Gabriel is a barber (理发师). Though born without hands, he was able to grow up, happy and independent. He always had the support of friends and family. In fact, his inspiration (启发灵感的人) for such a line of work was his mother, who is a hairdresser. At 14, he started working as a barber, and learned all the skills he needed. Although he first saw it as a hobby, Gabriel quickly decided this was the profession he wanted to work in.
“I’ve learned to serve a glass of water by myself. I’ve learned to ride a bike, a motorbike, and even to drive a car,” Gabriel said about growing up with his serious disability.
His family soon helped him open his first barbershop, which he worked at for one and a half years. There, he met Zlatan Gomez, the president of Argentina Corta, an organization for barbers to connect, do charity work in the neighborhood and teach hairdressing to those who are interested. Gabriel is now part of Argentina Corta. He tries his best to make a connection with the neighborhood and make a difference, offering his services to people so they can pick up the skills they need.
Maybe Gabriel’s perseverance (坚韧) comes from the fact that he’s had to overcome so much in his life, but perhaps his energy also comes from being a father. Gabriel has a son named Tobias. “He gives me power. I want to raise him with this message: There is nothing you can’t do. You have to improve yourself day by day, ” he says.
Whatever problem you face, you can usually solve it by turning to a new mindset (思维模式), making changes and never giving up. As the famous painter Vincent van Gogh once said, “If you hear a voice within you say ‘you can’t paint,’ then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced. ”
31. Who influenced Gabriel to take the job as a barber?
A. His friends. B. His mother.
C. Zlatan Gomez. D. Vincent van Gogh.
32. According to the text, Argentina Corta ________.
A. was created by Zlatan Gomez
B. is a group for disabled barbers
C. trains people to be hairdressers
D. helps Gabriel overcome his disability
33 Which words best describe Gabriel?
A. Humorous and friendly. B. Serious but kind-hearted.
C. Patient but shy. D. Strong-willed and caring.
34. What can we infer about Gabriel from Paragraph 4?
A. He tries his best to be a good father.
B. He is really strict with his son Tobias.
C. Being a father really tests his patience.
D. He refuses to look back on his childhood.
35. What’s the best title for the text?
A. Learning starts with failure
B. The way to find true happiness
C. Influence the people around you
D. Never give up in the face of difficulties
C
Scientists who study happiness have evidence (证据) to show that being kind to others can result in happiness. This may seem surprising to some people, but it has been proved to be true. Acts as simple as buying a cup of coffee for someone can lift a person’s mood. For example, everyday life is full of chances for such actions, yet people do not always make the most of them.
In studies, behavioral scientist Nicholas Epley and I examined a possible explanation: people who do kind acts underestimate (低估) how much the ones receiving kindness value their behavior.
In the experiments, about 1,000 people were asked to do some actions to make someone else feel good. We asked both the person performing the kind act and the one receiving it to answer some questions. The performers were asked to report their own experience and to guess how the receivers might feel. We wanted to understand how valuable people considered these acts to be, so both the performer and the receiver had to rate (评分) how “big” the act seemed. In all cases, we compared the performer’s expectations of the receiver’s mood with the receiver’s actual experience.
For one, both performers and receivers experienced more positive moods. For another, the receivers felt much better than the kind performers expected.
At first, we studied acts of kindness done for familiar people, such as friends, classmates or family. But we found that performers underestimated their positive influences on strangers as well. In one experiment, performers in a public park gave away hot chocolate on a cold winter-day to people that just happened to be nearby. Again, the kind act brought more happiness than the performers expected.
These findings suggest that what might seem small could matter a great deal to the person we do it for. Considering these warm actions can improve our own mood and brighten the day of another person, why not choose kindness when we can?
36. How does the writer start the passage?
A. By showing a result. B. By asking a question.
C. By listing some numbers. D. By making comparisons.
37 What did the performers do in the experiments?
A. They asked the receivers how they felt.
B. They compared their expectations with the actual results.
C. They rated how valuable their own act of kindness was.
D. They offered to perform kind acts in public.
38. The following sentence can best be put at the end of ________ .
The receivers also rated these acts as “bigger” than the people performing them did.
A. paragraph 1 B. paragraph 2 C. paragraph 3 D. paragraph 4
39. What is paragraph 5 mainly about?
A. Different purposes of the research.
B. More evidence for the research results.
C. Possible influences of the research findings.
D. Another explanation of the research methods.
40. The writer writes this article mainly to ________ .
A. tell us how to perform an experiment
B. call on people to show kindness to others
C. compare the difference between giving and receiving kindness
D. show us how to improve our mood

