Jane Goodall was born in London in 1934. She became interested in animal stories when she was a very young child. She always dreamed of working with wild  (animal). When she was eleven years old, she decided that she wanted  (go) to Africa to live with and write about animals. But this was not the kind of thing young women usually did in the 1940s. Everybody was laughing except her mother. "If you  (real) want something, you work hard, you take advantage of the opportunity, you never give up, and you will find a way," her mother said to her. The opportunity  (come) at last. A school friend invited her to Africa. Jane worked as  waitress until she got enough money to travel there.

In 1957, Jane Goodall traveled to Africa. She soon met the well-known scientist Louis Leakey and began working for him as an assistant. He later asked her to study a group of chimpanzees  (live) by a lake in Tanzania. Very little was known about wild chimpanzees at that time.

Jane spent many years studying chimpanzees  this area of Africa. It was no easy work. They were very shy  would run away when she came near. She learned to watch them from far away using binoculars (双筒望远镜). Over time, she slowly gained  (they) trust. Watching the chimpanzees, she made many discoveries. They ate vegetables and fruit. But she found that they also ate meat. A few weeks later, she made an even more  (surprise) discovery. She saw chimpanzees making and using tools to help them catch insects.

Elias' Story

    Elias, a poor worker in South Africa, said that the time {#blank#}1{#/blank#} he first met Nelson Mandela was a very difficult period of his life. In 1952, he went to see Nelson Mandela, a black lawyer for advice. Mandela was generous with his time, for{#blank#}2{#/blank#} Elias was very grateful.

    He began school at six, but he had to leave school two years later {#blank#}3{#/blank#} his family couldn't afford the school fees and the bus fare.{#blank#}4{#/blank#} a result, he had very little education. After {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (try) hard, he got a job in a gold mine. However, to live in Johannesburg, one had got to have a passbook. Not having one, because he was not born there, he worried about{#blank#}6{#/blank#} he would become out of work.

    Then Mandela helped him, telling him how to get the correct papers {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (stay) in Johannesburg. He became more hopeful about his future and later joined the ANC Youth League {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(organize) by Mandela. Just as Mandela put it, the blacks were so badly treated that they had reached a stage {#blank#}9{#/blank#} they had almost no rights at all.

    In 1963, he helped Mandela blow up some government buildings. He knew that only by answering violence {#blank#}10{#/blank#} violence could they achieve their dream of making black and white people equal.

For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.

    However depressed you may be feeling now, if you look back, there certainly will have been events that made you happy—maybe the time {#blank#}1{#/blank#} you bought your first bicycle or you were awarded a scholarship. When good things happen, we feel excited, proud and happy.

    But the problem is, happiness doesn't usually last. The excitement of that first bicycle purchase wears off, and the pride in the scholarship gives way to the stress of performing {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (well) on the next exam.

    Psychologists call this phenomenon hedonic adaptation (享乐适应症)—that is, {#blank#}3{#/blank#} good something makes us feel, most of the time we drift back to {#blank#}4{#/blank#} we started. An often {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (quote) example is that lottery winners are no happier than non-winners eighteen months after their win.

    But don't despair. It is possible to make happiness last. Psychologists have found two anti-adaptation tools that are effective in sustaining happiness: variety and appreciation.

    Variety is, as we all know, the spice of life. But it's also a useful weapon {#blank#}6{#/blank#} adaptation. Positive changes that {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (experience) in a variety of ways are more likely to lead to lasting happiness. For example, you will feel happier about your volunteer work{#blank#}8{#/blank#} you are able to cope with new tasks every week. The second tool, appreciation, is in many ways the opposite of adaptation. It's about focusing on something, instead of letting it fade into the background. It is only when you appreciate something {#blank#}9{#/blank#} an enduring feeling of happiness will follow.

    Human beings spend a lot of time figuring out what makes them happy, but not enough time {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (try) to hang on to the happiness they already have. This is like focusing all your energy on making more money, without giving any thought to what you will do with the money. The key to happiness is to not only look for new opportunities but also to make the most of the ones you've been given.
