Long long ago, in a small, faraway village, there was a place called the House of 1000 Mirrors(镜子). A small, happy little dog heard of this place and decided to visit. When he arrived, he bounced(弹跳)1up to the doorway of the house. He looked at the mirrors with his ears lifted(竖起)high and his tail wagging(摇摆)as fast as it could. To his great2, he found himself staring(盯着看)at 1000 other happy little3with their tails wagging just as fast as his. He smiled a great smile, and was answered with 1000 great4just as warm and friendly as his. As he left the House, he thought to himself, "This is a5place. I will come back and visit it often."
In the same village, another little dog, who was always unhappy, decided to visit the house, too. He walked slowly and put his head low(低的. When he looked at the6, he saw the 10007dogs staring back at him. He barked(吠叫)at them and then saw 1000 little dogs barking8at him. As he left, he told himself, "This is a terrible place, and I will9go back here again."10is just like a mirror, you smile at it, it smiles back.
One day, 50 students were listening to a speech about happiness(幸福).The teacher stopped his speech and asked all the students to take part in an activity. He gave everyone a balloon(气球)and asked them to write their names on the balloons with a black marker(马克笔). After that, all the balloons were collected and moved to another room. Then the students went into the room to find their own(自己的)balloons which had their names on within five minutes. Everyone rushed around, looking for their balloons here and there. They bumped into and tripped (绊倒) over each other. But most of them couldn't find their own balloons.
After seeing this, the teacher asked each student to pick up a balloon call the name on it, try to find the owner of the balloon. A few minutes later, everyone found her or his own balloon.
The teacher said "The balloons are like the happiness we want. Everyone is busy looking for their own happiness, not caring about others. But sometimes the best way to find happiness is to help others. Help them find happiness and you can find your own."
