A
There was once an old woman. She lived in the hills. All the children liked to ask her questions. She always gave the right answers.
There was a naughty (淘气的) little boy among the children. One day he caught a very small bird and held it in his cupped hands. Then he had an idea. He said to his friends, “Let’s trick (捉弄) the old woman. I’ll ask her what I’m holding in my hands. Of course, she’ll answer that I have a bird. Then I will ask her if the bird is alive or dead. If she says the bird is dead, I’ll open my hands and let the bird fly away. If she says the bird is alive, I’ll quickly crush it and show her the dead bird. Either way, she’ll be wrong.”
The children agreed that this was a clever plan. Up the hill they went to the old woman’s home.
“Granny, we have a question for you,” they all shouted.
“What’s in my hands?” asked the little boy.
“Well, it must be a bird,” answered the old woman.
“But is it alive or dead?” asked the excited boy again.
The old woman thought for a moment and then answered, “It is as you will, my child.”

Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. Aristotle, a Greek thinker, said, “Happiness depends upon ourselves.” In other words, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.
The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future-----for example, getting into college or getting a good job —that we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life’s simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.
Another secret to living a happy life is to be active, and have hobbies where you forget your problems and time. Many people experience this dancing, or playing a sport, such as swimming. You can forget about your problems, and only think about the activity.

Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, do good things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping to buy food for an elderly person, or simply help out around the house by washing the dishes.
( ) 41.How many pieces of advice on happiness does the writer give us?
A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.
( ) 42.What is the' main idea of the second paragraph (段落)?
A.The more friends you have, the happier you'll be.
B.We should think about our future.
C.Happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life.
D.Some people fail to live a happy life.
( ) 43.What is the writer's opinion of the last paragraph?
A.Hobbies take up too much time.
B.People should think more of their future.
C.Everyone knows how to live a happier life.
D.Doing good things for someone can make you happier.
( ) 44.Which of the following is NOT mentioned(提及) in the passage?
A. Reading a good book. B. Traveling to a foreign country.
C. Playing sports. D. Spending time with close friends.
