Happiness is a feeling that lights up your eyes，makes your steps light and makes you want to sing for no reason．Everyone wants to be happy．But sometimes，a guest comes in without invitation．It's unhappiness．Don't let it get you down．Send it away!When you are happy，the world feels like a better place．As the saying goes：When you smile，the world smiles with you； when you cry，you cry alone．Wearing a smile will make you more charming and help you to win lots of friends．A good mood always gives you hope，which makes trouble and problems easier to handle．
No matter how happy you are，it's normal to feel angry，sad or gloomy once in a while．Life is full of ups and downs．We can't change the way life is，but we can do our best to change a bad situation into a good one．To help us do this，it's good to know some of the factors （因素） that influence happiness．
One of the biggest factors is social relationships．People who are close to family and friends are happier than people who don't have those relationships．Talking and sharing is a good way to relax and build confidence．Knowing someone is there for you will make you braver and more outgoing．
Another factor is work or school．If you enjoy school，even if you have lots of homework or extra classes，you will still feel that your school life is meaningful and happy．But if you hate school，your negative attitude may cause you to feel bored and upset that you have to do so much work．
A third factor is your attitude towards life．How do you feel if you fail in an exam？Maybe you think it's unfair because you always study hard and should get a good mark．You can't stop blaming（责备） yourself．Or，maybe you accept it．You go through the paper carefully，find out why you made stupid mistakes，and tell yourself，"Take it easy!I'll do better next time!"Your attitude makes a big difference．
Do you smile a lot or wear a long face most of the time？

2．阅读下面短文，根据所读内容，在文章后第62到71小题的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词．
A serious problem for today's society is who should be responsible（有责任的） for our elderly and how to improve their lives．It is not only a financial problem but also a question of the system we want for our society．I would like to suggest several possible ways to this problem．
First，employers（雇主） should take the responsibility for their retired（退休的） employees．To make this possible，1% of profits（利润） should be left for this purpose．But when a company must take life-long responsibility for its employees，it may suffer from a commercial disadvantage because of higher employee costs．
Another way of solving the problem is to return the responsibility to the individual（个人）．This means each person must save during his working years to pay for his years of retirement．This does not seem a very fair model since some people find that it's difficult for them to pay for their daily life without trying to earn extra to cover their retirement years．This means the government might have to step in to care for the poor．
In addition，the government could take responsibility for the care of the elderly．The government could provide more money through government taxes to increase the level of pensions（养老金）．What's more，some institutions（社会福利机构） should be created for senior citizens，which can help provide a comfortable life for them．Unluckily，as the present situation in our country shows，this is not a truly practical answer．The government doesn't have enough money to care for the elderly，particularly when it is busy trying to care for the young．
One further solution is that the government or social organizations set up some working places especially for the elderly where they are independent．
In short，all these measures have advantages and disadvantages．Therefore，we are expecting to combine（结合）these measures so that we can provide the care we hope to give to our elderly generations．
