18.It's high time someone spoke up for today's college students.They're probably the most hardworking,ambitious people in America and their problems are not properly appreciated.
People like the Secretary of Education simply don't know what they're talking about when they knock students.Nor do those who complain about falling academic standards.
The vast majority of the nation's 12million students are struggling to pay for their educations.They are part of the invisible workforce.Many hold down full-time jobs.They're frying hamburgers,photographing weddings,working in construction,and waiting on tables.The fact that they even show up for classes is a wonderful event.
The financial situation of most students explains a lot about what is happening in schools.Why are the traditional courses so unpopular?Why are students flocking to accounting and computer science and any professional programs that seem to lead to careers?
Answer:Today's working student has been forced into a kind of premature matter-of-fact way of viewing things.Romance is gone.The notion of transforming one's self through study alone has disappeared.Today's students seek freedom from manual labor,and the status conferred by a good job.
There are other consequences.Today's students don't have much time or energy to be devoted,and carry out independent research or even do serious homework.That's the secret behind falling academic standards.Students have become consumers.They want grades and certifications.Their professors can't be expected to give a grade of failure to students who are clearly tired from the effort to pay their bills.
There's a lot wrong with this situation.It's twisting the definition of education out of shape.Worse,it's creating a generation that is totally unpleasant.The brightest students turn out to be yuppies (雅皮士).The vast majority are,at least,good-natured semi-literates.
The time has run out for philosophical debates about fixed courses of study.What this country needs is someone to stand up and say that being a full-time student during one's formative years is an honorable calling worthy of support.If families can't or won't give it to their children,then the government should.

3.Over the last 70years,researchers have been studying happy and unhappy people and finally found out ten factors that make a difference.Our feelings of well-being at any moment are determined to a certain degree by genes.However,of all the factors,wealth and age are the top two.
Money can buy a degree of happiness.But once you can afford to feed,clothe and house yourself,each extra dollar makes less and less difference.
Researchers find that,on average,wealthier people are happier.But the link between money and happiness is complex.In the past half-century,average income has sharply increased in developed countries,yet happiness levels have remained almost the same.Once your basic needs are met,money only seems to increase happiness if you have more than your friends,neighbors and colleagues.
"Dollars buy status,and status makes people feel better,"conclude some experts,which helps explain why people who can seek status in other ways-scientists or actors,for example-may happily accept relatively poorly-paid jobs.
In a research,Professor Alex Michalos found that the people whose desires-not just for money,but for friends,family,job,health-rose furthest beyond what they already had,tended to be less happy than those who felt a smaller gap.Indeed,the size of the gap predicted happiness about five times better than income alone."The gap measures just blow away the only measures of income."says Michalos.
Another factor that has to do with happiness is age.Old age may not be so bad"Given all the problems of aging,how could the elderly be more satisfied?"asks Professor Laura Carstensen.
In one survey,Carstensen interviewed 184people between the ages of 18and 94,and asked them to fill out an emotions questionnaire.She found that old people reported positive emotions just as often as young people but negative emotions much less often.
Why are old people happier?Some scientists suggest older people may expect life to be harder and learn to live with it,or they're more realistic about their goals,only setting ones that they know they can achieve.But Carstensen thinks that with time running out,older people have learned to focus on things that make them happy and let go of those that don't.
"People realize not only what they have,but also that what they have cannot last forever,"she says."A goodbye kiss to a husband or wife at the age of 85,for example,may bring far more complex emotional responses than a similar kiss to a boy or girl friend at the age of 20."
