Happiness is important for everyone.Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness.Here is a story to help you.
Once a bird lived unhappily.So it traveled far away to look for its happiness.
It flew and flew.Suddenly it saw a spider climbing up a wall.The spider fell off the wall halfway.But it kept climbing again and fell off again.Even so, the spider didn't give up.The little bird asked the spider in surprise，“Why don't you have pain but happiness on your face though you fail again and again？”
“Because I keep making my efforts.I'm happy，” said the spider.
Then the little bird saw it: Happiness is a will in the heart.
The bird continued flying and saw a lame(跛足的) duck help a little duck who got lost to find the way back home.Although it was disabled, it had a smiling face.
“I'm happy because I can help others，” said the lame duck.
So the bird saw it: Happiness is a love in the heart.
The bird went on flying and suddenly saw a little dying flower, whose face was full of smile.The bird didn't know the reason.So it asked the little flower, “You're going to die.Why are you still so happy？”
“Because my dream will come true，” said the little flower.
“What is your dream？”
“To produce sweet fruit.”
The little bird saw it: Happiness is a hope in the heart.

二、阅读填空。
Do you find it hard to say no whenever someone comes to you for help Do you feel sorry when you have to tell people that you really can't help them And do you often say “yes” while your answer is “no”？ If you answered yes, you may be a “people pleaser”．Being friendly and helpful is a good thing.However, going too far can make you feel stressed.__1__
To start with, it's important to know your limits and create “boundaries” in your life.Be clear about what you really like to do.__2__ They can only come to you at that time.
__3__ In this case, you can try positive self talk.Remind yourself that you have dreams too.You don't have to give away your time and energy to do things that don't bring you joy.

Anger is a kind of feeling.Many things can make you angry.When your teacher gives you too much homework, when your team loses an important game, and when a friend borrows your favorite thing and then breaks it, you may get really angry.
Usually, your body will tell you when you are angry.For example, you breathe faster, your face turns red and you may want to break something or hit someone, but sometimes, you hide your anger.For example, you may hide it in your heart.The problem is that if you do this, you may get a headache or your stomach may hurt.
In fact, it's not good to hide your anger, and it's normal for you to get angry sometimes.But anger must be let out in the right way, without hurting others or yourself.
When you get angry, you can talk about it with other people.It's helpful to talk about your anger with an adult, such as parents and teachers.When you talk about anger, those bad feelings can start to go away.Here are some other things you can do when you start to feel angry: talk to a good friend, count from 1 to 100, give someone a hug, go for a bike ride, think about good things, etc.
Remember that how you act when you are angry can make everything better or worse.Don't let your anger control you.
Anger __1__ ★Your teacher gives you too much homework.
★Your team loses an important game.
★A friend__2__ your favorite thing and then breaks it.
Behavior ★Breathe faster or your face turns__3__．
