試題詳情
The World Happiness Report，a United Nations agency report，measures（估量）how happy people are，and why.Norway is the happiest place on Earth - beating neighbour Denmark from the number one position.
Denmark，Iceland，Switzerland and Finland round out the top five，while the Central African Republic came last.Western Europe and North America took up most of the places at the top of table，with the US and UK at 14th and 19th.
The World Happiness Report mainly depends on asking a simple question of more than 1，000 people every year in more than 150 countries. "Imagine a ladder（梯子），with steps numbered from 0 at the bottom to 10 at the top， " the question asks， "The top of the ladder is the best possible life for you and the bottom of the ladder is the worst possible life for you.On which step of the ladder would you say you personally feel you stand at this time？"
The average result is the country's score - from Norway's 7.54 to the Central African Republic's 2.69.But the report also tries to explain why one country is happier than another.It looks at reasons including economic strength （經(jīng)濟(jì)實(shí)力），social support，freedom of choice，and generosity.
This year's report also has a text titled "restoring （恢復(fù)）American happiness"，which examines why happiness levels in the United States are falling，despite continually-increasing economic improvement. "The United States can and should raise happiness by solving America's social problems - rising inequality and distrust - rather than focusing mainly on economic growth， " the authors said.
Jeffrey Sachs，the director of the Sustainable Development Solutions Network，which published the report，said President Donald Trump's policies were likely to make things worse.

1．Each year on Halloween，children look forward to trick-or-treating （不請(qǐng)客就搗亂） for candies．But for some kids，eating Halloween candies can be dangerous．
That's because one out of every 13 kids in the Us have a food allergy（過(guò)敏癥）．They are allergic to ingredients（成分）in many Halloween candies，such as peanuts，tree nuts，milk，eggs，and beans．If they eat these foods，they will get sick or even die．
"I had to throw away all my candies with tears，" eight-year-old Conlen said．Conlen is allergic to peanuts，tree nuts，and dairy．Twelve-year-old Kylie is allergic to peanuts and tree nuts．She has been trick-or-treating only twice． "I brought my candies home and gave them to the neighbors，" Kylie said． "It felt terrible．"
But this year，Conlen，Kylie and other kids with food allergies will have a chance for a happy Halloween．That's because nearly 100，000 households across the US have promised to take part in the Teal Pumpkin Project（TPP），which was started last year by Food Allergy Research & Education（FARE）．FARE is an organization that works to improve the lives of people with food allergies．Through the project，the households agree to have nonfood items for trick-or-treaters，including trinkets（小飾品） and toys．
To take part in the project，people buy a teal（藍(lán)綠色） pumpkin or paint a pumpkin teal and place it in front of their house．The painted pumpkins let trick-or-treaters know that nonfood items are available there．The households also add their home addresses to an online map，making it easier for trick-or-treaters to find them．
Kylie loves the idea．"The TPP makes Halloween fun and safe，" she said．"It makes me feel like a normal kid，and it makes everyone feel included．"

3．Besides the excitement of travel，one reason to study abroad is that you will experience new customs，holidays，foods，art，music，and politics first-hand.
"I learned the language and am now fluent，but perhaps what's more important is how much I learned about cultures，people，and myself.I learned this from the viewpoint of an active member of the community and my host family，not from the tourist's point of view，" says Andrew，who studied in Poitiers，F(xiàn)rance.
Another reason for studying abroad is that you'll gain self-confidence.Christina studied in Caracas，Venezuela，a city of more than 3 million people and a huge change from her hometown of 35，000!Christina says she learned how to better stand up for herself and her beliefs and to express herself in another language.What could make you more confident than that？
Living away from home can also help you adjust in the transition（過(guò)渡）to college and adulthood.Mathew says he returned from studying in Australia with confidence and a real interest in international affairs that made him different from his peers（同齡人）. "After having gone abroad in high school，I found the transition to college a breeze—moving 560 miles from home didn't seem particularly frightening after having lived thousands of miles away."
Most of all，it's fun while you're studying in a different learning environment.
