in such an attractive, fun - filled place are happier than othersif so you have some mistaken ideas about the nature of happinessmany intelligent people still think fun equals happinessthe truth is that fun and happiness have little or nothing in commonfun is what we experience during an acthappiness is what we experience after an actit is a deep, long-lasting emotiongoing to an amusement park or a ball game, watching a movie or television are fun activities that help us relax, temporally forget our problems and maybe even laughbut they do not bring happiness, because their positive effects end when the fun endsi have often thought that if hollywood stars have a role to play, it is to teach us that happiness has nothing to do with funthey have constant access to exciting parties, fancy cars, expensive homes, everything that spells happiness but in memoir（回忆录） after memoir, they expose the unhappiness hidden beneath all their fun: depression, alcoholism, drug addiction, broken marriages and lonelinessask a bachelor why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfyingif he is honest, he will tell you that he is afraid of making a commitment(承诺)for commitment is in fact quite painfulthe single life is filled with fun, adventure and excitementmarriage has such moments, but they are not its most distinguishing featuressimilarly, couples that choose not to have children are deciding in favor of painless fun over painful happinessthey can dine out whenever they want and sleep as late as they wantcouples with babies are lucky to get a whole night s sleepi dont know any parent who would choose the word fun to describe raising childrenunderstanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun is one of the most liberating realizations we can ever come toit liberates time: now we can devote more hours to activities that can truly increase our happinessit liberates money: buying that new car or those fancy clothes that will do nothing to increase our happiness now seems pointlessand it frees us from envy: we now understand that all those rich and famous people we were so sure are happy because they are always having so much fun actually may not be happy at all63what is the passage mainly about?amarriage and commitmentbsuccess and satisfactioncfun and happinessdentertainment and responsibility64the author probably agrees that _afun creates long - lasting satisfactionblong - standing fun may lead to happinesscfun provides enjoyment while pain leads to happinessdfun is short-lived while happiness is long-lasting65what does the author think of marriage?ait ends in pain bit means commitmentcit affords greater fun dit leads to raising children66if one gets the real meaning of happiness, he _awon t place too much value on money b. will start a business cwill seek for freedom d. wont devote himself to his familydeveryone knows you must exercise regularly to keep good health. indeed, staying physically fit is a big part of our culture, we consider (or rightly so) that healthy people are attractive people. since most of us want to be attractive, there is no shortage of exercise clubs, training videos, magazines and books offering to help us stay physically fit. unfortunately, however, our culture doesnt place the same emphasis (重视) on mental fitness. although we tend to like men and women with strong, healthy-looking bodies, we dont have the same degree of respect or attraction for smart, educated, mentally healthy people. this is a pity, because there are great rewards for people who have developed the ability to think well. if your mind is well trained and flexible (灵活的), you will be able to understand a great deal of what happens around you. and if you are also well educatedthat is, if you understand basic science, mathematics, music, art, literature, history and so onyou will find it much easier to make good decisions throughout your life. over the long run, this leads to a sense of control over your destiny (命运) and a much better life than otherwise (in another way). people who are poorly educated or who dont think wellthat is, people who are not mentally fitsee things differently. their world is controlled by mysterious, often malevolent (恶意的) forces. such people live within a system they will never master, forced to follow rules they will
