One day, Miss Ellis gave her pupils a new kind of homework: homework on happiness. Her pupils would be “happiness1”, and were to see what would happen when they tried to bring happiness to those around them. As part of their homework, all the students did really2, wonderful things, but what Carla Chalmers did left everyone3. Several days after the homework had been handed out, Carla turned up carrying a big bag.
“Here in this bag I have all the happiness I’ve collected so far,” she said4. On seeing this, everyone was filled with5, but Carla didn’t want to show anyone what was in the bag. Instead, she pulled out a small box and gave it to her teacher. When Miss Ellis had taken the box, Carla took a(n)6camera out of her own pocket and stood with it at the ready.
“Open it, Miss Ellis.”
The teacher slowly opened the box and looked inside. A big smile7on her face, and at that moment Carla took a photo, Carla’s photo came out of the camera immediately, and she8
it to Miss Ellis along with a sheet of paper. The teacher read the paper in silence, and when she, had finished, she gestured at the9.
“Oh, so it’s…”
“Yes!”10Carla, opening the bag. “It’s a great big pile of smiles!”
She opened the bag and photos of different11fell out.
The rest of the class tried to12how Carla had managed to create such a great big chain of happiness. All there in the box was a photo of a big smile. But everyone who had seen it felt happiness being transmitted(传送)to them, and in return, without13, every person14with a smile of their own.
She managed to15understanding of the smile truth that every time you smile you are sending a gift to the world.

Growing up in the U.S.A., I always wanted to experience another culture. The1came when I was 15. After several months of2, I was ready to spend the second term of my first year of high school as an exchange student in Australia.
Landing in Perth was one of the most exciting moments of my life. I3then that there was no turning back. The family I would live with was waiting for me, and it would be only five days4the new school year started.
The Catholic school I5was different from my public school back in the States. The uniform code was very strict. We were only6to wear one bracelet, which had to be a watch and one necklace, which had to have a Holy Cross. I was quite intimidated(害怕的) at first,7never having been to a new school—even in the United States. Everything went8, though. The teachers were welcoming and the students were friendly.
The most unforgettable time of my term abroad was with forty-one other international exchange students traveling around Australia during our term break. Our9were as extensive as our nationalities: we traveled to Sydney, Canberra, Mildura, Coober Pedy, Uluru, Kings Canyon, Alice Springs, Mount Isa, Airlie Beach, and the Cold Coast.
The few weeks we enjoyed together were crowded with10. We took a day-cruise on Darling Harbor and visited the Sydney Opera House. We slept in an “underground town”. We walked around the famous Ayers Rock and went sailing on the Pacific Ocean.
At the end of our11in Australia, we had three weeks of traveling time to share our stories and help each other deal with leaving. It was12that our last day together was filled with tears. We packed our camp, exchanged e-mail addresses, and gathered together for a final good-bye.

Several years ago, a well- known writer and editor Norman Cousins became very ill. His body ached and he felt constantly tired. It was difficult for him to even1around. His doctors told him that he would lose the ability to move and eventually2from the disease. He was told he had only a 1 in 603of survival.
4the diagnosis( 诊断) , Cousins was determined to overcome the disease and survive. He had always been interested in5and had read a book, which discussed the idea of how body chemistry and health can be damaged by emotional stress and negative( 消极的)6. The book made Cousins think about the possible7 of positive attitudes and emotions. He thought, “Is it possible that love, hope, faith, laughter, confidence, and the will to live have positive treatment value?”
He decided to focused all his8on positive emotions as a way to treat some of the symptoms of his disease. In addition to his traditional medical treatment, he tried to put himself in situations that would bring about positive emotions. “Laugh therapy” became part of his treatment. He9time each day for watching comedy films, reading humorous books, and doing other activities that would draw out positive emotions. Within eight days of starting his “Laugh therapy” program his pain began to10and he was able to sleep more easily. He was able to return to work in a few months’ time and actually achieved complete recovery after a few years.

When a person walks, the movement of his head, trunk, hipbones and limbs are all reflected in changes in his body. A computer1these changes into a database. Later, the computers can2identify him according to these changes. This is a new biological identification method and it can quickly identify an examinee3disturbing him. It's especially suitable for use in airports and supermarkets.
Everybody's voice is4. When a person's voice is recorded by an instrument, its voice frequency spectrum is called his sound print. Like a fingerprint, everybody's sound print is different. How can computers5his sound? First, his voice is recorded, which allows the computers to become familiar with his voice. It will then turn his sound characteristics into a6of digits. These digits represent the frequency, pitch and rhythm of the person’s voice. These are the7on which the computers can distinguish1 his voice from8.
When that person needs to be identified, after he says only one word or two, the computers can identify him. The computers can even identify sounds coming9the wires. This will provide a10guarantee to electric banks and electric purchases.
We often bring ID cards2, work cards, or driver licenses with us to prove our identity. If all these cards are forgotten or lost, how can we prove11we are? In fact, it's not difficult to prove whom you are, because your body12has identifying markers. Some are physiological features, such as fingerprints, sounds, facial types and eye color. The computer can help to identify you. Suppose your features have already been stored in the database3. To identify you, we have to take your picture with a camera and send it to a computer for13. First, the computer needs to reposition this picture according to the position of your eyes4, and then starts to read themessage of your physiological features such as the14of your pupil5 to the whites of your eyes6 and the shape of his nose. Next, it seeks matching records from the database. Finally, it makes a15.

The trip to that city was eye-opening for everyone，and near its end，all the young people in our group began to reflect on what it had meant. We1the first night we had arrived. We had all gone into the markets of the city2the young people could experience its energy. But what we actually saw simply 3 us all—the rundown houses，the children in rags，the people begging for money...Walking home，4under a low bridge，we came across5families of homeless people seeking a bit of dry ground to sleep on6the night. We had to step over bodies as we found our way through the darkness.
The poverty(贫困) was7than anything my young companions had ever imagined. Back in the hotel，an air of sadness settled over the group. Many8 and cried. Spending time in this 9 moves a person to care about humanity.
That evening，our group spent hours talking about what we had10.Gently，I encouraged everyone to talk about the difficult11 that day’s discoveries had inspired. Sitting together 12 a circle as everyone had a chance to speak，we all began to realize that13 of us was alone in our struggle to cope with our reactions.
Based on my14in poverty-stricken areas，I suggested that15 the emotions we had were painful，they could also be important in helping us to move forward. We all16 that we had seen things that should never be allowed to happen.17，what could we do about it？Together，we began to brainstorm ways we could help to ease the 18 we had seen. As I encouraged group members to focus on19 they could do，a sense of determination20 the previous sadness. Instead of despair，these young people began to feel a call to action.
