Five Happiness Secrets For Tough Times
Sonja Lyubomirsky, an author, has researched the science of happiness for years.
Here are her tips to help you cope with a bad economy, and increase your bursts
of happiness throughout the day.
61. ________
“You could spend a lot of time thinking deeply,” says Lyubomirsky. “But that
just makes you feel even more pessimistic, more out of control, and effects your self
esteem. Your relationships will suffer and your job performance will suffer.”
Get rid of pessimism. One of the most effective ways to cope when things are
difficult is to adopt a positive thinking strategy. “What can I learn from this? Times
are tough, I’ve been furloughed at work, but I can spend more time with the kids,
adopt a new hobby, or learn a new set of skills.”
62. ________
Now more than ever we need each other to survive. Lyubomirsky found that doing
good things for friends, family, or strangers can make you happier. Think of practical,
everyday gestures that can make someone’s life a little bit easier. For example,
Lyubomirsky says, “Maybe now many of us can’t afford to take a cab to the airport, so
offer to give a friend a ride.”
63. ________
You don’t need an expert to tell you that relationships are critical to happiness.
Not being the bread-winner anymore or not being able to fulfill your kid’s needs can
weighh down hard on your family life. But the trick is to stop feeling guilty and focus
on caring for your loved ones.
“I was at a psychology conference where an expert was talking about the effects
of this economy on families and how parents can’t afford to buy their kids luxuries
like toys anymore,” says Lyubomirsky. “But what they don’t realize is that kids don’t
care about toys — what they care about is parents being grumpy and taking it out on
them.”
64. ________
“If you find a happy person you will find a project,” says Lyubomirsky. “Happy
people all have goals they care about.”
Commit yourself to a project – whether it is a business you want to start or a dance
you want to learn. But it’s also important to remember to be flexible in these times.
Don’t get frustrated if circumstances are stopping you from meeting your goals. Adopt
and change!
“If your spouse has lost their job you might have to change your goal,” says
Lyubomirsky. “Or you might have to learn a whole new skill for a new job.”
65. ________
When times are tough, it’s easy to get skip your regular workouts in favor of moping
in front of the TV and eating a bag of chips. Your thinking is “I have more important
things to worry about right now than looking good.”
But carve out a small part of your day to give your body some TLC. It will go a
long way in boosting your happiness. “Even if you can’t afford to go to the gym,”
Lyubomirsky says, “take time out to exercise at home.”
You don"t need an expert to tell your that relationships are critical to happiness. Not
being the bread-winner anymore or not being able to fulfill your kid"s needs can weigh
down hard on your family life. But the trick is to stop feeling guilty and focus on
bringing up your loved ones.

请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。注意:每空1个单词。
A big part of being an effective team member is being a good listener, so listening carefully is very important. Do you think your listening skills need improving? Simply remember the ladder to become a better listener.
Look at the person who is speaking to you. If you make eye contact, the speaker feels like he has your undivided attention. If an individual comes into your office to talk, stop what you are doing. When you continue typing or staring at your computer screen, the person talking to you feels insignificant.
Ask questions. This shows you’re interested and that you are hearing what he is saying.
Don’t interrupt. When you interrupt, the speaker feels you’re not interested in what he is saying and will be frustrated(沮丧的) by the inability to finish a complete thought. Take the time to listen---just relax and open your ears!
Don’t change the subject. Changing the subject indicates that your mind is elsewhere. It shows you’re not concentrating on what’s being said at that moment, and this makes the speaker feel uncomfortable. If you change the subject, the speaker could also get the impression that you’re avoiding the topic and may be hesitant to bring it up again.
Empathize(有同感). When someone shares information with you, put yourself in his shoes. Doing this will allow the two of you to discover solutions more easily and will also help you appreciate a perspective(观点) different from you own.
Respond verbally(口头地) and non-verbally. Using an enthusiastic tone shows you’re interested in what the speaker is saying. Smiling helps too! Avoid crossing your arms since this can be interpreted(解释) as being closed off. If you’re speaking with someone who’s sitting, you should sit too. Standing over someone is too official and may make the other person feel uncomfortable.
If you are unsure whether you are a good listener or not, simply take the following test. In your next meeting or conversation, make a mental note, even better, write down on a piece of paper the number of times you interrupt. The fewer marks there are on your paper, the better listener you are! This seems like a silly test, but you may be surprised by the quantity of marks on your paper. After all, the worst listeners usually aren’t aware that their listening skills need some attention or improvement.

Upon waking up, Jim found himself lying on a stretch of sandy shore with his face half-buried in the sand.  He found, that his clothes had been almost torn apart.  His arms ached and his body was heavy like stone.  Before he could stand up, he was brought to his knees due to exhaustion.  As he lay on the sand, he began to study the environment for signs of human activities.  But there was nothing except for a few trees and some stones within eyesight.
He remembered how, a few hours before, he had still been struggling for survival in the vast South China Sea.  The boat that had carried his friends and him out to sea for a fun fishing trip had run into a terrible storm.  James, who was the captain of the boat, and had been at the wheel, lost control of the boat.  The boat moved from side to side in the storm.  Suddenly, it hit a sharp object, most probably a rock from the sea and was wrecked.
Jim could not remember how he had managed to drift onto land.  His friends were not in sight.  He was saddened by the fact that they might have all drowned.  Then he suddenly saw a thin column of smoke on the far side of a hill.  “Could it be a house?”  Jim asked himself.  Even if it wasn’t, it gave him some fresh hope of surviving the ordeal that he was going through.  He struggled on towards the place from where the smoke was rising.
Finally, he found himself at the top of the hill.  He saw a little green valley dotted with a few huts and trees in the sun.  His eyes were not playing tricks on him.  There was a village located at the bottom of the valley.  The sight gave him renewed hope.  He began to run toward the village with his last ounce of energy.
68. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. Jim found himself in a desert when he woke up.
B. Jim and his friends were fishing at South China Sea.
C. Jim lost control of the boat he and his friends were in.
D. The boat hit a rock but kept steady.
69. Jim struggled toward the place of the smoke probably because ______.
A. he was afraid of being too near the sea
B. he thought his friends might be in the place of the smoke
C. the smoke implied human activities
D. All of the above.
70. What does the underlined word “ordeal” in the third paragraph probably mean?
A. bad weather        B. order   C. suffering      D. ideal state
71. According to the passage, what is NOT TRUE about Jim?
A. He survived a terrible sea storm.
B. He had the feeling that his friends survived the wreckage.
C. At first he didn’t find signs of humans but then he saw a smoke rising.
D. He finally found a village at the bottom of a valley.
