Why do some people enjoy more health and happiness than others? It seems that they are
able to realize their dreams rapidly. The good news is that you can be one of those people.
____36____ Now consider the following habits of exceptionally happy people from my book
Find Your Happy.
Make themselves available to success. Happy people are great goal setters. ___37___
This allows them to stand out in different areas of their life Ask yourself if you are open for
opportunities and setting big goals.
Don't use the word luck. When you look at an exceptionally happy person, you may say,
"They are so lucky." But a conversation with them will reveal that luck is not in their vocabulary.
Instead, they believe that passion and persistence (坚持不懈) equals great results.
___38___ Exceptionally happy people are busy making their goals come true. They
understand that spending time arguing with others takes them away from what they care about
most. They love hearing people talk about their views, but happy people won't spend time trying
to convince you to adopt their beliefs.
Walk out of their comfort zone and seek risk often. ____39____ So they ask for adventure
and satisfaction through seeking new experiences. They see risk as growth and are happier
because they live a life with no regrets.
___40___ Happy people don't spend a lot of time thinking about happiness. They live in the
moment and enjoy the ups and downs of life. Happy people still experience setbacks, but they
look at those setbacks as a way to learn more about themselves and to grow. Happiness is not
something they seek, as it is a daily practice that never leaves them.
A. Try to be more patient.
B. Don't try to make you win over with debates.
C. Realize there is more to life than being happy.
D. I know this is true from personal experience.
E. They work toward their goals daily and see opportunities in everything.
F. Happy people have learned that settling in any area of life will hold them back.
G. Happiness is available, especially when you understand what happiness is.

writing.

【点睛】七选五做题技巧。做题的时候边读边做。各个问题附近的句子都需要重点阅读,
圈画一些线索,再从选项中寻找相关的特征词用来判断正确答案。带入排除法也是一种很
好的方法。另外,如果发现有一题拿不准的,先跳过,先做容易的能做出的题,直到读完
整篇文章。至此,文章的要点和主旨、各个段落之间的逻辑关系应该基本就能清楚了。然
后再回过去做之前不确定的题目。
比如小题 5,本段介绍在西方国家人们如何度过法定假期;后文 They may also choose to stay
at home to relax and forget about work.可知,B 选项,他们可能与家人一道出去旅行,切题,
故选 B。
