I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Recently,CCTV journalists have approached pedestrians with their cameras,held a microphone to their mouth and asked a simple question :"Are you happy?" The question has caught many interviewees off guard.Even Mo Yan who recently won a Nobel Prize,responded by saying:"I don't know". While the question has become a buzz phrase and the Internet plays host to heated discussions,we ask:What exactly is happiness ?And how do you measure it? In the 1776 US Declaration of Independence,Thomas Jefferson set in writing the people's unalienable right to"Life,Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness".Last year,235 years on,China's Premier Wen Jiabao told the nation:"Everything we do is aimed at letting people live more happily."At last year's National People's Congress,officials agreed that increasing happiness would be a top target for the 12thfive-year plan. US psychologist Ed Diener, author of Happiness:Unlocking the Mysteries of Psychological Wealth describes happiness as "a combination of life satisfaction and having more positive than negative emotions",according to US broadcasting network PBS.This may sound straight forward enough,but it still doesn't explain what determines people's happiness. Many argue that happiness is _ and that there is no single source.It also means different things to different people.For some,happiness can be as simple as having enough cash. Researchers believe happiness can be separated into two types:daily experiences of hedonic well-being;and evaluative well-being, the way people think about their lives as a whole.The former refers to the quality of living,whereas the latter is about overall happiness,including life gods and achievement.Happiness can cross both dimensions. Li Jun,a psychologist and mental therapy practitioner at a Beijing clinic,says:"Happiness can mean both the most basic human satisfaction or the highest level of spiritual pursuit. It' s a simple yet profound topic ." Chen Shangyuan,21,a junior English major at Nanjing University of Aeronautics and...

I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: When you need a job very much, you may end up taking one for which you are over qualified. Although you were initially grateful just to have the work, you now feel bored and depressed. Is there any way to change that? Start by changing your opinion, says Caitlin Kelly, the author of Malled, a book based on her experience as a sales clerk after losing her job in journalism. "Don't focus on what you're not getting but what you are getting," she says. "Be patient and work attentively with a wide range of people. It doesn't matter what the job is -there are always things you can learn and skills you can develop." Hilary Pearl, the founder of a coaching firm, says, "Tell yourself the current situation isn't the end of your career. Don't overdramatize the negative aspects but try to view the situation more philosophically: life has a series of stages, and this is one of them. Don't forget to study even in the worst stage." Consider that because you're overqualified, you may be able to learn or do things on the job that might not have been possible in a more demanding position, says Sarah Hathorn, the chief executive of Illustra Consulting. "You could spend your extra time in learning different aspects of the business and teaching others in the organization," she says. Is it possible to make your work more challenging, even if your job responsibilities aren't likely to change? Of course, you may seek tasks and responsibilities that force you to learn something new or to work harder. "You may be operating on autopilot right now, but chances are that people above you are stressed," Sarah Hathorn says. " _ and let him know which projects or tasks you want to learn more about." Always express your request positively, saying that you love new challenges, rather than complaining that you're bored and underused, says Ethun, the president of the Park Avenue Group. In your down time, educate yourself about the company and its industry. "Read corporate information, analyst reports and related news articles," she says. "If...

I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: "There are no real friends or enemies in the business world". This saying may have been on the minds of bosses at China's main online video providers, Youku.com Inc and Tudou Holdings Ltd, when the one-time rivals agreed to merge on March 12. The deal will create the country's largest company in the online video industry, Youku Tudou Inc. Three months ago, the two companies were involved in a copyright dispute. On December 12, Tudou charged Youku.com with illegally airing the entertainment series,Kangxi is coming. Tudou was the only company which had rights to the series. In response, Youku filed a lawsuit against Tudou, claiming the company was broadcasting more than 50 Youku-owned TV series. According to analysts, the deal came out of the market battle between the two companies. Each spent so much money buying licensed content that they ended up _ last year. "Funding pressures are the main reason for the deal," said Shi Jialong, a Hong Kong-based analyst with CLSA Asia-Pacific Markets. "After the merger, there might be a fall in copyright purchase prices, which is good for the industry in the short term." The new company will face competition from Web portals providing similar services. Youku owned 21.8 percent of Chin's online video market in the last quarter of last year and Tudou 13.7 percent, but Sohu.com followed close on the heels with 13.3 percent, according to domestic research company Analysys International. Some analysts do not feel the deal will secure the market for Youku Tudou. Shi Yu, CEO of media company KU6, said the merger was unlikely to have a "one plus one more than two" effect. In his opinion, video-hosting sites need to find new ways of generation profit to succeed in the market. Question: Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? Options: A: The merge will benefit the online video industry to some degree. B: The two companies spent lots of money building video-hosting sites. C: Youku Tudou Inc currently controls half of the online video market in China. D: The new company has taken charged of all the entertainment series.
