  Happiness is for everyone.You don't need to care about those people who has beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on.Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those have cars may want to walk on the country roads at their free time.

  In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it.When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you; when you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health; when you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you; when you do something wrong, people around you will help you correct it.And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too.All these are your happiness.If you notice a bit of them, you can see that happiness is always around you.

  Happiness is not the same as money.It is a feeling of your heart.When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy, because you have something else that can't be bought with money.When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge yourself.So you cannot always say you are poor and you have bad luck.As the saying goes, life is like a revolving(旋转的)door.When it closes, it also opens.If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person.

Some teenagers think that newspapers are boring and only for adults. But that’s not true. There are many interesting stories in the paper. You just need to make clear what you are looking at. “I spend about half an hour reading newspapers every day,” said 15-year-old Gao Ming from Beijing. “I’m interested in things happening at school. ” School news is just one kind of news story in newspapers. There’s also world news: from international problems to pop stars.

Read the newspaper carefully, we’ll find different types of articles on the pages:

News stories — these stories are about events. Reporters try to show all points of a story to help readers understand what happened. Reporters try to speak to as many people as possible. They also use pictures and numbers to show the readers that the stories are true. The newspaper Teenagers has lots of news stories on the news page and front page. When we read them, we learn more about the facts, not the writers’ ideas.

Opinion writing — opinion writing is usually about something happening right now. But it isn’t just facts. Here writers add their own opinions to the news. Writers pick only the facts that help back up their ideas. They make readers believe that they are telling the truth. This is usually the kind of story that gets people thinking. Go to “Speak Out” on Page Two for an example of opinion writing in Teenagers.
