Most of us lead a busy life. 1 We think, "If I reached my goal, then I would be happy", or "If I
could get a better job, then I would enjoy life." But why not enjoy life right now?
Firstly, take time to notice and appreciate the beauty in your own surroundings. 2 "There is a great
big world of wonder and beauty around us!" And as Brodersen explains, "Look for the beauty of the
sunrise and of a friend's smile that brightens your day. Open your eyes to see the beauty you might not
normally see. Doing so helps to cheer you up."
Secondly, taking time to experience some simple pleasures also can bring joy to your heart and ease
your stress. Take me for example. 3 One universal simple pleasure is finding things that make you laugh. Make time to laugh every day.
Thirdly, don't take your family and friends for granted. Rich, rewarding relationships add greatly to the
enjoyment of life. When you think of someone, why not call, e-mail or write them? 4 As Wayne Lawton explains, "Invest time in relationships. Remove the attitude, what's in it for me? Happiness is found in
putting other's interests, desires and concerns ahead of our own whenever possible. Selfishness is a
dead-end street." 5
A. I delight in simple things like my favorite tea drink, a bubble bath or family photos.
B. In my spare time, I enjoy collecting stamps and reading novels.
C. Driven by the "urgent", we forget to enjoy life.
D. So please treasure relationship.
E. You don't need to travel far to find beauty.
F. Be aware of beauty in nature.
G. A short e-mail or phone call can make a world of difference to someone.

Gift Giving 1.______ There are many occasions (场合) for giving gifts in modern industrialized societies: birthdays, naming ceremonies, weddings, anniversaries, New Year. It is common to give gifts on many of these celebrations in western cultures. In addition, special events, such as one's first day of school or graduation from university, often require gift giving. 2.______ What is happening when we give gifts? Most important, we are exchanging gifts. If someone gives me a gift for my birthday, I know that I am usually expected to give one on his or her next birthday. A gift builds up or confirms a social obligation (义务). 3.______ Gifts tighten personal relationships and provide a means of communication between loved ones. People say that a gift lets the recipient (接受者) know we are thinking of them, and that we want to make the person "feel special." We want people to feel wanted, to feel part of our social or family group. We give presents to say "I'm sorry." Sometimes it is difficult for us to find a present that someone will like. Sometimes we give things that we like or would feel comfortable with. In all these cases, the gifts are sending out messages-often very expressive ones. 4.______ People tend to talk about presents in a fairly loving way. A woman whose mother had died years ago described the many gifts around her house. These were gifts that her mother had given her over the years:"I appreciate these, and they mean something to me," the woman said, "because I remember the occasions they were given on, and that they were from my mother, and the relationship we've had." The gifts remain and keep the relationship alive in mind. This woman felt the same way about the gifts she gave to others. She hoped that the recipients would look at her gifts in years to come and remember her. 5.______ Emotions (情感) like these suggest that a positive spirit still lies behind gift giving. They prove that the anthropologist Claude Levi-Strauss was wrong to say that modern western gift giving is highly wasteful. Studies in Canada and elsewhere have also shown that this is not the case. Each gift is unique even if so many are given. The emotional benefit for those who exchange gifts is the very reason for the tradition to continue. |
