The most popular course at Yale University is Psych 157：Psychology and the Good Life.Taught by Professor Laurie Santos，the course covers the science of happiness and how to apply it.Since its launch in 2018.jye.ai's been taken by a quarter of Yale students and more than 200，000 others in its online version.It clearly shows that，in the busy and noisy modern life，we all have a strong desire for happiness.
Why don't more of us find it.For the complete answer to that，you'll have to take the course（缺少單詞）（It's free）.But in recent New York Times interview，Santos suggested one way among of us often go wrong when seeking happiness.
Many of us are trying to be a little gentler with ourselves and prioritizing self-care.That's a sensible strategy，Santos agrees.The trouble is how people understand "self-care."
"We assume that self-care looks like a nice bubble bath--- or even selfish pursuits."
Santos says. "But the data suggests that the right way to treat ourselves would be to do nice things for other people.We actually get more out of being more open and more social and more other oriented than spending money on ourselves，It's a bigger increase to your happiness."
Santos isn't the only scientist pointing out that，if you want to be happier，you should focus more on kindness to others than kindness to yourself，though sell-acceptance is certainly nice too.Research out of Oxford University confirms that even tiny acts of kindness can have profound effects on out happiness，and other studies show small acts of kindness can ripple out，boosting mental well-being in the wider community.
Kindness isn't just good for your mental health.It's been shown to have a big impact on our physical health too.You'll recover more quickly after a heart attack，for instance，if your boss is supportive and friendly.
All of these effects are rooted in a simple truth：Humans are social creatures and we just function better when we feel connected to a community.

1．Walk Out of the Comfort Zone and Try New Things For most high school students，free periods （課、節(jié)） are useless.From what I have seen，few do homework. （1）
.This makes it impossible for those who actually want to do work to complete any.As a senior next year，I think extra periods should be used to take optional subjects.
（2）.Now is the time for us students to choose a suitable one.We will experiment in different fields of study.We will never know if we are interested or talented in a subject if we don't try it.
In my 8th grade，I was told that I had to take an art class as a graduation requirement；so in the 9th grade I took Studio and Art.One of the projects was to build a clay pot，but I built mine incorrectly，so it broke in the kiln （窯）. （3）.Now I know for sure that I do not want to be an artist.However，the class was one of my favorites that year.I was able to try new activities and test my ability.
（4）!College is when we should focus on a specific major，but high school is when we have to figure it out.
Half of all college students change their major at some point.By doing that hundreds of dollars are wasted on classes that they would have never needed to take.So use our extra periods to find out what we want to do in college. （5）.
A.Our school offers many classes
B.We should find out what we are good at
C.I've avoided anything related to art since then
D.Instead，many are on their phones and talking
E.I found out that I have no artistic ability at all
F.Walk out of our comfort zone and try new things
G.The classes we choose can influence us in the future發(fā)布：2025/1/1 18:0:1組卷：7引用：5難度：0.5 -
