25、B)   请根据短文内容及首字母提示，填写所缺单词，并将答案填写在答题卡标号为 66-75 的相应位置上。

Do you know  what  makes  you  happy?  Write  a  list  of  all  the  things  that  make  you  happy.  If  you  s【1】your time doing all these fun things, you’ll be really happy.

For most people,  fun isn’t  e【2】for real happiness. Paul Dolan wrote a book called Happiness by Design. He thinks happiness comes from both pleasure and  p【3】. If most of the things on your list are about pleasure, that is what you think makes you happy. But you also need activities with purpose.

If  you’re a student,  your “j【4】” is studying and passing exams. It’s easy to do well in subjects you like, but subjects you don’t like are less motivating ( 激 励 的 ). They’re not fun for you, but you have to studythem so you need to f【5】purpose. An “A” in a subject you hate won’t help the world. But can you be part of a study team with friends? Each person can study one part until they understand it and then teach it to the

r【6】of the group. The purpose becomes helping the team.

Go back to your list of things that make you happy. How many of them are activities that bring  purpose? Can you a【7】any more examples? Remember, some activities might bring both pleasure and purpose.

Now  you need to design a happy life.  Paul Dolan b【8】people should “decide, design, do”. First decide what brings  you pleasure and/or purpose  --- that  means your two lists. T【9】, don’t just think about these activities,  fill your life with them. For example,  you love riding a bike but n【10】have time to do it. So, ride to school or the library or the shops. Some parts of our lives are good or bad luck, but we can still design the rest to make more happiness.
