Happiness is important in our life. In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it。

I will never forget one thing. Once, I had a bad mark at a math test. I was shy and afraid to meet my parents. But when I got back home late, my parents knew what happened, they said to me: “It doesn’t matter, my child. Remember we’ll be always beside you when you need help. We believe you can be better next time. Never give up!” I was moved and made up my mind to work harder and harder。

I feel happy. Whenever I am in trouble, I can feel my parents’ love. I want to be a good child for my parents。

My name is Yu Geqin. I’m nine years old. There are three members in my family， my father， my mother and I.

My father is a teacher. He is very handsome. He always wears a pair of glasses. He works very hard. He’s busy from morning to night. He’s the cleverest man of my family. He can solve the difficult problems， too.

My mother is very beautiful. She has two big eyes and her black hair is long. My mother is worker. She is good at her job. She is also a good housewife.

I was then think photographer is a small but indispensable role, wish with all my heart to become a photographer.

When elementary school, the father bought one of the most simple camera, I often excited and curious to play with it. Every weekend, I have time to go to the park to take photos, at the expense of the break time to write my homework, just for Saturday and Sunday can be carefree for photography.

After secondary school, my photography has some increase, also joined the school photography club. Every corporate practice of photography, the spring and autumn period and the swimming, sports, art festival, science festival activities such as I will not waste, will be for each photography earnestly. One day, I suddenly in my subscription to a magazine to see a familiar pictures, that is a picture of me! Im boiling inside. The magazine my photo! I dream a step closer! A whole afternoon, I immersed in happiness and excitement, but I didnt so proud and complacent, because I this result for the dream to become a photographer is only a small step forward, become a photographers dream is still a long way from me.

成长是幸福的，有人因为成长的轻松而感到幸福;有人因为成长的无忧无虑;有人因为成长的快乐而感到幸福。而我因为成长一步一步接近梦想而感到幸福。

我一直有一个远大而并不遥远的梦想，那就是成为一名摄影记者。这个梦想来源于电视上的一个节目，那个节目记录了不同摄影记者的工作过程——战地记者穿过硝烟炮火，记录战争的残酷;娱乐记者挤进拥挤的人群，为众多粉丝们提供明星大咖的众多八卦;新闻记者站在人民大会堂，录下总统，代表们的精彩讲话;专门进行自然摄影的记者们则是冒着各种自然灾害和被动植物伤害的危险记录着大自然的点点滴滴。我当时便觉得摄影记者是一个微小却又不可缺少的角色，一心希望成为一个摄影记者。

小学时，父亲买回来一个最简单的照相机，我经常激动而好奇的玩弄它。每个周末，我为了有时间去公园照相，不惜牺牲课间休息时间去写作业，只为了周六周日可以无忧无虑的进行摄影。

上初中后，我的摄影技术有了一些提高，还加入了学校的摄影社团。每一次社团的摄影练习、春秋游、体育节、艺术节、科技节等活动我都不会浪费，都会认认真真地进行每一次摄影。有一天，我突然在我订阅的一本杂志上看见了一张熟悉的照片，那是我照的照片!我内心沸腾了。我的照片登上杂志了!我离梦想又近了一步!整整一个下午，我沉浸在快乐与兴奋之中，但我并没有因此骄傲和自满，因为我的这一点成绩对于成为摄影记者这个梦想来说还只是前进了一小步，离我成为摄影记者的梦想还很遥远。

我的成长是幸福的，因为我有梦想，更因为我一步一步地接近了我的梦想。梦想就像一座没有“电梯”—捷径的“摩天大楼”，成长就犹如那看不到顶的阶梯，虽然不可能一步登天，但一步一步走上顶楼。也是幸福的，不是吗?

I had a very happy day yesterday. In the morning I played computer games ， that was great! And in the afternoon I went jogging alone and I listened to music. I ate a great dinner at night and went to bed early.

Last year my father lost his job.At that time my parents felt a bit sad.I encouraged my father and said I was old enough and could do something to help.In order to help my parents,I took a part time job on weekends in the KFC near my home.

Luckily,it didnt take long time for my father to find a new job in a company.With the money I earned through working I bought a pair of new shoes for my father to celebrate the good news.My parents were deeply moved.

I said,"We are a happy family whether we are rich or poor.

I have a happy family.Though there is only a little furniture in my home and everything in the rooms seems rather disorderly,I love my home very much.

My father is an engineer,nearly fifty years old.As a Party member,quite often he works late into the night.He even forgets himself when he is reading.Once when having supper,I found that the soup tasted watery.It soon became clear that my father,deep in his reading,had forgotten to put salt in the soup.

I have a kind mother.She is a primary school teacher.She loves her pupils and her job very much and puts all her heart into her work.All our clothes are made by tailors,for she is too busy to sew for us.As a housewife,she has to do almost all the housework.So she is the busiest one in our family.

