ABook towns started with Hay-on-Wye in the UK: now there are communities around the world that celebrate the written word.Biblo Toyen, OsloThis children-only library is aimed at 10 to 15 year olds. Adults are not allowed in and must wait outside for their children to come out. The library is run along normal lines, with library Cards for borrowing books, and is particularly well suited to children after the school day is over.After consulting young readers in focus groups, the designers have put a truck with a functional kitchen in the back (the library also runs activities including cookery courses) and a reading sofa. Books are arranged by themes, which means no book has a fixed location. At night, a machine flies around the library to scan and update the books' positions.Bellprat, Catalonia, SpainIn many ways, this small village is the ideal book town. It is in a beautiful rural setting in Catalonia's Anoia region, yet only 90km from Barcelona. It has an attractive centre and its population is enthusiastic about throwing open its doors to book-loving visitors, Bellprat is also the first book town in Catalonia.During the town's main festival on the first weekend in June-several village houses are temporarily turned into secondhand book shops, as there are not enough stalls(摊位) in the market. The books on sale are mainly in the Catalan language, however As well as promoting the village, the book town label is used for good causes: at a recent festival, there was an activity in which books could be exchanged in return for donations to a food bank. Other book based events range from meetings and readings to events run by independent publishers.This is very much a community run book town From simple beginnings in 2008. it now offers visitors more than 20.000 books for sale This is impressive, given that the population of the village is under 100.1. what may people see if they are in the library in Biblo Toyen?A.

Hold meetings among publishers.BShane McDaniel posted photos of him and his twin sons surrounded by enough firewood to fill 80 trucks on Facebook. They'd spent months cutting and piling up the firewood, valued at about $10,000. However, they had no intention of selling it- they were giving it away to people in need. "No one feels cold in our neighborhood this holiday season," McDaniel wrote in his post, offering to deliver firewood, free of charge, to neighbors who needed a hand heating their homes.Cutting firewood is their favorite activity. By late summer, the McDaniels' house was surrounded by a big wall of firewood. Once the firewood started piling up high, people would pull up daily and ask to buy some. "We politely told them none of it was for sale and they'd look at us like we were crazy," Shane McDaniel said, adding that he was surprised at how many people burned firewood as their only source of heat.Since early November, McDaniel and his sons have brought the firewood to hundreds of people who don't have money to heat their homes, and there was still more firewood to be delivered. Single mom Katelyn Ticer, who lived in a mobile home in Lake Stevens with her 3-year- old daughter, was excited to get a delivery from the McDaniels, as a wood-burning stove was her only source of heat." Getting that much firewood moved me to tears," Ticer said. "I couldn't be more thankful."Once the McDaniels' generosity was widely known to people, others in the Lake Stevens community started joining in, Local food bank volunteers helped sort through the firewood requests and make delivery lists. A company offered free chimney cleaning. There are so many donation offers, and people show up day or night to drop off truckloads of firewood to add to the McDaniels' pile.4 .Why did MeDaniel make the post on Facebook?A. To call on more people to join him in helping others.B. TO share his experience of cutting firewood.C. To offer the firewood he cut down for free.D. To sell the firewood he gathered.5. What made people surprised at the MeDaniels?A. They cut down so much firewood.B. They didn't want to sell the firewood.C. They put the firewood near their house.D. They needed so much firewood to heat their house.6. What do we know about Katelyn Ticer?A. She suffered from lack of firewood.B. She knew the McDaniels for a long time.C. She helped with the delivery of firewood.D. She made the news widely known to people.7. What does the last paragraph intend to tell us?A. East or west, home is best.B. Many hands make light work.C. A friend in need is a friend indeed.D. Little people can make a big difference.CA green field runs along the northern border of Chicago's O'Hare International Airport, next to one of its runways. This is the workplace of some most unusual employees, who spend their time eating as much as they want.These seasonal workers are farm animals- goats, sheep and one donkey(驴) who help manage the landscape of one of America's busiest airports by eating overgrown vegetation. Goats, in particular, are increasingly used to eat grass at parks in urban areas. But at an airport, the hungry herd(畜群) serves a different purpose. They clear long grasses and invasive species. Their eating helps make habitats less attractive to wild animals that can disturb airport operations, like, a raccoon(浣熊) on a runway, or unfortunate birds caught in a flight path. "Tall grass provides harbor for small mammals(哺乳动物) that are then food for bigger creatures like eagles. We suggest short grass," says a biologist working with O'Hare. The donkey has an extra job: He protects his colleagues from wolves, which see the field as a site for their buffet.The airport chooses a new group of grass-eaters every year. This latest group belongs to Andrew Tokarz, who raised them on his farm in Lemont, Illinois. They arrived in June 2019 and stayed for three months. During this time, they ate their way across 11.5 acres of land, which was separated from the dangerous runway by a fence(栅栏), and the road, by a river and electric fencing.One might think the noise of planes might frighten these gentle employees. Tokarz's animals stopped when they first heard the noise, but they quickly realized the source wasn't threatening. When the third one came by, they didn't even raise their