 A

Millions of kids in the United States attend some kind of camp each summer. Some go to sleep-away camp for weeks, while others attend day camp in their hometowns. There is one thing all those camps have in common, though. More than nine out of 10 kids said camp helped them make new friends and feel better about themselves.

__________________

What else do kids get out of camp? Plenty!

Kids who want to be stars on the football field or basketball court have their choice of a variety of summer camps. Some, such as the Let Me Play sessions offered by Nike, are free and provide a few hours of instruction by professional athletes. Other summer sports camp opportunities are offered by professional teams or university athletic departments. Players and coaches usually lead those camps, teaching basic skills as well as teamwork and good sports behavior.

Open up to fun

It’s easy to be yourself if you have something in common with your fellow campers, even when that something is a disease.

A journal entry by one camper describes the camp’s high ropes course as a symbol of everyone there and the challenges they face. “Climbing it and going through that struggle to get up and push yourself is like getting through the sickness we all were faced with at some point,” she writes. There is another reward that comes once climbers reach the top of the ropes course and hear the words “good job” from their fellow campers. It is, “in a way, coming close to being cured. Even if we aren’t, it felt like it,” the camper says.

Healthy benefits

There are also health and wellness camps for kids who don’t have any illnesses. For Erin H. of Oklahoma, the first thoughts she had about going to a weight-loss camp were that it would be embarrassing and a waste of time. But as soon as she arrived at Wellspring Adventure Camp, she knew it would be awesome. “I had the most fun ever!” says Erin, who liked Wellspring so much. She stayed for eight weeks instead of the four weeks she’d originally agreed to. “This camp has helped improve my self-respect 100 percent, and I’m no longer self-conscious.”

36．The first paragraph serves as _________.

A. conclusion B. definition (下定义) C. background D. comment (评论)

37．What is suitable phrase for the blank（空） in the passage?

A. Setting a goal B. Developing an ability

C. Killing time D. Forming a habit

B

Do you want to live with a strong sense of peacefulness，happiness，goodness，and self-respect？The collection of happiness actions broadly categorized (把……归类) as “honor” help you create this life of good feelings.

Here’s an example to show how honorable actions create happiness.

Say a store clerk fails to charge us for an item.If we keep silent，and profit from the clerk’s mistake，we would drive home with a sense of sneaky (暗中的) excitement.Later we might tell our family or friends about our good fortune.On the other hand，if we tell the clerk about the uncharged item，the clerk would be grateful and thank us for our honesty.We would leave the store with a quiet sense of honor that we might never share with another soul.

Then，what is it to do with our sense of happiness?

In the first case，where we don’t tell the clerk，a couple of things would happen.Deep down inside we would know ourselves as a type of thief.In the process，we would lose some peace of mind and self-respect.We would also demonstrate that we cannot be trusted，since we advertise our dishonor by telling our family and friends.We damage our own reputations by telling others.In contrast，bringing_the_error_to_the__clerk’s__attention causes different things to happen.Immediately the clerk knows us to be honorable.Upon leaving the store，we feel honorable and our self-respect is increased.Whenever we take honorable actions we gain the deep internal rewards of goodness and a sense of nobility.

There is a beautiful positive cycle that is created by living a life of honorable actions.Honorable thoughts lead to honorable actions.Honorable actions lead us to a happier existence.And it’s easy to think and act honorably again when we’re happy.While the positive cycle can be difficult to start，once it’s started，it’s easy to continue.Keeping on doing good deeds brings us peace of mind，which is important for our happiness.

41．According to the passage，the positive action in the example contributes to our________.

A．self-respect 　 B．financial rewards

C．advertising ability　 D．friendly relationship

42．The author thinks that keeping silent about the uncharged item is equal to________.

A．lying 　 B．stealing C．cheating 　 D．advertising

43．The underlined phrase “bringing the error to the clerk’s attention” means________.

A．telling the truth to the clerk

B．offering advice to the clerk

C．asking the clerk to be more attentive

D．reminding the clerk of the charged items

44．How will we feel if we let the clerk know the mistake?

A．We’ll be very excited. B．We’ll feel unfortunate.

C．We’ll have a sense of honor. D．We’ll feel sorry for the clerk.

45．Which of the following can be the best title of this passage?

A．How to Live Truthfully

B．Importance of Peacefulness

C．Ways of Gaining Self-respect

D．Happiness through Honorable Actions
