Are You Happy?
When a worker was asked “Are you happy? (Ni Xing Fu Ma?)” by a CCTV reporter, he answered, “My family name is Zeng (Wo Xing Zeng).” It became a joke on the Internet.
Similarly, when asked “Are you happy?” a 73-year-old man collecting used bottles in a street in Zhejiang, said, “The bottles can be sold for 0.1 yuan each.” When the reporter asked him again, he said, “The country gives me 650 yuan a month. Our country is good.” The reporter went on asking, “My question is, ‘Are you happy?’” The old man answered, “My hearing is not good.” It’s a way to avoid (避免) answering the question.
In fact, “Xing Fu” (happiness) has become a popular word since the show. The survey results from the reporters showed they were happy. But many people don’t believe the survey results. Online surveys showed more than half of the interviewees(受访者) saying they were unhappy.
When someone asked Mo Yan who got the Nobel Prize for Literature this year “Are you happy?” Mo answered,” I don’t know if I am happy or not. I never think about this question. I think happiness means you are healthy and worry-free.”
The online interviewees said openly that they are not happy because of the difficulties they face. The reasons for the unhappiness can be from healthcare, education and jobs.
It is good that many TV programs give common people chances to voice their opinions. And they become focusing on people’s happiness, but they should have a “down to earth” attitude and find a proper way.
52. What does the 73-year-old man do?
A. He is a worker. B. He collects and sells used bottles. C. He is a writer.
53. Why did the old man answer “ My hearing is not good”?
A. Because he would like the reporter to know he was ill.
B. Because he was busy.
C. Because he tried to avoid answering the question.
54. According to Mo Yan, what is “happiness”?
A. Getting the Nobel Prize.
B. Being healthy and no worries.
C. Writing a lot of books.
55. Why are those interviewees unhappy?
A. Because they face difficulties.
B. Because they are too busy.
C. Because they are not interviewed.
56. What does the writer think of the survey?
A. He agrees with the result from the reporter.
B. He doesn’t believe the results.
C. He thinks the interviewees didn’t do a good job.
D
Wanting: I want nothing but music
Wanting Qu has become one of the most popular singers in China this year.

When the chance came, she bravely introduced herself to the CEO of Nettwerk and became the first Chinese singer-songwriter the company signed in 26 years.
Wanting’s music career started to take off in 2009 when she worked in Nettwerk. In 2011, after hearing the songs she wrote and recorded, the famous Chinese composer(创作者) Zhang Yadong called her and would like to work with her.
With all the successes she has gained in China, Wanting is recording her first English album. She is ready to conquer the world.
57. “Stay in my song” is a .
A. a movie. B. a TV program. C. a song
58. What is the meaning of “ take off” in this passage?
A. 腾飞 B.下滑 C. 关掉
