Read the passage and choose the best answer.
HAPPINESS

Happiness is an emotion which we feel when we are full of joy. It is when a person is able to
satisfy herself. Quality of satisfaction with life is the quality of happiness. It makes us
positive. All of us try to get happiness all the time. When a person does something really
good, he feels happy. If we hurt others, we become unhappy in the end. If we make others


happy then it creates happiness in us too. It affects our mood. A happy mood gives us the
energy to work our best but an unhappy mood takes away the energy.

In a good society, people live happily. Happiness is related to the world in which we live. If we
live in a bad world then most of the time, we remain unhappy. One alone cannot be happy if
others are unhappy. It comes from our own actions. Happiness doesn’t come from
depending on others. One should not hate others. Worrying too many causes unnecessary
pain. Living in the present is happiness. We go for a vacation to take a rest from our busy
life. On vacation, we play and see new things. Seeing new things and knowing about them
makes us happy. When we are in pain, we must know that it is only in our minds. If we learn
the habit of looking at what is beautiful in life, we can be happy.

Without happiness, there is no beauty. In our lives, we should learn to focus on the positive
side. Happiness comes from such a state of mind.

1. Which of the following is NOT true, according to the passage?
A. If we make others happy, it creates happiness in us too
B. Whether we are happy or not depends on the people around us.
C. If we live in a bad world, we can’t remain happy
D. Traveling and seeing beautiful things make us feel happy.

2. The word “them” in paragraph 2 refers to _________.
A. happiness

B. new things

C. causes

D. mind

3. What is the synonym of the word “positive” in the last paragraph?
A. hopeful

B. peaceful

C. careful

D. grateful

4. Where does happiness come from?
A. unnecessary pain

C. beautiful countries

B. positive thinking

D. current worries

5. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. How to live in happy countries

C. How to create happiness

B. How not to hurt others

In 2008, Alex Lenkei had a problem with the bone in his arm and he needed a serious
operation. Normally, with an operation like that, the doctor gives the patient an


anesthetic so that he or she doesn’t feel any pain. But Lenkei refused the anesthetic.
Instead, he hypnotized himself and simply told himself that he could not feel any pain.

That took about thirty seconds. Then the operation started. According to Mr Lenkei,
pain signals do not reach his brain when he is hypnotized. The doctor, David
Llewellyn-Clerk, was a bit worried. He had to take some bone from Lenkei’s arm. He
watched Lenkei carefully during the operation, as he wasn’t sure that Lenkei could feel
no pain. ‘I didn’t think Mr. Lenkei could hear us,’ said Dr. Llewellyn-Clerk, ‘but halfway
through the operation, he said: “How’s it going?”. That’s when the doctor realized that
Lenkei was not in pain. The operation lasted 83 minutes.

Mr Lenkei started hypnotizing people when he was sixteen and is now an expert. It
wasn’t his first operation without anesthetic. In 1996, a friend hypnotized him before a
thirty-minute operation on his stomach. Both operations were successful, so Lenkei
had a third operation without anesthetic in 2013, this time on the ankle, which also
went well.

D. Dr. Llewellyn-Clerk - an expert in operations

2. The word “That” in paragraph 2 refers to ____________
A. hypnotizing

C. operation

B. watching the operation

D. giving an anesthetic

3. According to the passage, why was Dr. Llewellyn-Clerk worried?
A. Because he had to take some bone from Lenkei’sarm, and he wasn't sure that
Lenkei could feel no pain.
B. Because pain signals do not reach Mr. Lenkei’s brain when he is hypnotized.
C. Because he gave the patient an anesthetic
D. Because Lenkei had a third operation
4. The word “realized” in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ________
A. understood
