The Secret of Happiness

Once upon a time, there were three brothers named Samuel, Timothy and Xander, who lived in a cottage by the woods. They were honest and hardworking. Every day, they would venture into the forest looking for the fell wood. Their life continued in this manner. However, the brothers were always sad even they lived a good life.

One day, they met a poor woman who carried a sack and they offered her a help. They took turns in carrying the sack, and at last, when they reached her home, they felt very tired. This old woman was actually not an ordinary person. She had magical powers. She asked them whether there was anything she could give them in return. ―We are not happy, and that has become our greatest cause of concern,‖ replied Samuel. The woman asked what would make them happy. Each of them mentioned a different thing from one another. Then, she granted what they wished for, gave them several things and asked them to go home.

The days passed and soon a year was over. The situation was however, now different for Samuel, Timothy and Xander. They became rich men and it made them lazy to manage what they had got from the woman. In short, all of them were unhappy again.

One day, the three of them met up and decided to visit the old woman at her home. ―That woman has magical powers which turned our dreams into reality. However, since we are no longer happy, we must go and seek her help now. It is she who will be able to tell us the secret to attaining happiness,‖ said Samuel. Greeting her, each of the brothers recounted how he had turned unhappy again. ―Please tell us how we can once more be happy,‖ said Timothy. ―Well,‖ replied the old woman. ―It is all in your own hands. See, when each of you made his wish and it was granted, you were happy. However, happiness never lasts without a very important thing – content. Earlier, since you were happy but never really content or satisfied, boredom and misery overcame you and you became sad again. Only if you learn to be content, can you truly enjoy the bliss of happiness.‖

The brothers realized their mistake and went back home. They saw how lucky they were to have the gifts for which they had once craved.

Once upon a time, there were three brothers named Samuel, Timothy and Xander, who lived in a cottage by the woods. They were honest and hardworking. Every day, they would venture into the forest looking for the fell wood. Their life continued in this manner. However, the brothers were always sad even they lived a good life.

One day, they met a poor woman who carried a sack and they offered her a help. They took turns in carrying the sack, and at last, when they reached her home, they felt very tired. This old woman was actually not an ordinary person. She had magical powers. She asked them whether there was anything she could give them in return. ―We are not happy, and that has become our greatest cause of concern,‖ replied Samuel. The woman asked what would make them happy. Each of them mentioned a different thing from one another. Then, she granted what they wished for, gave them several things and asked them to go home.

The days passed and soon a year was over. The situation was however, now different for Samuel, Timothy and Xander. They became rich men and it made them lazy to manage what they had got from the woman. In short, all of them were unhappy again.

One day, the three of them met up and decided to visit the old woman at her home. ―That woman has magical powers which turned our dreams into reality. However, since we are no longer happy, we must go and seek her help now. It is she who will be able to tell us the secret to attaining happiness,‖ said Samuel. Greeting her, each of the brothers recounted how he had turned unhappy again. ―Please tell us how we can once more be happy,‖ said Timothy. ―Well,‖ replied the old woman. ―It is all in your own hands. See, when each of you made his wish and it was granted, you were happy. However, happiness never lasts without a very important thing – content. Earlier, since you were happy but never really content or satisfied, boredom and misery overcame you and you became sad again. Only if you learn to be content, can you truly enjoy the bliss of happiness.‖

The brothers realized their mistake and went back home. They saw how lucky they were to have the gifts for which they had once craved.

30. What would probably happen if the woman did not help the three brothers?

A. Three brothers would live happily. B. They would travel around to find a happy life . C. They would be sad and morose entire their life. D. Three brothers would realize their own problem .

Seahorses are tiny fish that are named for the shape of their head, which looks like the head of a tiny horse. There are around 36 seahorse species, which are found in tropical and temperate coastal waters.

Seahorses‘ bodies are covered in tiny, spiny plates, all the way from their head down to their curled, flexible tail. The tail can grasp objects, which is useful to anchor themselves to vegetation. To move forward through the water, seahorses use their back fin. To move up and down, they adjust the volume of air in a tiny pocket inside their body.

The seahorse life-cycle is very unique. A female seahorse lays dozens, sometimes hundreds, of eggs in a pouch on the male seahorse‘s abdomen. Called a ‗brood pouch‘, it‘s a bit like the pouch of a kangaroo, used for carrying young. Depending on the seahorse species, the eggs remain in the brood pouch for up to 45 days, until the eggs are ready to hatch. The new baby seahorses find other baby seahorses and float together in small groups, clinging to each other using their tails.

A heat wave, by definition, is a period of time in which the temperatures are

higher than normal for that region at that time of year. High humidity is often

associated with a heat wave, though not a requirement.

When high pressure from aloft—10,000-25,000ft remains strong over an area

for several days to weeks, heat wave occurs. This happens both in the Northern

and Southern Hemispheres, during the summer as the jet stream, follows the path

of the sun. On the equator side of the jet stream, high pressure builds up in the

middle layers of the atmosphere.

People of all ages can get the effects of a heat wave, but the ill, very young,

elderly, or overweight tend to be affected more severely. Heat exhaustion, which

shows itself in symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, headache and nausea, can

lead to dehydration.

If a heat wave continues for a longer period, crops and forests can become

very dry making it possible for forest or brush fires to start and spread. Without

rain, these fires can sometimes rage for days, causing loss to crops and livelihoods

as well as homes and properties
