There is something in the world. It has no shape, no color and no weight. It can't be seen or touched. But everyone wants it very much People try to get it in many ways. Some people think money means it, so they try to make more money; some people believe that knowledge can bring it to them, so they study very hard; some other people find only good health can make themselves get it, so they take part in all kinds of sports and games. Now, you may ask what on earth the mysterious thing is. That's HAPPINESS. I can't give you the exact meaning of happiness, but I'm sure if you love and help others, you'll get it.
I'll never forget an old lady. She lives in a small house alone. It's said that her husband and her son died in a traffic accident. What a sorrow life she has! But the old lady often helps others with a smile. Whenever it snows, she is always the first to clean the paths （小路）. She looks after several children living nearby. I am one of them. I often remember the stories she told us and her kind smile. Perhaps she is unlucky, but I think she is a happy person. Her life is full of laughter and love.
But I'm sad to see some people getting their happiness in bad ways. They speak loudly in cinemas and meeting rooms; they destroy （损坏） trees to enjoy themselves and they laugh at others' shortcomings. Perhaps they feel happy at that time, but they will never get true happiness because they have destroyed others' happiness.
Now I know what happiness is. It means kindness, love and unselfishness. Above all, only bringing happiness to others can make yourself happy.

How do you feel when you teacher asks you to work on a group project with other student? Do you like to work together with others or work alone?
The Programme for International Student Assessment, or PISA, carried out a survey of student's ability to work together in groups. They found that students who do well on tests by themselves are also likely to be better at working with other people. This finding was true for many countries. Students in Japan, South Korea, Finland and Canada, where test scores are high, also did well in working together to solve problems.
But this was not the case for every country. Chinese students, who have high scores as well, displayed just average collaborative （合作的）skills. "One reason might be that Chinese parents and teachers focus too much on grades," said Zhao Zhongxin, former vice president of the Chinese Family Education Association. "Students have a lot of exam pressure and they see schools as places for competition." "However, collaborative skills are very important for preparing students for today's society." he added. "Luckily, more Chinese parents and teachers are realizing the importance of this and are thinking of ways to help students improve this skill."
Another interesting finding from the PISA survey was that girls can be better than boys at working together. They said girls show more positive attitudes （态度）to wards relationships, which means they are more willing to listen to other' opinions.
PISA also found that the classroom environment can influence how well students collaborate. In classes where there are a lot of activities that require communication such as class debates, students might have better attitudes towards collaborating.

As an English person, I can speak three languages English, German and French, so do you think the British people are very good language learners? The fact is that they aren't.
Some statistics （数据） from the survey done by the European Commission （欧盟委员会） showed that 62% of the British people only speak English. 38% speak at least one foreign language and 18% speak two or more Compared with the British people, 56% of the people in other European countries speak at least one foreign language and 28% speak two or more. From this you can see that the British people are famous for not speaking foreign languages and that they are not good language learners in Europe.
And the survey also showed that English is the most widely-spoken foreign language. Many European people can have a conversation in English. That's why many people don't think it is necessary to learn a foreign language.
In Britain, students aren't required to learn a foreign language. That means learning a foreign language is only a choice at school. In British schools it's common for children to start learning a foreign language at 11 and many of them give it up at 14. So why don't students continue learning foreign languages at school? Because they think it's more difficult to get good marks in languages than in other subjects such as science or history.
To solve this situation, the British government is looking for different ways to improve language learning at school. One way is to start learning it at a much younger age. Another one is to give school children more choices.
1.What can we learn from the first two paragraphs?
A.The people in England are good at learning languages.
B.Most of British people only speak English.
C.British people are known for speaking foreign languages.
D.Most of British people want to learn more than one language.
2.How many ways will the British government use to improve language learning?
A.One. B.Two. C.Three. D.Four.
3.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.People in other European countries speak English as much as British people.
B.One British student can't give up learning a foreign language until 14.
C.Students in Britain prefer to learn science or history rather than learn a foreign language.
D.It's unusual for British students not to learn a foreign language.
