问题    Read the following paragraphs in which five people talk about happiness. For questions 61 to 65, match the name of each speaker (61 to 65) to one of the statements (A to G) given below. Mark your answers on your ANSWER SHEET 1.
Kenneth:
   Is this saying really true? I have experienced much pain, sadness and sufferings before I find true happiness.  I believe it’s true that we have to go through pain and suffering to be happy. I think everybody would agree that if we want something, we have to work for it. It feels good to look back at the things you’ve gone through when you finally got what you wanted. If we worked hard and achieve something, we feel happy.
Andrea:
   Happiness for me is when I feel loved by those I love.., there arc a few persons who can make me feel high for days when they tell me sweet words, compliments, etc.., or just show they care about me as much as I do about them. Happiness is also when I don’t worry, when I know that the persons I love are alive, healthy and ok. And it is when I have hope about something I wish to come true.., hope is important.
Thomas:
   In a world like this, where there is no kind of’ stability, no possibility of anything lasting, but where everything is thrown into a restless whirlpool of change, where everything hurries on, flies, and is maintained in the balance by a continual advancing and moving, it is impossible to imagine happiness. It cannot dwell where, as Plato says, continual Becoming and never Being is all that takes place.
Robinson:
   I believe and agree that happiness is based on disposition on the position, it’s internally based not external.  It’s how you look up on things, not how things is working on for you. Happiness is a gift, you must accept to receive it. It’s a state or feelings of pride ,joy, contentment, love and the like or a combination of one or all of this feeling. Lastly, I believe it varies on each person receiving or experiencing it, depending on how they express, explain or realize the feelings of bappiness within them.
Barbara:
   The rich are not likely to be happier than the middle income group or even those with very low incomes.  People with college education are somewhat happier titan those who didn’t graduate from high school, and it is believed that this is mainly because they have more opportunity to control their lives. Yet people with a high income and a college education may be less happy than those with the same income and no college education.
   Now match each of the persons (61 to 65) to the appropriate statement.
   Note: there are two extra statements.
Statements
[A] Happiness is attained only when in a state of steadiness and stillness.
[B] Happiness derives from your satisfaction in life.
[C] Happiness is an attitude toward life and how you feel about life.
[D] The more opportunities you can control your lives, the happier you may be.
[E] No pains, no gains.
[F] Happiness is achieved only when you are healthy.
[G] You feel happy when you love and are loved.
Kenneth
