school.Yet a school in G ermany has developed a novel way to raise the morale of its students,by teaching happiness in classes.Students at 4Heidelberg,s Willy Hellpach School of Economics are learning how to achieve happiness as an official subject,alongside mathematics and languages.This is the first school in G ermany to develop a happiness course,intended for 17-to 19-year-olds preparing for university entrance exams.Ernst Fritz-Schubert,the school?s principal,is on a mission to change things.Ernst Fritz-Schubert:It was my idea-I,ve been at this school for 31 years,and I feel that school and happiness have to be reunited.These are two terms which are not considered together,because one does not connect school with happiness.In some cases school comes behind the dentists on the popularity scale and we should try to push schoolsJ popularity a bit.It has been proved by science that a happy student can learn more than an unhappy one,Unhappy students can concentrate for a while but do not use all their potential.The happiness classes are intended to help students fulfill their potential.They will help the students live happy and prosperous lives.The classes aim to help students in achieving a positive state of mind,by using all their own resources and boosting their self-esteem.In addition,they hope classes will increase self-awareness and physical comfort.Happiness classes are also intended to make students more aware about their environment and society as a whole.During classes students are encouraged to express themselves and observe their peers behavior.The classes are taught by Bjoern Bonn,an actor and visiting lecturer.Bjoern Bonn:One of the exercises I do is to have one of the students walk across the classroom,with the others copying his walk.Through this exercise,I hope they learn something about themselves.Why do I move like this?How do others see my way of walking?I hope that with a higher body 5awareness they ideally-of course it will take time-achieve a higher self-consciousness which could lead to happiness.Wolfgang L ang:We give these classes to students to help them find happiness.Now the question is:How do I define happiness?Happiness is for example a strengthening of the personality.We are providing helpful suggestions to make stronger people.P eople that ask“Who am I as a person?Am I really happy?nP ascal G emble:It takes time and everybody has to find happiness for themselves.You cannot go into a coaching lesson and say teach me happiness.One can only get indications from teachers or the visiting lecturers.There are also happiness scientists,if we could talk to one of those,I am sure he would have some hints.Yosma P inar Cetinkaya:You would think that the teachers are writing definitions on the board.Not true.Those who want happiness have to find it for themselves,you cannot really learn that.So what does it take to be happy and can you learn it at school?当学生想起学校，快乐不是多数人想到的。目前，德国一所学校已经创造了 一种新颖的通过在课堂上教授快乐的方法来提升其学生们的精神面貌。Heidelberg s Willy Hellpach School of Economics 正在研究怎样将快乐实 现为与数学和语言一样的官方课程。这是德国第一家开设快乐课程的学校，意欲 为17至19岁的学生作高考的准备。Ernst Fritz-Schubert,学校的校长，肩负着变革的使命。Ernst Fritz-Schubert：“这是我的想法一我已经在这所学校呆了 31年，我 认为学校和快乐必须被重组，这是不被认为该在一起的两部分，因为学生不把学 校与快乐联系起来。在某些情况下，学校在受欢迎程度上落后于牙医，我们应该 努力推动学校的受欢迎度。科学已经证明一个快乐的学生能比一个不快乐的学生学到更多。不快乐的 学生能在一段时间内集中注意力，但不能发挥他们所有的潜力，这些快乐课程致 6力于帮助学生发挥他们的潜能，能帮学生生活在快乐繁荣的生活中。”这种课程旨在帮助学生们通过用他们自己的特长和激励他们的自尊来达到 思想的积极状态。另外，他们希望课程会增加自觉意识和身体素质，快乐课程还 致力于让学生意识到环境与社会是作为一个整体存在。课堂期间学生被鼓励表达 自我和关注同伴的行为，课程由演员和客座讲师Bjoern Borm讲授。