　　英語(yǔ)四級(jí)聽(tīng)力美文第1篇:Happiness

　　Many people think that when they become rich and successful,happiness will naturally follow.Letme tell you that nothing is further from the truth.The world is full of very rich peoplewho are asmiserable as if they were living in hell.We have read stories about movie stars who committedsuicide or died from drugs.Quite clearly, money is not the only answer to all problems.Wealthobtained through dishonest means does not bring happiness.Lottery winnings do not bringhappiness.Gamble winnings do not bring happiness.To my mind, the secret to happiness lies inyour successful work,There is no use sayingin your contribution towards others’ happinessandin your wealth you have earned through your own honest effort.If you obtain wealth throughluck or dishonest means,you will know that it is ill earned money.If you get your money bytaking advantage of others or by hurting others,you will not be happy with it.You will think youare a base person.Long-term happiness is based on honesty, productive work, contribution, and self-esteem.Happiness is not an end; it is a process.It is a continuousprocess of honest, productive workwhich makes a real contribution to othersand makes youfeel you are a useful, worthy person.As Dr. Wayne wrote, “There is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way.”“Some day when I achieve these goals,when I get a car, build a houseand own my own business,then I will be really happy.”Life just does not work that way.If youwait for certain things to happenand depend on external circumstances of life to make youhappy,you will always feel unfulfilled.There will always be something missing.
