People have been talking about health for a long time because people know the importance of it. People's understanding of health also becomes deeper with the progress in scientific research. Recently the term "health" has come to have a wider meaning than it used to. It no longer means just the absence of illness. Today, health means the well-being of your body, your mind and your relationship with other people. This new concept of health is closely related to another term-quality of life. Quality of life is the degree of overall satisfaction that a person gets from life.
　　Why has the emphasis of health shifted from the absence of disease to a broader focus on the quality of a person's life? One reason for this has to do with the length and conditions of life that people can now expect. Medical advances have made it possible for people today to live longer, healthier lives. Imagine for a moment that you were born in the year 1900. You could have expected on average to live until about the age of 47. In contrast, if you were born in the year 1999, you could expect to live to the age of 75.

When it comes to success in business and success in life, there are few qualities as important as confidence. 
People naturally have different levels of confidence. Some have a higher level of confidence than others do, but even those whose confidence is lacking can learn to build their level of confidence and reach their most important goals. Increasing self confidence is one of the most common reasons people give for seeking the help of psychologists and other professionals.
One of the many places where a greater level of confidence is useful is in the workplace. We all know how difficult it can be, for instance, to ask the boss for a raise. This process can be extremely difficult for those who lack confidence in their own abilities. After all, if you are unsure about your own abilities, how will you ever convince your boss that you deserve more money for the work you do?
Even if you are not asking for that big raise, having plenty of confidence in your abilities is important to success. If you are certain of your abilities, chances are that those around you, whether they are your coworkers, your colleagues or your superiors, will see that confidence, and that will help to assure them that you are the best at what you do.
Being thought of as the person to go to, and being seen as an expert in your chosen field, is naturally very important to success on the job. If you can make yourself the person people go to for guidance and advice, you will help to protect yourself from the ever present danger of downsizing. After all, if you are a recognized expert at the office, you will be regarded as an indispensable member of the team.
Having a high level of confidence, after all, does not mean overlooking the places where you could improve. Knowing what you do well and where you need help will help you enjoy increased success and confidence.
小題1:What is the passage mainly about?
A．The influence of confidence on one’s life.
B．The importance of confidence to success.
C．The difference of people’s confidence.
D．The judgment on one’s confidence.
小題2:Psychologists and other professionals can offer help to those _____.
A．who think their goals are hard to reach
B．who expect to give guidance to others
C．who want to ask the boss for a raise
D．who dream to be recognized experts
小題3:What does the underlined word “indispensable” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?
A．importantB．attractiveC．outspokenD．energetic
小題4:What message does the author want to express in the last paragraph?
A．To overlook one’s disadvantages.
B．To make full use of one’s advantages.
C．To have great confidence in one’s abilities.
D．To make objective evaluations of one’s abilities.

Boys need friends, suffer when they don't believe they have any, and worry over the ups and downs of relationships. Many adults believe that somehow boys need friends less than girls do, in truth, though, no boy is an island; boys value their friends throughout childhood and adolescence and are happier and healthier when they have solid relationships with peers(同齡人)．
Despite the common belief that girls are better at relationships, most boys consider their friends a very important part of their lives, and boys may actually be better at keeping friendships than girls are. A recent study of 10 to 15­year­old boys and girls found that girls' friendships are actually more fragile. Girls tend to say and do hurtful things to each other more frequently than boys, and girls are more hurt by the end of a friendship.
Boys are the living definition of the phrase “peer group”； they love games with rules, competition, and doing things together. Boys seem to enjoy, even need the opportunity to test themselves against others, and many lasting friendships begin in karate(空手道) class or on the basketball court. Competence and skill are widely respected; being picked last for a team or left out altogether is an experience that can haunt(縈繞心頭) a boy for years.
As boys mature（成熟）, the friendship becomes even more important, and it frequently widens to include girls. During the teen years, friends can become the most important part of a boy's life—and a part in which his parents are not included. The confusion of being a teenager leads boys to form close bonds（關系） with friends. There is the sense for many boys that a friend is someone who is “always there for me”， someone he can trust. They may be partners in crime or partners in study, but the friendship of adolescent boys can run surprisingly deep.
小題1:The common belief of adults is that boys________.
A．don't care about others as much as girls
B．don't value friendship as much as girls
C．have the same friendship as girls
D．have healthier friendship than girls
小題2:According to the text, boys' friendship________.
A．is usually built around active play
B．tends to be in small groups
C．can bear mutual hurt between friends
D．doesn't suffer from failure
小題3:The author mentions the study in the second paragraph to prove ________.
A．many people believe girls are better at relationships
B．most boys consider their friends very important
C．boys may be better at keeping friendships than girls
D．boys may be more active in a friendship
小題4:As a boy gets older, he tends to________.
A．widen his circle of friends to include different kinds of people
B．shift his focus from his friends to himself
C．leave his parents out of his friendship
D．be confused about what a friendship is
小題5:What's the best title for the text?
A．Friendships between Boys and Girls
B．Boys and Their Friendship
C．Childhood and Adolescent Friendship
D．Tips on Making Friends with Boys

I am a good mother to three children. I have tried never to let my profession stand in the way of being a good parent.
I no longer consider myself the center of the universe. I show up. I listen. I try to laugh. I am a good friend to my husband. I have tried to make marriage vows(誓約) mean what they say. I am a good friend to my friends, and they to me. Without them, there would be nothing to say to you today.
So here's what I wanted to tell you today: Get a life. A real life, not a desire of the next promotion(提升), the bigger paycheck, the larger house.
Get a life in which you are not alone. Find people you love, and who love you. And remember that love is not leisure(空閑), it is work. Pick up the phone. Send an e-mail. Write a letter. And realize that life is the best thing and that you have no business taking it for granted.
It is so easy to waste our lives, our days, our hours, our minutes. It is so easy to exist instead of to live. I learned to live many years ago. Something really, really bad happened to me, something that changed my life in ways that, if I had my choice, it would never have been changed at all. And what I learned from it is what, today, seems to be the hardest lesson of all.
I learned to love the journey, not the destination. I learned to look at all the good in the world and try to give some of it back because I believed in it, completely and totally. And I tried to do that, in part, by telling others what I had learned. By telling them this: Read in the backyard with the sun on your face. Learn to be happy. And think of life as a deadly illness, because if you do, you will live it with joy and passion as it ought to be lived.
小題1:The best title of this passage probably is________.
A．Love your friends B．Live a real life
C．Don't waste time D．Be a good mother and wife
小題2:The underlined sentence "It is so easy to exist instead of to live" in the fifth paragraph probably has the same meaning as________.
A．it is so easy to keep alive but not to live a real life
B．it is very hard to live a real life
C．it is so easy to make a living
D．it is more difficult to exist than to live a happy life
小題3:What's the author's attitude toward work?
A．Do it well to serve others.
B．To earn enough money to make life better.
C．Try your best to get higher position and pay.
D．Don't let it affect your real life.
