We let ourselves believe that life will be better once we are married, have a baby, then another. Then we get frustrated because our children are not old enough and that all will be well when they are older. Then we are frustrated because they reach teenage years and we must deal with them. Surely we'll be happier when they grow out of the teen years.

We tell ourselves our life will be better when our spouse (配偶) gets his/her act together, when we have a nicer car, when we can take a vacation, when we finally retire. The truth is that there is no better time to be happy than right now. If not, then when? Your life will always be full of challenges. It is better to admit as much and to decide to be happy in spite of it all.

For the longest time, it seemed that life was about to start—real life.

But there were always some obstacles along the way, an ordeal (苦难) to get through, some work to be finished, some time to be given, a bill to be paid. Then life would start. I finally realized that those obstacles were part of life. Little by little, that point of view also helped me see that there isn't any road to happiness.

Happiness is the road. So, enjoy every moment. And keep in mind that __________. So stop waiting for school to end, for a return to school, to lose ten pounds, to gain ten pounds, for work to begin, to get married, for Friday evening, for Sunday morning, waiting for a new car, for your mortgage(借款) to be paid off, for spring, for summer, for fall, for winter, for the first or the fifteenth of the month, for your song to be played on the radio, to die, to be reborn… before deciding to be happy.

Happiness is a voyage, not a destination. There is no better time to be happy than… NOW! Live and enjoy the moment.

The most proper title for the passage should be______.

A. Happiness Is a Frustration      B. Happiness Is a Destination 

C. Happiness Is a Dream         D. Happiness is a Process

The first two paragraphs mainly tell us_______.

A. life is a worthwhile but challenging voyage       

B. so long as you believe you can, you can

C. people tend to think the future will be brighter than now 

D. people feel confused about their life

The writer thinks _______is a real happiness

A. setting our imagination free     B. enjoying our present life

C. finding our own shortcut to success  D. facing obstacles and challenges bravely

Which of the sayings can fill in the blank in the fourth paragraph?

A. time waits for no one      

B. time is money

C. tomorrow is another day  

D. time can work wonders

  It is men’s nature to live together in families and tribes(部落), and cities and nations, and therefore men have learned to prize those qualities in each other which make social life the happiest and best.

  Of these qualities one of the most important is sympathy-fellow-feeling.If a man had no fellow-feeling, we should call him “inhuman”; he would be no true man.We think so much of this quality that we call a kind man “human”-that is, man-like in his conduct, first to other men, and afterwards to all living things.

  If you are cruel to animals, you are not likely to be kind or thoughtfull to men; and if you are thoughtful towards men, you are not likely to be cruel and thoughtful towards animals.This is why the wise man of old wrote, “The merciful man is merciful to his beast.”

  What a pleasure it is also to be loved by our pets or domestic animals; and to feel that we are caring for them and are deserving of their love; or to watch the ways of wild creatures, and gradually to make friends with them!

  Treating animals kindly does not mean that we must never inflict any pain on them.We ourselves are trained by pains as well as by pleasures; so too, punishment is sometimes needed to train our dogs and horses to obey us.We endure pains at the hands of the surgeon, to cure some wound or to heal some disease; so too, animals must submit to being doctored.

  We send out our bravest men to face wounds, sickness and death, for the good of the nation; so too, we let our horses share the risk of battle.For similar reasons, we cannot hesitate to destroy dangerous creatures like wolves and show senseless ferocity(残忍).It is no excuse to say that these animals deserve to be treated cruelly on account of their own cruelty.They are not really cruel, for they tear and kill not from love of unkindness, but because they must do so in order to live.

(1)

One of the worst feelings you have as a professional athlete is the feeling after losing a game to a team that you should have beaten. That happened last night against the lowly Boston Celtics (波士顿凯尔特人队). They had only won 13 games the whole year and were really struggling. We had just come off a very good win against the Orlando Magic on the road and were feeling good about ourselves.

The day did not start out good for us when we learned that T-Mac was going to miss the game with the flu. When you lose your best players (Yao, T-Mac), everyone must play a little harder and do a little bit more on the floor. We put Bonzi Wells into the lineup (he was the only one to have a good game for us), in place of T-Mac.

It was a nasty game. We are usually one of the best three point shooting teams in the NBA and we only made 1 of 22 three point shots! I have never seen that happen. Never! Rarer Alston, Luther Head, and I combined to shoot 5 of 33 from the field. Ouch! You aren’t going to win too many games like that. Even as poorly as we shot the ball, we still had a chance to win the game in the fourth quarter but failed to make the winning plays that you must make to leave the floor victorious.

In the locker-room after the game, everybody felt terrible. When we play a bad game, we feel that we let our teammates down. There is a bad feeling in the pit of your stomach when you leave the gym and you just want to go home and not talk to anyone. It is a terrible feeling, but it is a feeling that makes you want to try harder and do better the next time.

I’ll talk to you guys later,

Shane
