期中题型专练-任务型阅读- 2023-2024学年 八年级英语下册 外研版 Hello, my friend! Let’s talk about what happiness is. Are you happy? What is happiness? I often think about this question. But some people always laugh at me because they think it is an easy question. I often ask them, “What is happiness?” Some of them say to me, “You are foolish. The answer to this easy question is to have a lot of money.” When I get this answer, I do not feel glad. Some will ask me “why?” I will say “Well, having a lot of money isn’t a bad thing. Now some people begin to find jobs to make a living. They all want to be the second, the third, the fourth, even the fifth Bill Gates. Maybe they’re millionaires (百万富翁) now, but are they happy? I don’t think so. If they want to be another Bill Gates, they must spend more time on their work and take less care of their families or other things. Though they have a lot of money, I don’t think they have a happy life. Here is what I think happiness is. If you want to be a person with a lot of happiness, then try to be like this: Be a kind, helpful and friendly person. Well, the more work, the more rewards (回报). Let’s begin to work hard now. Try to be a good person and then you will not feel sorry for yourself when you are old. It’s the greatest happiness for everyone, I think. Working hard is good. But don’t forget your friends or your family after work. Share more time with them and you’ll have more happiness. 1-2 题完成句子；3题简略回答问题；4题找出并写下第三段主题句；5题文中画线句子译为汉语。 1．Some people think the writer’s question is very 2．In the writer’s opinion, if a person wants to be rich, he must spend more time on their work and 3．What does the writer think is the greatest happiness for a person? 4． 5． 阅读下面短文，根据短文内容完成句子。 Helen is an exchange student (交换生) at a college in Beijing.
