  Will you be happy if you have a new Nike T-shirt on? Probably you will．But what if you see a friend  36  a more fashionable（时髦的）and more beautiful one? You may not feel as satisfied

37  you expect to and the feeling of happiness may disappear in a minute．

    Why are we not so happy we should be? the secret is：we focus（专注）on what we want

instead of what we have．We keep making Our list of desires（愿望）longer and longer．As a result，

we are not pleased with what we have  38 owned．We say to ourselves,“I’11 be happy when this

desire is satisfied．”However, another desire appears when this one is met．So。we still don’t feel  happy though we have got what we want．Happiness  39  when we always have new desires

hard to satisfy．

    Luckily．there is a way to be happy．Think more about what we have than what we want．Rather than wish you were 40 to have an enjoyable vacation on the beach．think of  41  fun you have had nelil home．Similarly，instead of hating to do much homework，42 teachers for

making you have the chance to practice mole．The list of what you have can also be endless．Each

time you find yourself falling into “I wish life was different” trap（陷阱），take a deep breath and think of 43  you have every" had．

  Pay anole's attention to what you have，and you’11 probably get mole of what you want． 44

example，your good attitude toward doing homework can bring exeunt grades in exanlt8 because 45  makes perfect．

    Start to focus on what we have! The more we feel satisfied．the more happily we’ll live．

    Scientists think that a weather pattern（形式）called E1 Nin6（厄尔尼诺现象）caused the

drought（干旱）in Australia．E1 Nin6 causes different weather in different parts of the world．It

causes a lot of rain and floods in some places．It causes droughts in other places．Droughts can badly affect people and the land．E1 Nin6 lasts about a year．

  In normal weather conditions．warm winds from South America blow from east to west across

the Pacific Ocean．The winds early storms to Australia．These storms bring rain to Australia．

    During an E1 Nin6 weather pattern．the winds change direction．They blow from west to east

across the Pacific Ocean．The storms no longer move across Australia．So Australia gets very little  rain during E1 Nino．
