To these three topics different people may have different views. Some people assume(假设) that wealth is the most important part in their lives for it can bring them happiness. It is true that both wealth and health can bring happiness to people, but they do not always go hand in hand with happiness. To get wealth, some people may become pickpockets(扒手) to steal money or robbers to grab(夺取) others’ belongings, which will hurt themselves instead of bringing them happiness. On the other hand, it does not mean that a person with a strong body would surely enjoy happiness because of being healthy alone. However, happiness is a feeling of pleasure and contentment(满足). This feeling encourages people to work hard and make success still more successful. It also makes people happier. With this feeling, a person in poor health may get over his illness sooner and better with the help of doctors. As happiness always brings hope to people, let’s develop a healthy outlook and keep a pleasant heart. 48. How do the pickpockets and robbers get wealth? A. They make money by working hard. B.

Happiness is everywhere if a person has health and wealth. D. Developing a healthy outlook and keeping a pleasant heart are important. 第Ⅱ卷 (非选择题 共40分) 五、词汇运用(共10小题;每小题1分，满分10分) A)根据句意，用括号中所给词的正确形式填空，每空填一词。 51.

The first Expo, also called “The Great Exhibition”, was held in Hyde Park, London in 1851. Prince Albert, husband of Britain’s Queen Victoria, came up with the idea. The key exhibits(展品) of the first Expo included the early fax machine, the first ballot-counting(投票统计) machine and some of the world’s biggest diamonds. The first Expo had a great influence on many fields of society, including art, education and international trade. We all know that the Statue of Liberty(自由女神像) is a gift that French people sent to the US. Part of the statue was on show at the Expo in Philadelphia, US in 1876, but the head was shown at the Paris Expo in 1878. France celebrated the 100th anniversary of the French Revolution(革命) and held the Expo in Paris in 1889. The Eiffel Tower was built as the entrance for the Expo. It stands 324m, as tall as an 81-story building. Soon it became a famous building in the world. In order to celebrate the 400th anniversary of the discovery of America by Columbus, the World Expo was held in Chicago, US in 1893. For the first time, electricity(电) was used during the Expo. It meant the beginning of a modern revolution. The first ferris wheel(摩天轮) was on show. 根据短文内容，将下面表格中的信息补充完整。 Expo Timeline When Where Important things that where shows in 1851 in (71) ▲ , London the early fax machine, the first ballot- counting machine and some of the world’s biggest diamonds (72) ▲ in Philadelphia, US part of the Statue of Liberty In 1878 Paris (73) ▲ of the Statue of Liberty in 1889 Paris (74) ▲ in 1893 in (75) ▲ US the first ferris wheel 八、写作(满分15分) A)翻译句子(5分) 76. 很多亲少年正忍受着压力的痛苦。 Many teenagers ▲ . 77. 你能告诉我怎样获得成功吗?
