&&& We all think we know what happiness is. We all seem to be making great efforts towards this goal of happiness but what is it really? It is an agreed fact that all the creatures want happiness and are afraid of pain and sadness. The question, however, is “What is real happiness?” What really is called happiness? The desire for happiness has no meaning without understanding the real nature of happiness.&&& Some thinkers say, “Happiness does not lie in obj happiness or unhappiness lies in imagination.” To prove their belief, they give examples like the following one: A man has a two- on the right is a five-storey building and on the left a cottage. When he sees right, he feels unhappy and when he sees left he feels happy. As such happiness does not lie in possession of sensory objects, but in imagination. They advise people to look towards those who have fewer possessions and be happy. If you look towards people having more wealth, you will always be unhappy.&&& It is unreasonable to hold this point of view. It is unkind to regard one happy by imagining that one is better than the poor and the unhappy. “If you want to be happy, look towards the poor.” We know that those poor people cannot satisfy even their basic needs. This attitude satisfies the sense of pride of possession, but this can never be called happiness. Unless we really find where happiness lies, we cannot really be happy.&&& Some ask people to do this and do that and say, “This way your desire will be satisfied. You would get the desired objects and become happy.” People holding these views regard happiness as satisfaction of desires. But it is not possible to satisfy one’s desires because there are countless desires of countless people and the material things are limited. Then new desires arise as soon as the previous ones are satisfied. Therefore, desires, which are changing all the time, can never be satisfied.&&& Happiness is a characteristic of a good life, that is, a life in which a person fulfills human nature in an excellent way. People have a set of purposes which are typically human: these belong to our nature. Happiness is also a condition that must be prepared for, cultivated, and defended privately by each person. People who learn to control inner experience will be able to determine the quality of their lives and come to being happy. Happiness lies in the distribution of easiness among others. Happiness stands for forgiveness and justice. Happiness is the name of struggle and courage.&&&& Happiness may be founded in seeking of true knowledge and rule of wisdom. Happiness may be shared in service and duty. This life is combination of joys and sorrows, and honest efforts should be done to make this life journey full of happiness, love, peace and harmony.50.

&&& We all think we know what happiness is. We all seem to be making great efforts towards this goal of happiness but what is it really? It is an agreed fact that all the creatures want happiness and are afraid of pain and sadness. The question, however, is “What is real happiness?” What really is called happiness? The desire for happiness has no meaning without understanding the real nature of happiness.
我们都认为我们知道幸福是什么。我们似乎都朝着这个目标努力，但幸福到底是什么？这是一个事实，所有的生物都同意要幸福和害怕的痛苦和悲伤。然而，问题是，“什么是真正的幸福？“什么是幸福？幸福的愿望没有意义没有理解幸福的真正本质。
Some thinkers say, “Happiness does not lie in obj happiness or unhappiness lies in imagination.” To prove their belief, they give examples like the following one: A man has a two- on the right is a five-storey building and on the left a cottage. When he sees right, he feels unhappy and when he sees left he feels happy. As such happiness does not lie in possession of sensory objects, but in imagination. They advise people to look towards those who have fewer possessions and be happy. If you look towards people having more wealth, you will always be unhappy.
一些学者说，“幸福不在于反对快乐；快乐或不快乐在于想象力。”来证明他们的信仰，他们给的例子如下：一个人有一二层高的房子；右边是一五层楼，左边的小屋。当他看到了吧，他觉得很不高兴，当他看到他离开感到高兴。这样的幸福不在于拥有感官对象，但在想象。他们建议人们期待那些有较少的财富和快乐。如果你期待有更多的财富的人，你将永远不快乐。
It is unreasonable to hold this point of view. It is unkind to regard one happy by imagining that one is better than the poor and the unhappy. “If you want to be happy, look towards the poor.” We know that those poor people cannot satisfy even their basic needs. This attitude satisfies the sense of pride of possession, but this can never be called happiness. Unless we really find where happiness lies, we cannot really be happy.
持有这种观点是不合理的。它是以一个愉快的想象，一个比穷人和不幸的无情。“如果你想要快乐，朝向差。“我们知道那些可怜的人不能满足他们的基本需求。这种态度满足占有的骄傲感，但这不能被称为幸福。除非我们找到真正的幸福所在，我们不能真正的快乐。
Some ask people to do this and do that and say, “This way your desire will be satisfied. You would get the desired objects and become happy.” People holding these views regard happiness as satisfaction of desires. But it is not possible to satisfy one’s desires because there are countless desires of countless people and the material things are limited. Then new desires arise as soon as the previous ones are satisfied. Therefore, desires, which are changing all the time, can never be satisfied.
有人问的人做这做那，说，“这样你的渴望会满意的。你会得到所需的对象，成为快乐。“人们持有这些观点把幸福作为欲望的满足。但它是不可能满足你的欲望因为有无数人无数的欲望和物质的东西是有限的。然后，新的欲望就出现以前的满意。因此，欲望，它是在不断地变化，就决不会满意。
Happiness is a characteristic of a good life, that is, a life in which a person fulfills human nature in an excellent way. People have a set of purposes which are typically human: these belong to our nature. Happiness is also a condition that must be prepared for, cultivated, and defended privately by each person. People who learn to control inner experience will be able to determine the quality of their lives and come to being happy. Happiness lies in the distribution of easiness among others. Happiness stands for forgiveness and justice. Happiness is the name of struggle and courage. Happiness may be founded in seeking of true knowledge and rule of wisdom. Happiness may be shared in service and duty. This life is combination of joys and sorrows, and honest efforts should be done to make this life journey full of happiness, love, peace and harmony.
幸福是一种很好的生活，这是一个特点，生活在其中的人满足人性的一个很好的方式。人有一套，通常是人类的目的：这些属于我们的天性。快乐也是一种条件，必须做好准备，耕地，保护私人的每个人。人要学会控制内心的体验将能够确定他们的生活质量和幸福。幸福在于从容其中分布。幸福是宽容和正义。幸福是挣扎和勇气的名字。幸福是建立在智慧的真正的知识和规律，寻求。幸福是可以共享的服务和责任。这是人生的悲欢离合的组合，和诚实的应该做的努力使生活充满幸福的旅程，爱，和平与和谐。

扫描下载二维码选择 2.The newly-built library is a ______ building.A.five-storey B.Five storeys C.Five-storey’s D.Five storeys’为什么选A不选C?
本吧wan941
five-story 是building的修饰,一个五层的楼’s 指的是所属关系,如果选C就变成“楼”是属于“五层”的了,逻辑上不通了.虽然汉语都翻译成五层“的”楼,但是逻辑关系不一样O(∩_∩)O~

因为用连字符链接的两个名词就叫做复合形容词的，本身就是。。。的意思，不需要’s（名词所有格）的。
五层的.有两种:a five-story
building a
building of
five stories. 是复数的.
用连子符把两个词连起来相当于一个形容词。如果再用所有格就多了一个“的”了。