As students, we can learn a lot of knowledge, this is our happiness. The happiness is to enjoy an easy job to do so, we dont know how to be grateful and cherish it? Cherish these we have, we will be able to live a healthy life, life and light of heart from care to master life, so this is our most precious happiness!

Are You Happy

Two year ago, Chinese biggest TV Channel played an interview which brought great response to the audience. The interview is about a journalist asked a worker that if he felt happy, the worker didnt react what the question is, he answered that he his name is not happy. The interview became hot, everyone was taking about it, "Are you happy" has become a greeting when people meet, they made fun of it. The reason why the interview becomes so popular is that people lack of sense of happiness today, they find a way to make fun of happiness. As the development of technology, people live in a fast-pace lifestyle, the pressure from work is so heavy that people focus too much on work, they dont have time to relax, many people bring the work issues to home, keeping busy all the time. We should find the balance between work and family life, try to enjoy life.

【译文】

你幸福吗

两年以前，中国最大的电视频道播放了一条采访片子，引起了观众的巨大反应。采访是关于一位记者问一位农民工“你幸福吗?”，农民工没反应过来，他说他不叫幸福。这条采访片子很热门，大家都在谈论，“你幸福吗”成为了人们见面时的问候语，成为了一个玩笑。这条采访片子红的原因在于人们对幸福感的缺失， 他们找到了开玩笑的方式。随着科技的发展，人们生活节奏变得很快，工作的压力太大以至于工作投入过多，他们没有时间去放松，很多人把工作事情带回家，一直 工作。我们应该找到工作和家庭生活的平衡点，多享受生活。

Wealth has always been what some people long for. It is true that most of them try to acquire wealth by means of honest labour. Their efforts contribute to the welfare of the society and at the same time to the accumulation of their wealth, and hence to their happiness.

But there are exceptions when wealth does not go hand in hand with happiness. Wealth may tempt weak-willed persons to be addicted to harmful habits, such as drug-taking and gambling, and result in their own ruin. Besides, a person may lose his even some government officials who take advantage of their positions to take bribes from the people turning to them for help. All these will bring about the negative effect of wealth if we don’t take a proper attitude to it.

In my opinion, on no account can we identify wealth with happiness. I also believe that one should never reckon only on wealth to achieve happiness .

财富一直是有些人所渴望的对象。确实，大多数人努力通过诚实的劳动来获取财富。他的努力对造福社会有好处，同时也促进了他们财富的积累，因此也使他们更幸福。

但是当财富脱离了幸福，就会产生各种例外。财富可以促使意志薄弱者养成恶习，如吸毒或赌博，并导致他们自身的毁灭。此外，如果一个人一心追求财富并沉溺于奢侈的生活，他就会失去理智、误入岐途。例如，甚至还有一些政府官员利用他们的职位向求助者索贿。所有这些都会产生财富的负面效应，如果我们不能正确对待财富的话。

依我看，无论如何我们也不能把财富和幸福等同起来。我还认为人们永远也不应该只依仗财富去获得幸福。

Happiness exists everywhere. Everyone has different definitions of happiness.幸福存在于每个地方。每个人对幸福的定义都不同。

Some people think possessing a great deal of money is the secret to happiness, while others feel giving aid to others makes them happy. I approve of the latter.有的人认为拥有大笔钱是幸福的秘诀，而有的人感觉给予别人帮助会让自己感到幸福。我同意后者。

There are many poor people in our society, and we can contribute some money to charities to help them. When the poor receive our assistance, their lives will be improved. Smiles will appear on their faces, and this is the best reward we can get from helping others. When we see their happy smiles, we will be happy as well.社会中有很多穷人，我们可以捐一些钱到慈善机构帮助他们。当那些穷人得到帮助的时候，他们的生活会得到改善。他们的脸上会充满微笑，这也是我们帮助他们所得到的最好的回报。当我们看到他们快乐的笑容，我们也会感到很幸福。

So I think that true happiness comes from the heart.所以我认为真正的幸福来自我们的内心。

小作者通过写给予别人帮助所得到的快乐，说明真正的幸福来自内心，而并非金钱。

[幸福英语作文及翻译

It is an oft repeated axiom that money cannot buy happiness. While this is certainly true, poverty will not buy Happiness either. Some people become very wealthy, yet struggle to enjoy their lives. On the other hand, others manage to go through life with very few money problems simply because they are able to make the most of what they have.Ideally you should try to combine both prosperity and Happiness. To do this I recommend the following steps:

1. Learn to Value Simplicity The aim of life should not be to accumulate as many possessions and as much wealth as possible. We should learn to be content with what we have and appreciate the benefits of simplicity. For example, if we clear out our unnecessary clutter we will achieve a greater feeling of space and freedom.

