I can’t think of a better way of appreciating a new culture than by taking part in one of its festivals. You’ll find that some festivals are celebrated by an entire country, while others may be known only to a single city or region, but either way festivals play an important role in a certain culture. Just enjoy them!

★ Tomatina — Bunol, Spain

Every last Wednesday in August, the town of Bunol is filled with tons of tomatoes in the world’s biggest food flight. Many people wear goggles (护目镜) during this hour of great fun, as the town becomes a red river.

★ Boryeong Mud Festival — Boryeong, South Korea

For two weeks in July, millions gather in Boryeong to experience the grey pools and slides. What began as a way to help sell the region’s mineral-rich mud has turned into a festive party with music and fireworks. The mud is usually only available in cosmetic products (化妆品), but here you can cake yourself in grey as you want.

★ Holi — India

Holi, the Festival of Colors, is a Hindu celebration full of joy and one of India’s most important holidays. During the day of the last full moon of the lunar month, usually late February or early March, the air is full of brightly colored powder (粉末). The festival is celebrated differently throughout the country, with bonfires and music, but the cheerful spirit is common among Hindu people around the world.

★ International Pillow Fight Day — Worldwide

Tens of thousands of people took part in the 4th annual International Pillow Fight Day on April 2, 2013. From London to Vancouver to many other cities, the festival is held in more than 100 countries. So just bring a soft pillow in early April, and watch feathers fly.

Some Helpful Tips for a Happier You

I've been one of sad people before. It wasn't easy. But fortunately, I was able to get out of it in one piece. I want you to experience that too. Here are some simple tips that I found very effective and useful in finding my own kind of happiness. 1.

·Exercise whenever you get the chance

2. It's more likely that you won't feel happy if you're having breathing problems when you're climbing the stairs, right? Bum those fats away and live a healthier and much happier life! Your happiness is not going to be served on a silver platte(毫不费力地). You've got to work for it and, give it your all.

·Embrace the “real" you

I love the LEGO Movie because it emphasizes the importance of being happy with who you truly are. This is a very important thing to remember when you're in pursuit of happiness. 3. You don't need to be the same with another person just to feel good. You can be happy just by being you.

· Avoid expecting anything from anyone

As pessimistic as this claim might sound, learned that there are some people out there who just won't give you a hand when you really need them to. 4.

If a friend or a loved one is constantly disappointing you then stop hoping for them to get their act together. Instead, do the work and feel satisfied with what you've accomplished.

·5..

Stay too long and the four corners of your room will only tum you into a gloomy version of yourself. Go outside and feel the sun. Indeed, the Internet is a wonderland filled with useful information, crazy people and your everyday drama but there's more to life than sitting in front of your computer screen.

A. One of the funny things about us people is that we complicate our own lives.

B. Hopefully, you'll be able to put them to good use.

C. Your physique (体格) has a lot of effects on your mind.

D. Put effort into the things you can control

E. Spend less time on the Internet

F. Remind yourself that you are your own man/woman.

G. Thus, I developed this “do more and expect nothing" mentality.

1.I don’t like such kind of ______________ (幽默).

2.He was ill and ______________ (因此) could not come.
