　　“ If you want to see a thing well, reach out and touch it !” That may seem a strange thing to say. But touching things can help you to see them better.

　　Your eyes can tell you that glass ball is round. But by holding it in your hands, you can feel how smooth and cool the ball is. You can feel how heavy the glass is.

　　When you feel all these about the ball, you really see it.

　　With your skin , you can feel better. For example, your fingers can tell the difference between two coins in your pocket. You can feel a little drop of water on the back of your hand, too.

　　You can even feel sounds against your skin. Have you ever wanted to know why some people like very loud music? They must like to feel the sounds of music.

　　All children soon learn what “Don’t touch!” means. They hear it often. Yet most of us keep on touchings as we grow up. In shops, we touch things we might buy, such as food, clothes and so on. To see something well, we have to touch it.

　　The bottoms of our feet can feet things too. You know this when you walk on warm sand, cool grass or a bad floor. All feel different under your feet.

　　There are ways of learning to see well by feeling.

　　One way is to close your eyes and try to feel everything that is touching your skin. Feel the shoes on your feet, the clothes on your body, the air on your skin. At first, it is not easy to feel these things. Yor are too used to them!

　　Most museums are just for looking. But today some museums have some things to touch.. Their signs say, “Do touch! There you can feel everything on show. If you want to see better, reach out and touch. Then you’ll really see!”.

　　I find it good to be alone the greater part of the time. To be in company, even with the best, is soon boring, and I never found a companion so companionable as solitude (獨處,孤獨) .

　　We are for the most part more lonely when we go abroad than we stay in our rooms, for solitude is not measured by the space that comes between a man and his fellows.

　　The farmer, who can work alone all day without feeling lonesome, but must recreate(消遣) with others at night, wonders how the students can sit alone at night; he does not realize the student, though in the house, is actually at work in his field and cutting his wood as the farmer was in his.

　　Society is commonly too cheap:we meet at very short intervals(間隔), not having had time to acquire any new value for each other;we meet at meals three times a day and try to give each other a new taste of that musty old cheese that we are; we live thick and are in each other’s way, and I think that we thus lose some respect for one another.

　　We have now agreed on a certain set of rules, called manners and politeness, to make this frequent meeting tolerable ; certainly less frequency would suffice(足夠) for all important and hearty communications between men.

　　It would be better if there were but one inhabitant to a square mile, as where I live, for as the value of a man is not in his skin, we need not touch him.

　　46.It can be inferred from the passage that solitude is________________.

　　A.boring

　　C.sound

　　D.understandable

　　47.According to the author, a person can be more lonely among men than by himself at home because ___________________.

　　The way people hold to the belief that a fun-filled, pain free life equals happiness actually reduces their chances of ever attaining real happiness. If fun and pleasure are equal to happiness then pain must be equal to unhappiness. But in fact, the opposite is true: more often things that lead to happiness involve some pain.

　　As a result, many people avoid the very attempts that are the source of true happiness. They fear the pain inevitably brought by such things as marriage, raising children, professional achievement, religious commitment(承擔的義務)，self-improvement.

　　Ask a bachelor(單身漢)why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfying. If he is honest he will tell you that he is afraid of making a commitment. For commitment is in fact quite painful. The single life is filled with fun, adventure, excitement. Marriage has such moments, but they are not its most distinguishing features.

　　Couples with infant children are lucky to get a whole night’s sleep or a three-day vacation. I don’t know any parent who would choose the word “fun” to describe raising children. But couples who decide not to have children never know the joys of watching a child grow up or of playing with a grandchild.

　　Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun is one of the most liberating realizations. It liberates time: now we can devote more hours to activities that can genuinely increase our happiness. It liberates money: buying that new car or those fancy clothes that will do nothing to increase our happiness now seems pointless. And it liberates us from envy: we now understand that all those who are always having so much fun actully may not be happy at all.

　　51. According to the author, a bachelor resists marriage chiefly because_______________.

　　he is reluctant to take on family responsibilities

　　he believes that life will be more cheerful if he remains single

　　he finds more fun in dating than in marriage

　　he fears it will put an end to all his fun, adventure and excitement

　　52. Raising children, in the author’s opinion is ______________..

　　A. a moral duty

　　B. a thankless job

　　C. a rewarding task

　　D. a source of inevitable pain

　　53. From the last paragraph, we learn that envy sometimes stems from__________________..

　　A. hatred

　　B. misunderstanding

　　C.prejudice

　　D. ignorance

　　54. To understand what true happiness is one must_________________.

　　have as much fun as possible during one’s lifetime.

　　make every effort to liberate oneself from pain

　　put up with pain under all circumstances

　　be able to distinguish happiness from fun

　　55. What is the author trying to tell us?

　　Happiness often goes hand in hand with pain.

　　One must know how to attain happiness.

　　It is important to make commitments.

　　It is pain that leads to happiness.
