15、n, we started to look for somewhere to sleep. We finally found an old railwaybuilding, which looked as if it might keep us safe from bears. Though the windows and doors hadlarge scratch and chew marks, they were covered with boards and looked safe. Annabel wentupstairs and started to unpack and sett

16、le in while I looked around downstairs.I was moving around in what was once clearly a kitchen, when, from out of a darkened doorway thatI took to the storeroom, came a soft but unusual deep moan（ 呻吟 ）.

23、circle offriends ” of WeChat.However, these scenes cannot always ease a sense of loneliness. Zhu Ziqing, a well- knownprofessor of Tsinghua University, signed with emotion:“Myloneliness increases as scene becomes much busier. ” One popular song today is also called “Alonely man in crowds. ” Actually

24、, engaging in social intercourse requires ability, while being aloneinvolves the whole character.These days, it is not easy to calm down totally and return to ones trueself.

25、s the possibility of whether you will besuccessful or not.” The “spare time ” he referred tocould be taken as “spending time by yourself.”Lonely life could be either dull, boring and tasteless or abundant, interesting and colorful, dependingon ones quality, ambition andinspiration.Just as the body c

31、ss. But getting older is not all badfor many people. Mounting evidence suggests aging may be a key to happiness. There is conflictingresearch on the subject, however, and experts say it may all boil down to this: Attitude is everything.Older adults tend to be more optimistic and have a more positive

32、 outlook on life than their youngerand stressed opposites. The big question is why seniors are happier. A recent study suggests onereason: Older adults remember the past through happy memories. Aging can bring more cheer aspeople become more comfortable with themselves and their roles in society. Th

33、e older adults saidthey were enjoying more time with their family, spending more time on hobbies and having greaterfinancial security and did not have to work.But others are doubtful about the link between happiness and growing older.

Research by the University of Chicago s Yang suggests that attitude about life andhappiness, is partly shaped by the era in which a person was born. It turns out that individuals whoadapt the best to changes also have

37、 the highest expected levels of happiness.Despite the conflicting findings about aging and happiness, the good news is that there doesn tappear to be a limit to how much happiness one can achieve in one s life. “ Most people desirehappiness, ” Easterlin said. “To myknowledge, no on e has identified
