6．Christie was one of my best friend at high school．At that time，we often spend time study together．Thank to her help，I made a great progress in my study．Last year，she decided to study abroad．In another words，we would be separated for long time．Before she left，I prepared a gift to show my best wishes to him．She said it was the best gift she has ever had．From then on，we've kept in touch with each other through e-mails．I look forward to see her again in the near future．

20．There was once a lonely girl who longed so much for love．One day while she was walking in the woods she found two starving birds．（71）E She cared about them with love and the birds grew strong．Every morning they greeted her with a wonderful song．The girl felt great love for the birds．
（72）F The larger and stronger of the two birds flew from the cage．The girl was so frightened that he would fly away．As he flew close，she grasped him wildly．Her heart felt glad at her success in capturing（捕捉） him．
（73）BShe opened her hand and stared in horror at the dead bird．It was her desperate love that had killed him．
She noticed the other bird moving back and forth on the edge of the cage．She could feel his great need for freedom．He needed to fly into the clear，blue sky．（74）GThe bird circled once，twice，three times．
The girl watched delightedly at the bird's enjoyment．（75） CWhat she wanted to see was that the bird could fly happily．Suddenly the bird flew closer and landed softly on her shoulder．It sang the sweetest tune that she had ever heard．
Remember，the fastest way to lose love is to hold on it too tightly； the best way to keep love is to give it wings!

A．She gave them some delicious food and left．
B．Suddenly she felt the bird go soft．
C．Her heart was no longer concerned with her loss．
D．One day she left with the two birds at home alone．
E．She took them home and put them in a small cage．
F．One day the girl left the door of the cage open accidentally．
G．She lifted him from the cage and threw him softly into the air．

19．When asked about happiness，we usually think of something extraordinary，an absolute delight，which seems to get rarer the older we get．
For kids，happiness has a magical quality．Their delight at winning a race or getting a new bike is unreserved （毫不掩饰的）．
In the teenage years the concept of happiness changes．Suddenly it's conditional（有条件的） on such things as excitement，love and popularity．I can still recall （回想） the excitement of being invited to dance with the most attractive boy at the school party．
In adulthood the things that bring deep joy-love，marriage，birth-also bring responsibility and the risk of loss．For adults，happiness is complicated （复杂的）．
My definition of happiness is"the capacity for enjoyment"．The more we can enjoy what we have，the happier we are．It's easy to overlook （忽视） the pleasure we get from the company of friends，the freedom to live where we please，and even good health．
I experienced my little moments of pleasure yesterday．First I was overjoyed when I shut the last lunch-box and had the house to myself．Then I spent an uninterrupted morning writing，which I love．When the kids and my husband came home，I enjoyed their noise after the quiet of the day．
Psychologists tell us that to be happy we need a mix of enjoyable leisure time and satisfying work．I don't think that my grandmother，who raised 14children，had much of either．She did have a network of close friends and family，and maybe this is what satisfied her．
We，however，with so many choices and such pressure to succeed in every area，have turned happiness into one more thing we've got to have．We're so self-conscious about our"right"to it that it's making us miserable．So we chase it and equal it with wealth and success，without noticing that the people who have those things aren't necessarily happier．
Happiness isn't about what happens to us-it's about how we see what happens to us．It's the skillful way of finding a positive for every negative．It's not wishing for what we don't have，but enjoying what we do possess．

18．In 1978，I was 18and was working as a nurse in a small town about 270km away from Sydney，Australia．I was looking forward to having five days off from duty．Unfortunately，the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left．So I thought I'd hitch a ride （搭便车）．
I waited by the side of the highway for three hours but no one stopped for me．Finally，a man walked over and introduced himself as Gordon．He said that although he couldn't give me a lift，I should come back to his house for lunch．He noticed me standing for hours in the November heat and thought I must be hungry．I was doubtful as a young girl but he assured （使…放心）me I was safe，and he also offered to help me find a lift home afterwards．When we arrived at his house，he made us sandwiches．After lunch，he helped me find a lift home．
Twenty-five years later，in 2003，while I was driving to a nearby town one day，I saw an elderly man standing in the glaring heat，trying to hitch a ride．I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the favor I'd been given decades earlier．I pulled over and picked him up．I made him comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water．