heads. "Actually they acclimated within five minutes," he says.As the herd settles, the area becomes less welcoming to dangerous wildlife which is for their good, as they wouldn't get into dangerous zones. An airport is a terrible place for wildlife like birds. But it's a perfect place for the grass-eaters.8. Where does the herd of farm animals work?A. Around a small river.B. In an area close to a runway.C. Around n park near the airport.D. On a farm near the airport.9 Why does O’Hare International Airport employ the herd?A. To scare away wild animals.B. To free birds caught in flight paths.C. To beautify the local environment.D. To improve the safety of the airport.10. Which is the closest in meaning to the underlined word "acclimated”in Paragraph 47A. Fitted in.B. Took off:C. Got along.D. Looked out.11. What can we infer from the text?A The donkey is there only for protection.B.No animals are welcome near the airport.C. Wolves may threaten the lives of the grass eaters.D. Tokarz's animals returned home in 2020.DRecently 1 read Nineteen Eighty-Four, a book by George Orwell set in a totalitarian state where even the language people use is controlled. Adjectives are forbidden and instead people use phrases such as "plus good" and "double plus good" to express emotions. As 1 first read this, I thought how impossible it would be in our society to have such vocabulary.However, the more I think about it, the more I realize it's happening in its own way.I type messages to my friends and alongside each are the emojis(表情符号). I often use them to emphasize something because they express my emotions much better than I ever could using just words. And I wonder, with our overuse of emojis, if we are losing the beauty and diversity of our vocabulary.English has the largest vocabulary in the world, but who's to say what it’ll be like in the future? Perhaps we will have a shorter language, full of saying "cry face" if something sad happens or using abbreviations like LOL (laugh out loud) or BRB (be right back) instead of saying the full phrases. So does this mean our vocabulary will decrease? Is this classic case of the older generations saying, "Things are no longer what they used to be. We didn't use emojis to show our emotions"?Yet when you look back over time, the power of images has always been there. Even in prehistoric times people used images to communicate, and what's even more unbelievable is that we are able to analyse those drawings and understand the meaning of them thousands of years later. Images, whether they are cave paintings or emojis, allow us to express a message that's not restrictive but rather universal.12. What did the author think of the vocabulary used by people in the novel at first?A. Colorful.B. Interesting.C. Unbelievable.D. Mysterious.13. Why does the author mention his typing messages to friends?A. To show the emoji has been a form of communication.B. To explain people tend to overuse emojis today.C. To show his close relationship with friends.D. To explain why he prefers emojis to words.14. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. English will become a shorter language in the future.B. Nineteen Eighty-Four is a book on totalitarian by George Orwell.C. Abbreviations may become more popular in daily communication.D. The older generations are not likely to accept new things.15. What can be inferred about images from the last paragraph?A. They are very powerful in expressing a message.B. They will replace language in communication.C. They were only an ancient way to communicate.D. They restrict our language and communication.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5 分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

ABest Venice ToursGrand CanalConsidered to be the main street of Venice, the 2-mile-long Grand Canal is one of the city’s most popular and highly photographed attractions. If you’re hoping to hire a gondolier (贡多拉船夫) for a romantic (but expensive) row along the canal, plan to pay between 80 and 120 euros for the ride. Many others suggested hopping aboard the vaporetto (水上巴士), or the public water taxi, for a much cheaper experience. Vaporetto Line I travels down the Grand Canal. Travel experts strongly recommend purchasing a Venezia Unica City Pass if you don’t plan on walking the entirety of your trip due to the high cost of one-way fare.Rialto BridgeSeveral centuries ago, the Rialto Bridge was the only way to cross the Grand Canal. There are now four major bridges that cross the canal, but the Rialto Bridge is by far the most famous. The bridge is a design work of Antonio da Ponte. Predicted to fail by critics, the bridge still stands and is considered an engineering wonder.Campanile di San MarcoThis particular bell tower was built in the early 20th century, as a reproduction of the 16th-century one, which was used by Galileo Galilei to set his telescope. It also served as a stage for tight rope walkers during the Fl ight of the Angel celebration. Today’s bell tower, with a 324-foot height, is used for sightseers who want to have a full view of Venice. To avoid crowds, travelers say it’s best to go early in the morning or late in the evening.St. Mark’s SquareSt. Mark’s Square, or Piazza San Marco, is considered to be the heart of Venice. As the largest square in Venice, St. Mark’s Square is the only “piazza” in the city. It’s strongly recommended that visitors visit the square either early in the morning or late in the evening simply because of the crowds. The restaurants and shops in the square are very expensive. It’s recommended that visitors walk a few streets away from the square to find more reasonably priced meals and souvenirs. 1．Why is a Venezia Unica City Pass recommended?A. To pay for the public transportation at a lower price.B. To ensure visitors take the best photos of the attractions.C. To enable visitors to experience a romantic trip with a gondolier.D. To help save money for the tickets of the most popular attractions.2．Which of the following attractions has some connections with space science?A. Grand Canal.B. Piazza San Marco.C. Rialto Bridge.D. Campanile di San Marco.3．In which section of a website can we probably read this text?A. Tourism.B. Food.C. Science.D.

