5．Are you happy？Do you remember a time when you were happy？Are you seeking happiness today？Many have sought a variety of sources for their feelings of happiness．Some have put their hearts and efforts into their work．Too many have turned to drugs and alcohol．Meanwhile，untold numbers have looked for it in the possession of expensive cars，exotic（异国的） vacation homes and other popular"toys"．Most of their efforts have a root in one common fact：people are looking for a lasting source of happiness．
UnfortunatelyI believe that happiness escapes from many people because they misunderstand the journey of finding it．I have heard many people say that，"I'll be happy when I get my new promotion．"Or"I'll be happy when I lose that extra 20pounds．"It is dangerous because it accepts that happiness is a"response"to having，being or doing something．
In life，we all experience stimulus（激励） and response．Today，some people think that an expensive car is a stimulus，and happiness is a response； a great paying job is a stimulus，and happiness is a response； a loving relationship is a stimulus，and happiness is a response．This belief leaves us the thinking and feeling：I'll be happy when …
It has been my finding that actually the opposite is true．I believe that happiness is a stimulus and a response is what life brings to those who are truly happy．When we are happy，we tend to have more success in our work．When we are happy，people want to be around us and enjoy loving relationships．When we are happy，we more naturally take better care of our bodies and enjoy good health．Happiness is not a response but a stimulus．
Happiness is a conscious choice we make every day of our lives．For unknown reason to me，many choose to be painful，unsuccessful and angry most of the time．Happiness is not something that happens to us after we get something we want--we usually get things we want AFTER we choose to be happy．

分析 文章大意：本文讲的是在生活中，我们经常会有不快乐的时候．事实上，我们只有先快乐，才能得到我们自己想要的．
解答 25．C 细节理解题．根据文章第二段Some have put their hearts and efforts into their work．Too many have turned to drugs and alcohol．告诉我们：很多人喜欢投身于工作，许多人喜欢吸食毒品或者酗酒，因为他们觉得快乐，所以A、B两项错误；第二段中untold numbers have looked for it in the possession of expensive cars，exotic（异国的） vacation homes and other popular"toys"．还告诉我们：许许多多的人拥有了自己的昂贵的汽车后，他们就找到了快乐，所以C项正确．而D项与原文叙述不符，太绝对化．因此答案选C．
26．B 推理判断题． 根据文章第四段前两句话 In life，we all experience stimulus（激励） and response．Today，some people think that an expensive car is a stimulus，and happiness is a response可知，如今，人们都认为昂贵的轿车、高薪的工作都是一种刺激，而后才有了快乐，也就是说，他们得到了自己想要的东西，所以觉得快乐．A项说反了，C、D是B的具体表现形式．因此答案选B．
27．A 细节理解题．根据最后一段For unknown reason to me，many choose to be painful，unsuccessful and angry most of the time．Happiness is not something that happens to us after we get something we want--we usually get things we want AFTER we choose to be happy．可知如果你想得到你想要的，你首先要选择高兴，因此答案A项正确，B正好与作者的观点相悖，C、D两项文章没有讨论到，所以不正确．
28．B 推理判断题．依据作者在最后三段的阐述，可知幸福是无条件的，觉得幸福你就会拥有你所想要的，而且还会超出你的想象，所以B项正确
