Dear Tom,
How are you? I’m in a new school in China this term. And I’m writing to you in my school now. This school is big and nice. There are more than two thousand students in my school. I like the teachers. They are all kind to me. And they can speak English well. So there is no problem to talk with them. My classmates are very friendly. They teach me Chinese and I teach them English.
We have many subjects at school. I like Chinese, music, PE and more. And my favorite subject is art. It’s really interesting. And my art teacher is very fun. He can draw well. I don’t like math. It’s too difficult. After school, I like playing basketball with my new friends. What a fun time to play with them!
We have no classes on weekends. I often go to movies with my parents. Sometimes I stay at home and watch TV. My parents want me to learn Chinese. Sometimes I go shopping. The food is so delicious in Chengdu. I like the food. And the people are very friendly. I love China. I love Chengdu.
Please write to me soon!

Happiness is for everyone. You don’t need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on. Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads at their free time.
In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you; when you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health; when you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you; when you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct it. And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are your happiness. If you notice a bit of them, you can see that happiness is always around you.
Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy, because you have something else that can’t be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge(向…挑战)yourself. So you can not always say you are poor and you have bad luck. As the saying goes, life is like a revolving(旋转)door. When it closes, it also opens. If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person.Those who have big houses may often feel .
| A．happy | B．lonely | C．free | D．excited |
When you fall down in a PE class, both your teacher and your classmates will .
| A．laugh at you | B．play jokes on you |
| C．quarrel with you | D．help you up |
What will your friends say to you when you make great progress?
| A．Oh, so do I | B．Congratulations |
| C．Good luck | D．It’s just so-so |
Which idea is NOT right according to the passage?
| A．People who have cars would never like to walk in the open air |
| B．You can get help from others when you make mistakes |
| C．You can still be a happy person even if you have little money |
| D．Happiness is always around you though difficulties come towards you |
Which of the following is this passage about?
| A．Bad luck | B．Good luck | C．Happiness | D．Life |
