Are people less happy or happier when they get older? If your answer is “happier”, then you are right, based on a study published five years ago. It found that people generally become happier and experience less worry after age fifty. In fact, it found that by the age of eighty-five, people are happier with their life than they were at eighteen.
The findings came from a Gallup survey of more than three hundred and forty thousand adults in the United States in 2008. At that time, the people were between the ages of eighteen and eighty-five.
Arthur Stone in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Science at Stony Brook University in New York led the study. His team found that levels of stress were the highest among adults between the ages of twenty-two and twenty-five. Stress levels dropped sharply after people reached their fifties.
Levels of happiness were the highest among the kids and those in their early seventies.
The survey also found that men and women have similar emotional patterns as they grow older. However, women at all ages reported more sadness, stress and worry than men did.
So why would happiness increase with age? One theory is that, as people get older, they become more thankful for what they have and have better control of their emotions. They also spend less time thinking about bad experiences.

Do you want to be the best student in your class? Be the envy of all of your friends in school and be the小题1: of your teachers and parents !
First, a best student must study hard. This is the primary task of a student. Remember, if you don’t do anything, you will be nothing. Ask questions in class if you do not understand something. In addition, try to enjoy all the小题2: you learn at school and work hard on them. It seems that hard-working students can have success more小题3: .
Second, good study habits are very useful. For example, when you prepare for a test, make小题4:    that you have all of the proper materials including books, pencils, paper, calculators, etc. Underline the words that you do not understand. And try marking some of the themes mentioned in the book. Then, come up小题5: study questions and try to answer them. You’d better stop to have a 小题6: every hour to refresh your memory
Don’t forget to try asking your parents for 小题7: . They have personal learning experiences and can help you with your studies in many ways. Usually, the students who ask their parents for help can do b 小题8: in class than those don’t.
Lastly, remember to never give up. You are already on your way in becoming the best student! The t 小题9:  is that it doesn’t matter to fail if you pick yourself up and try even harder.小题10: a lot of the famous people were all once failures(失败), they never lost heart and managed to climb to the top and succeed.
Whenever we meet with difficulty or failure, teachers, parents or others often say to us or perhaps we say to ourselves, “Never give up.” These can be encouraging words and words of determination(决心). A person who believes in himself will keep trying to reach his goal no matter how many times he fails. In my opinion, the quality of determination to succeed is an important one to have. Therefore, I believe that we should never give up.
One reason is that if we give up too easily, we will rarely achieve anything. It is not unusual for us to fail in our first attempt(尝试) at something new, so we should not feel disappointed (失望)and should try again. Besides(此外,而且), if we always give up when we fail, we will not be able to develop new skills and grow.
Another reason we should never give up is that we can learn from our mistakes so that we can not make the same ones. If we do not try again, the lesson (教训)that we learned is wasted.
Finally, we should never give up because as we work to reach our goals, we develop confidence, and this confidence can help us improve our lives. If we never challenge (挑战)ourselves, we will begin to doubt our abilities.
In short, it is important that we do not give up when working for our goals. Whether we succeed in the end or not, we will learn something, and what we learn will help us to become better and more confident. Further more, if we give up, we have no chance of achieving our goals any more , but if we keep making great efforts, there is always a chance that we will succeed in the future.

Every place offers the possible dangers for getting hurt, even staying at work. We may face dangers like walking into desks or chairs, receiving unexpected cuts from a paper knife and so on. Industrial jobs have similar and more dangers like getting body parts hurt by machines or falling from a height.
No one wants to get hurt. Some accidents are avoidable(可避免的). Most accidents  happen because of common things seen every day—an open desk drawer, a chair pulled out too far, water on the floor and so on. We slowly get used to these things we see every day and never think about what they could possibly become in the future.
Think about the following to prevent dangers to yourself and others:
1. If there is something you see and know may become a danger for yourself or others, do      something about it. Close a desk drawer, clean up or put a sign over the water, turn off the power before leaving, and so on.
2. Get extra persons’ help and support on a task that is too hard for a single person.
3. Study the situation and think what could possibly happen and change if necessary. Do it before something happens and you won’t have to say some day, “ I should have… How sorry I feel…”
To use an old phrase “ Safety is everyone’s duty.” Looking down on it could lead to being hurt. Keep the rule in mind every day “ Everyone wants to go home in the same condition they came to work in –or better.”
