I recently ran into an old friend who I hadn't seen for two years. She looked tired and was talking in a loud voice. She is a headhunter, and had just finished interviewing a candidate but failed to impress him.

Then she started to complain about her health problems. One year ago, she began to notice a ringing in her ears. She went to the hospital and was told that her problem might have resulted from stress. The doctor gave her pills for her nerves.

At night, she has to listen to loud music to quiet the noise in her head and fall asleep. Her life has become a two?point routine of work and home. Even while she was vacationing in Thailand, she found herself searching for the right candidate.

She suffers from the same workaholic depression as another friend who works for an advertising company. This friend has to work overtime almost every day. If she's lucky, she can leave at 9 p．m.; otherwise it's midnight. For her, working on weekends has become normal. Each time I see her, she seems down.

My two friends share something in common: They don't want to escape their misery, believing that if you don't work hard when you are young, you will regret it. That may be true, but there are limits. If every day you wake up feeling down, then it may be time to move on.

As important as finding a job that you really like, is finding a company with a healthy atmosphere. The right company should lift your spirits and have a team working toward a common goal. As for the employees, they should work hard and play hard. If you can enjoy life, you will have more passion to bring to your work.

1.Why did the author's old friend suffer from health problems?

A. Because of stress from work. B. Because she ate too much.

C. Because of the loud noise in her workplace. D. Because she failed to impress a candidate.

2.One thing that the author's two friends share is that ________．

A. they both love their work B. they both work extremely hard

C. they both work for an advertising company D. they both take an active part in social activities

3.What does the author think important in finding a job?

A. Chances to achieve one's goal. B. Chances to learn new things.

C. A pleasant working atmosphere. D. A good boss and a large salary.

Recently I started discovering one thing which amazes me so much: how perfect everything is in the world we are living in! Just look, all day long we are busy working and just when we get tired, the night comes in, so we may sleep and relax. One day we may enjoy the bright sun and another day, when we get tired of the sun, the rain pours down.

A few months ago I was so happy with my life. Later, I got tired from the happiness. I wished I would have some trial to strengthen my character and learn something new about life. I got what I wanted. Shortly after I got severe angina (心絞痛), so I had to stay home for several weeks. During this period I had time to rethink my life and discover myself. The lessons were terrific, but I felt grateful for this time.

Another example: I have a friend, who primarily thinks about having fun. Once I thought why we get along well with each other and what in me attracts her. A couple of days ago I found the answer. I like calmness and silence. She likes noise and agitation (熱鬧). We attract each other just to balance ourselves, in other words, to give some drive to me and some calmness to her!

So remember that the universe is so wise that it will try to balance you. As for me, this is perfect because extremes create suffering: too much food – too little food, too cold – too hot, too much fun – too little fun.

1.We can learn from the first paragraph that the author___.

A. always feels down on rainy days

B. always tries his best to do everything

C. feels happy with everything in life

D. is amazed at the changes in life

2.The example given in the third paragraph is to show that___.

A. it’s necessary to get along with different people

B. there exists a kind of balance in life

C. a person shouldn’t just think of fun in life

D. one should put others’ interests above his own

3.The author would probably agree that___.

A. we shouldn’t go to extremes in life

B. we should be nice to others and ourselves

C. we should adapt ourselves to changes in life

D. life can be annoying sometimes

He is both a great director and a great animator (卡通片制作者). He is Japan’s Walt Disney.

Hayao Miyazaki, the 72-year-old Japanese master of fantasy animation (奇幻動(dòng)畫(huà)), one of the most respected animation directors in the world, announced his retirement on September 6. Here are some key words about his films.

Good and evil (邪惡)

Miyazaki rarely tells stories in simple good and evil. The worlds he creates tend to be complex (復(fù)雜的) and unclear. The bad figures often don’t seem so bad once you get to know them. Miyazaki has explained that the lack of clear good and evil is because he sees the 21st century as a complex time, in which old ideas need to be re-examined, even in children’s films.

Children

The heroes in Miyazaki’s films are usually children or teens, more often young girls. Sometimes they can see the spirit world; they are curious and friendly, even to strange creatures. The stories often deal with growing up.

Sky and water

Two of Miyazaki’s great loves are the sky and water, and he uses them in related ways. Flight is a forever theme — Miyazaki has never done a film without flying of some kind. His imagination seems to fly and leave behind the pull of gravity (重力), a force and control that he feels a bound (束縛) from setting him free.

Water is another way for Miyazaki to fight gravity. In his films he likes the unexpected floods with crystal-clear water, and objects floating on the surface seem to be supported by magic.

Peace

Miyazaki’s negative view of the war goes far more than surface deep. Violence is usually seen as wrong and painful, and Miyazaki’s heroes are often peacemakers.

1.What can we know about good and evil from Miyazaki’s films?

A. The figures cannot be simply judged as good or evil.

B. He uses his films to show good finally defeats evil.

C. The complex time tends to turn good into evil.

D. Children should learn to clearly tell good from evil.

2.According to the article, children in Miyazaki’s films are ______.

A. all little teen-aged girls B. always able to see spirits

C. curious trouble makers D. kind to people and creatures

3.Miyazaki’s love for flight may come from ______.

A. the relation between sky and water

B. his hate for gravity since his childhood

C. his desire to be free from gravity

D. his love for water that can flood the world

4.In Miyazaki’s films we may NOT see ______.

A. the appealing castle in the sky

B. children with the problems of growing up

C. objects magically floating on the water

D. a world left in ruins in the end

When I intended to tell my four-year-old niece Lisa the story Snow White write by the Grimm Brothers, my elder sister stopped me immediate and gave me another storybook. When I asked if she has told Lisa the story, she shook her head and said, “I don’t think girl today should listen to this story.” I was confusing. Later, my sister explained how. In this story, Snow White does nothing to rescue herself. Instead of, she depends on others’ help. My sister doesn’t want her daughter to learn just to turn to others help. She wants her to learn to be brave and independence. That’s why my sister doesn’t want to tell herself such stories as Snow White.
