The online class
Keep teens busy while learning important etiquette and social skills for personal and

Growing up, Cassie Holmes was known as “Little Miss Happiness”. A cheerful outlook seemed
to come naturally to her—or at least nothing in her life suggested that the word was anything but a
sunny place.
Then, just a week before she was to marry her childhood sweetheart, her cellphone rang: her
fiance had abruptly decided to call things off. The experience left her ashamed and depressed. “I
was confronted with the harsh reality that had things happened,” Ms. Holmes writes. “Feeling this
depth of unhappiness forced me to realize that I shouldn’t rely on my preference to experience
happiness going forward.”
Ms. Holmes, a social psychologist at UCLA’s Anderson School, was studying exactly how
people can make themselves feel better and get through tough situations. In “Happier Hour: Focus
on What Matters Most”, she vividly conveys what she has learned from her study. Happiness is a
well-covered topic, and so Ms. Holmes has focused her research on how people can spend their
time to boost well-being.
One of the first misconceptions she tackles is that more free time is always better. Her analysis
of time-use data and well-being finds that people are the happiest with 2 to 5hours of free time per
day—a nice reality check for anyone fantasizing (幻想) about quitting a job to move to a tropical
island. It is also a comforting statistic for those who, like Ms. Holmes, are raising young kids. Two
hours is achievable if 10 is not, and 10, it turns out, may not be better anyway.
Life will always include episodes and events that almost seem to lower our spirits. “Happiness
is a choice,” she writes. “How we decide to approach our hours and spend our days determines the
happiness we get to enjoy in life.”
4. What are the first two paragraphs intended for?
A.Displaying Holmes’ happy childhood.
B.Describing Holmes’ failed marriage.
C.Showing what sparked Holmes’ study.
D.Making Holmes’ experience known.
5. What does Holmes’ study concentrate on?
A.Physical and mental well-being. B.The harsh reality a person faces.
C.The general concept of happiness. D.A person’s time-related happiness.
6. How does Holmes rate the idea of “quitting a job to move to a tropical island”?
A.Unbelievable. B.Unacceptable. C.Appealing. D.Practical.
7. What does the author try to tell us in the last paragraph?
A.Our life is full of ups and downs.
B.Happiness is hard for us to seek.
C.We are the masters of our happiness.
D.Determination is the key to happiness.
C
To raise money for restaurant workers who had to stay at home during COVID, two brothers,
Aiden and Louis Ardine, decided to walk 3,200 miles across America to raise money.
Having just arrived on the sands of the Pacific Ocean, Aiden and Louis Ardine have now
completed their five-month walk which started on the Asbury Park boardwalk in New Jersey.
They hoped to raise $30,000 for some charities (慈善组织) that were helping restaurant workers
waiting for lockdown (隔离) to end, but ended up making $70,000 — which they gave way to the
COCO Fund and the Restaurant Workers’ Community Foundation.
“This would not have been possible without the help of a huge community of people, whether
people were donating or helping us guide our way across the United States.” said Aiden Ardine.
“This was surely an adventure full of hope, and it proved people are born good and want to help
