Ways to Find the Happiness in Front of You

__2. And it doesn't care how much money you have or what the circumstances of your life are. Look through the suggestions on how to look on the bright side and find the happiness in front of you.

_3.__

If I'm feeling low, one of the best ways I know to cheer up is to make a love list. It's simple, just a list of every single person I love. Then I can put it in a pocket to take with me on a tough day, or just keep it in mind as I get on with my life.

Find Lost Friends

I recently took some time to seek out people that I've lost touch with over the years. __4.__. Within 24 hours I had baby pictures and recent histories. But the interesting thing was that all the people I got in touch with had been thinking about contacting me a couple of days before getting my email.

Think Positively

___5.___I'm not saying your problems are over, but simply looking at the world through rose-colored glasses means that half your problems will look like exciting challenges, and the other half you'll probably realize aren't problems at all, just facts of life.

A. Create a love list

B. But happiness is all around you.

C. Wish upon a star

D. I wonder whether they still remember me.

I once had a friend that was diagnosed with terminal cancer,and the news that he might only live up to six months was a great shock to him,his family,and his friends.However,in spite of the serious illness,he was initially determined to look into all available treatments that might cure or extend his life.I think that when you find yourself in such situations,you tend to look up every possible way for hope of saving your life.

As months went on and his health grew worse,I noticed an unexpected change in attitude that came over him.He had also been a happy person with a cheerful personality,but rather than give in to discouragement and self-pity,he took comfort in God and humanity.His talks focused on others rather than himself,and he spoke of the afterlife as something he was prepared for,believing that his concerned ancestors,including his mother and father,were there waiting for him.

During the last few months,weeks,and days of his life,he was kindly cared for by friends,his loving wife,who looked after both his physical and emotional needs,and workers from a local hospice(安养院) came to the home to regulate his medication and provide any other needed support.He didn’t complain about his fate,and he willingly allowed others to serve him.

Indeed,one might think why God allows death and suffering in our world,but for me,such experiences taught me to value family more and kindness for others.You can’t often learn these important attributes in the lap of luxury,and perhaps,such an experience is the greatest and final gift the illness can give those left behind.

1.What did the man do after he first learned of his illness?

A.He was operated on immediately.

B.He retired from his job.

C.He researched cancer treatments.

D.He felt sad,doing nothing.

2.What was the man’s main source of comfort after several months with the disease?

A.His family and friends.

B.His belief in humanity.

C.His doctors’ encouragement.

D.The care from others.

3.What did the author learn from his friend’s story?

A.Giving more respect to friends.

B.Extending life as long as possible.

C.Caring for yourself and enjoying luxury.

D.Getting comfort from God.

4.What does the author mainly want to tell?

A.All people will face death,and thus,we must prepare for it spiritually.

B.Our characters can be strengthened by such an unpleasant situation.

C.Families provide the best support system during such a crisis.

D.People should help those who have got serious illness.

Here are some tips that will help you get rid of anxiety over being phoneless or reduce your risk of phone addiction.

Disable the Internet connection. Take up your courage to disable the Internet connection on your smartphone. 1. Needless to say, you will save o lot of cash on it.

Find your passion. 2. Find your dream job and you will leave your “best friend” at least for a while. If you have nothing to do at home, try a new hobby that will distract you from all those apps and social media.

Purchase an ordinary phone. No smartphones. No iphones. Remember those times when we used phones in emergency situations only or when we wanted to invite someone to a party. 3.

Don’t let the fear control you. 4. Claim your joy. I can only speak for myself here, but I think that a smartphone is one of the worst inventions. It’s useful and helpful at times, but it has ruined many happy lives and relationships. That’s because we allow our phones to control us.

5. The fear of being phoneless is a serious problem. It’s like drug or cigarette addiction. If you want to change your life, sell your expensive smartphone, buy an ordinary one, and become a sociable person. There are so many wonderful people that can bring joy into our life. Chatting online is great, but chatting in real life is best.

A. Free your mind.

B. Choose other electronic devices.

C. Keep your mind sharp and alert.

D. Beat your social butterfly wings.

E. Those who love their jobs never feel exhausted and bored.

F. Thus, you’ll spend less time with your phone and more time in real life.

G. I bet some of you remember times when few people had a phone at home.

In 1800, only three percent of the world's population lived in cities. Only one city — Beijing — had a population of over a million. Most people lived in rural areas, and never saw a city in their lives. In 1900, just a hundred years later, roughly 150 million people lived in cities, and the world’s ten largest cities all had populations exceeding one million. By 2000, the number of city dwellers exceeded three billion; and in 2008, the world's population crossed a tipping point — more than half of the people on Earth lived in cities. By 2050, that could increase to over two-thirds. Clearly, humans have become an urban species.

In the 19th and early 20th centuries, many people viewed cities negatively — crowded, dirty environments full of disease and crime. They feared that as cities got bigger, living conditions would worsen. In recent decades, however, attitudes have changed. Many experts now think urbanization (城市化) is good news, offering solutions to the problems of Earth’s growing population.

Harvard economist Edward Glaeser, author of The Victory of the Cir, is one such person. Glaeser argues that cities are very productive because “the absence of space between people” reduces the cost of transporting goods, people, and ideas. While the flow of goods has always been important to cities, what is most important today is the flow of ideas. Successful cities enable people to learn from each other easily, and attract and reward smart people with higher wages.

Another urbanization supporter is environmentalist Stewart Brand. Brand believes cities help the environment because they allow haft of the world’s population to live on about four percent of the land. This leaves more space for open country, such as farmland. City dwellers also have less impact per person on the environment than people in the countryside. Their roads, sewers, and power lines need fewer resources to build and operate. City apartments require less energy to heat, cool, and light. Most importantly, people in cities drive less so they produce fewer greenhouse gases per person.

So it’s a mistake to see urbanization as evil; it’s a natural part of development. The challenge is how to manage the growth.

1.What is Paragraph 1 mainly about?

A. The history of modern cities.

B. Changes taking place within cities.

C. How cities have grown over time.

D. Why modern cities are changing.

2. How have experts’ attitudes towards cities changed in recent decades?

A. They now view the weaknesses as strengths.

B. They no longer see city-riving as attractive.

C. They accept city life in spite of its problems.

D. They think city-riving provides more benefits.

3. Which of the following would Edward Glaeser agree with?

A. Cities provide more economic opportunities.

B. City people get along better with each other.

C. Over-crowded cities result in problems.

D. Cities limit the flow of ideas.

4.According to Paragraph 4, what would be the result of moving people out of cities?

A. Economic production would be reduced.

B. There would be less farmland available.

C. People would travel less frequently.

D. House values would fall greatly.