Last year was a scary time for him and his family, but the transplant was successful, and he’s now on a path to good health.

You could do a lot… You are sure you don’t want a PlayStation?’”Abraham’s whole family thought it was a great idea, especially since they’ve tried to teachtheir kids to give freely and openly to others whenever possible. In the 13-year-old’s words, “My parents always taught us t hat it’s a blessing to be a blessing.”Make-A-Wish granted Abraham’s special request, spending a day in September handing out ,free plates of food to people experiencing homelessness in Jackson, Mississippi. Local businesses donated all of the food and supplies, and together they managed to feed about 80 people!Abraham said seeing the gratitude on their faces made his wish come true and “warms our hearts”. Now the Make-A-Wish team will continue Abraham’s program named Abraham’s Table every month.We’re just very excited to be able to continue on this program. It’s just so rewarding.” Miriam said. “If I was out there on the streets, homeless, I would want somebody at some point to think of me and to do something special for me. So, that’s what I try to te ach my kids and we just try to pay it forward, by doing what we were raised to do.”4．What did Abraham Olagbegi request as a wish?A. A gaming system.B.

It’s also leading our next generation towards increased rates of obesity (肥胖), according to the findings of a new survey.A national survey of 1,006 parents found that close to half of all 12 to 18 years old teenagers can’t boil an egg; 1 in 5 only have kitchen skills that allow them to pour milk on cereal; 42%can’t boil noodles; 83.9%don’t know how to roast a chicken; 60.1 percent can’t bake a potato.Research company Pureprofile asked parents to judge how well their kids could perform in the kitchen across some tasks. More than half (67.3%) of parents believe their children could do betterwhen it comes to healthy food and lifestyle knowledge. Close to half of parents (42.5%) believe poor food choices are caused by lack of education at middle school, with 9 in 10 parents in support of schools doing more to encourage a healthy lifestyle.Miriam Raleigh, an expert on the relationship between food and health, said she was already seeing a generation of young parents who had “no idea how to cook”. “They depend on convenience meals and easy snacks, and those foods often have a higher fat and salt content which can lead to obesity and a lot of health problems,” Ms Raleigh said.The school’s Kitchen Garden program founder, Stephanie Alexander, said that if more was not done to improve the situation we would be heading towards a generation of fatter and more unhealthy kids. Ms Alexander also said she would introduce her Kitchen Garden program into middle schools so teenagers can learn the art of cooking food.“I’m so proud of what we have achieved in the primary school and I really believe we can have the same success in middle schools,” she said.8．What did the national survey find about Australian teenagers?A.

