C When Helen Koller was nineteen months old,a brief illness made her both deaf ad blind.With such limitations,how could Keller ever be expected to find happiness? Because happiness has been considered a personal idea,it is difficult to define ()Many people throughout history have tricd.Greek scientist and philosopher Aristotle wrote,"Happiness depends upon ourselves,"which means that everyone is responsible for their own bappiness.Roman statesman and philosopher Lucius Seneca wrote of a particular quality of happiness,saying,"True happiness is to enjoy the present,without anxious dependence upon the future." Is there a scientific base for happiness?Researcher suggests happiness is a matter of viewpoint:"A truly 英语试卷第3页（共8页） happy person explains life events and daily situations in ways that seem to keep their happiness,while an unhappy person explains experiences in ways that seem to strengthen unhappiness".In general,this means the way you choose to remember events and situations influences your happiness. Some researcb concludes happiness is made up of three parts:pleasure,engagement(亲密关系)and meaning.Pleasure involves (things that give physical and emotional joy,such as playing a sport or seeing beautiful art.Engagement involves positive connection with other people,such as studying or working with people you like.Meaning involves a feeling that your work is useful and important to others. Even with scientific rationalization ()questions remain.For example,are younger people happier than older people?In fact,the opposite seems to be true.This may be because younger people are more likely to experience higher levels of ncgative emotions,such as anxiety and anger.The young also have less control over their lives because they lack both independence and the ability to make many of their own decisions. Perhaps the most important question is whether you can change how happy you are.Studies of twins suggest that genetics (forms about half of your happiness level.Your quality of life influences about 10 percent of your happiness.That means about 40 percent of your happiness is decided by your choices and actions. From this explanation we can see that one way you can make yourself happier is to set goals.Keller had a detinition of happiness in keeping with this idea.She felt happiness did not come from simply trying to satisfy your own wishes but rather by devoting your time and skills to improving the world in some way. Even if you are unable to achieve a goal that makes the world better in some small way,simply trying will likely give your life meaning and,at the same time,happiness. 18.Why does the writer mention the words ofAristotle and Seneca? A.To show what is the definition of happiness. B.To suggest that we should enjoy the present. C.To explain why we can choose to be happy or not. D.To stress that people have different ideas about happiness. 19.What can you learn from the passage? A.People should communicate with others positively. B.The young may prefer to make decisions on their own. C.Your happiness influences the way to understand your life. D.Your happiness largely depends on your situation of your life. 20.According to Helen Keller,you may feel happier when you A.choose your dream school B.do clean-up in your neighborhood C.watch your favorite movie D.talk with your closest friends 21.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A.A Special Quality of Happiness B.The Positive Effect of Happiness C.The Truc Meaning of Happiness D.A Scientific Base of Happiness 0 "Fire!It's on fire!"A cry cut through the silence of the night.A couple was trying to save their 6-year-old boy from the fire.However,before they could reach out for the little boy,they were trapped in the fire,only leaving the helpless boy.
