Nowadays, the term " sense of happiness" has been repeatedly mentioned in various medias.

" I would say I'm pretty happy at present because my dear daughter has graduated from college and found herself a decent job. " said a woman in her fifties with a big smile on her face.

Though it seemed that most people said they were happy, different voices were still heard and should not be ignored. There was a migrant worker(农民工) whose answer to the question was widely spread online. When asked if he was happy, he said " My family name is Zeng", showing his determination to refuse the intervie w as well as his annoyance to  mention happiness.

During this National Day holidays, free passage was given to cars on the highway for the first time ever, which caused a heated discussion nationwide. On the bright side, some believe that it is good to stimulate consumption and boost the third industry, such as tourism. To some extent, this policy also brings people closer, for those who were reluctant to visit their friends are totally seduced and willing to reunite by car. However, with cars flocking to the highways, others are concerned that the traffic flow will increase tremendously, resulting in worse traffic jam and higher accident rate than ever before. Personally, free passage is what the public have been longing for, but more following measures should be taken, for example, some contingency plans should be made to deal with the potential problems and more clear road signs are needed to give drivers precise guidance.

When asked by the CCTV whether they were happy, most people gave a positive answer while some didn't. The Nobel Prize winner Mo Yan said he didn't know whether he was happy or not.

At present, I am pretty happy because I am doing what I like and I like what I am doing. As a senior three student, I study hard every day and live it to the fullest. It feels good to study hard with my determined classmates to fulfill our dreams.

When I recall the happy things which happened to me, the experience of my receiving the scholarship in middle school topped them all. It was a time when my family was going through the extreme financial difficulties. So I made up my mind to win the scholarship, hoping to lighten my parents' financial burden. After making tons of painstaking efforts, I succeeded. At the ceremony, I could see my mom was the most poorly-dressed woman, yet with the brightest smile on her face. It was the happiest thing ever happening to me that I will treasure for the rest of my life.

As far as I am concerned, happiness lies in the effort of making those we love smile. When we bring happiness to them, it gives happiness to ourselves.
