Happiness is for everyone. You don't need to care about the rich. Though they have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools, they may often feel lonely.
In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your teachers will help you; when you do something wrong, people around you feel unhappy; when you succeed in something, your friends will say congratulations to you. All these are your happiness. If you notice a bit of them, you can see that happiness is always around you.
Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling(感覺) of your heart. Although you are poor, you can also say you are very happy. Money is not everything. You have something else that money can't buy. When you meet with difficulties, you can loudly say you are very happy because you have more chances to challenge(挑戰(zhàn)) yourself.

Is there someone you hate? Well, maybe you don’t really hate them. But

you get really angry every time you think of them. If you don’t let this anger go, it can turn into bitterness(痛苦)

Bitterness appears when we can’t forgive(原諒) someone who has hurt us or made us angry. Someone might say or do something that hurts us. But Instead of controlling the anger, we keep it deep inside. Before long, a bitter feeling begins to grow. We may think we’re hurting that person by criticizing him or her often, but we’re really only hurting ourselves.

Bitterness can not only lead to serious health problems such as heart disease, but also hurt our relationships with friends and family members. No one enjoys being around an anger person for very long.

If you see bitterness in your life, here are some ways to deal with it.

Accept it

Instead of trying to deny your anger, make it clear to yourself and accept it. See your anger for what it is and quickly deal with it.

Stop making excuses for it

You may feel you have a right to be anger. You may think you’re right  and the other person is wrong. You may even secretly enjoy making the other person look bad. But in the end, bitterness hurts you much more than the other person. The bitterness will hold you back, and the other person will go on with his or her life.

Forgive and forget it

You probably can’t completely put the anger out of your mind. But you can decide to forgive the other person. Forget it and move on. You’ll enjoy better health and peace of mind.

閱讀上面的短文,從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中,選出一個(gè)最佳答案

1.According to the passage, we might get angry when someone ______.

A.holds us back

A.make the person who hurts us look bad
