阅读理解

　　For a long time being happy was considered something that just happened, and there was nothing special to do about it. Now we know that getting along with ourselves and with other people is something that we could work at. It is possible to act in such a way that other people would like us better. One way is being unselfish, not wanting everything our own way or demanding the best share of everything, including the attention of our friends. Another way is to look for good points, not bed ones in other people; it is surprising how successful this treasure hunt will be.

　　You don't have to be spineless(懦弱) in order to be popular. In fact, you will be liked and respected if you are not afraid to stand up for your rights. But do it politely and pleasantly. Being friendly and polite to your own group, to older people, to strangers and especially to those who do not look important or do not interest you is one way to develop a good character.

　　You cannot expect to be perfect, and so you must learn rat to be too unhappy when you make a mistake. Everyone makes mistakes, and no one is to be blamed unless she refuses to learn from them. Many young people become discouraged when they recognize in themselves qualities that they do not like— selfishness, laziness and other unpleasant qualities. Just remember that we all have some of these faults and have to fight against them.

　　At the same time, it is important to remember that, while you are probably no worse than others, chances are you are rat much better, either. The surest way to be happy is to think yourself above other people.

　　When something is wrong, it is good sense to try to make it right. Perhaps you don't like a teacher or a classmate. Try to see why, and look at yourself, too, to be sure that you are not doing something to make the person dislike you. In time, things may turn out all right, then you will simply have to learn to get along the best you can with the situation, without thinking too much about it. Worrying never helps in a situation you can't change.