Bjoern Bonn：“我做的其中一个练习是让学生走过教室，其他学生模仿他的 步伐。通过这个练习，我希望他们从自己身上学得一些东西为什么我像这样行 动？其他人怎样评价我走路的方式？我希望伴随着更高的身体意识他们原则上 当然这需要时间实现更高的抵达快乐的自我意识。”Wolfgang L ang：“我们为学生们开设这些课程来帮助他们找寻快乐，现在问 题是：我该如何给快乐下定义？比如快乐是个性的加强。我们正提供有帮助的建 议来使学生更强健，学生会问：我是一个怎样的人？我真的高兴吗？”P ascal G embe：这需要花时间，每个人必须为自己找寻快乐，你不可能去 一个训练课说：教给我快乐一个学生只能从教师或客座讲师那得到暗示，另 外也有研究快乐的科学家，如果我们能与他们之一交流，我确信他能给一些暗 示。”Yosma P inar Cetinkaya：“你会认为老师在黑板上写下快乐的定义，那不 正确。哪些想得到快乐的学生必须为他们自己寻找，你不能真正通过学习得到。”既然如此，得到快乐的代价是什么？你能在学校学到它吗？L istening inP assage oneInterviewer:Can you tell mehow do you think you have changed as you have matured?What things have had a major influence on you?Speaker 1:Well,let me thinkI suppose going to university had a big impact on my life.It made me much more open-minded.I met so many different types of people there with weird and wonderful ideas and it changed the way I see the world.I m much more tolerant now,It made me a more rounded person.7Interviewer:G reat,and had any particular person had a central role in forming your character?Speaker 1:I guess that d have to be my grandfather.I was very close to him,and he taught me to stand up for my beliefs.He was always telling me about thisInterviewer:So what people or events have had an impact on your life?Speaker 2:I think that traveling my gap year made me grow up and see both the beauty of the world and,well,just the generosity of ordinary people.I traveled a lot around Asia and you know,I found that in some of the poorest countries,like Cambodia and L aos,people share whatever little they have,and they possess a real joy for life.It s probably made me a less selfish person.Interviewer:Interestingso you would recommend that young people take a gap year to discover themselves and the world?Speaker 2:Definitely.It gives you an opportunity o learn about the world beyond the one you grew up in and I found it really,Interviewer:Could you tell me what things in your life have had the greatest influence in forming your personality?Speaker 3:Wella couple of years ago I was on a reality TV show where a group of young people all lived in a house together.Each week some one was voted off by the audience.I got down to the final three!I suppose being on the show and seeing how the other contestants behaved made me realize how selfish and spiteful some people can be just to get what they want.I also realized it s best to just be yourself in life.If you pretend to be someone different people will eventually see through the lies.Interviewer:RightAnd how did you feel when you were eventually voted off?8Speaker 3:Relieved,to be honest with you.But you know,a slight regret that I didn,t win because I kind ofInterviewer:So you can tell me,what one thing do you think that has had the biggest impact on your life?Speaker 4:Hmm,that,s a difficult question.But I think helping victims of the tsunami in 2004 had a very great impact on me.I m half Thai and I d just arrived in Thailand for a family Christmas holiday.When I heard the news I knew I had to help-you couldn,t not.I ended up acting as an interpreter for a group of volunteer doctors.It was an incredibly difficult time but you know,even in the middle of such a horrific tragedy there is still a huge amount of genuine human kindness.Interviewer:That s amazing!And has it changed the way you view your future采访者 你能不能告诉我你认为在你渐渐成熟的过程中产生了怎样的变化 呢？什么事情对你产生了主要的影响？发言人1嗯，让我想想我认为上大学对我的生活产生了重大的影响。大学生 活让我的思想更加开明。我在那遇到了太多不同类型的人，他们有着奇 特而又令人称赞的想法。这让我改变了我看世界的方式。我现在宽容多 了上大学让我成为了一个更加全面的人。