9．Meaning of Happiness
"Are you happy？"I asked my brother，Lan，one day，
"Yes．No．It depends what you mean，"he said．
"Then tell me，"I said，"when was the last time you think you were happy？"
"April 1967，"he said，
It served me right for putting a serious question to someone who has joked his way through life．But Lan's answer reminded me that when we think about happiness，we usually think of something extraordinary，a pinnacle（顶点） of sheer （纯粹的） delight，（71）D
（72）A I remember playing police and robbers in the woods，getting a speaking part in the school play．Of course，kids also experience lows，but their delight at such peaks of pleasure as winning a race or getting a new bike is unreserved．
In the teenage years，the concept of happiness changes．（73）GI can still feel the pain of not being invited to a party that almost everyone else was going to．I also remember the great happiness of being invited at another event to dance with a very handsome young man．
In adulthood the things that bring great joy-birth，love，marriage-also bring responsibility and the risk of loss．Love may not last； loved ones die．For adults，happiness is complex．
My dictionary defines"happy"as"lucky"or"fortunate"．But I think a better definition of happiness is"the ability to enjoy something"．（74）E It's easy to overlook the pleasure we get from loving and being loved，the company of friends，the freedom to live where we please，even good health．
While happiness may be more complex for us，the solution is the same as ever．Happiness isn't about what happens to us； it's the ability to find a positive for every negative，and view a difficulty as a challenge．（75）F

A．For a child，happiness has a magic quality．
B．You never know where happiness will turn up next．
C．So we chase it and make it equal to wealth and success．
D．And those pinnacles seem to get rarer，the older we get．
E．The more we can enjoy what we have，the happier we are．
F．It's not wishing for what we don't have，but enjoying what we do possess．
G．Suddenly it's conditional on such things as excitement，love，and popularity．

16．I couldn't find my watch for ages，but then one day it in a coat pocket．（　　）

13．About dancing bears
Young bears are captured in the wild，separated from their mothers，and taught by a trainer to become dancing bears in conditions of unimaginable cruelty．
The young animals are forced on to sheets of really hot metal and，（25）to escape （escape） the pain，the bears alternate lifting up one paw （爪子） and then another while music is played．The process is repeated again and again （26）until/before the animals automatically begin to raise their paws-to"dance"-in fear of the pain，even when there are no metal sheets．
As the bears get older，the trainers keep them under control by imposing pain．They do this by putting rings through the bears'highly sensitive noses and jaws．The pitiful truth is （27）that they are not put to sleep for this painful process．Chains （28）are attached （attach） to the rings so the trainers can control the animals，（29）which weigh up to 350kilograms，with only a slight pull on the chains．
The bears'nails are cut several times a year and their teeth broken or removed in order that they cannot get their trainers （30）injured （injure）．The bears also suffer with an inadequate diet usually （31）consisting （consist） of white bread，sugar and cheap fruit juices．All these cause the bears serious physical health problems （32）so that many of them display strange behavior such as swaying （摇摆） and pacing as they cannot follow natural behavioral patterns and instincts．

17．Six Sigma is a process that helps companies focus on developing and delivering near-perfect products and services．The word"sigma"is a statistical term that measures how far a given process falls short of perfection．The central idea behind Six Sigma is that if a company can measure how many"defects"they have in a commercial production process，they can systematically figure out how to get rid of the problems and get as close to"zero defects"as possible．
Training and teamwork are fundamental elements of the Six Sigma methodology．In other words，companies need to have their team leaders and team members trained to carry out the Six Sigma processes．They must learn to use the measurement and improvement tools．They also need to learn communication skills necessary for them to involve customers and suppliers and to serve their needs．
Six Sigma was developed in 1986by Motorola，an American telecommunications company．Engineers in Motorola used it as an informal name for a plan to reduce faults in production processes．A few years later，Motorola extended the name"Six Sigma"to mean a general performance improvement method，beyond purely"defect reduction"in the production process．In 1995，Jack Welch，CEO of General Electrics（GE），decided to adopt Six Sigma in GE；and by 1998GE claimed that Six Sigma had brought about over three-quarters of a billion dollars of cost savings．
By 2000，Six Sigma was effectively established as an industry in its own right，involving the training，consultancy and practicing of Six Sigma methodology in all sorts of organizations around the world．Organizations as diverse as local governments，prisons，hospitals，the armed forces banks，and multi-national corporations have been adopting Six Sigma for quality and process improvement．
