• 2．You probably know about the Titanic，but it was actually just one of three state-of-the art（最先進(jìn)的）ocean ships back in the day．The Olympic class ships were built by the Harland & Wolff ship makers in Northern Ireland for the White Star Line company．The Olympic class included the Olympic，the Britannic and the Titanic．What you may not know is that the Titanic wasn't even the flagship of this class．All in all，the Olympic class ships were marvels of sea engineering，but they seemed cursed to suffer disastrous fates．
     The Olympic launched first in 1910，followed by the Titanic in 1911，and lastly the Britannic in 1914．The ships had nine decks，and White Star Line decided to focus on marking them the most luxurious ships on the water．
     Stretching 269.13 meters，the Olympic class ship were wonders of naval technology，and everyone thought that they would continue to be so for quite some time．However，all suffered terrible accidents on the open seas．The Olympic got wrecked before the Titanic did，but it was the only one survive and maintain a successful career of 24 years．The Titanic was the first to sink after famously hitting a huge iceberg in 1912．Following this disaster，the Britannic hit a naval mine in 1916 and subsequently sank as well．
     Each ship was coal-powered by several boilers constantly kept running by exhausted crews below deck．Most recognizable of the ship designs are the ship's smoke stacks，but the fourth stack was actually just artistic in nature and served no functional purpose．While two of these ships sank，they were all designed with double hulls（船體）believed to make them "unsinkable"，perhaps a mistaken idea that led to the Titanic's and the Britannic's tragic end．
     The Olympic suffered two crashes with other ships and went on to serve as a hospital ship and troop transport in World War I．Eventually，she was taken out of service in 1935，ending the era of the luxurious Olympic class ocean liners．

  A．They performed marvelously on the sea．
  B．They could all break the ice in their way．
  C．They all experienced terrible misfortunes．
  D．They were models of modern engineering．
  （2）What did White Star line have in mind when it purchased the three ships？

  
  A．Their capacity of sailing across all waters．
  B．The utmost comfort passengers could enjoy．
  C．Their ability to survive disasters of any kind．
  D．The long voyages they were able to undertake．
  （3）What might have led to the tragic end of the Titanic and the Britannic？

  
  A．Their unscientific designs
  B．Their captains' misjudgment
  C．The assumption that they were built with the latest technology
  D．The belief that they could never sink with a double-layer body
  （4）In the end the ship Olympic

  ．
  A．was used to carry troops
  B．was sunk in World War I
  C．was converted into a hospital ship
  D．was retired after her naval service

• 3．Finland is the happiest place on Earth，according to the 2018 World Happiness Report of 156 nations.
     The report，released Wednesday by the United Nations' Sustainable Development Solutions Network，ranks the countries of the world based on six different categories of well-being：income，freedom，trust，life expectancy，generosity and social support.This year's report also pays special attention to the happiness of each country's immigrants.
     The U.S.dropped four spots from 2017 and landed in 18th place，and last year's winner，Norway，came in second place - followed by Denmark，Iceland and Switzerland.Rounding out the top 10 happiest countries was Canada in sixth place，then New Zealand，Sweden and Australia.The order of the top 10 nations changed from the 2017 list but the countries did not，according to the report.
     "The most striking finding of the report is the remarkable consistency between the happiness of immigrants and the locally born，" Helliwell said in a statement. "Although immigrants come from countries with very different levels of happiness，their reported life evaluations resemble those of other residents in their new countries.Those who move to happier countries gain，while those who move to less happy countries lose."
     Other major world powers placed in significantly low spots on the list.Germany came in 15th，the UK was 19th - followed by Japan in 54th place，Russia in 59th and China in 86th.
     The report，based on surveys completed by citizen volunteers，came just under a week before World Happiness Day on March 20，when the UN declared to recognize "the relevance of happiness and well-being as universal goals and aspirations in the lives of human beings around the world and the importance of their recognition in public policy objectives".
  
  （1）The US ranked

  in 2017.
  A．14
  B．10
  C．18
  D．22
  （2）What is the most significant finding of the report？

  
  A．That immigrants are different from residents in the country.
  B．That immigrants come from countries with different levels of happiness.
  C．That immigrants become happy when they leave the country.
  D．That immigrants and locals feel the similar level of happiness.
  （3）What can be inferred from the last paragraph？

  
  A．Happiness is no less important than any other aspect in life.
  B．People's happiness and well-being should be considered when it comes to policy-making.
  C．The happiness report came under a week before World Happiness Day.
  D．What the UN declared was beneficial to all human beings.
  （4）What is the best title of the passage？

  
  A．World Happiness Day.

• 4．Doctors say anger can be an extremely damaging emotion，unless you learn how to deal with it.They warn that anger can lead to heart disease，stomach problems，headaches，emotional problems and possibly cancer.
     （1）

  Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way.Some people burst with anger，and scream and yell. （2）

  They can not or will not express it.This is called repressing anger.

     Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous.They believe that those who express anger violently may be more likely to develop heart disease，and they believe that those who keep anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure.
     （4）

  They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger，and then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about.If it is，they say，" （5）

  Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably."
     Doctors say that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you angry.They said that laughter is much healthier than anger.
  
  A.In general，the person feels excited and ready to act.
  B.But other people keep their anger inside.
  C.Expressing anger violently is more harmful than repressing it.
  D.Anger may cause you a cancer.
  E.Do not express your anger while angry.

• 29．60-year-old Richard Olsen had retired from his work.He was very interested in adventure and hunting.
      This time he hunted on a land near Watford City，N.D.in the under-populated western part of the state.In the cold winter，he tried a new spot and forgot to bring his cell phone.He hiked more than half a mile with two dogs to a harvested wheat field.
      Eyes fixed in the horizon in expectation of another pheasant（野雞）taking fight，Richard stepped on a thin crust（層）of snow on a canal.It collapsed and dropped him.
      Realizing that he was in trouble and was going t0 hurt himself Richard was suddenly picking up a lot of speed.His left leg hit first，and he lay on his side to reach for his shotgun unloaded it and used it as a walking stick.When he was party up，he slipped and slid back down，because one of his feet got stuck between two rocks.Richard told himself that if he didn't get himself out of the canal，he wasn't going to have a very good night.
      Richard walked his foot free and climbed more slowly and cautiously out of the canal.
      Richard immediately realized the difficulty of the task before him.The accident occurred at about 2 p.m.and it was nearly 5 p.m.with the road far away and the sun setting.
      Richard focused on crawling（爬）to safety.Even with his gun's support，hopping（單腳跳）was impractical.Instead，he sat down and pushed himself backward less than 40 inches at a time with his good leg.He was stubborn and sure that he must hold On.Temperatures dropped below zero overnight，and his gloves and boots got wet.His hands and feet soon were completely numb.
