I feel happy when I'm with my family. My parents never compare me with other kids. My mum will say "well done" or "thank you" if! help to do the housework. I especially like my brother. I still remember when I was eight, I had a bad stomachache. My parents were not at home, so it was my brother, then 14, that took me to the hospital. For me, happiness has nothing to do with money. Having a loving and caring family is enough.

I feel happy while trying to help others. Last year, I visited a special school for students with weak sight or hearing loss(丧失). It is difficult for them to write and read pinyin, so I taught them over and over. For over 3 hours, we repeated the same work, but we didn't feel tired. As an old saying goes, "The rose is in her hand, the flavour in mine."

I feel happy when I hang out with my friends and do something together. Last winter, three friends and I performed an original(原创的) song at a school party. At first, we wrote down how we felt about each other. Then, we corrected our mistakes and practised. Finally, when we sang in the arena(舞台), the audience(观众) were excited. For me, happiness is doing something that I love with like-minded(志趣相投的) people.
