In October 2018, someone in South Carolina won the lottery (彩票) of $1.5 billion. The possible chances of winning were 1 in 302.5 million! It’s easy to imagine what one could do with this lucky 1 , but would this money actually make someone happy? Based on the 2 of several lottery winners, it probably wouldn’t. Suddenly coming into huge sums of money can 3 a person’s life in unexpected and sometimes unpleasant ways. For example, William Post won $16.2 million in a lottery in 1998. Within three months, he was back to be broke (破产) 4 he spent a lot on worthless business. But William felt much happier without any money. Then there was Callie Rogers, a British teenager who won $3 million in 2003. She treated her family and friends to lavish gifts and bought 5 designer clothes. After six years, Callie changed back to a poor teenager and 6 that money didn’t make her happy. It’s found that these lottery winners may 7 know how to handle so much money and do not get advice from financial experts. They waste money on things they don’t need and 8 too much money to friends and relatives. Researchers find that people are happy when they are able to pay for their 9 needs, such as food, clothes, a safe place to live, and health care. Expensive things only make people happy temporarily (暂时). Spending time with family and donating reasonable amounts of money to charities make people 10 than money does.

He warns Scrooge to change his ways if he doesn’t want to end up like him. He also tells Scrooge to expect 6 ghosts to visit him. That 7 , the ghosts visit Scrooge. First, the Ghost of Christmas Past takes him back to his childhood and reminds him 8 his happy days as a child. Then the second ghost, the Ghost of Christmas Present, takes him to see 9 others are spending Christmas this year. Everyone is happy, even poor people. The last one, the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come, takes him to the 10 . Scrooge sees that he is dead, but nobody cares. He is so 11 that he wakes up in his bed and finds out it is only the next morning—Christmas Day! Scrooge decides to change his life and 12 to be a kind person.
