Most people want to be happy，but few know how to find happiness．Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness．Aristotle，a Greek thinker，said，"Happiness depends upon ourselves．"In other words，we make our own happiness．Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier．
The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often，we spend so much time thinking about the future-for example，getting into college or getting a good job-that we fail to enjoy the present．You should enjoy life's simple pleasures，such as reading a good book，listening to your favorite music，or spending time with close friends．People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives．
Another secret to living a happy life is to be active，and have hobbies where you forget your problems and time．Many people experience this dancing，or playing a sport，such as swimming．You can forget about your problems，and only think about the activity．Finally，many people find happiness in helping others．Studies show that people feel good
when they spend their time helping others．If you want to feel happier，do good things for someone．You can help a friend with his or her studies，go shopping to buy food for an elderly person，or simply help out around the house by washing the dishes．
19.How many pieces of advice on happiness does the writer give us?
A. One.
B. Two.
C. Three.
D. Four.

A．Reading a good book．B．Traveling to a foreign country．C．Playing a sport．D．Spending time with close friends．

Dear editor，
I am not a good-looking boy and I'm not good at studying，either．Some people don't even want to talk to me．So I usually feel lonely．Sometimes I think that if I wanted to leave home，nobody would care．
How can I stop feeling like this？
Peter
***********
Dear Peter，
Without knowing more about you，it is hard for me to give you some good advice．But first，I am sure that you are wrong that nobody would care if you left home．What about your parents？And other family members？It seems that you are very sad．You'd better go to see a doctor or talk to your parents．They will be able to help you．
Second，I'm sure there's someone in your class who feels lonely，too．You never know how other people feel inside．Try to make friends with them．Or you may join a club to meet new people and to keep yourself busy．You need to find happiness in yourself．Write a list of all the good things about yourself，learn to like yourself，and then others will see your confidence and like you，too．
Editor

Studen ts at Gateway International School have started farming a small piece of land in the school. The students in the school are from different countries, such as Malaysia and the Philippines.
