this question, most people would say no. They don't think they
are the happiest of the people around them. They would point
out that one of their neighbors is happier than any one of
them, Frank has a career himself. His wife is the most
beautiful and well-educated lady in the community. No, I don't
think I am happier than Doctor Frank. At least my career is
not as successful as his.
Most of us compare ourselves with anyone we think is
happier - a relative, a close friend or, often, someone we
even hardly know.I once met a young man who struck me as
particularly successful and happy. He spoke of his love for
his beautiful wife and their daughters, and of his joy at being
a TV talk-show host.I remember thinking he was one of the lucky
few for whom everything goes effortlessly we

talked about the Internet, he is grateful for its existence.
He told me, because he could look up information on
diabetes(糖尿病) - the terrible disease that made his wife
suffer and could possibly be passed down to his lovely
children. When I heard this, I felt like a fool for taking
it for granted that nothing unhappy existed in his life.
This made me think a lot and I soon drew one of the most
significant conclusions about happiness: there is little
relation between the situations of people's lives and how
happy they are. We all know people who are richer and have
an easier life than others, yet they are essentially
we know people who have suffered a great deal but
generally remain iness is like looking at
something and fixing on even the smallest fault. As a bald
man told me,
It is hard for us to give up the image of perfect.

courage or effort to be unhappy. True happiness lies in
struggling to be happy.

Sample:
The Internet has become a symbol of modern
society. For example, via the Internet, we can send
a message to a friend or a relative in a distant place
within seconds; we can talk to each other or even see
each other; we can do shopping without going out; we
can stay home and do business with foreign
fact, we can do many things more easily
and more cheaply using the Internet. So, I cannot
imagine what society would be like without the
Internet.
