Having one of those days—or weeks—when everything seems to annoy you? Even if you do nothing about it, your bad mood （心情）will probably go away after some time. But with a little effort, you can forget it much faster, often within a day or two.
Walk it off
Exercise is the most popular bad-mood buster. A person who’s in a bad mood has low energy and high tension. Taking a fast ten-minute walk, or taking some quick exercise can do wonders towards changing that bad mood.
Tune it out
Listening to your favorite music for a while can also make tensions go away quickly, because music starts associations with past positive experiences we’ve had.
Give yourself a pep talk
Stop and listen to what’s on your mind. Bad moods are often started by too many negative thoughts. Write them all down on paper, including the pessimistic（悲观的）messages you’ve been giving yourself and then give optimistic answers.（“I still don’t have a job.” Vs” I have two interviews next week.”）
Reduce your stress
Relaxation techniques are wonderful mood-lifters. There include de3ep breathing, stretching and visualizing, all of which sound complicated(复杂的)but aren’t. One easy way to visualize, close your eyes and picture a favorite place, such as the beach. Another simple way to unhappiness is to make a to-do list. One reason for being in a bad mood is feeling you have no options. By taking control over certain areas, you realize you’re not helpless. You can make changes in your mood and life.
Avoid things that won’t improve your mood
TV may not help much: you need to increase your energy level and stimulate（刺激）your mind-something that the TV show “Neighbors” won’t do. And before you reach for that piece of cake and coffee, think about how mood and food are linked. Sugar and caffeine contribute to depressed moods. The better choice? Research shows that carbohydrates, such as potatoes and pasta(面食), produce a calming effect on people who have a desire for them.
【小题1】Which of the following may help us stop a bad mood?

A．Draw a picture of something complicated．	B．Put more sugar into your coffee．
C．Writing down negative thoughts．	D．look ahead and write something positive．

【小题2】Why is it suggested that you close your eyes and picture the beach?

A．It helps raise your spirits．	B．It brings us a new technique．
C．It is not complicated to do so．	D．It is an area to be easily controlled．

【小题3】What can we infer from the passage?

A．You don’t have to be nice to your neighbors	B．you often feel powerful when in bad mood
C．Some TV shows won’t energize you	D．Slow exercise can gets you out of bad mood

【小题4】Which would be the best title for this passage?

A．How to Beat a Bad Mood	B．Energy Level and Stress

Definition of Happiness

A proverb from ancient China was widely spread in the West: “If you want to be happy for a few hours, go to get drunk; if you want the happiness to last three years, get married; if you want lifetime happiness, take up gardening.” The reason for the last is this: Gardening is not only useful, but it helps you to identify(与……一致) yourself with nature, and thus brings you new joy each day besides improving your health.

A research of a US university that I’ve read gives a definition of happiness as what makes a person feel comfortably pleased. To put it specially, happiness is an active state of mind where one thinks one’s life is meaningful, satisfactory and comfortable. This should be something lasting rather than transitory (短暂的).

Lots of people regard it the happiest to be at leisure (空闲). But according to a study, it is not a person with plenty of leisure but one at work that feels happy, especially those busy with work having little time for leisure. Happiness does not mean gains one is after but a desire to harvest what one is seeking for. People often do not treasure what they already have but desire what they cannot get. That is somewhat like a man with fond dreams of numerous lovers while unwilling to settle down with the woman beside him.

Happiness is a game balancing between two ends — what one has and what one wishes for, i.e. one’s dream and the possibility to realize it. The study comes to this conclusion: A happy man is one who aims high but never forget his actual situation; one who meets challenges that develop his ability and potentiality; one who’s proud of his achievements and the recognition given to him. He has self-respect and self-confidence; treasures his own identity and loves freedom. He is sociable and enjoys wide range communication with others; he’s helpful and ready to accept assistance. He knows he is able to bear sufferings and failures; he is sensible enough to get fun from daily work. He is a man capable of love and passion.

A. it is a business that brings money

B. it can strengthen gardeners’ ability to remake nature

C. it can make gardeners enjoy very happy marriage

2. It can be concluded from the research of the university that most people feel happy when _______.

A. they are at leisure

B. they are engaged in working

C. they are gardening

D. they have numerous lovers

3. The writer mentioned a man with fond dreams of numerous lovers in order to _______.

A. give an example of a person who doesn’t value what he already owns

B. show that this kind of person has plenty of leisure time to do what he wants

C. make it clear that only this kind of person can enjoy happiness

D. show the serious problem in marriage in modern society

4. From the passage we can know that happiness is _______.

A. getting everything one longs for

B. just dreams made by those confident people

C. taking up gardening

D. a balance between what one owns and what one dreams of
