题目

There are two types of people in the world. Although they have equal degrees of health and wealth and the other comforts of life, one becomes happy,   41   becomes unhappy. This   42   from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, and events, and the resulting effects upon their minds. The people who are to be happy   43   their attention to the conveniences of things, the pleasant parts of conversation, the well-prepared dishes, the goodness of the wines, and the fine weather. They enjoy all the cheerful things. Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the   44   things. They are,   45  , continually unsatisfied. By their words, they complain about the pressure of society, offend(冒犯) many people, and   46   themselves disagreeable (不受欢迎的) everywhere. If this turn of mind were founded in nature, such unhappy persons would be more to be pitied. The intention of criticizing and being disliked is perhaps taken up   47   by imitation (模仿). It grows into a habit, unknown   48   its possessors（拥有者）. The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it   49   its bad effects on their interests and tastes. I hope this little warning may be of service to them, and   50   them change this habit. Although in fact it is chiefly an act of imagination, it has serious   51   in life, since it causes deep sorrow and bad luck. Those people offend many others, nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most   52   politeness and respect. This   53   puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments. If they aim at getting   54   advantages in social position or fortune, nobody wishes them success. Nor will anyone start a step   55   speak a word to favor their hopes. If they cause themselves public objections (反对), no one will   56   or excuse them, and many   57   join to criticize their wrongdoings. These people should change this bad habit and be pleased with what is pleasing,   58   worrying needlessly about themselves and others. If they do not,   59   will be good for others to avoid any contact with them. Otherwise, it can be disagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient,   60   when one becomes mixed up in their quarrels. 41.A. other             B. another          C. the other        D. one another 42.A. comes         B. rises        C. raises       D. becomes 43.A. draw              B. focus        C. attract          D. pay 44.A. same          B. opposite         C. happy        D. funny 45.A. however       B. furthermore      C. otherwise    D. therefore 46.A. let           B. force        C. make         D. have 47.A. originally        B. finally          C. normally     D. likely 48.A. as            B. to           C. for              D. at 49.A. convinced      B. convincing      C. agree        D. realize 50.A. agree             B. enjoy        C. praise       D. help 51.A.results        B. reasons          C. causes       D. phenomena（现象） 52.A. unusual       B. common      C. usual        D. normal 53.A. hardly        B. luckily          C. seriously        D. often 54.A. some          B. other        C. few              D. no 55.A. and           B. but              C. so           D. or 56.A. defend        B. offend       C. intend       D. attend 57.A. should        B. must         C. can              D. will 58.A. with              B. without          C. but for          D. in case of 59.A. one           B. they         C. it           D. that 60.A. specially     B kindly         C. hardly       D. especially   答案：41---45CADBD   46---50 CABDD  51---55 ABDAD  56----60 ADBCD
