It is, of course, un-American to think in terms of
fools and knaves. We do, however, seem to be dedicated
to the idea of buying our way to happiness. We shall all
dream as offered and spending billions every year in the
attempt. Clearly the happiness-market is not running out
of customers, but what are they trying to buy?
economy is based on a dedicateng
We are taught that to possess is to be happy, and then we are made to want. We are even told it is our duty to want. It was only a few years ago, to cite a single example, that car dealers across the country were flying banners that read “You Auto Buy Now.” They were calling upon Americans, as an act approaching patriotism, to buy at once, with money they did not have, automobiles they did not really need, and which they would be required to grow tired of by the time the next year’s models were released.

Unit 6 Elements of Happiness 新21世纪大学英语综合教程BOOK 3 Video script:
Hi class, What a tense week! What a tight schedule this week! Everybody is keeping busy with the school courses and their requirements1 . Don’t tell me2 you even have no time for breathing! Well, that’s the way it is3. We have to put up with4 the fast pace of life. Is it true? True, most of us live in time segments by engagement calendars. We tend to be time-driven5 and generally rushed. As a result, we are likely to act hastily6, and even lose control. Concerning the fast pace of life, one wonders: Are you happy? Are you happy when you are swamped7 by your packed schedule? Are you happy when you are too busy to take time off for yourself, your family, or your friends? Think about it.

Unit 13 Happiness
尽管所有人的欲望均朝向幸福,然而推动欲望的不是同一个物体。人可以 选择不同事物,却都选择正确。 人生幸福有一个简短而充分的描述:健全的心智寓于健康的身体。 Happiness has a brief and sufficient description: a sound mind in a sound body. —— 洛克《教育漫话》
伊曼努尔· 康德
Some of Kant's Views of Happiness
1 ―私人幸福原则‖与―道德原则直接相反—康德的第二《批判》 ‖the principle of private happiness ― is ‖the principle of the direct opposite of morality― 私人幸福原则是有关满足个人的自然偏好的经验境况,所以是 因人而异的。 The principle of private happiness is an experience to meet the natural preference of the individual , so it is varies from person to person. 道德法则被设想为客观必然的,因为它对具有理性与意志的每 个人都应当有效 The moral law was conceived to be objective and inevitable, because it is effective to everyone who is rational
2 "使某人幸福实相当不同于使他好,或则说使他 对自己的益处审慎而精明实相当不同于使他有道 德“,即是说,追求幸福乃是追求私人的益处, 而非客观上好的东西"—《道德形而上学基础》 To make someone happy quite differents from making him a kind person, in other words,to make him being prudent and shrewd on his own benefits quite differents from making him moral, that is to say, the pursuit of happiness is just the pursuit of private benefits, rather than objective on the good things

Part One(1-2):The author points out that when we are not sure what happiness is ,we tend to be misled by the idea that we can buy our way to it.
Part Two(3-7):The author offers a number of examples to show how this misconception of happiness gives rise to the “happiness-market” in a highly commercialized society(The United States)
2、Vanity Fair : Originates from John Bunyan’s (翰.班扬) Pilgrim’s Progress(天路历程)(本书讲述了一个坚韧 的基督教徒为寻求永生而踏上荆棘遍布的长旅,充满 危险,诱惑与灾难的尘世被他一步步抛弃,只为负罪 的灵魂在高天之上得到迎接),Where there was a town fair held in a village called Vanity. Then , William Thackeray used it for the title of his novel ,which satirizes society in the early 19th England(故 事主角是一个机灵乖巧的漂亮姑娘,她尝试过贫穷的 滋味,一心要掌握自己的命运,摆脱困境。她不择手 段,凭谄媚奉承,走小道钻后门,飞上高枝。作为陪 衬的人物是她同窗女友,一个富商的女儿,她懦弱温 柔,驯顺地随命运播弄,从贫贱到富裕的道路不平稳, 富家女的命运亦多坎坷,两人此起彼落的遭遇,构成 了引人关怀又动人情感的故事
2、What’s the author’s purpose of writing?
To attempt a definitting some extremes to the idea and then working in toward the middle.
4.英国:新娘走路去教堂 在传统的英国式婚礼中,一般不会使用豪华的轿车,而是由一位女花童带领婚礼队 伍走向教堂。新娘一般会手持象征好运的马蹄莲,并沿途洒满鲜花花瓣,意喻着新 浪和新娘由此踏上幸福的婚姻生活之路。婚礼中宾客还会把自己带来的小蛋糕放在 桌子中间,层层叠起来,放置在顶层的蛋糕糕称为Christening cake,“洗礼糕“并且有” 诞生之瓶“的意思。这个蛋糕会一直保留到第一个小孩出生为止。
7.丹麦婚礼:秘密进行 筹办婚姻会好几天,可却是秘密进行的,因为公开筹办会触怒“鬼怪”或引起他 们的嫉妒。在婚庆快要结束的时候,人们把一大坛啤酒抬到园子里。新郎新娘的手 握在酒坛上方,然后酒坛被打得粉碎。在场的适婚女子会把碎片捡起来,捡到最 大的碎片的女子注定会第一个结婚,而捡到最小的注定会终身不嫁。 8.法国婚礼:浪漫简单 结婚前先订婚,仪式简单,一般由女方的家长宴请男方的家长及兄弟姐妹,也可 同时邀请其他亲戚、甚至一两名好友出席。婚礼也已逐渐简化,但仍不失为最隆 重的家庭节日,带有庄严神圣的色彩。婚礼由市长或他的一名副手主持,习惯上 是在周二、四、五、六早9时至下午5时之间。婚后大宴宾客。 9.日本婚礼:传统的道教 在传统的日本道教仪式上人们供奉kami存在于自然界的神灵。在举行婚礼时,神 职人员祈求神灵保佑新婚夫妻。仪式的最后一项是“共饮青酒”,即参加婚礼的 人共同分享盛在三只扁平杯子中的米酒。这三个杯子从下往上依次骡放,新郎拿 起第一个杯子,啜三口酒,然后传给新娘,新娘也连续啜饮三口酒,再将酒杯依 次传给其他亲友。然后再开始喝第二杯和第三杯酒。

