For a child，happiness has a magical nature.I remember making hide—outs in newly-cut hay，playing cops and robbers in the woods，getting a speaking part in the school play.Of course，Kids also experience lows，But their de— light at such peaks of pleasure as winning a race or getting a new bike is unreserved.
In the teenage years the concept of happiness changes.Suddenly it’s conditional on such things as excitement. love，popularity and whether that zit will clear up before night.I can still feel the agony of not being invited to a party that almost everyone else was going to.But I also recall the ecstasy of being plucked from obscurity at another event to dance with a John Travolta look.alike.
66.___________________
My dictionary defines happy as“lucky”or“fortunate”，But I think a better definition of happiness is“the capacity for enjoyment”.The more we can appreciate what we have，the happier we are.It’s easy to overlook the pleasure we get from loving and being loved，the company of friends，the freedom to live where we please，even good health.
67___________________
Later，peace descended again，and my husband and I enjoyed another pleasure--intimacy.Sometimes just the knowledge that he wants can bring me joy.
You never know where happiness will turn up next.When I asked friends what made them happy，some mentioned apparently insignificant moments.“I hate shopping，”0ne friend said，“but there’s a clerk who always chats and really cheers me up.”
68___________________
I get a thrill from driving.One day I stopped to let the school bus turn onto a side road.The driver grinned and gave me a thumbs-up sign.We were two allies in the world of mad motorists.It made me smile.
69___________________
Psychologists tell us that to be happy we need a mixture of enjoyable leisure time and satisfying work.I doubt that my great grandmother，who raised l4 children and took in washing，had none of either.She did have a network of close friends and families，and maybe this is what fulfilled her.If she was content with what she had，perhaps it was because she didn’t expect life to be very different.
70___________________
While happiness may be more complex for us，the solution is the same as ever.Happiness isn’t about what comes to us—it’s about how we perceive what comes to us.It’s the knack of finding a positive for every negative. and viewing a setback as a challenge.It’s not wishing for what we haven’t had，But enjoying what we do possess.
A.Another friend loves the telephone.“Every time it rings，I know someone is thinking about me.”
B.When we think about happiness，we usually think of something extraordinary，a pinnacle of sheer delight and those pinnacles seem to get rarer the older we get.
C.In adulthood tlle things that bring profound joy—birm，love，marriage--also bring responsibility and the risk of loss.Love may not last，sex isn’t always good，loved ones die.For adults，happiness is complicated.
D.We，on the other hand，with so many choices and such pressure to succeed in every area，have changed happiness into one more thing we“gotta have”.We’re so self-conscious about our“right”to it that it’s making us miserable.So we chase it and equate it with wealth and success，without noticing that the people who have those things area’t necessarily happier.
E.I added up my little moments of pleasure yesterday.First there was sheer bless when I shut the last lunchbox and had the house for myself.Then I spent an uninterrupted morning writing，which I love.When the kids came back home，I enjoyed their noise after the quiet of the whole day.
F.We all experience moments like these.Too few of us register them as happiness.

短文赏析
孩提时代的快乐是神奇的，无穷无尽的，但是到了青少年时代，快乐就稍稍变了样子，种种烦恼开始出现，而成年之后，快乐就变得更加复杂，不再能够简单定义。作者认为，快乐应该被定义为享受的能力。我们应当能够从一切中得到乐趣，看到自己的幸福所在。每个人都有不同的快乐之源.与他人闲聊、接听电话、开快车等，都可能给不同的'人带来快乐的感觉。心理学家说追求快乐应该能够放松，工作满意。作者认为，拥有金钱并不一定会带来快乐，快乐与否取决于个人对人生的态度和看待生活的方式，只有享受周围的一切才能与快乐相会。
