    Happiness is important for everyone. Most people want to be happy but few know how to find happiness. Money and success don't bring lasting happiness. Happiness depends on ourselves. In other words, we make our own happiness.
    Some people believe that if they are wealthy, they will be able to do anything they want, which means happiness. On the other hand, some people believe that holding a high position in the government is happiness. In this way, you have not only money, but also many other things which can't be bought by money. However, other people believe that having lots of money is not happiness, nor is holding a high position in the government. These people value(重视) their beliefs, or their intelligence, or their health. They think these can make them happy.
    Here are a few ways to help you be happier.
    The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future, for example, getting into college or getting a good job, that we don't enjoy the present. You should enjoy life's simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have close friends usually enjoy happier and healthier lives.
    The second secret of happiness is to be active. Many people go dancing or play sports. People can forget about their problems and only think about the activities.
    Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. According to studies, people feel good when they volunteer their time to do many meaningful things for other people. If you want to feel happier, do something nice for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping to get food for an old neighbor, or simply help around the house.
    Now maybe you know how to find happiness!

(1)、 The underlined word “wealthy” means “__________” in the article.

举一反三
       Most people will tell you that they can't work without a cup of coffee in the morning. Research has shown that a cup of coffee does give a person slight excitement.
       Legend said that Kaldi, an Ethiopian, found his goats happier while enjoying coffee plants. Curiously, he tasted the leaves and began to dance around. Whether the Legend was true or not, the discovery of coffee dates back to 800A. D. Soon Arabians were roasting coffee beans. Muslims were drinking coffee to stay awake by 1000 A.D. A merchant from Venice introduced coffee to Europe in 1615. By 1696, the Dutch started growing the coffee bush in Java. By 1723, coffee plants were introduced to the Americans. Today, coffee is the most popular drink in the world.
       Caffeine is the major chemical in coffee. It blocks(阻止) adenosine, a chemical that makes you sleepy. People can get a pick-me-up or stimulation(刺激) from the drink. The stimulation does not last long. Caffeine poisoning can occur if more than 400 milligrams of caffeine is drunk in a short period, which is about four to five cups of coffee. Caffeine will also cause sleep difficulty, so it should not be drunk before bed.
       Caffeine has many advantages. Studies have shown that it helps improve some skills in elderly women. Women who drank three cups of coffee daily scored higher on memory tests than women who drank one cup of coffee. According to newser.com, one cup of coffee a day protects the brain. Coffee also can help people keep away from many diseases according to webmd.com.
      Large amounts of coffee can cause nervousness, worries and a fast heartbeat. However, if you mix coffee with milk, it's fine. Caffeine can be addictive like any drug. The more you drink, the more you depend on it. For some people, just one cup of coffee a day is OK.

 阅读下面短文,根据短文内容,在下面的表格中填入与文章意思最符合的单词,每空填一词。

Food waste is common in many schools. Students at Whitewater Middle School in the US once found 200 pounds (90. 7kg) of food had been thrown away after just one of their school's daily meals. They said it was both unpleasant and educational. 

A student said, "You don't realize how much food waste you're making till you see it. " To deal with this problem, Whitewater has added environmental science as a new school program this year. Teachers will lead students to do research about how food connects with the environment, poverty (贫穷) and people's health. 

Whitewater teachers make sure students know how their own eating habits are part of bigger problems. In environmental literature (文学) classes, students read books such as Fast Food Nation: The Dark Side of the All-American Meal. 

Teacher Lyman says that in language arts classes, students discuss why poor people often have less healthy food. Lyman says she wants students to ask themselves some basic questions: "What do we eat? What do we waste?

Have you ever tried ChatGPT, a smart AI chatbot(聊天机器人)tool? As it swept the education world last month, artificial intelligence(AI)caused a heated discussion. In this article, we will explain the advantages and disadvantages of AI to {#blank#}1{#/blank#} you with a better understanding of this subject. So, let's get started.

Avoiding mistakes.

Although nowadays people have much wisdom, they still make mistakes. It's because  {#blank#}2{#/blank#} of us is perfect. However, AI could serve us much better. Once algorithms (算 法 ) are set up, computers will keep performing the same task over and over again {#blank#}3{#/blank#} making mistakes.

{#blank#}4{#/blank#}  time.

This powerful tool allows you to use your time more effectively(高效地). Type in "A cat wants to go to space" and ask ChatGPT to write a bedtime {#blank#}5{#/blank#} . Just one second later, you'll get the character called Max, who tried his best to overcome difficulties and flew the rockets to the moon. Creating a story in this way greatly saves time, or you would have to spend several hours finding a suitable one.

Inviting laziness in humans.

There were many inventions that were first introduced to help us, but we ended up {#blank#}6{#/blank#} too much on   them. The same is true of AI. It stays 24/7 available, 24 hours and 7 days a week! It keeps serving you {#blank#}7{#/blank#} it's turned off by you. As computers become smarter, humans would like to turn to them when facing problems instead of making full use of their own abilities.

Resulting in losing jobs.

With the increasing influence of AI, there is no doubt that finding a job will be much  {#blank#}8{#/blank#} . For example, many people can use AI to translate(翻译)the information they need without the help of others. AI may not take the place of humans, but it can certainly lead to more people losing jobs.

 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项 (A、B、C、D) 中选出最佳选项。

When the first person looked up at the sky, the imagination of the space began. In China, there are many stories about the exploration of space. 

Thousands of years ago, there was a lady named Chang'e who flew to the Moon and lived there. It's a story just living in myths(神话). In the Ming Dynasty, a man named Wan Hu used the machine which was made of a chair, some fireworks and a kite as a rocket. He wanted to go into the space but failed. He was considered as the first human to try to explore the space. 

In 2003, when Shenzhou V successfully set off, Yang Liwei's words" ask for instructions to go to the war" brought tears(眼泪) to our eyes. Carrying the flying dream of the Chinese nation for thousands of years, the first" space visitor" of China, excellently completed his task. It started the space age for the Chinese. In 2008, Zhai Zhigang, Liu Boming and Jing Haipeng returned to space by Shenzhou VII. Zhai achieved the success of the first Chinese spacewalk. "I am out of the capsule(太空舱), I feel good, " he told the world proudly. 

In the following years, China kept on making its way to explore more about the space. Especially in the recent two years, China has launched (发射) Shenzhou XIII and Shenzhou XIV. Six astronauts have been sent into the space. 

From 2003 to 2022, China's manned space- flight has gone through about twenty years of hard, but successful journey. With the take- off again and again, Chinese people go farther and farther in space, but our dream is getting closer and closer. 

In the near future, Chinese people will be sent to the Moon and land on it.
