Be Happy

Lioyd Morris

　　“The days that make us happy make us wise．”－John Masefield．

　　When I first read this line by England’s Poet Laureate(桂冠诗人), I was amazed．What did Masefield mean? Without thinking about it much, I had always assumed that the opposite was true．But his calm assurance(自信)was remarkable．I could not forget it．

　　Finally, I seemed to grasp his meaning and realized that here was a profound(意义深远的)observation．The wisdom that happiness makes possible lies in clear understanding, not fogged by anxiety nor dimmed(变暗淡)by despair and boredom, and without the blind spots caused by fear．

　　Active happiness–not more satisfaction or contentment-often comes suddenly, like an April shower or the unfolding of a bud(蓓蕾)．Then you discover what kind of wisdom has accompanied it．The grass is greener; bird songs are sweeter; the shortcomings of your friends are more understandable and more forgivable．Happiness is like a pair of eyeglasses correcting your spiritual vision．

　　The insight of happiness are not limited to what is near around you．Unhappy, with your thoughts turned in upon your emotional sadness, your vision is cut short as though by a wall．Happy, the wall crumbles(倒塌)．

　　The long vista(展望)is there for the seeing．The ground at your feet, the world about you-people, thoughts, emotions, pressures-are now fitted into the larger scene．Everything assumes a fairer proportion(比例、关系)．

　　And here is the beginning of wisdom．

(1)

[　　]
A．	Because he didn’t expect such a poet would have written such a line
B．	Because he had never thought about that before
C．	Because he thought it was impossible to be both happy and wise
D．	Because he thought it rubbish for Masefield to write something like that

(2)

what makes being both happy and happy possible?
[　　]
A．	Significance
B．	comprehension
C．	Cooperation
D．	Responsibility

(3)

According to the writer, when does active happiness happen?
[　　]
A．	happiness occurs when t rains in April spring
B．	active happiness happens when a bud unfolds
C．	it occurs when your understanding of everything is better
D．	it happens out of our expectation

(4)

What is the beginning of wisdom?
[　　]
A．	taking a long view of things
B．	looking at things from different angles
C．	considering advantages and disadvantages
D．	sweeping down irresistibly from a commanding height