不同国家,不同习俗,同样的幸福,不一样的表达
不同国家,不同习俗,同样的幸福,不一样的表达,看看异国的风土人情,感受异国的喜庆 盛宴,入乡随俗也是想要体验异国婚礼必须遵守的规则。下面我们一起走进他们的婚礼吧! 1,不丹:半夜婚礼更吉祥 经过20年的爱情长跑,42岁的刘嘉玲和46岁的梁朝伟,在全球“快乐指数”排名第八的小国 不丹,举行了盛大的世纪婚礼。 这场世纪婚礼,也使得人们对不丹这个名不见经传的神秘小国以及它特殊的婚俗产生了浓厚 的兴趣。不丹位于中国和印度之间的喜马拉雅山脉东段南坡的内陆国。不丹人多信奉佛教, 结婚时,多数不丹人会听取佛的旨意。在双方父母确定下婚事后,会请喇嘛占卜二位新人的 生辰八字,若八字不合,则做道场化解。不丹人很多婚礼会在半夜举行,他们认为,这个时 候的人,心灵十分纯洁,是举办婚礼的良辰吉时 2.巴厘岛:男方需抢亲 巴厘岛一代的抢婚习俗是指女方带着简单的行装,在事先预定好的时间和地点等候男方来 “抢”新娘,女方在被抢时,假意反抗,但旁观者不会去伸手搭救。按习俗,男女双方都藏 身于邻村朋友家里,到一定期限,经过调解两人才恢复正常的婚姻关系,这是一种简历在男 女双方自愿基础上的抢婚 3.德国:摔坏东西越多越吉利 与德国人一直给人以严谨、认真的感觉不同,传统德国人的婚礼是热烈而疯狂的。在德国的 婚礼中有一个所谓“Polterabend”的仪式,当新娘新郎进入婚礼现场后,宾客们就会“叮叮 当当“的砸盘、摔碗,并且要持续很长时间。他们用这种方式一方面表达了对新人们的祝贺, 一方面他们认为,用这种方式,可以帮助新婚夫妇去除烦恼,迎来甜蜜的开端。更有趣的是, 新婚夫妇每听到宾客砸一件物品后,必须立刻砸碎一件物品用来响应。仿佛对方砸一件物品 是对他们恭喜祝贺,他们砸一件物品则是表示感谢。
Human felicity is produced not so much by great pieces of good fortune that seldom happen , as by little advantages that occur every day. 与其说人类的幸福来自偶尔发生的鸿运,不如说来自每 天都有的小实惠----------美国总统富兰克林
10.犹太人婚礼:不忘圣战 祝福完毕后,新郎以右脚打破酒杯,象征对当年(公元70年)圣殿的毁灭的怀念以及 提醒人们永远不要忘了当年耶路撒冷圣殿毁灭时的悲伤时刻。但在现代婚礼中,人 们则以此风俗来表示人类关系的脆弱,新生活的开始以及摈弃一切偏见和无知 11.印第安人婚礼:静悄悄的进行 加拿大印第安人的婚礼带有浓厚的民族色彩。婚礼地点多选择在印第安人聚居区公 共建筑物里举行,一般是一幢较大的木头房屋。举行婚礼时,亲朋好友,左邻右舍 ,村中居民纷纷来到木房里,众人席地而坐,互致问候。男女老幼身穿民族服装, 款式新颖,色泽艳丽。虽然印第安人性情开朗,但婚礼场合却显得非常安静,即使 说话也是轻言细语。 12.菲律宾婚礼:恪守古老传统 通常在婚礼上,新娘要身穿传统的白色婚纱,而新郎则身着菲律宾传统男式礼服( barong)。这种礼服是一种透明的系扣男式衬衣,通常用来参加一些特殊聚会或重 大场合。婚礼的主办人将会参加婚礼,见证新人结拜为夫妻。而这些主办人同时意 味着指导和帮助,即新婚夫妇在需要时可以得到他们慷慨的帮助。
Pre-reading question:
1、What’s the author’s answer to the question ” What is happiness”?
According to the author ,happiness lies in the idea of becoming , in the meaningful pursuit of what is life-engaging and life-revealing.
5.埃及:新郎家人代替新郎求婚 在埃及,向新娘求婚的人不是新郎本人而是新郎的家人。埃及许多婚事还是父母之 言。Zaffa,也就是婚礼,不是一个简单的仪式,而是一个充满音乐的列队游行,鼓、 风笛、肚皮舞、男人们手持火红的剑,这个仪式宣告,两个人婚姻的开始。 6.希腊:戴花环围绕圣坛转三圈 在希腊,常常由新郎的教父担任嘉宾为新郎、新娘戴上花冠(花冠有白色和金色的, 花冠由鲜花或由金色或银色的纸包起来的树枝编织而成),戴上花冠后,新人们围绕 圣坛三圈,婚礼上的宾客则朗读《圣经》,手持蜡烛并在婚礼后将花冠放在一个特 殊的盒子里。在婚礼当日,新娘通常会在手套中放一些糖,预示二人的婚姻甜蜜、 美满。
