When you get up in the morning, do you find it hard to choose what clothes to wear? If so, you probably need help to make the bigger choices in your life, like what to do when you’re older. “Brave New Girls”, by American author Jean Gadeberg, will help you make such choices. It says you must be a brave new girl. A brave new girl is one who is confident, healthy and happy. A brave new girl can realize her dreams. To be brave, you need to make a decision for yourself. Other people may tell you what to do, but you should not listen to them. You must only do what you want. If you always wear clothes like your favourite TV star, you must stop doing so. Instead, become your own star and wear the clothes you want. You have to like your body, it says. If you don’t, you will not take good care of it and won’t stay healthy. The book also says that girls must start becoming more confident. If you are confident, you’ll succeed in life. A good way to become confident is to realize that you are as clever as boys. In fact you are. Just look at their grades! Only then can you realize your dreams and become who you want to be.

請(qǐng)根據(jù)材料內(nèi)容,完成各題。

We always seem to want those things we don't have. Moreover, we are often convinced(使相信) that if we had those things we want so badly, we would finally be happy.

The truth is that happiness is an attitude(態(tài)度). _________is not something created by outside circumstances(環(huán)境), ______ instead is completely within your control.

Nothing will give you a deep sense of satisfaction and happiness, unless you cultivate (滋養(yǎng))happiness consciously. Below are some simple yet specific steps you can take to cultivate happiness.

Be grateful.

Create a sense of gratitude for what you have, for what is working, for what is wonderful and sweet in your life. A morning or evening gratitude list, written each day, can do wonders for helping you feel grateful.

Take care of yourself.

Identify(辨別) the small things in life that make you feel good, and do one daily. A short walk, a few minutes of writing in your journal, a short meditation, watching the sunset…whatever, will improve your outlook on life.

Read inspirational(勵(lì)志的) material.

It helps to be reminded of positive thoughts and positive attitudes. Get a small book of positive, inspirational thoughts and keep it by your desk. Read one or two thoughts each day.

Is the glass half empty or full? Life works better when the glass is half full regardless of your life status.

No matter how many wonderful things you do to create a positive, happy, satisfied life, you could still end up unhappy. Ultimately, happiness, gratitude, a feeling of satisfaction is a choice. So, from now on, choose to be happy!
