However depressed you may be feeling now, if you look back, there certainly will have been events that made you happy—maybe the time (21) ________ you bought your first bicycle or you were awarded a scholarship. When good things happen, we feel excited, proud and happy.

But the problem is, happiness doesn’t usually last. The excitement of that first bicycle purchase wears off, and the pride in the scholarship gives way to the stress of performing (22) ______ (well) on the next exam.

Psychologists call this phenomenon hedonic adaptation (享乐适应症)—that is, (23) _______

________ ________ good something makes us feel, most of the time we drift back to (24) _______ we started. An often (25) __________ (quote) example is that lottery winners are no happier than non-winners eighteen months after their win.

The key to happiness is to not only look for new opportunities but also to make the most of the ones you’ve been given.
