Passage 1
Author Jasbinder Bilan was born on a farm in India.There,she lived with her big family,as well as a camel and a monkey called Oma.
When Bilan was 18 months old,her family moved to Nottingham in England. At first,they missed everything on the farm very much.So her grandmother would tell them stories of Oma and the farm.
Bilan was a teacher before she started writing books.This was a dream she had secretly held for a long time, without telling anyone. "There's a magical age around the end of primary school, when you may have dreams about the things you'd love to do," she says.She advises young people to remember these dreams and one day they might become real. Bilan creates elements (元素) of magic and reality in her novels.Many of them are often inspired (启迪) by her own life.
"One of the wonderful things about writing is to bring light to things that are important to you," she says."When a writer shares a story,it connects us to one another and brings magic into our lives."
Bilan says, "We can read about characters we admire,and they encourage us to take risks. They help us to be a little braver,and help us to realize that we are not alone."
1.When did Bilan move to England?
2.What was Bilan's secret dream?
3.Why did Bilan advise young people to remember those dreams around the end of primary school?
4.What do you think we can get from reading?

Passage 2
Most of us hope to live happily. But what is real happiness? Real happiness is a matter of experience of the soul (灵魂).You don't need to care about those people who have beautiful houses,nice cars and a lot of money. Why?

Because those people who have big houses may often feel sad and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads in their free time.
In fact, happiness is always around you. It makes you put your heart into it. When you have problems at school, your friends will help you; when you have some problems with your lessons, your parents will always look after your life and health well; 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 delighted (高兴的) too. All these are your happiness.
Money cannot always bring you happiness. When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy. When you meet with problems, you can say loudly you are very happy because you have more chances to challenge yourself. If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person.
1.What is real happiness according to the text?
2.When can we feel happy according to the text?
(List two points at least)
3.Why can problems bring people happiness?
4.What are your ways to keep happy? Write 30 words or more.
