Ⅱ. 阅读短文,根据短文内容,完成表格

Most people want to be happy, but few people know how to find happiness. Money

and success do not bring lasting happiness. Aristotle, a Greek philosopher said,

“Happiness depends on ourselves.” In other words, we make our own happiness by

ourselves. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.

The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often,

we spend so much time thinking about the future, for example, getting into college

or getting a good job that we don't enjoy the present. You should enjoy life's simple

pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending

time with close friends. People who have close friends usually enjoy happier and

healthier lives.

Another secret of happiness is to be active and have hobbies. They can help you forget your problems and lose track of (记不清)time. Many people experience this

by dancing, or playing sports, such as snowboarding or soccer. You can forget about

your problems and only think about the activities.

Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. According to studies,

people feel good when they volunteer their time to help others. If you want to feel

happier, do something nice for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies,

go shopping to get food for an old neighbor, or simply help out around the house

by washing the dishes.
