　　Talking to Teachers－Teachers are just people．Behind that desk, is a living, breathing human being．And just like any human being, they will probably be friendly to people who talk nicely to them．Teachers also seem to get along better with children who take schoolwork seriously and are prepared for class．And, just like any other human being, teachers like to be appreciated．The next time your teacher helps you solve a math problem or figure out a science project, say thank you with a smile．

　　Talking to Parents－Parents can be very supportive if their children ask for help．If you think there’s something your parents can do to help you socialize more or feel more comfortable around people, then ask them．Very often, parents want very much to help, but really don’t know what to do．Pick a quiet time of the day and ask to talk．Tell them how you feel．Maybe they had the same trouble when they were kids．

　　This Stranger Thing－This is always a tough one．How do you deal with a neighbor, the mail carrier, or someone walking down your street－situations that often seem to cause arguments between kids and parents．The answer to these questions will vary from kid to kid, from parent to parent because all cultures are different．Some folks live in small towns where a hello to everyone is “what’s done”．Then there are kids who live in the city who may have been taught not to speak to anyone they don’t know．If you’re having trouble with this and always feel awkward in these kinds of situations, you might want to talk to your parents or a teacher about it．Where do they think you should draw the line? When is silence rude and when is it wise?

　　In our life, we have rarely expressed our gratitude to the one who’d lived those years with us．In fact, we don’t have to wait for anniversaries to thank the ones close to us－the ones so easily overlooked．If I have learned anything about giving thanks, it is this：give it now！While your feeling of appreciation is alive and sincere, act on it．Saying thanks is such an easy way to add to the world’s happiness．

　　Saying thanks not only brightens someone else’s world, but it also brightens yours．If you’re feeling left out, unloved or unappreciated, try reaching out to others．It may be just the medicine you need．

　　Of course, there are times when you can’t express gratitude immediately．In that case don’t let embarrassment sink you into silence－speak up the first time you have the chance．

　　Once a young minister, Mark Brian, was sent to a remote parish of Kwakiutl Indians in British Columbia．He had been told that the Indians did not have a word for thank you．But Brian soon found that these people had exceptional generosity．Instead of saying thanks, it is their custom to return every favor with a favor of their own, and every kindness with an equal or superior kindness．They do their thanks．

　　I wonder if we had no words in our vocabulary for thank you, would we do a better job of communicating our gratitude? Would we be more responsive, more sensitive and more caring?

　　Thankfulness sets in motion a chain of reaction that transforms people all around us－including ourselves, for no one ever misunderstands the melody of a grateful heart．

(1)

In the first paragraph the writer mainly encourages us _________．
[　　]
A．	to express our sincere thanks timely to those around us
B．	never to overlook our close friends in daily life

(2)

When we say something for what others do for us, it __________．
[　　]
A．	is good for both us and people who help us
B．	benefits the people who do something for us
C．	wastes our and our friends' time at the same time
D．	does harm to both us and people who help us

(3)

According to the writer, ________ could be the best way to prevent ourselves from being left out．
[　　]
A．	seeing a doctor to find the right medicine we need
B．	expressing our gratitude in an easy way
C．	speaking up the moment we have the chance

　　You just think you know what will make you happy．Researchers in the new science of happiness know better．They have evidence that married people on average end up being no happier than they were before the wedding．Winning the lottery will probably reduce your pleasure in ordinary events that used to make you happy．And being in good health isn't as much of a factor as the right genes when it comes to satisfaction．

　　A couple of years ago, Seligman and Diener studied 222 Illinois college students to find out what the happiest 10％ had in common．It turned out they were extroverts(性格外向), had more friendships and romantic relationships, but didn't exercise more and didn't feel they had more good events in their lives than those who weren't as happy．

　　Some of the results come as a surprise．A classic study of lottery winners and people with spinal cord(脊髓)injuries, for instance, found that neither event changed their lives as much as observers thought they would．

　　Gilbert is looking into how accurately people predict what will make them happy．It turns out, not accurately at all, what we think will bring us pleasure---a new car, the home teaming winning the NCAA championship, a move to California-usually doesn't bring us as much as we expected, and the positive impact doesn't last as long．The good news is that we also overestimate the impact of catastrophic events．

　　Even with data from research pouring in, scientists still don't have an easy answer to what we all want to know：How do I get long-term life satisfaction? The answers they do have are often the same ones that philosophers and priests have been giving us for centuries．It's just nice to have them backed up with hard data．

(1)

The topic discussed in the passage is ________．
[　　]
A．	a research on happiness
B．	the level of happiness
C．	the secrets of happiness
D．	the prediction of happiness

[　　]
A．	the proper genes
B．	health
C．	marriage

[　　]
A．	they are rich
B．	they are outgoing
C．	they are very sociable
D．	they don't pay more attention to exercise
