In many people’s eyes, middle school students are happy and carefree（无忧无虑）. But is it the truth? And what students happy or unhappy?
To find out the answers, Li Jiahui, a student in Pinggu No. 3 Middle School, Beijing, spent six months students’ sense(感受) of happiness last year. The girl made a survey with questions such as “ Are you feeling happy?” and “What makes you unhappy?”
After studying the answers from 284 students, Li learned that 40 percent of the students feel unhappy, and the from studies is the main reason for their unhappiness.
“More than 50 percent said they were under pressure and 70 percent get enough sleep,” Li said. “It shows that middle school students are not as happy people think. They worry a lot, and they can get angry easily.”
Li also said that over 90 percent say their happiness has to do with how much money they have. Instead, they care about their relationships（关系）with friends, teachers and parents. “Students always feel better when they get well with each other,” Li said.
After her survey, Li listed tips that may make students happier, such as: Treat yourself better, be kind and polite to your friends and relatives, and try new things.

(原创) Many people use their mobile phones as the and are more used to checking e-mails before sleeping. , these habits are becoming sleeping problems.
Several years ago, my boss used to stay up working on her mobile phone and got badly ill that. Now she always leaves her phone in another room And she encourages friends to do so. “I sent each of my friends the christmas gift – an alarm clock so that they could stop using their phones as the alarm clock,” she said.
If your mobile phone wakes you up in the morning, it may also be keeping you up at night. A study in 2008 showed that people in mobile phone radiation（辐射）mostly had problems. They often fall asleep very late and feel tired in the day time. And according to a Swedish study, a quarter of young people in this country feel like there must be phones around them. Most of them feel for not returning messages. So they even haveto to their friends before sleeping.
So what kind of people prefer to use mobile phones in their bedrooms? A recent study has shown that three-quarter people aged between 18 and 34 prefer to sleep with their phones near them. That number falls off a little in middle age, but only people aged 65 and are used to leaving the phone in room while sleeping.
