    Five Happiness Secrets For Tough Times

    Sonja Lyubomirsky, an author, has researched the science of happiness for years．

    Here are her tips to help you cope with a bad economy, and increase your bursts of happiness throughout the day．

1.________

    “You could spend a lot of time thinking deeply,” says Lyubomirsky．“But that just makes you feel even more pessimistic, more out of control, and affects your self esteem．Your relationships will suffer and your job performance will suffer．”

    Get rid of pessimism．One of the most effective ways to cope when things are difficult is to adopt a positive thinking strategy．“What can I learn from this? Times are tough, I’ve been furloughed at work, but I can spend more time with the kids, adopt a new hobby, or learn a new set of skills．”

2.________

    Now more than ever we need each other to survive．Lyubomirsky found that doing good things for friends, family, or strangers can make you happier．Think of practical, everyday gestures that can make someone’s life a little bit easier．For example, Lyubomirsky says, “Maybe now many of us can’t afford to take a cab to the airport, so offer to give a friend a ride．”

3.________

    You don’t need an expert to tell you that relationships are critical to happiness．

    Not being the bread-winner anymore or not being able to fulfill your kid’s needs can weigh down hard on your family life．But the trick is to stop feeling guilty and focus on caring for your loved ones．

    “I was at a psychology conference where an expert was talking about the effects of this economy on families and how parents can’t afford to buy their kids luxuries like toys anymore,” says Lyubomirsky．“But what they don’t realize is that kids don’t care about toys — what they care about is parents being grumpy and taking it out on them．”

4.________

    “If you find a happy person you will find a project,” says Lyubomirsky．“Happy people all have goals they care about．”

    Commit yourself to a project – whether it is a business you want to start or a dance you want to learn．But it’s also important to remember to be flexible in these times．

    Don’t get frustrated if circumstances are stopping you from meeting your goals．Adopt and change!

    “If your spouse has lost their job you might have to change your goal,” says Lyubomirsky．“Or you might have to learn a whole new skill for a new job．”

5.________

    When times are tough, it’s easy to get skip your regular workouts in favor of moping in front of the TV and eating a bag of chips．Your thinking is “I have more important things to worry about right now than looking good．”

    But carve out a small part of your day to give your body some TLC．It will go a long way in boosting your happiness．“Even if you can’t afford to go to the gym,”

    Lyubomirsky says, “take time out to exercise at home．”

    In the 1920s demand for American farm products fell, as European countries began to recover from World War I and started austerity （紧缩） programs to reduce their imports．The result was a sharp drop in farm prices．This period was more disastrous for farmers than earlier times had been, because farmers were no longer self-sufficient．They were paying for machinery, seed, and fertilizer, and they were also buying consumer goods．The prices of the items farmers bought remained constant, while prices they received for their products fell．These developments were made worse by the Great Depression, which began in 1929 and extended throughout the 1939s．

    In 1929, under President Herbert Hoover, the Federal Farm Board was organized．It established the principle of direct interference （干预） with supply and demand, and it represented the first national commitment to provide greater economic stability for farmers．

    President Hoover's successor attached even more importance to this problem．One of the first measures proposed by President FranklinD．Roosevelt when he took office in 1933 was the Agricultural Adjustment Act, which was later passed by Congress．This law gave the Secretary of Agriculture the power to reduce production through voluntary agreements with farmers who were paid to take their land out of use．A deliberate shortage of farm products was planned in an effort to raise prices．This law was declared unconstitutional （违背宪法的） by the Supreme Court on the grounds that general taxes were being collected to pay one special group of people．However, new laws were passed immediately that achieved the same result of resting soil and providing flood-control measures, but which were based on the principle of soil conservation．The Roosevelt Administration believed that rebuilding the nation’s soil was in the national interest and was not simply a plan to help farmers at the expense of other citizens．Later the government guaranteed loans to farmers so that they could buy farm machinery, hybrid （杂交） grain, and fertilizers．

1.What caused the problem in the demand for American farm products?

    A．The effect of the Great Depression．

    B．The shrinking of overseas markets．

    C．The destruction caused by the First World War．

    D．The increased exports of European countries．

2.The word “successor” refers to ______．

    A．President Hoover                 B．US Secretary of State

    C．President Franklin               D．US Secretary of Agriculture

3.The Agricultural Adjustment Act encouraged American farmers to ______．

    A．reduce their scale of production

    B．make full use of their land

    C．adjust the prices of their farm products

    D．be self-sufficient in agricultural production

4.The Supreme Court rejected the Agricultural Adjustment Act because it believed that the Act ______．

    A．might cause greater shortage of farm products

    B．didn't give the Secretary of Agriculture enough power

    C．would benefit neither the government nor the farmers

    D．benefited one group of citizens at the expense of others

    The world is not coming to an end on December 21, 2012, the US space agency insisted Monday in a rare campaign to dispel widespread rumors fueled by the Internet and a new Hollywood movie．

    The latest big screen offering from Sony Picture, 2012, arrives in theaters on Friday, with a 200-million-dollar production about the end of the world supposedly based on myths backed by the Mayan calendar．It is claimed that the end of time will come as a Planet X---or Nibiru---heads toward or collides with the Earth．

    Some websites accuse NASA of hiding the truth on the planet’s existence, but the US space agency condemned such stories as an “Internet hoax”．“There is no factual basis for these claims,” NASA said in a question-and-anwser posting on this website．“If such a collision were real, astronomers would have been tracking it for at least the past decade, and it would be visible by now to the naked eye．Obviously, it does not exist．Credible scientists worldwide know of no threat associated with 2012,” it insisted．“After all, our planet has been getting along just well for more than four billion years,” added NASA．

    There is another planet, Eris, floating in space．But the small planet similar to Pluto will remain safely fixed in the outer solar system and it can come no closer than four billion miles to the Earth, according to NASA．

    Earlier theories set the disaster for May 2003, but when nothing happened the date was moved forward to the winter in 2012 to coincide with the end of a cycle of the ancient Mayan calendar．

    NASA insisted the Mayan calendar in fact does not end on December 21, 2012, as another period begins immediately afterward．

    And even if the planets were to line up as some have forecast, the effect on our planet would be “negligible（unimportant）”, NASA said．

    “And while comets and asteroids （小行星） have always hit the Earth, big hits are very rare,” NASA noted．The last major impact was believed to be 65 million years ago, resulting in the end of dinosaurs．

    “We have already determined that there are no threatening asteroids as large as the one that killed the dinosaurs,” the space agency said．

1.______ played a key role in the spread of the rumors．

    A．A new book                       B．The Internet and a new Hollywood movie

    C．NASA                             D．An Indian calendar

2.We can infer that ______．

    A．people didn’t take the rumor seriously

    B．Planet X --- or Nibiru does exist

    C．astronomers have been tracking Planet X for over ten years

    D．the rumor caused a panic among some people

3.NASA thinks that Eris ______．

    A．might have a threat to the Earth B．doesn’t have any threat to the Earth

    C．is too far away to be visible    D．is similar to our planet, where life might exist

4.Which of the following is the best title?

    A．New Hollywood movie 2012

    B．December 21, 2012, Not the end of the world

    C．End of the ancient Mayan calendar

    D．How rumors came into being
