But Ge You, 53, finds it all a bit of a burden (负担). Ge fears air travel, which means he will have to travel thousands of kilometers by train and car to promote () the movies. Chen Kaiges Sacrifice (赵氏孤儿) came out on December 4. Ge plays a doctor who saves an orphan (孤儿) at the cost of his own baby. He also appears as a swindler (骗子) in Jiang Wens Let the Bullets Fly, which appears on December 16. Next es Feng Xiaogangs romantic edy, If You Are the One 2 (非诚勿扰2), to open six days later. Ge plays a middle-aged cinematographer (电影摄影师) in search of love. Ge is best known for playing ordinary characters. In Fengs popular series of new year edies he gives a convincing sense of the little man up against it (处境困难). Feng Xiaogang says the actor exhausts (使疲惫) himself trying to satisfy friends. He is also very careful not to hurt anyone. Ge is a thoughtful man who pauses a lot in conversation to think over his answers. He rarely turns down a request for an autograph or picture. There was once a fan who said to him: You wait here, I will go get a pen. Ge actually waited for the man to return. It was the 20,000th time for me to sign an autograph but it was probably a new experience for him, Ge said. The first time means a lot. He says he doesnt think of himself as a star, just as a working actor. An actor is like a worker; you do your job and go home, he said. The old saying is never far from his mind: The higher you climb, the harder you fall. 81. Which of the following statements is true? A. Ge You was very happy because three films that he played an part in were ing at the same time. B. Ge You plays a doctor in Chen Kaiges sacrifice which came out on December 16. C.

Ge You didnt want to climb higher, because its difficult to climb down. C. Ge You didnt want to be a star, because he wanted to live just like an ordinary person. D. Ge You likes the life of a star, because he likes the feeling of staying higher than others. 84. Which words can best describe Ge You? A. active and proud B. thoughtful and friendly C. humorous and proud D. active and aggressive (好斗的). 85. What is the best title? A. The higher you climb, the harder you fall. B. Ge Yous achievements. C. Ge You Im no star; Im an actor. D. Ge You a film star. B Happiness is for everyone. You dont need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on. Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads in their free time. In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you; when you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health; when you get a suess, your friends will say congratulations to you; when you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct it. And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are your happiness. If you notice a bit of them, you can see that happiness is always around you. Happiness doesnt mean money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy, because you have something that cant be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge yourself. As the saying goes, life is like a revolving（旋转的）door. When it closes, it also opens. If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person. 86. Happiness is always around you as long as you _. A. have enough money B. have a big house with a beautiful garden. C. feel it heart and soul. D. have expensive cars 87. What will your friends say when you make great progress? A. Oh, so do I. B. Good luck! C. Congratulations! D. Just so-so! 88. Which of the following is NOT true aording to the passage? A. People who have cars would never like to walk in the open air. B. You can get help from others when you are in trouble. C. You can still be a happy person even if you have little money. D. Happiness is always around you though difficulties e towards you. 89. The passage mainly tells us_. A. parents always care for our life and health B. were not happy if we meet with difficulties C. life is colorful D. happiness is always around us C What should you think about when trying to find your career? You are probably better at some school subjects than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career. A girl who spells well and likes English may be good at office work. So it is important to know the subjects you do well in at school. On the other hand, you may not have any specially strong subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. A knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs. Your school may have taught you skills, such as typing or technical d
