Happiness – Go for it：幸福的源泉

　　In this long journey we call "life", everybody is in pursuit of happiness and has their own interpretation of happiness. An inspiring idea is that happiness is not the absence of problems, but the ability to deal with them, which reveals the very truth about happiness. It cannot be achieved through waiting, but only through striving.

　　There is no way that life always progresses as we wish. Problems may occur and we find ourselves in trouble, but it doesn't mean we are deprived of happiness. There are numerous examples for us to follow: disabled people overcoming obstacles, patients fighting against disease, poverty-stricken people achieving their dreams -- all these inspiring heroes. Their lives are definitely not problem-free, but they have found happiness by courageously solving problems.

　　Therefore, it is essential to develop the ability to deal with problems. We need to muster our courage and confidence to face the fact. Meanwhile, we need to find effective ways to cope with them.

　　In a word, if we stay strong and approach problems effectively, there will be no storm in life that we cannot weather. And after the storm, happiness is within our reach.

　　本次作文主題圍繞“幸福的源泉”，難度不大。雖然表面有些抽象，但根據(jù)題干意義還是可以迅速地將本文分成2-3部分：1.總述幸福產(chǎn)生源泉，不是沒有問題，而是處理問題的能力。2.闡述自身有哪些解決問題、保持幸福的方法。

　　How to Live a Meaning Life：有意義的生活

　　Among all the highlighted topics, there is “how to live a meaning life?” Everyone has his or her own opinion. As the saying has it, “the greatest use of life is to spend it for something that will outlast it.” I cannot agree any more.

　　If our life is just to pursue something for ourselves, we will surely feel fruitless and meaningless when we grow old. From Steve Jobs’s bibliography, we can get that the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do. Steve Jobs has brought a great many changes to our world. His life, although short, definitely outlast. That’s a life worth living.

　　Therefore, if there is a way to make my life meaningful, it should be to find something I’m interested in and also helpful to others or the whole society. Only in this way can I keep my passion throughout my life until I finally fulfil my life.

　　【點(diǎn)評】

　　本次作文主題圍繞“有意義的生活”，由于本次主題有些抽象，難度稍大。以下是一條可行思路：1.由諺語引出話題，表述自己對生活的看法。2.引出具體例子，作為自己觀點(diǎn)的支撐。3.給出自己的行動(dòng)方向，如何“過有意義的生活”。

　　To solve problem, to taste happiness：解決問題,品味幸福

　　“What is happiness?” is a cliché topic. Everyone has a different definition to the true meaning of happiness. For Franklin Roosevelt, “happiness is not the mere possession of money; it lies in the joy of achievement, in the thrill of creative effort.” For Elbert Einstein, “if you want to live in a happy life, tie it to the goal, not the people or the things.” Although the two great men grant different definitions to happiness, there is something in common, that is, happiness derives from the capacity to solve problems. I believe that this is true.

　　There is no denying that life is full of problems. Let’s take environmental pollution for example. Pollution poses a great threat to our existence. Fortunately, this public hazard has drawn our greatly attention and many effective measures are being taking to solve it. In fact, now the public are benefiting more and more from pollution prevention and control. We can enjoy clear air, health food and beautiful scenes again. Isn’t this happiness?

　　All in all, indeed, equipped with the ability to cope with problems should suppose to be happiness. In other worlds, in the middle of problems lies happiness.

　　【參考譯文】

　　解決問題，品味幸福

　　“何為幸福?”這是一個(gè)老生常談的話題。每個(gè)人對幸福的真正含義都有不同的定義。對羅斯福而言，“幸福并不只是擁有財(cái)富，真正的幸福在于取得的成就 和創(chuàng)造帶來的激動(dòng)�！倍鴮�愛因斯坦來說：“如果一個(gè)人想要生活幸福，他就應(yīng)該寄希望于目標(biāo)而不是人或事�！北M管兩位偉人對幸福賦予了不同的定義，但是有一 點(diǎn)卻是共同的，那就是，幸福來源于解決問題的能力。我非常認(rèn)同這一點(diǎn)。

　　無可否認(rèn)，生活中總是充滿問題。以環(huán)境污染為例。環(huán)境污染極大的威脅了我們的生存。幸運(yùn)地是，這一公害已經(jīng)引起了人們的極大關(guān)注并且諸多有效措施被用來處 理該問題。事實(shí)上，如今人們從治污當(dāng)中得到越來越多的好處。我們可以重新享受清新的空氣、健康的食物和美麗的風(fēng)景。這難道不是一種幸福嗎?

　　總之，具備解決問題的能力就是一種幸福。換言之，幸福總在問題中。
