Emm Nadeem:
Your article on happiness lifted my spirits. There is one very interesting aspect to note: the eight steps to happiness listed on pages 32-33 may as well be translations of the values of our cultural tradition. If people would see our values from these aspects, there would be no misunderstanding—only happiness.
Sander Tideman:
I applaud your special on the science of happiness. However, the issue would have been more complete had it mentioned the idea, of viewing economic development policies in the context of " gross national happiness" or GNH. This concept is based on the recognition that gross national product does not accurately reflect the well-being of a nation. GNH is a bold idea with far-reaching effects. Since happiness has a scientific base, it can be developed and promoted on a larger social scale.
Paul Aboh:
Happiness is a gift, not a commodity. Even the poor have the ability to cultivate and share happiness. We can find pleasure in the small things we often take for granted-a smile, a helping hand, a kiss, a wave, a pat on the back, a glass of water and a promise kept. And when you discover its source, you know it. Sometimes happiness overflows, but it never destroys.
Mansoor Malik
Happiness is not a product of achievement or wealth or fame. It is the reaction of our mind to the environment. Faith in the values of our long-cherished cultural tradition is a source of well-being. Happiness comes from caring for others and giving whatever we can—help, hope, love, respect, sympathy or just a smile.
Peter Fischer
At a time when there seem to be so many reasons for being unhappy, I appreciated your special report on happiness. Surely the poorest kids in Africa who are without parents and are often hungry are the ones with the most reasons to be unhappy. What can possibly make them smile? As your article pointed out, however, we cannot wait for enough friends or a lot of money to make us happy. We have an amazing capacity to set ourselves right.
Statements
[A] A rich person is not necessarily happy.
[B] Things people often overlook may be the very source of happiness.
[C] Happiness can be promoted on a scientific basis.
[D] We should mainly rely on ourselves for happiness.
[E] Happiness lies in giving instead of taking.
[F] The environment is a source of happiness.
[G] Happiness can be achieved if we stick to the best of our values.

在我国古代,名、字与号是有区别的:前者由父亲或尊长取定,后者由自己取定。字是为了便于他人称谓,对平辈或尊辈称字出于礼貌和尊敬;号又叫别号、表号,一般只用于自称,以显示某种志趣或抒发某种情感;对人称号也是一种敬称。下列选项中属于“号”的是()。
