After an hour“s flight, one of the scientists wrote in his book, “Look

2、 here for probable metal.“ Scientists in another airplane, flying over a mountain area, sent a message to other scientists on the ground, “Gold possible.“ Walking across hilly ground, four scientists reported, “This ground should be searched for metal.“ From an airplane over a hilly wasteland a scie

3、ntist sent back by radio one word: “Uranium.“ None of the scientists had X-ray eyes: they had no magic power of looking down below the earth“s surface. They were merely putting to use one of the newest methods of locating minerals in the ground.trees and plants as signs that certain minerals may lie

4、 beneath the ground on which the trees and plants are growing. This newest method of searching for minerals is based on the fact that minerals deep in the earth may affect the kind of bushes and trees that grow in the surface. At Watson Bar Greek, a brook(小溪) six thousand feet high in the mountains

5、of British Columbia, Canada, a mineral search group gathered bags of tree seeds. Boxes were filled with small branches from the trees. Roots were dug and put into boxes. Each bag and box was carefully marked. In a scientific laboratory, the parts of the forest trees were burned to ashes and tested.

6、Each small part was examined to learn whether there were minerals in it. Study of the roots, branches, and seeds showed no silver. But there were small amounts of gold in the roots and a little less gold in the branches and seeds. The seeds growing nearest to the tree trunks had more gold than those

11、ork. He may have the idea that he is not capable of it.

14、 not expect too much of him. In this way, they too developed the idea, “Isn“t it too bad that Alfred can“t do arithmetic?“ He accepted their mistaken estimate of his ability, felt that it was useless to try, and was very poor at arithmetic, just as they expected. One day, Adler succeeded in solving

15、a problem which none of the other students had been able to solve. This gave him confidence. He rejected the idea that he couldn“t do arithmetic and was determined to show them that he could. His newly found confidence stimulated him to go at arithmetic problems with a new spirit. He now worked with

16、 interest, determination and purpose, and he soon became extraordinarily good at arithmetic. This experience made him realize that many people have more ability than they think they have, and that lack of success is as often the result of lack of knowledge of how to apply one“s ability, lack of conf

However, the issue would have beer, more complete had it mentioned the idea of viewing economic development policies in the context of “gross national happiness“ or GNH. Thi

23、s concept is based on the recognition that gross national product does not accurately reflect the well-being of a nation. GNH is a bold idea with far-reaching effects.

24、t a commodity. Even the poor have the ability to cultivate and share happiness. We can find pleasure in the small things we often take for granted-a smile, a helping hand, a kiss, a wave, a pat on the back, a glass of water and a promise kept. And when you discover its source, you know it. Sometimes

25、 happiness overflows, but it never destroys. Mansoor Malik: Happiness is not a product of achievement or wealth or fame. It is the reaction of our mind to the environment.