Gabriel is a barber (理发师). Though born without hands, he was able to grow up, happy and independent. He always had the support of friends and family. In fact, his inspiration (启发灵感的人) for such a line of work was his mother, who is a hairdresser. At 14, he started working as a barber, and learned all the skills he needed. Although he first saw it as a hobby, Gabriel quickly decided this was the profession he wanted to work in.
“I’ve learned to serve a glass of water by myself. I’ve learned to ride a bike, a motorbike, and even to drive a car,” Gabriel said about growing up with his serious disability.
His family soon helped him open his first barbershop, which he worked at for one and a half years. There, he met Zlatan Gomez, the president of Argentina Corta, an organization for barbers to connect, do charity work in the neighborhood and teach hairdressing to those who are interested. Gabriel is now part of Argentina Corta. He tries his best to make a connection with the neighborhood and make a difference, offering his services to people so they can pick up the skills they need.
Maybe Gabriel’s perseverance (坚韧) comes from the fact that he’s had to overcome so much in his life, but perhaps his energy also comes from being a father. Gabriel has a son named Tobias. “He gives me power. I want to raise him with this message: There is nothing you can’t do. You have to improve yourself day by day, ” he says.
Whatever problem you face, you can usually solve it by turning to a new mindset (思维模式), making changes and never giving up. As the famous painter Vincent van Gogh once said, “If you hear a voice within you say ‘you can’t paint,’ then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced. ”
31. Who influenced Gabriel to take the job as a barber?

B. is a group for disabled barbers
C. trains people to be hairdressers
D. helps Gabriel overcome his disability
33. Which words best describe Gabriel?
A. Humorous and friendly. B. Serious but kind-hearted.
C. Patient but shy. D. Strong-willed and caring.
34. What can we infer about Gabriel from Paragraph 4?
A. He tries his best to be a good father.
B. He is really strict with his son Tobias.
C. Being a father really tests his patience.
D. He refuses to look back on his childhood.
35. What’s the best title for the text?

Scientists who study happiness have evidence (证据) to show that being kind to others can result in happiness. This may seem surprising to some people, but it has been proved to be true. Acts as simple as buying a cup of coffee for someone can lift a person’s mood. For example, everyday life is full of chances for such actions, yet people do not always make the most of them.
In studies, behavioral scientist Nicholas Epley and I examined a possible explanation: people who do kind acts underestimate (低估) how much the ones receiving kindness value their behavior.
In the experiments, about 1,000 people were asked to do some actions to make someone else feel good. We asked both the person performing the kind act and the one receiving it to answer some questions. The performers were asked to report their own experience and to guess how the receivers might feel. We wanted to understand how valuable people considered these acts to be, so both the performer and the receiver had to rate (评分) how “big” the act seemed. In all cases, we compared the performer’s expectations of the receiver’s mood with the receiver’s actual experience.
For one both performers and receivers experienced more positive moods. For another, the receivers felt much better than the kind performers expected.
At first, we studied acts of kindness done for familiar people, such as friends, classmates or family. But we found that performers underestimated their positive influences on strangers as well. In one experiment, performers in a public park gave away hot chocolate on a cold winter-day to people that just happened to be nearby. Again, the kind act brought more happiness than the performers expected.
These findings suggest that what might seem small could matter a great deal to the person we do it for. Considering these warm actions can improve our own mood and brighten the day of another person, why not choose kindness when we can?
36. How does the writer start the passage?
A. By showing a result. B. By asking a question.
C. By listing some numbers. D. By making comparisons.
37. What did the performers do in the experiments?
A. They asked the receivers how they felt.
B. They compared their expectations with the actual results.
C. They rated how valuable their own act of kindness was.
D. They offered to perform kind acts in public.
38. The following sentence can best be put at the end of ________ .
The receivers also rated these acts as “bigger” than the people performing them did.
A. paragraph 1 B. paragraph 2 C. paragraph 3 D. paragraph 4
39. What is paragraph 5 mainly about?
A. Different purposes of the research.
B. More evidence for the research results.
C Possible influences of the research findings.
D. Another explanation of the research methods.
40. The writer writes this article mainly to ________ .
A. tell us how to perform an experiment
B. call on people to show kindness to others
C. compare the difference between giving and receiving kindness
D. show us how to improve our mood
