things were in it but I still didn’t find it. I asked my parents that they had seen my wallet. They both said no，what made me more worried. So I started searching my wallet everywhere in the house，but I had no lucky. I got a bit sadly. Then something strange told myself to go to my father’s car.  Believing it or not，my wallet was just under the seat in the car.

【分析】
这是一篇记叙文。记叙了作者寻找钱包的经过。
【详解】1.考查固定短语。句意：起初，我并不担心，因为我以为它在我房间的某个地方。固定短语at first“起初”，故去掉the。
2.考查动词时态。句意同上。根据上文可知事情发生在过去，故应用一般过去时，故think改thought。
3.考查名词的数。句意：几周过去了，我开始担心，因为里面有一些重要的东西，但我仍然没有找到它。week为可数名词，前面没有冠词故应用复数形式。故Week改为Weeks。
4.考查连接词。句意：我问父母有没有看到我的钱包。本句为宾语从句，从句中不缺少成分，表示“是否”，故应用if/whether。故that改为if/whether。
5.考查定语从句连接词。句意：他们都说没有，这让我更加担心。本句为非限定性定语从句修饰上文整个句子，且做主语，故应用which。故what改为which。
6.考查固定短语。句意：所以我开始在家里到处找我的钱包，但是我没有找到。短语search for“寻找”。故my前面添加for。
7.考查名词。句意同上。短语have no luck“没有运气”，故lucky改为luck。
8.考查形容词。句意：我有点难过。get此处为系动词后跟形容词作表语，故sadly改为sad。
9.考查人称代词。句意：然后一件奇怪的事情告诉我去我父亲的车上找。短语tell sb. to do sth.“告诉某人做某事”，故myself改为me。
10.考查固定短语。句意：信不信由你，我的钱包就在汽车座位下面。短语believe it or not“信不信由你”，故Believing改为Believe。
三、 阅读理解
21.    Our eating habits are very important for good health and a strong body. There are times when most of us would prefer sweets and ice-cream to meet and rice. Sweets and ice-cream are not bad for the stomach if we eat at the end of a meal. If we eat before a meal, they may take away our appetite(食欲). It is important for us to eat our meal at the same time each day. When we feel hungry, it is a sign that our body needs food. When we feel angry or excited, we may not want to eat. A long time ago, in England some judges used to decide whether a man was telling truth by giving him some dry bread. If the man could not swallow the bread, it was a sign that he was not telling the truth. He was telling lies. Though this seems very strange and rather foolish, it is indeed an excellent way of finding out the truth. A man who is worrying about something had difficulty in swallowing anything dry. Because he loses his appetite and does not want to eat.

63. We have to form good eating habits because _____.
  A. we want to keep fit                           B. we enjoy our meals
  C. we want to eat more                         D. we want to save time
64. According to the passage we may eat sweets and ice-cream _____.
  A. when we are happy                          B. when we have a good appetite
  C. after a meal                                     D. before a meal
65. When does the speaker suggest it would be better to have our meals?
  A. When our work is over                     B. At the regular time every day
  C. When the meal is still hot                  D. When every family member is home
66. If a man is worrying he _____.
  A. has no appetite                                 B. wants to eat more food
  C. wants to drink                                  D. seems rather foolish

22. I live in the land of Disney, Hollywood and year-round sun. You may think people in such an attractive and exciting, fun-filled place are happier than others. If so, you have some mistaken ideas about the nature of happiness.
Many intelligent people still consider happiness equal to fun. The truth is that fun and happiness have little or nothing in common. Fun is what we experience during an act. Happiness is what we experience after an act. It is a deeper, more lasting emotion.
Going to an amusement park or ball game, watching a movie or television, are fun activities that help us relax, temporarily forget our problems and maybe even laugh. But they do not bring happiness, because their positive effects end when the fun ends.
I have often thought that if Hollywood stars have a role to play, it is to teach us that happiness has nothing to do with fun. These rich, beautiful individuals have constant access to glamorous parties, fancy cars, expensive homes, everything that spells “happiness”. But in memoir (回忆录) after memoir, famous people expose the unhappiness hidden beneath all their fun depression, alcoholism (酗酒), drug addiction, broken marriages, troubled children and extreme loneliness.
Ask an unmarried man why he refuses to get married even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfying. If he’s honest, he will tell you that he is afraid of making a commitment (承诺). For commitment is in fact quite painful. The single life is filled with fun, adventure and excitement. Marriage has such moments, but they are not its most distinguishing features.
Similarly, couples that choose not to have children are deciding in favor of painless fun over painful happiness. They can dine out whenever they want and sleep as late as they want. Couples with babies are lucky to get a whole night’s sleep or a three-day vacation. I don’t know any parent who would choose the word fun to describe raising children.
The way people stick to the belief that a fun-filled, pain-free life equals happiness actually reduces their chances of ever achieving real happiness. If fun and pleasure are equal to happiness, then pain must be equal to unhappiness. But, in fact, the opposite is true More times than not, things that lead to happiness involve some pain.
As a result, many people avoid the very efforts that are the source of true happiness. They fear the pain unavoidably brought by such things as marriage, raising children, professional achievement, religious commitment and self-improvement.
Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun is one of the most liberating (解放) realizations we can ever come to. It liberates time now we can devote more hours to activities that can truly increase our happiness. It liberates money buying that new car or those fancy clothes that will do nothing to increase our happiness now seems pointless. And it liberates us from envy we now understand that all those rich and glamorous people we were so sure are happy because they are always having so much fun actually may not be happy at all.
71. According to the passage, which of the following people are more likely to achieve happiness?
A. People living in fun-filled places.    B. People taking pains to raise children.
C. People living a wealthy life.        D. People who are free from responsibility.
72. According to the writer, an important role Hollywood stars have to play is to ______.
A. give audience enough fun     B. write memoirs to introduce their lives
C. tell people what happiness is     D. show unhappiness beneath fun
73. In the writer’s opinion, marriage ______.
　A. means responsibility      B. means the end of fun
  C. leads to raising children   D. leads to less sleep
74. Many people fail to enjoy real happiness because ______.
A. they believe fun is equal to happiness  
B. they get married and have children
C. they don’t have religious beliefs    
D. they can’t free themselves from commitment
75. If one understands the nature of happiness, he will ______.
  A. stop seeking fun from daily life
B. enjoy life by spending all his wealth
  C. keep himself with his family   
D. make more efforts to take responsibilites