The divers hope to restore part of Cuba’s barrier reef (堡礁). And they are working with limited financial support and using materials recovered from the coast.Luis is one of the project’s leaders. The 44-year-old fisherman grew up on Cuba’s north coast. He said, “It’s incredible to see the loss of coral in the past 30 years.” He added, “Our dream is tomake the parts of the barrier reef that have lost their coral grow again.”To make that happen, Luis worked with other dive instructors and neighborhood schoolchildren with the support from Cuba’s environmental organizations. They began collecting pieces of coral spread across the ocean floor after large storms three years ago. The pieces were then hung on branches of underwater “trees” made from old plastic pipes and supported by fishing lines recovered from the coast. They were then “replanted” on the coral reef, fixed by nails driven into the rock. In a year, most survive and grow enough to repopulate the part of the barrier reef between 60 to 80 meters in length.Like many coral reefs around the world, the ones in Cuba are threatened by changing water temperatures, destructive plants and animals, pollution and over-fishing. It is reported that the world has already lost 30 to 50 percent of its coral reefs.Karine is a French diver who just visited Cuba for the first time. She said the reef looked better than others she had seen on dives elsewhere in the world, including in Africa. “The cora l needs to be protected,” she said after two dives on a recent trip to nearby Varadero. She said, “It’s good to see that in Cuba they take care of what they have, and that it is still not too affected by too much tourism.”12．What can we infer from the rec overy of the Cuba’s barrier reef?A. It is just a new project to start.B. It is a slow and difficult process.C. It is mainly carried out by schoolchildren.D. It is greatly supported by the government.13．How do the dive instructors fix the pieces of coral on the reef?A. They are fastened to the rock by fishing lines.B. They are supported by the trees on the ocean floor.C. They are placed firmly by nails driven into the rock.D. They are hung by old plastic pipes collected on the coast.14．What does the underlined word “destructive” in paragraph 4 mean?A. Endangered.B. Beneficial.C. Plentiful.D. Harmful.15．What is Karine’s attitude towards the Cubans’ effort to recover the coral reef?A. Doubtful.B. Concerned.C. Positive.D. Disappointed.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

ADo you like museums? Have you been to the Louvre in Paris, the Museum of Anthropology in Mexico City or any of those other “must see” museums? Well, now it’s time to go off the beaten path. There are some museums that try to be a little different.The Kimchi Museum, Seoul, South KoreaIf you don’t know about kimchi, a trip to the Kimchi Museum is an eye-opening experience. The museum was founded in 1986 to highlight South Korea’s rich kimchi culture. The show includes displays of cooking utensils and materials related to making, storing, and eating the famous pickled vegetables. The museum also provides details about the history and nutritional (有营养的) benefits of South Korea’s most beloved side dish. Finally, stop by t he souvenir (纪念品) shop to try various types of kimchi. Don’t forget to buy your favourite kind to bring home for dinner!The Museum of Gold, Bogota, ColombiaIf you want to see beautiful objects, the Museum of Gold is the place. It holds one of South Ameri ca’s most amazing collections. Because the exhibits (展品) shine so brightly, you can take photographs without using a flash on your camera! Not everything is made of gold, though. Among the exhibits are ancient pre-Columbian items. Many of them are made from a mixture of gold and copper, known as tumbaga. The museum also features coins, jewelry, and pieces of rare art.The Chocolate Museum, Cologne, GermanyThe Chocolate Museum will teach you everything about chocolate-from cocoa bean to candy bars. You’ll learn about chocolate’s 3,000-year history and discover how it was once used as money in South America. Did you know that it wasn’t popular in Europe until the nineteenth century? A real chocolate factory shows you how chocolate is made. After you’ve finish ed the tour, you can have a free drink of rich, sticky pure chocolate-perfect for those with a sweet tooth.21．What is the main characteristic of the exhibits in the Museum of Gold?A. They are made entirely of pure gold.B. They are ancient pre-Columbian items.C. They shine brightly, allowing flash-free photography.D. They are made of tumbaga, a mixture of gold and copper.22．What do the museums in Seoul and Cologne in the passage have in common?A. They display amazing collections of the food.B. They offer visitors a chance to taste the food.C. They sell varieties of souvenirs about the food.D. They tell visitors the nutritional benefits of the food.23．