Mark Zukerberg is the founder and CEO of Facebook, an extremely popular social working website that started in the United States.
Now, millions of student users visit Facebook daily and the website is one of the top ten most widely visited sites on the internet worldwide. College and high school students use Facebook to communicate with friends and share both information and pictures for free. The company earns money through advertising.
Many other companies have been rumored(谣传) to be interested in buying Facebook. Just a few years after Mark started the company, he was approached by Terry Semel, who was the CEO of Yahoo. Terry offered Mark one billion dollars ($1,000,000,000) to sell Facebook to Yahoo. Mark said no, though. He stands behind his dreams at the very beginning. He knows the value of the company could fall down; however, he is in this to build something unbelievable, not be bought out by another company.
Maybe he was smart. Now Facebook is rumored to be worth billions of dollars and bigger companies like Microsoft or Google want a share of the company. Some private firms are also interested. Facebook could sell 15 billion dollars if Mark decided to sell it at all. Perhaps Mark will just keep working from his California office to continue his dream of building something cool.

If practicing an attitude of gratitude(感激) during the storms of life is too much for you right now, that’s OK. When things are tough, most people have a hard time being thankful. They’re so caught up in what’s wrong in the present moment that they simply can’t see some things are still right.
If that’s true for you, then accept it. You’re going through a particularly difficult or unhappy period of time, and you don’t like it one bit. Very normal, very human. But remember this: there is always something to be grateful for. It may be only a small comfort right now, but it is a start. Make a list of some of the terrible things that didn’t happen. For example:
You’re in debt… but you’re not homeless.
You lost your job… but you didn’t lose your health.
You broke your leg… but you didn’t break your neck.
Your mother has Alzheimer’s disease… but your father doesn’t.
No matter how bad things are, they could always be worse. Smart finding gratitude for what might have happened, but didn’t. it does help a lot. Of course, you may not be thankful for everything – but you can always be thankful for something.
49. How many “terrible things that didn’t happen” are listed in this passage?
A. Two B. Three C. Four D. Five
50. The writer thinks it _______ for people to feel unhappy in time of difficulty.
A. necessary B. normal C. great D. hopeful
51. What is the purpose of this passage?
A. To discuss ways to make a list of terrible things.
B. To explain what is gratitude towards the storms of life.
C. To persuade people to be thankful for what didn’t happen.
D. To show people different ways to consider their tough situation.
52. How is the passage organized?
A. Explanation—Comparison—Topic B. Argument—Opinion—Discussion
C. Comparison—Argument—Explanation D. Introduction—Discussion—Conclusion

One possible student version:
Nowadays, a lot of people are reportedly unwilling to help others. However, Liu Fang acted differently.
Last Sunday afternoon, on her way back to school, Liu Fang came across an old man lying on the ground, seriously hurt in the leg. She immediately stopped, called 120 and practices first aid. Soon, the ambulance came. When everything was OK, she left for school.
Such is Liu Fang, a helpful, positive and determined person. Although there might be misunderstanding or even trouble when we do good, I strongly believe that she has done the right thing. As responsible citizens, it is our duty to help people in need. Also, helping others means helping ourselves in a sense, doesn’t it?
