In our daily life, everyone wants to be happy. Then, do you know how to be happy? Here are four ways for you to find more pleasure in your life.
Play that song you love so much. As a preschooler can tell you, 1. . When you experience something more than once, you notice more details about it each time, and it increases your enjoyment. That’s why you love revisiting that jazz club, favorite restaurant, and beloved old Woody Allen movie. Of course, you can overdo it.
Don’t buy boxed sets of DVDs. EconomistTyler says that much of the joy we get from our buying lies in the experience of finding them out, getting them home, and opening them up. 2. . Buy things one at a time and space out the pleasure.
3. . People long ago spent almost all of their time outside with trees, water, and sky around. The world in which most of us spend our time nowadays is unnatural and can harm the spirit. Even being close to nature for a short time can make us happy. In addition, physical contact with animals works wonders. 4. . It increases the brain chemicals connected with pleasure and decreases those connected with stress. Even people without pets can get some of the effect by hanging out for a few minutes at a dog shelter.
Wear a smile on your face. Like it or not, smiling improves your mood. That’s why people react better to you when you look happy, which in turn leads you to be happy. 5. .
A. Look outside
B. Love pets
C. You can pet an animal
D. playing songs can benefit you
E. repetition can lead to pleasure
F. If you receive 18 DVDs in one package, you’ll use up the excitement all at once
G. What’s more, looking happy fools your brain into thinking that you are happy

My 17-year-old daughter went off to college and having her away from home brought back memories of watching Peter Pan when she was little. In the classic TV production, one scene in particular impressed me: when Mrs. Darling puts her children into bed. As she turns off the last of the night light, she takes one last look at the bedroom and says, “Dear night lights, protect my sleeping children.” As a mother, I know how much she loves her children.
It has been several weeks since we took our daughter to college and she seems to be adjusting well after a short period of homesickness. For us, though, it’s another story. Like most parents, I love checking in on my children at night. But now she’s gone, and I find night times the hardest. I miss her most at night.
In my neighborhood, most of the parents whose kids are off to college are dealing with similar melancholy. My husband is filled with anxiety. One friend talked about getting this sick feeling in her stomach as she prepared for the college drop-off. We complained that many of us were too busy to truly enjoy being with our children while we had them.
For us moms, seeing Toy Story 3 only made the sadness worse as we watched the character Andy, who is the same age as our kids, say goodbye to his childhood as he prepares to leave for college. And it’s not just “first-time” parents like me. Two moms who have kids already well into college said the separation didn’t get any easier. “You feel like something has been taken away from inside you” said one of them.
I imagine things will get easier with time, especially as I see my daughter adjust to college life. Meanwhile, as I keep my cell phone close to me in bed and text my daughter goodnight and sweet dreams every night, I like to think that messages serve as a night light that keeps her safe.
1.The writer was deeply impressed by the scene in Peter Pan because ________.
A. the scene showed a mother’s deep love for her children
B. the scene was very exciting and interesting
C. the scene taught her and her daughter a good lesson
D. she watched the scene with her daughter
2.After her daughter went to college, the writer ________.
A. realized she hadn’t done enough for her daughter
B. often cried as she missed her daughter so much
C. didn’t get used to the change for a long time
D. failed to have a good sleep every night
3.What is the underlined word “melancholy” in Paragraph 3 similar in meaning to?
A. Happiness. B. Anger.
C. Excitement. D. Sadness.
4.According to the last paragraph, why did the writer keep her cell phone close to her in bed?
A. To call her daughter any time.
B. To wait for her daughter’s calls.
C. To wait for her daughter’s messages.
D. To say good night to her daughter.

Are you an optimist? Do you look at your glass and see it as half full? Do you believe that every cloud has a silver lining and that generally things turn out for the best? Do you believe that if something is meant to be, it will be? If you reply “yes” to all of these questions, then you are an optimist. You probably are enthusiastic, cheerful and outgoing. You may well be successful at work and in love.
But you may be misguided because things don’t turn out for the best. You may believe that when one door closes another one opens (for example, you may fail to obtain a new job, and another chance will come around soon). Wrong. When one door closes, another door slams in your face. That’s bitter reality.
Now a book has been published which confirms what we pessimists (悲观者) have suspected all along. It’s called The Positive Power of Defensive Pessimism. Its author argues that defensive pessimism can lead to positive results. Defensive pessimism is a strategy used to manage fear, anxiety and worry. Defensive pessimists prepare for things by setting low outcomes for themselves. They carefully consider everything that may go wrong and plan for ways to handle these problems. And this gives them a sense of control. Lawrence Sanno, a psychology professor, says, “What’s interesting about defensive pessimists is that they tend to be very successful people, so their low opinion of the situation’s outcomes is not realistic. They use it to motivate themselves to perform better. ”
So far, so good. This is not rocket science. Defensive pessimists prepare carefully and consider what might go wrong, whether at work, on a date or even in a sports game. It makes sense to have a back-up plan. There are many sayings in English urging caution. For example, “Don’t put all your eggs in one basket,” and “Don’t count your chickens until they hatch.” To have a confident and optimistic approach to life’s problems is good. But listen to what Woody Allen, the American comedian says, “Confidence is what you have before you understand the problem.”
There are pros and cons of being an optimist and a pessimist. Don’t feel bad if you see the glass half empty. You are a realist. But lighten up and hook up with someone who sees the same glass half full.
1. The writer would probably describe himself as ________.
A. a realist B. a scientist
C. an optimist D. an artist
2.Defensive pessimists are likely to make use of ________ to help achieve success.
A. the final outcome B. their low opinion
C. people’s motivation D. their performance
3.The underlined sentence “This is not rocket science” in Paragraph 4 means “________”.
A. it is out of the question
B. it is quite simple to understand
C. it is far beyond reach
D. it is not a worthwhile thing to do
4. Which of the following English expressions would a defensive pessimist probably believe?
A. “Every cloud has a silver lining.”
B. “Whatever will be, will be.”
C. “Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.”
D. “The glass is half full not half empty.”
