Do you know what makes you happy or do you just think you know? At first, these two questions look the same. If you think something makes you happy, then it makes you happy. You know yourself, don't you?
Write a list of all the things that make you happy. How many of them are fun? Most of them? So if you spend your time doing all these fun things, you'll be really happy, won't you?
Well, maybe not. For most people, fun isn't enough for real happiness, Paul Dolan wrote a book called Happiness by Design. He thinks happiness comes from both pleasure and purpose. If most of the things on your list are about pleasure, that is what you think makes you happy. But you also need activities with purpose.
If you're a student, your job is studying and passing exams. It's easy to do well in subjects you like, but subjects you don't like are less motivating. They're not fun for you, but you have to study them so you need to find purpose. An A in a subject you hate won't help the world. But can you be part of a study team with friends? Each person can study one part until they understand it and then teach it to the rest of the group. The purpose becomes helping the team.
Go back to your list of things that make you happy. How many of them are activities that bring purpose? Can you add any? Remember, some activities might bring both pleasure and purpose.
Now you need to design a happy life. Paul Dolan believes people should "decide, design, do." First decide what brings you pleasure and purpose, then, don't just think about these activities, fill your life with them. For example, you might love riding a bike but never have time to do it. So ride to school or the library or the shops. If you live too far away, take your bike on the bus or train. Get off early and ride the rest of the way. If you go in the car, put it in the back, stop a few kilometres away and ride the rest. Or move somewhere you can ride more. Some parts of our lives are good or bad luck, but we can still design the rest to make more happiness.
1.According to Paul Dohn happiness is from both ________.
A.patience and luck B.pleasure and purpose
C.subjects and grades D.conditions and decisions
2.What does the word "motivating" in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A.Encouraging. B.Helpful. C.Disappointing. D.Valuable.
3.Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?
A.Destroying Happiness B.Enjoying Happiness
C.Creating Happiness D.Delivering Happiness

The Day People Started Talking
My journey home from school is nothing special. I usually find a seat and start reading or texting my friends, making sure, like everyone else, not to look at other people. Then, twenty minutes later, I get off.
But last Tuesday was different. I was happily looking out of the window when the train suddenly stopped. This wasn’t usual. Then after about five minutes, I noticed people were starting to get a bit upset. Fifteen minutes later, people started getting more and more upset. Then the announcement (广播) came: “We are sorry to announce that this train is delayed. A train has broken down in front of us.”
There was a loud groan (叹息) throughout the carriage but soon something unexpected happened: all the complete strangers started talking to each other. At first, everyone just complained about the trains, but then people started talking about real things. I started chatting to a couple of young tourists sitting opposite me. Next, I really surprised myself by talking to a businesswoman. Business people are a lot cooler than I thought. Then I decided to get up and go for a walk down the train. I met a woman who had been a student at my school seven years before.
People offered each other food and drink. A young woman took her guitar and soon we were singing along. While we were singing, we heard there was a sick boy in another part of the train who needed help, and the woman from my school jumped into action. It turned out she was a nurse, and when she came back she was welcomed as a hero.
Then, after two and a half hours, we started moving again. Everyone cheered and some people, complete strangers three hours before, even hugged.
I took the train again on Wednesday but none of my new “friends” were there. Although people were polite, they weren’t nearly as friendly as the people the day before had been. I’ll never forget the day the train stopped and people started talking.
1.What happened after the announcement? （ ）
A.People got upset and started texting their friends.
B.The children started playing with their phones.
C.The workers started offering food and drink.
D.People started talking to each other.
2.The woman from the writer’s school jumped into action to ______. （ ）
A.play the guitar and sing
B.help a sick boy on the train
C.go for a walk down the train
D.get off and take another train
3.The writer will never forget last Tuesday because ______. （ ）
A.strangers on the train were friendly to each other
B.a nurse saved a boy’s life on the train just in time
C.he learned something new about business people
D.it was a good opportunity to make new friends

Building her own app
While other teenagers hang out with friends or play sports after school, Brooke Yoakam goes to business meetings.
Yoakam first began developing a mobile app called Gift Pocket at the age of 12. Now 17, this girl from Ohio, US has finally launched the app.
It allows users to upload gift cards from various businesses and store them all in one place. User can also exchange gift cards. The app is free to download and use.
Yoakam says about 1,000 users have downloaded the app, with 87 percent of them signing up（注册）and 45 percent adding at least one gift card to the service.
Yoakam came up with the idea for the app after attending a leadership academy（领导学院）in sixth grade. She was asked to solve a problem. She realized that she always forgot her gift cards when she went shopping with friends. But since most people have mobile phones, it would be easy to store and use the gift cards from there.
After leaving the academy, Yoakam decided to develop an app that would solve this problem. She won a local business competition and received $2,000（13, 800 yuan） from a company to invest（投资）in her idea. She traveled around after school two or three times a week to work on the app. She even gave up some of her hobbies and activities.
The app has helped her realize her interests. So she hopes to major（主修）in business and technology in college.
