Many people are aiming and wishing to be happy. What they do not know is that happiness is a journey and not a destination (目的地). Every good thing in the world is already here and it’s up to us to work for happiness. 1.
2. Don’t pretend if you do not like a situation. You can keep away from a person that you don’t like. You can change a job. You can choose friends. If you think people, things and events in your life don’t give you happiness, let them go and think of better ways.
Always think positive. 3. When you think you have less money in your pocket, don’t say “I don’t want to be poor”. Say I want to be rich or I have more than enough money for everything. You’ll notice you’ll attract a lot of good things, gifts and good people in your life that could improve your financial condition.
Start your day with hopes. By the time you wake up, open your eyes with hopes in your brain. You’ll get more energy than waking up with bad mood (心情). 4.
Always smile. Nobody wants to be upset people. 5. You cannot sell your products if you are not marketable enough. Smile makes some people’s day. Smile and the world smiles with you.
Happiness depends on yourself. If you want happiness in your life, you have to prove it in your actions. To receive, feel and be happy is to do happy things to others.
A.Be true to yourself.
B.Here are some of the how-to’s.
C.Think of good things and not the opposite.
D.Be thankful for the journey you are taking.
E.If you start your day with good mood, you’ll end it with good mood.
F.Accept people for who they are and don’t compare them with other better people.
G.It is so uncomfortable to be with people who are always dissatisfied with everything.
Some caterpillars’ warning signals (信号) may have evolved (进化) from walking. A team, writing in the journal Nature Communications, reported that the hair-like structures the living things use to make sounds evolved from legs.
The team studied caterpillars which use these structures to communicate their ownership of leaves. This means the caterpillars are able to “tell” strangers to go away without risking injury in fighting. “These are really interesting caterpillars,” said Dr. Jayne Yack from Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada, who led the research. “They make signals using hair-like structures which are on their back ends.”
The caterpillars drag these structures across the leaf to make scraping (刺耳的) sounds when strangers enter the area of their leaves. “When they make this signal, the strangers leave,” explained Dr. Yack. “It’s like saying ‘I’m here, get out of here — I already own this leaf’.”
The scientists looked at other species (物种) within the same group of caterpillars and created their “family tree”. They used chemical markers (标记物) to work out the relationship between the animals, showing which in the group were the more ancient species and which species evolved more recently. “Those more ancient species actually don’t have these sound-producing structures. They have legs that they use to walk towards strangers,” said Dr. Yack. These more ancient species, she explained, walk towards strangers and try to fight against them. “They can kill each other in the fighting,” Dr. Yack added. She said that the evolution of the scraping show had allowed the caterpillars to solve their fighting without injury. “So our idea is that these signals actually avoid harm to both sides — they solve fighting in a more ‘friendly’ way.”
The study also provides a map of an evolutionary process that many other biologists are researching.