If you feel happiness is directly related to material possessions, you are making a mistake. Happiness can be gained just through being content with a small amount of possessions. Our inner wealth is not just about what we have, but what we are content to live without.

2. Do Not Be Attached to Your Money Does it pain you to spend your own money - even if it is for something useful? Even someone like Bill Gates can feel uncomfortable spending his billions; it is said he used to always travel economy class because he didn’t see the need to spend more money on first class. The problem with this, however, is that if we are always reluctant to spend money we miss the whole point of earning it.

A good attitude is to see money as a circular flow - that is, spending money enables more to come into our lives. It is not like a big dam where we just try to hold onto it all. We need to let the money out by spending on useful and necessary things. It is no good having a stockpile of water unless we use it to generate power; similarly it is no use accumulating large savings if we we feel miserable spending it.

3. Minimize Money Worries We will be happiest if we can make money a small part of our lives, and think about money issues as little as possible. To be able to do this we need to avoid creating situations of debt as getting out of debt can be difficult and stressful. Learn to live within your means by avoiding impulsive overspending. If you do need to go into debt, plan ahead and find a loan which is clear and manageable to repay.

Try to avoid complicated and risky investment plans; these give you the potential to gain more, but you will also have the potential to lose a lot more. Good financial planning should be simple and well balanced; this means your nerves will not be affected by worrying about the outcome of your investment. It is better to invest and save in something secure so you can forget about it and not worry endlessly.

4. Avoid Jealousy No matter how much money you have, do you still envy people who have more? A recent survey asked people whether they would prefer to have a salary above the national average. Alternatively, they could choose to have a higher salary, but this higher salary would be lower than the average. A surprising amount of people chose to have a lower salary as long as it meant they were relatively better off than the rest of the population.

To me this makes no sense. If other people become wealthier than you, that is no reason to be unhappy. If other people are prosperous that is good; don’t feel miserable just because you cannot keep up with the Joneses.

5. Don’t Live to Work. Do you find yourself working overtime in the evenings and at the weekend? If you spend all your time working, you will have no opportunity to spend your earnings. Don’t feel guilty for turning extra work down; it is important to give leisure time as high a priority as work. It is good if we can gain satisfaction from work, but if we only spend time working then our life lacks a proper balance.

6. Understand Why Are Some People Always Poor I’m sure most people will have good friends who always seems to have money concerns. No matter what happens they always seem to be short of money and they frequently share tales of financial woe. The lack of money makes them unhappy, but they don’t know how to change the situation. Giving them money doesn’t solve the problem because they continue to make bad financial decisions.

Part of the problem lies in their mindset. It is easy to become accustomed to being poor and then half expecting the poverty to continue. With this mindset, it becomes difficult to attract money into our lives and easy to develop feelings of self pity and regret. However, while we might be unfortunate it won’t do anything to resolve the situation. The secret is to try and change our habits and approach to money. Also, be wary about trying to convert others to better financial habits - it is almost guaranteed to fail.

7. Ignorance is Not Bliss Another attitude to money is to try and avoid thinking about it. We ignore the true extent of our debts, spending and leaving unpaid bills. We frequently miss out on moving to better financial deals and make late payments which harm our credit rating. By ignoring money like this, we merely create more serious problems for the future.

Also, when we put off dealing with financial problems we carry the problem in the back of our mind. We can get no peace of mind because we permanently have a long list of things to deal with. It is better in these circumstances to promptly deal with things like paying bills and sorting out your accounts - then we can forget about them.

8. Develop A New Perspective The following are some money related questions you should ask yourself:

Am I happy with my financial situation? Would more money make my life better? Do I always have financial problems hanging over my head? Is money the most important thing in my life? Is the pursuit of money making me miserable? Would I sacrifice principles to make more money? Even just answering these questions honestly may encourage a new perspective towards money.

in recent years, researchers have attempted to use a variety of statistics and surveys to answer a question thats occupied countless generations of philosophers: what makes us truly happy?

Can Money Buy Happiness？

范文：

Can money buy happiness? Various people have various answers. Some people think that money is the source of happiness. With money, one can buy whatever he enjoys. With money, one can do whatever he likes. So, in their minds, money can bring comfort, security, and so on. Money, as they think, is the source of happiness.

But there are still a lot of others who think that money is the root of all evil. Money drives people to steal, to rob, and to break the law. A lot of people became criminals just because they were in search of money. And in the Western countries, there is nothing that cant be bought by money. Many people lose their own lives when hunting it.

I think that money is essential to life and we cannot do without money. But even though money is necessary to life, it cant buy happiness. Happiness is not something that can be measured by money. It is a state of mind. One can have plenty of money, with which he can buy whatever he wants, and at the same time he is not happy because he is never satisfied or he is troubled by various kinds of problems. Therefore, although money is necessary for a happy life, it cant buy happiness.
