[1] Many people spend a lot of time making money because they believe the money itself will make them happy, or will guard them against things that will make them unhappy.They make great efforts to achieve that perfect relationship, the perfect house, the beautiful body, the approval of others, all in an attempt to be happy.

[2] Sometimes these things make people happy; other times, people stress over not having reached the goals, or reach them and find they’re still unhappy.Other times, people focus on just one goal and don’t have time for other things that will make them truly happy.

[3] Some experts studying human happiness and the factors that contribute to it have identified several key areas of life that seem to be more related to personal happiness.Some of them are the things like money, friends, health and living conditions; others are things you may not think of in your daily life, such as your neighborhood and sense of meaning in life.

请阅读下面某高三学生写给编辑的一封短信,然后根据要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

Dear editor.

  I used to imagine the beautiful school life without any pressure, in the beautiful camps like heaven; we experienced lots of new things and enjoyed our youth.At that time I was really happy, even though what we did every day was just sinking ourselves in the boring books.

  But, I knew I was totally wrong after I came to senior three.We were overloaded with various assignments; we had to memorize a lot of difficult English words so as to achieve higher scores on the exams.In addition, for the sake of our future, we had to take the coursed not only in our own major but also in some related fields.We felt that once we slowed down, we might fall into a low position in class.Too much pressure has injured our mental and physical health as we suffer from nervousness, tiredness, sleeplessness and depression.Many of us have tried very hard at school but they failed in certain examinations and have disappointed their parents.Such students feel that they are less important than everyone else they meet and leave school before they have finished their study.I am just very upset with the present situation and I don’t know what I should do.

Yours sincerely
