32、ways need to make an effort to be happy，even if you reach the point of saying you are contented，you still need to keep focusing and working on the things that made you happy.” Scott also said the book was born out of her interest in the human mind as well as how difficult she found it to cope after

33、her mother died of cancer two years ago.“I was always interested in psychology，but a lot of happiness books dont address the fact that you can be happy even if your life isnt going according to plan. The key is managing expectations.” She says，“In the book，I focused on what were the things most like

34、ly to make people happy，the ones with the most scientific evidence.” People should think that being happy is yet another task you have to do and then feel guilty when you dont do it.

42、nd successfully got support for its cause. Now we are rapidly approaching the point where about one half of all AIDS cases in the world are women. But no one is taking this dangerously high level of infection among women seriously enough. Women usually have a worse time dealing with HIV than men do.

43、 In most cases, the woman is talking care of children as well as her sick partner. She may not even have time to take care of herself. The HIV-positive woman ends up shouldering the family as well as her own personal problems. Men, however, are usually the ones who have insurance, income and access

44、to doctors. They get care. Women often do not. The discrimination against HIV-positive women is simply terrible. They are likely to be more inactive than men in the home and workplace because too many people think that women are the cause of the disease. This is not at all true. They get it from men

45、. They dont just simply have HIV. Of course, theres social discrimination against all people with HIV.

Once a woman knows shes HIV-positive, she lives in fear that other people will find out. Shes so frightened, she will go into hidin

47、g, into an isolated place by herself. Its not at all uncommon to meet a woman who has been HIV-positive for nearly 10 years and has never told anyone, except her doctor. And the resulting stress is enough to make her sick. But HIV positive women who get support, who can discuss their trouble and the

48、n do something about it-whether that means taking better care of themselves or going to the United Nations to struggle for their rights-are likely to live longer. Active women dont die out of shame in a comer. This happens to too many HIV-positive women.56. Women with HIV were ignored for a long tim
