Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Money and success can’t keep lasting happiness for a long time. Aristotle, a great thinker, said, “Happiness depends on ourselves.” In other words, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.
The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. We often spend so much time thinking about the future —for example, getting into college or getting a good job. If you always think about those, you will be unhappy. You should enjoy simple happiness in your life, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier.
Another secret to living a happy life is to be active*, and have hobbies. They can help you forget your problems and time. Many people enjoy dancing, or playing a sport, such as swimming. You can forget about your problems, and only think about the activity. Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, do good things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping to buy food for an old person, or help your mother do some cleaning.The second paragraph tells us that ________.

My name is Sam. I joined a club called “Passing help” last month. Now let me tell you why I joined it.
One evening this May, on my way home my old car broke down. It was 25 miles from my home. I wanted to get a ride in somebody else’s car, but it was dark and there was no car. It was also hard to take a taxi. I decided to take a bus home. I went to a bus stop nearby.
After a while, a bus came ,but it did not go to my town. The bus driver was a young woman. She was kind and she told me which bus I should take. I waited there for about thirty minutes, but no bus came . At last a car came to me and a woman came out of the car. She was just the bus driver.
“ When I reached the bus station. I got to know that the bus to your town couldn’t come, so I returned here. I just can’t leave you here,” she said .“Get in my car and I will take you back to your home.”
“It is a long way,” I said.
“Come on, sir,” she said.“Let’s go.”
On the way she told me a story. A few days ago. There wasn’t gas(汽油) in her car. An old man drove her up to a gas station and then back to her car.
When we got to my home ,I wanted to give her some money to thank her, but she didn’t accept it. “ I only want to help others and do something nice for somebody. Pass it along.” She said.What happened to Sam one evening this May?