Where can you find this passage?A. In a textbook.B. In an advertisement.C. In a brochure.D. In an encyclopedia.BMost of us know about hurricanes, droughts, and floods. But from time to time, nature delivers a weather event that is really unusual.One day in 2005, people in a small town in Serbia saw an unusual sight. It was raining frogs! Without any warning, they found their streets filling with the little jumping creatures. “There were thousands of them,” one person told a local newspaper. “I tho ught perhaps a plane carrying frogshad exploded (爆炸),” said another. Scientists believe a tornado passed over a lake and sucked (吸) up the frogs. It then dropped them on the town, far away. Surprisingly, many survived the fall to the ground.As if tornado es aren’t dangerous enough, some can actually be made of fire. When a wildfire reaches very high temperatures, it causes the air to heat up and then rise. Cooler air moves quickly to replace the hot air. This create s strong winds, which suck up the fire. When this happens — like it did in 2014, in Denver, United States-a fire tornado is created. A tornado like this can become 15meters wide and grow as tall as a 40-store y building. It is one of nature’s most frightening creations.In 1942, hundreds of thousand-year-old skeletons (骨架) were found under the ice of Lake Roopkund in the Himalayas. Many had holes in their skulls-but they weren’t hurt in any other way. For years, the cause of their deaths was a mystery. Today, scientists think they were killed by giant hailstones. Hailstones are balls of ice that form when raindrops turn into ice. The ice pieces increase in size until the wind cannot hold them up. This results in hailstones falling to the ground, often at speeds of over 160 kilometers an hour. For the unlucky people at Lake Roopkund, there was nowhere to run. Sadly, they were all killed that day.24．Why did the frogs appear in Serbia one day in 2005?A. A large flood washed the frogs down.B. The frogs were brought by heavy rains.C. A plane carrying the frogs had exploded.D. The frogs were dropped by a strong wind. 25．What does the underlined word “this” refer to in paragraph 3?A. Hot air rises from the fire.B. Strong winds suck up the fire.C. Cooler air removes the hot air.D. Wildfires reach high temperatures. 26．What can we know about the skeletons at Lake Roopkund?A. They were turned into ice balls.B. They had no signs of injury.C. They showed the force of nature.D. They were hundreds of years old. 27．Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. When Strange Weather StrikesB. Protect Ourselves In DisastersC. The Great Power of NatureD. What Causes Extreme WeatherCGuangzhou has long been famous for various kinds of flowers and local people have developedtheir enthusiasm for flowers since the time of Nanyue King in the Western Han Dynasty, which was founded over 2,000 years ago.According to historical records, in the Western Han Dynasty, blooming flowers were seen everywhere in ancient Guangzhou, also known as Canton. Many people, whether men or women, wore flowers as decorations (装饰). There were even more varieties of flowers and plants grow n in the royal garden owned by Zhao Tuo, the founder of Nanyue Kingdom.During the Tang and Song dynasties, Huadi, the land of flowers in Chinese, located in present-day Fangcun area of Guangzhou, was where Datong Port (港口), a major harbor for foreign trade, lay. Many businessmen from different places brought various flower seeds to the port by sea, turning a large wetland into flower fields. Besides, Cantonese farmers also grew flowers on the farmlands of thirty-three villages located south of the Pearl River.The flower trade also contributed to the boom (繁荣) of Canton, which was the starting point of the ancient Maritime Silk Road (海上丝绸之路). As early as the Western Han Dynasty, people of Lingnan region had sailed to Sri Lanka. In the Tang and Song dynasties, a shipping route of over 14,000 kilometers was established, allowing people to travel to as far as the Persian Gulf. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, several ocean-crossing routes had connected Canton with many other parts of the world. In the period of Emperor Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty, Canton was served as the only port open for foreign trade.Starting off from the Lingnan region, all kinds of flowers found their way to the West, including camellia and Chinese rose, which were developed into more varieties in only 300 years.The ancient Maritime Silk Road played a key role in supporting the selling of locally-grown flowers of the Lingnan region to other countries. It also brought special foreign flowers from countries and regions along the route to Canton, which promoted the city’s fame for giving people excellent views of blossoms of flowers in all seasons.28．What’s the function of paragraph 2?A. To introduce the topic.B. To make a comparison.C. To raise readers’ interest.D. To support the content above.29．What was Huadi known for during the Tang and Song dynasties?A. Being a major harbor for foreign trade within China.B. Developing new varieties of flowers in only 300 years.C. Growing various flower seeds brought by businessmen.D. Serving as the starting point of the Maritime Silk Road.30．What can be inferred from paragraph 4?A. The ancient Maritime Silk Road led to the flower trade in Canton.B. Emperor Qianlong paid special attention to Canton’s development.C. Canton developed into the starting point of the long world trade route.D. Trade with foreigners decreased to a large degree in the Qing Dynasty.31．What’s the main idea of the text?A. Huadi had an important effect on the development of Canton.B. Canton’s economic success roots back to the Western Han Dynasty.C. The long-standing tradition of flower contributed to Canton’s history.D.

