    The latest World Happiness Report says that prosperity is not the main reason for happiness. If you suffer real hardship, you are unlikely to be happy, but once your basic needs are met, money and material things become less of a necessity. Happiness depends more on recognising the things you have and appreciating them, rather than getting more things. Yes, money can buy you the latest smart phone or fashion item, but this enjoyment is usually short-lived. Remember all those presents you received for Christmas when you were little? You were delighted when you opened them, but not for long.
    【B1】______One essential factor is human relationships. People who have the support of family members and also have strong friendships are more likely to be happy. Feeling protected and respected and knowing you can trust the people around you is vital.

    【B2】______ Performing acts of kindness and generosity on a regular basis, for example, listening to a friend in need or carrying a neighbour’s shopping, will make you feel on top of the world. Even a simple smile can work wonders. In fact, the report says that one smile makes a person feel as good as eating 2,000 bars of chocolate.
    【B3】______But being healthy and staying healthy requires some effort. A healthy diet is crucial and so is regular exercise. Laziness will not make you happy. Exercising for twenty to thirty minutes a day helps to reduce stress and worry and makes you feel more positive and optimistic. If you have been feeling blue and worrying too much about your exams, do some exercise. You will also find that you sleep better.
    【B4】______If so, it’s probably because you haven’t had enough of it. Because teenagers tend to go to bed too late and have to get up earl, many suffer from a lack of sleep.
    【B5】______It also affects your ability to concentrate and may slow your growth. If you want to be happy and do well at school, try to get at least eight hours of sleep a night. Now that you know the theory, it is time to put it all into practice.
