预测范文
As an old saying goes, “Happiness is not the absence of problems, but the ability to deal with them.” Why is difficult to define, or rather discover and achieve happiness? I maintain the major determinant lies in a person’s attitudes.
There is little correlation between the circumstance of people’s lives and how happy they are. Instead, happiness lies in the struggle to be happy. To demonstrate, people sometimes go to extremes, and frantically pursue money, power, high social status, and so on, which are all symbols of success—but never of happiness. Perhaps if they shifted their life goal from ultimate success to unswerving efforts and to confidence that they will be successful one day they would be a great deal happier.
Besides defining it, how do I achieve happiness? There is little doubt that various people have diverse ways of going about this task. As for me, the most significant secret is realizing that happiness is a by-product of something else. The most obvious sources are those pursuits that give our lives a purpose. These can be anything from playing tennis to studying insects. The more passions we have, the more happiness we are likely to experience.
参考译文
正如古语所说:“幸福并非没有问题出现,而在于有解决问题的能力”。为何很难定义、发现和获得幸福呢?我认为最重要的因素在于一个人的态度。
人们的生活环境和他们的幸福之间没什么关系。相反,幸福在于追求幸福的奋斗之中。例如,人们有时候会走极端,疯狂追求金钱、权利、很高的社会地位等。这些都是成功的象征,但并非幸福的象征。如果他们把人生目标从终极成功转向不懈的努力,并相信未来他们必将成功,他们将会更加幸福。
除了定义幸福之外,我如何来获取幸福呢?毫无疑问,不同的人对于实现这一目标有着迥然不同的方式。对我而言,最大的秘诀就是认识到幸福只是其他事情的一种副产品。最明显的来源就是给予我们目标的那些追求。这些追求可以是从打网球到研究昆虫的任何事情。我们越有激情,就越有可能感受到幸福。
