Groove in the school(第十三期）

L: Hey guys, welcome to our channel—Groove in the school. This is Lia from senior 2 international department.

J: This is Jeff from senior 2 international department. First, Let’s see some news.

L:That’s all for today’s news. Now we are going to enjoy a beautiful article called “The Happy Door”

J:Happiness is like a pebble dropped into a pool to set in motion an ever-widening circle of ripples.

L:As Stevenson has said, being happy is a duty.

J: There is no exact definition of the word happiness. Happy people are happy for all sorts of reasons.

L：The key is not wealth or physical well-being, since we find beggars,

J: invalids and so called failures who are extremely happy.

L:Being happy is a sort of unexpected dividend. But staying happy is an accomplishment,

J:a triumph of soul and character. It is not selfish to strive for it. It is, indeed, a duty to ourselves and others.

L: Being unhappy is like an infectious disease; it causes people to shrink away from the sufferer.

J：He soon finds himself alone, miserable and embittered. There is, however, a cure so simple as to seem,

L：at first glance, ridiculous: If you don’t feel happy, pretend to be!

J：It works. Before long you will find that instead of repelling people, you attract them.

L: You discover how deeply rewarding it is to be the center of wider and wider circles of good will.

J:Then the make-believe becomes a reality. You possess the secret of peace of mind,

L：and can forget yourself in being of service to others.

J:Being happy, once it is realized as a duty and established as a habit,

L:opens doors into unimaginable gardens thronged with grateful friends.

Together：This is our last broadcast of the semester，see you next semester.thank you！
