We always convince ourselves that life will be better after we get married, have a baby, than another. Then we are not 36 that the kids aren’t old enough and we’ll be more content when they are. After that we’re not satisfied that we have teenagers to __37 . We will certainly be happy when they are out of that stage.
We always tell ourselves that our life will be _38 when our spouse(配偶) gets his or her act together; when we get a nice car, and are able to _39 on a nice vocation when we retire.

Then life would begin. At last it 47 on me that these obstacles were my life.” This perspective has helped me to see that there is no 48 to happiness. Happiness is the way. So 49 every moment that you have.

第三部分：阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)
阅读下列短文，从每题的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。
A
Everyone gathered around and Paddy read out loud, slowly, his tone growing sadder and sadder. The little headline said: BOXER RECEIVES LIFF SENTENCE.
Frank Cleary, aged 26, professional boxer, was today found guilty of the murder of Albert Cumming, aged 32, laborer, last July. The jury (陪审团) reached its decision after only ten minutes, recommending the most severe punishment to the court. It was, said the judge, a simple case. Cumming and Cleary had quarreled violently at the Harbour Hotel on July 23rd and police saw Cleary kicking at the head of the unconscious Cumming. When arrested, Cleary was drunk but clear-thinking.
Cleary was sentenced to life imprisonment with hard labour. Asked if he had anything to say, Cleary answered, “Just don't tell my mother.”
“It happened over three years ago,” Paddy said helplessly.  No one answered him or moved, for no one knew what to do. “Just don't tell my mother,” said Fee numbly. “And no one did! Oh, God! My poor, poor Frank!”
Paddy wiped the tears from his face and said.  “Fee , pack your things. We'll go to see him.”
She half-rose before sinking back, her eyes in her small white face stared as if dead. “I can't go,” she said without a hint of pain, yet making everyone feel that the pain was there. “It would kill him to see me. I know him so well—his pride, his ambition. Let him bear the shame alone, it's what he wants. We've got to help him keep his secret. What good will it do him to see us?”
Paddy was still weeping, not for Frank, but for the life which had gone from Fee's face, for the dying in her eyes. Frank had always brought bitterness and misfortune, always stood between Fee and himself. He was the cause of her withdrawal from his heart and the hearts of his children. Every time it looked as if there might be happiness for Fee, Frank took it away. But Paddy's love for her was as deep and impossible to wipe out as hers was for Frank.

So he said. “Well, Fee, we won't go. But we must make sure he is taken care of. How about if I write to Father Jones and ask him to look out for Frank?”
The eyes didn't liven, but a faint pink stole into her cheeks. “Yes, Paddy, do that. Only make sure he knows not to tell Frank we found out. Perhaps it would ease Frank to think for certain that we don't know.”
56. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. Frank was found guilty of murder because he was a professional boxer.
B. The family didn't find out what happened to Frank until three years later.
C. The jury and the judge disagreed on whether Frank had committed murder.
D. Frank didn't want his family to find out what happened because Paddy disliked him.
57. Paddy cried because he thought ______________.
A. Frank did kill someone and deserved the punishment
B. Frank should have told Fee what had happened

C. what had happened to Frank was killing Fee
D. Frank had always been a man of bad moral character
58. “She half-rose before sinking back…” (in Paragraph 6) shows that______________.
A. Fee was so heart-broken that she could hardly stand up
B. Fee didn't want to upset Paddy by visiting Frank
C. Fee couldn't leave her family to go to see Frank
D. Fee struggled between wanting to see Frank and respecting his wish
59. Which of the following suggests that Fee was deeply shocked by what happened to Frank?
A. “Her eyes in her small white face stared as if dead.”
B. “Let him bear the shame alone, it’s what he wants.”
C. “Every time it looked as if there might be happiness for Fee, Frank took it away.”
D. “The eyes didn’t liven, but a faint pink stole into her cheeks.”
60. What is Fee's probable relationship with Frank and Paddy?
A. Son and brother. B. Son and husband.C. Brother and lover. D. Lover and husband.
B
Competition between international universities is heating up, as China grows as one of the largest exporters of students aiming to study abroad. “Lots of universities are becoming more and more aggressive to attract Chinese students. Every day I receive contacts from universities in the US expressing the desire to come to China to recruit students,” said Frank Joseph, a commercial officer from embassy of the United States.
One key reason why more Chinese students are able to study abroad is the economy: With China’s boom within the past decade, more families have the financial wherewithal(资金) to send their children to international universities. There will be a total of 200,000 family-funded Chinese students studying overseas in 2009, up 20 percent from last year, said Wu Zaofeng, deputy secretary general of China Education Association for International Exchange.
International institutions, Joseph said, are also facing increasingly tough financial situation with a shortage of domestic students and a drop in government subsidies(补贴). Students, especially in the US are paying high tuition fees and living expenses. Chinese students with money to spend, according to experts, can fill up the gap. Students on average spend 150,000 yuan to 200,000 yuan every year studying in US, according to statistics from the US Institute of International Education. During 2007-2008, there were approximately 81,000 Chinese students studying in the US, up 19.8 percent from 2006.
Representatives from approximately 60 universities from the United States are planning to arrive in Beijing this weekend to attract more Chinese students at this year’s fair. Besides the US, many other countries are also vying(竞争) to enroll Chinese students.
Post-study work visa put out by British government allows all international students completing a UK degree qualification to apply for a visa to stay on and look for work in UK for up to 2 years. Being the third most popular destination for international students next to the US and the UK, France has set up two t
