 Are you truly happy? Do you ever know what it means to be happy and what it takes to achieve happiness?1.      The following are a few tips that I follow to create happiness in my life.

Surround yourself with happy people. It is easy to begin to think negatively (消极地) when you are surrounded by people who think that way.2.

  3.        These few minutes will give you the opportunity to focus on the positive things in your life and will lead you to continuous happiness.

  4.        Whether you treat yourself to lunch,take a long,relaxing bath or simply spend a few extra minutes on your appearance,you will be subconsciously (下意识地) putting yourself in a better mood.

  Finding the humour in situations can also lead to happiness. Find a way to make light of a situation that would otherwise make you happy.

  Keeping healthy is another way to achieve happiness.5.     

   A. What makes one person happy may be very different from what makes someone else happy.

   B. On the contrary,if you are around people who are happy,their emotional state will be easily passed to you.

   C. Being overweight or not eating foods containing nutrition has a negative effect on your mood.

 MELBOURNE,Australia- A kangaroo frightened by a man walking his dog attacked the pair,throwing the pet underwater and hitting the owner in the stomach with its back legs. The Australian,Chris Rickard,was in stable condition. The attack ended when the 49-year-old man struck the kangaroo in the throat.

  Rickard said he was walking his dog,Rocky,on Sunday morning when they surprised a sleeping kangaroo in Arthur’s Creek. The dog chased the animal into a pond,when the kangaroo turned and knocked the pet underwater.

  When Rickard tried to pull his dog free,the kangaroo turned on him,attacking with its back legs and tearing a deep cut into his stomach and across his face.

“I thought I might take action to drag the dog out from under his grasp,but I didn’t expect him to actually attack me ,” Rickard,49.told The Herald Sun newspaper. “It was a shock at the start because it was a kangaroo,about 5 feet high. It doesn't go around killing people. ”

  “I was stuck having to hold on to the dog with both hands because it was half drowned and I couldn’t really see anything because the kangaroo just attacked me. ”

He added, “All I could do was just keep pushing for the bank and he was trying to push me under the water,so at that point I struck him in the throat and that made him back off a little bit. ”

  “I don’t think I,ll ever be able to watch kangaroo programmes quite the same as I used to—it might bring back a couple of bad memories. ”

  Kangaroos rarely attack people but will fight if they feel threatened.

  Dogs often chase kangaroos,which have been known to lead the pets into water and defend themselves there.

 There is a distinction between reading for information and reading for understanding.1.       

  The first sense is the one in which we read newspapers,

magazines,or anything else.2.        Such materials may increase our store of information,but they cannot improve our understanding. And clearly we don’t have any difficulty in gaining the new information,for our understanding was equal to them before we started. Otherwise,we would have felt the shock of puzzlement.

  The second sense is the one in which we read something that at first we do not completely understand. Here the thing to be read is at first sight better or higher than the reader. The writer is communicating something that can increase the reader’s understanding.3.     Otherwise one person could never learn from another. Here “learning” means understanding more,not remembering more information.

  What are the conditions in this kind of reading? First,there is inequality in understanding.4.        Besides,his book must convey something he possesses and his potential readers lack. Second,the reader must be able to overcome this inequality in some degree. And he should always try to reach the same level of understanding with the writer. If the equality is approached,success of communication is achieved.

  5.     It is the least demanding and requires the least amount of effort. Everyone who knows how to read can read for entertainment if he wants to. In fact,any book that can be read for understanding or information can probably be read for entertainment as well.

   A. Thus,we can employ the word “reading” in two distinct senses.

   B. Such communication between unequals must be possible.

   C. We can get access to the content of those materials easily.

   D. The writer must be “superior” to the reader in understanding.

   E. The writer should have a better communicating skill.

   F. Besides gaining information and understanding,there’s another goal of reading—entertainment.

   G. Reading for entertainment is capable of increasing our understanding for information.
