Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. Aristotle, a Greek thinker, said, “Happiness depends upon ourselves.” In other words, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.
The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future —for example, getting into college or getting a good job —that we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life’s simple pleasure, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.
Another secret to living a happy life is to be active, and have hobbies where you forget your problems and time. Many people experience this dancing, or playing a sport, such as swimming. You can forget about your problems, and only think about the activity.
Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, do good things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping to buy food for an elderly person, or simply help out around the house by washing the dishes.The best title（标题）of the passage is ________.

Hello! I’m John. Now I’m in a health club. I’m interviewing four students who joined the club.
My name is David. Good health makes me feel great and helps me study well. I come here on Tuesdays and Fridays. I exercise for thirty minutes each time.
I’m Alice. I am heavy. So I come here to exercise. I come here three times a week and spend thirty minutes each time. Now I look healthy.
I’m Ann. I have lots of homework to do every day. I think exercise can make me relaxed and help me study well. Although I am very busy every day, I spend forty minutes here.
I’m Bill. I always wanted to sleep in class, although I slept nine hours each night. The doctor asked me to do more exercise. So I come here and do exercise for twenty minutes each day. I find that I’m energetic now and I don’t sleep in class any more.
