A murder will occur this weekend in the peaceful seaside town of Langley, Washington. In fact, a murder has occurred there every February for the past 25 years. But don’t panic! It’s all part of the town’s yearly Mystery Weekend.
What began as a local event in 1984 now attracts visitors from over the U.S. and even abroad. Would-be detectives（侦探）arrive and check in at the visitor center on Saturday. There, they receive a packet, including a newspaper with details about the crime and information telling where to find clues（线索）. Participants then travel to various shops, restaurants and other downtown locations, picking up clues as they go. Along the way, they encounter and interview
suspects played by local townspeople. Most Langley residents participate in some way in the Mystery Weekend, a true community（社区）event.

Hannah Teter looks like a typical teenager, not someone you would expect to see in a luxurious (奢张月多高
华的) hotel. But that’s exactly where she was, transformed from a small town girl with big dreams to a gold-medal snowboarder getting the big-time "star" treatment.

And it looks like she is doing just that. She is starting a sugar brand named "Hannah’s Gold", and the profits(利润) will go to World Vision, an international charity that helps everyone from orphans（孤儿）in Asia to AIDS victims in Africa.

第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分2014分）
“Any fool can criticize, condemn, and complain (抱怨) but it takes character and self control to be understanding and forgiving.”—
Dale Carnegie
If we really want to be happy, why do we act like such babies?
We can claim(声称) to be proactive（主动的）in our life by settings goals and going after what we want. But if we’re always w hining and complaining all the time, are we really living effectively?
71 Whether it be being stuck in traffic, being bothered by the weather, not enough mustard on your sandwich, or whatever it is, there are endless instances where you can find a reason to complain.
But it’s not just outside circumstances that we complain
about. 72 We complain about about ourselves too. We complain that we don’t have enough time, we don’t have enough mone y (this one is huge because it’s often “true”), that we’re not smart enough, cool enough, or just enough.
73 I never really thought about it much until I found this website about “living in a complain free world.”
Imagine how much happier you would be if you simply stopped complaining? Much of what you complain about is outside of your control anyway. What’s the point of brooding about something you have no power to change? 74
Simply becoming conscious of how much you complain is the first step to stopping. When you recog
nize that you’re complaining, stop and take notice of it. Ask yourself if you would rather complain, or be happy.
75
A．We complain about ourselves too.
B．Not very intelligent, if you ask me.
C．Why can’t we complain about things around us?
D．Are you ready to live a complaint – free, happier life?
E．What you’re complaining about may make you quite unhappy.
