You don’t need to care about those who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and lots of money and so on. Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads in their free time. In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you; when you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health; when you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you; when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are your happiness. If you notice them, you can see that happiness is always around you. Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor,you can also say you are very happy, because you have something else that can’t be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge yourself. As the saying goes, life is like a revolving(旋转) door. When it closes, it also opens. If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person. ( ) 51.Happiness is for____. A. those who have large and beautiful houses. B. those who have lots of money. C. all people. ( ) 52. When you do something wrong, ________ A. people around you will help you B. your classmates will laugh at you C. you will be happy ( )53.Which is TRUE according to the passage?. A. When you get success, your friends will be very proud of you B. You can get help from others when you make mistakes. C. All of the above. ( )54. We say “Happiness is not the same as money.”, because________. A. money always brings happiness B. money doesn’t always bring happiness. C. everything can be bought with money. ( )55. Which is the best title of the passage? A. Happiness B. Happy and Lucky C. Life and Success. 四．根据汉语提示完成句子，注意单词形式。