Meet 73-year-old Catia Lattouf, an eager bird lover who has turned her apartment into a home for these tiny, lively birds.In a city where green spaces are not enough, and c ity wildlife is often pushed to the edges, Lattouf’s love for hummingbirds began in 2011, just a year after recovering from a deadly illness, when she began caring for a hummingbird that had an eye injured by another bird. She named the bird Gucci after the brand (品牌) of the eyeglasses case where she kept it and soon they became the best of friends. The tiny hummingbird rested on Lattouf’s computer screen while she worked.“It was a good medicine for my spirit,” Lattouf said of Gucei, adding, “It gave me a new life.” Gucci was the first, but many hummingbirds came to be cared for by Lattouf.For years Lattouf’s home had been a bird shelter, but she was concerned about whether she would be able to meet the requirements of hummingbirds. However, since then, Lattouf has worked to make the public realize the importance of hummingbirds and has saved and freed hundreds of them. Hummingbirds are an important part of the American food web. They help control the population of insects. Although they’re small in size, their diet includes the mosquitoes, spiders and fruit flies. Hummingbirds also pollinate (授粉) a wide variety of flowering plants from Alaska to the southernmost point of South America, which is especially important for native plant species. In fact, some plants depend almost completely on hummingbirds for pollination.Through her effort, Lattouf has shown that even in the heart of a big city, it is possible to coexist (共存) with and protect the natural world.

The reason for this is that the museum said in August that about 2, 000 objects had been stolen or missing.The museum is one of the busiest in the world. It holds objects such as the Rosetta Stone, the Parthenon Marbles — known as the Elgin Marbles — and ancient stones and jewelry (珠宝) .The leader, or chair of the museum, is George Osborne. He recently told the Culture, Media and Sport Committee of Parliament that he believed a person who worked at the museum was responsible. Osborne called it “an inside job by someone who the museum had put trust in.” He said the person took objects from the museum little by little.The mus eum’s manager at the time was German art historian Hartwig Fischer. Fischer left the job in August after serving since 2016. He said he must be responsible for the thefts (盗窃) in the end. He added the museum did not react as it should have when concerns first came up that someone had been stealing.The museum head said about 350 of the 2, 000 objects have been found and are in the process of being returned. Stolen objects included gold rings, earrings and other jewelry from the ancient Greek and Roman times.The manager of the museum at present is M ark Jones. He said the museum is confident “that a theft of this kind can never happen again.” Jones added that one way to improve the museum’s safety is to show more objects to the public instead of, as he said, “simply locking objects away.”In September, the museum asked for help in finding the missing objects. The organization offered a phone number for people to call if they had information.12. Who stole the objects according to George Osborne?A．A visitor. B．An artist. C．An art dealer. D．A museumworker.13. Why did Hartwig Fischer feel sorry about the missing objects?A．He shouldn’t have trusted any worker.B．He didn’t deal with the stealing in time.C．He did not notice objects were missing. D．He shouldn’t have shown valuableobjects.14. What does Mark Jones want to do to protect their objects?A．Lock their objects away. B．Call on the public to help.C．Make more objects known. D．Keep visitors away from objects.15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A．British Museum Will Make Its Objects DigitalB．Art Lovers Will Soon Visit British Museum OnlineC．Digital Collections of World-Famous Museum Were StolenD．Stolen Objects Are Being Returned to British MuseumWhat’s the secret to happiness? Although that answer won’t be the same for everyone, you can follow daily practices to develop joy from within.Letting Go16 Bad thoughts, habits, and bad relationships may hold you back from discovering true joy. Some people believe they have found true happiness when they get promotion (晋升), buy a dream house, or find that special someone. Yet, within a few years, they may find themselves back to the past or suffering.Getting Up EarlyWaking up a bit earlier and practicing your morning life can guide you towards happiness and success. 17 And how you choose to spend those early hours will set the tone (基调) for the rest of the day. By getting up early, you’ll look forward to rising each day and doing the things that make you feel good, putting a smile on your face.Mindful EatingGood, healthy food can bring joy into your days if you choose to practice mindful eating. There is no doubt that your food choices affect your overall physical health. 18 As the old saying goes, you really are what you eat! Each food group influences you differently.What’s more, being mindful when eating can also bring happiness as you become present in the moment and focus on joy. 19Living in the NowThe secret to happiness is to live fully in the here and now. 20 And they often let fears and desires hold them back. That’s where living in the now comes to light. If you want to discover true happiness and joy, then in each moment, try to embrace (拥抱) endless presence to achieve inner peace and freedom.Tonight, I was on my flight from Indianapolis to Baltimore.
