A

My 16-year-old son，Anton，had gone to the local swimming hole．Most of the kids swim there，and there are plenty of rocks for them to use as safe harbors．so I had no fears for his safety．

Still，the firefighter's first words“You need to come up here to the Stillwater River”made me catch my breath，and his follow-up words gave me relief：“Your son is OK．”

When I got to the river,I immediately saw the firetruck，ambulance and Anton，wrapped with a towel about his shoulders，sitting quietly on a low platform of the fire engine.

I hurried over to him．“You OK?”I asked．”

“Yeah，”was all he said．But my eyes begged for an explanation，I didn’t get it from myson，however,who tends to play his cards close to his vest．

The story was this：A woman was being swept under water．Hearing the cries，Anton and his friend Tyler, without hesitation，swam out to her, and brought her safely to shore．

In an age in which the word“hero” is broadcast with abandon and seemingly applied to anyone who make it through the day,I realized the real thing in my son．The teens are stubborn and self-centred，but that didn’t mean they have no desire to do good．

Still shocked by my son’s daring，I drove him home．Along the way, I tried to dig out some more information from him-but he had precious little to say．The only words he said were，“What’s for supper?”

I spent some time alone that evening，thinking about the tragedy that might have been．The next morning，when Anton got up，I half expected him to tell me the story．But all he did was toast some bread，pull himself together, and head for the door to start a new day．Watching from the window, I was reminded that still water often runs deep．

21．Why did the mother allow her son to swim there?

A．He was an excellent swimmer． B．The water of the river is shallow．

C. He was old enough to swim． D．The rocks can be of help if there’s danger．

22．The underlined part“who tends to play his cards close to his vest”probably means

A. Anton is a boy fond of swimming with other kids

B．Anton is unwilling to tell others what he thinks

C．Anton always has a desire to help others

D．Anton seldom changes his mind

23．In the mother's eyes，what her son did was

A．dangerous but interesting

B．unexpected and courageous

C．meaningful but difficult

D．awful and absurd

24．What might be the best title for the passage?

A．My Son， My Hero B．Anton，A Silent Boy

C．A Good Deed D．A Proud Mother

B

Recently,CCTV journalists have approachecd pedestrians with their cameras，held a microphone to their mouth and asked a simple questiom :“Are you haapy?”

The question has caught many interviewees off guard．Even Mo Yan who recently won a Nobel Prize，responded by saying：“I don’t know”．

While the question has become a buzz phrase and the Internet plays host to heated discussions，we ask：What exactly is happiness ?And how do you measure it?

In the 1776 US Declaration of Independence，Thomas Jefferson set in writing the people’s unalienable right to“Life，Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness”．Last year，235 years on，China’s Premier Wen Jiabao told the nation：“Everything we do is aimed at letting people live more happily．”At last year’s National People’s Congress，officials agreed that increasing happiness would be a top target for the 12th five-year plan．

US psychologist Ed Diener, author of Happiness：Unlocking the Mysteries of Psychological Wealth describes happiness as “a combination of life satisfaction and having more positive than negative emotions”，according to US broadcasting network PBS．This may sound straight forward enough，but it still doesn’t explain what determines people’s happiness．

Many argue that happiness is elusive and that there is no single source．It also means different things to different people．For some，happiness can be as simple as having enough cash.

Researchers believe happiness can be separated into two types：daily experiences of hedonic(享乐的)well-being；and evaluative well-being, the way people think about their lives as a whole．The former refers to the quality of living，whereas the latter is about overall happiness，including life gods and achievement．Happiness can cross both dimensions.

Li Jun，a psychologist and mental therapy practitioner at a Beijing clinic，says：“Happiness can mean both the most basic human satisfaction or the highest level of spiritual pursuit. It’ s a simple yet profound topic .”

Chen Shangyuan，21，a junior English major at Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics，said his idea of happiness always evolves．“At present it relates to how productive I am in a day,”he said．“It might be linked to job security or leisure time after I graduate．”

Then there is the question of measuring happiness．Does it depend on how many friends we have，or whether we own the latest smart phone? Is it even quantifiable?

Economists are trying to measure happiness in people’s lives．Since 1972，Bhutan’s GDP measurement has been,replaced by a Gross National Happiness index．It is calculated according to the peoples’sense of being well-governed，their relationship with the environment，their satisfaction with economic development,and their sense of national belonging．

In 2009，US economist Joseph Stiglitz proposed “to shift emphasis from measuring economic production to measuring people’s well-being”.But is well-being more easily measured?

28．From what Thomas Jefferson and Wen Jiabao mentioned in the passage，we know_______．

A．people’s happiness is determined by great people

B. people’s happiness is an important target for the development of a country

C．people in all countries have the right to ask the government for a happy life

D. People both in China and America are living a happy life

29．According to the passage，the writer may most likely agree that_____．

A.CCTV journalists are concerned about people’s happiness out of sympathy．

B．the question has led to heated discussions about who are the happiest people in China，

C．Bhutan’s new index shows that people there are the happiest in the world

D．it is not easy for us to decide what determines p
