A
Two years ago，my family moved to a new city and I had to study in a new school．As I had few friends there．I felt lonely．Then I met Tony．The first time I saw him．he was standing in the center of a group of students，telling jokes．The children around laughed from time to time．Tony knew about my problem．He asked me to play basketball with his friends and helped me with my studies．We soon became good friends．
About a year ago，however，Tony's father was killed in an accident．As a result，his family had to move to a small house．Tony changed into a different person．He became silent and he even lost his interest in studies．Several times．I invited him to go out and play basketball with me，but he refused．I wanted to help him，but didn't know what to do．
Then something strange happened in my class．Two classmates lost the money in their schoolbags．
Last Friday，just before the P．E．lesson，I went back to the classroom to get my running shoes I would use．The door was half open．I went in．To my astonishment，I saw Tony was searching one of my classmates'schoolbags．I was shocked…

When I was 13 years old，a boy gave me an important gift．It was a smile．
It was the early autumn of my first year at a junior high school，and my old school was far away．As a result，no one knew who I was．I was very lonely，and afraid to make friends with anyone．

Every time I heard the other students talking and laughing，I felt my heart break．I couldn’t talk to anyone about my problem，and I didn’t want my parents to worry about me．
Then one day，my classmates talked happily with their friends，but I sat at my desk unhappily as usual．At that moment，a boy entered the classroom．I didn’t know who he was．He passed me and then turned back．He looked at me and，without a word，smiled．
Suddenly，I felt the touch of something bright and friendly．It made me feel happy，lively and warm．
That smile changed my life．I started to talk with the other students and made friends．Day by day，I became closer to everyone in my class．The boy with the lucky smile has become my best friend now．
One day，I asked him why he smiled，but he couldn’t remember smiling at me！
It doesn’t matter because all the dark days have gone．Now I believe that the world is what you think it is．If you think you are lonely，you might always be alone．So smile at the world and it will smile back．
Why was the smile an important girl？

The writer couldn’t talk to anyone in her new school about her problem because________．

How did the smile change the writer’s life？

Where does the writer now think her feeling of unhappiness come from？

Which of the following is TRUE from the passage？

C
“Find a job you love，and you’ll never work a day in your life．”Do you agree with this old saying？Joanne Gordon does．She is the author of Be Happy at Work and other books about careers(职业)．Gordon believes that about 30％ of employees(雇员)in North America do not like their jobs，and she thinks that is terrible．She wants to help people who do not feel satisfied(满意)with their jobs find work that is good for them．Joanne says，“There are no happy jobs，only happy workers．”She believes that happy workers share three main characteristics(特点)．

First，happy workers enjoy the daily activities of their jobs，and they look forward to the workday．Take Tony Hawk，for example．At age 14，he became a professional skateboarder．Now he is a businessman working on projects related to skateboarding—films and video games，but he still skates every day．He once said．“My youngest son’s preschool class was recently asked what their dads do for work．My son said，‘I’ve never seen my dad do work．’”Tony agrees that his job doesn’t look like work．He has found a way to spend each day doing a job he enjoys．
Second，happy workers like the people they work with．Sally Ayote says，“I work with the coolest people in the world．”She and her group cook for almost 1，200 people in Antarctica．Most of these people are scientists who are doing research．Sally loves to sit and talk with them．She says，“There is no television here，no radio，so I get to know the scientists and what they’re studying．”Sally thinks she has a great job，and the best part about it is the people．
Third，happy workers know that their work helps others．Caroline Baron’s work helps people who have had to leave their home countries because of war or other dangers．She is a filmmaker who started an organization called FilmAid，which shows movies in refugee(难民)camps around the world．Caroline believes that movies can be very helpful in these camps．For one thing，entertaining movies let refugees forget their troubles for a little while．Movies can also teach important subjects like health and safety．For example，in one camp，thousands of refugees saw a movie about how to get clean water．Caroline knows that she is helping other people，and this makes her feel proud and happy about her work．
Tony Hawk，Sally Ayote，and Caroline Baron all get great satisfaction from their work．Tony Hawk says，“Find the thing you love．If you are doing what you love，there is much more happiness there than being rich or famous．”Joanne Gordon would agree．She encourages people to find something they enjoy doing，find people they like to work with，and find ways to help others．Then they can be proud of what they do，and they will probably be happy at work．
Who is the book，Be Happy at Work，written for？

Joanne Gordon believes that________．

Why did Tony Hawk’s son say，“I’ve never seen my dad do work．”？

Tony Hawk，Sally Ayote，and Caroline Baron are good examples that show us________．