采访者太棒了那有没有一些特殊的人在你的性格塑造上产生主要影响呢？受访者1我觉得这个人应该是我的祖父。我和他非常亲近，是他教会了我要坚 持自己的信仰。他总是这么和我说采访者 那什么人或事对你的生活产生了重要的影响呢？受访者2我认为在我的空档年旅行让我逐渐成长，让我同时看见了世界的美丽 和单单是普通人的慷慨。我去亚洲游玩了很多地方，你知道的，我发 现在一些最贫困的国家，像柬埔寨和老挝，人们会分享他们所拥有的一 切，无论多少。因此他们拥有对生活最真的快乐。这很可能让我成为一 个不那么自私的人。9采访者：很有趣。所以你建议年轻人在大学前的那一年里去发现自己和整个世界 么？受访者2:：当然了，它能够给你一个机会去了解你生活环境之外的世界，而且 我觉得它很采访者：你介意告诉我，在你的生活中，什么事情对你的人格的形成起了最重要 的影响么？受访者3：恩，几年前，我参加一个电视真人秀的时候，年轻人都住在同一个房 子里。每一个星期，都会有人根据观众的投票而离开。我坚持到了最后 三名！我想通过参加这次活动，以及观察其他参赛者的行为，让我认识 到了一个人为了达到他的目的，可以多么的自私与居心叵测。同时我也 认识到了在生活中，最好做自己。如果你试图去做其他不同于自己的人,别人最终会看穿这个谎言。采访者：那么，当你最后被投票要离开的时候，你是什么感觉？受访者3：说实话，我感觉如释重负。但是你知道,还会有一点儿遗憾，我有些 采访者:那么你可以告诉我，在你的生活中，什么事情对你起到了最大的影响么？受访者4：恩、，这是个很难回答的问题。但是我想在2004年的时候帮助海啸受 难者给我了巨大的影响。我有一半的泰国血统，那时我刚刚到达泰国去 参加家庭的圣诞聚会。当我听到这个消息的时候，我知道我必须去帮助 他们你不可能什么都不做。我最终成为一名医生小组的口译员。那 是一个十分艰难的时期，但是你知道，即使是在这样巨大的灾难之中，仍然会有很多人性的善良。采访者：真的很震惊！那么它改变了你对未来的想法么？P assage twoTony:Talking to us today in our L ife Choices series is Joan Robinson,an academic counselor at Manchester University.She gives advice to school students on choosing the right subject to study at university.Joan,welcome to the show.Joan:Thanks Tony.10Tony:So Joan,what do our listeners need to think about when choosing a course?It s a huge,potentially life-changing decision,isn,tit?Joan:Yes.I generally give students advice in two areas.Firstly,know yourself,and secondly,think to the future.Tony:When you say“know yourselfw what do you mean?Joan:Basically,I mean evaluate your own personal strengths and weaknesses,your personality traits and the things you like.Tony:I seeSo how can our listeners do this?Joan:Well,start by asking yourself questions to help reflect on your life so far.For example,what subjects are you good at?Are you an organized and self-disciplined person?Are you confident and outgoing?Do you like working with others in a team or do you prefer working alone?These kinds of questions will help you discover more about yourself.Tony:Sounds like good advice.How about your second point regarding the future?Joan:Well,your choice of major subject is likely to have a significant impact on your future career so it s important to look into this carefully.I recommend you check not only which academic subjects will help you get into a particular area of work,but also look carefully at what universities offer.Each university has its strengths so try to choose one that is the best in your chosen field.Find out what links the department has to related industries and leading companies in it.Tony:G ood point.Now I d like to take some calls from our listeners.First up we have James on the line.Hi,James!How can we help?James:Hi.I m interested in career in IT and P d like to ask Joan whether she thinks it s better to go to a highly respected university,like11Oxford,or to study somewhere that has more of a vocational focus?Joan:Well,James,you know it really depends on what you expect to get out of a university and how you see your future.Basically a handful of the brightest graduates are picked from the top universities around the world to join the leading IT companies.So I d say if you re a high-flyer then this is the route that might be for you.But if you are looking for a more mainstream career then you should consider a course that helps you acquire practical,transferable skills that you can use in the workplaceand look at which universities have the best levels of graduate recruitment for the kind of job you are aiming for.James:I see!Thanks a lot.That really helps me outTony：今天我们生活选择栏目的嘉宾是曼彻斯特大学的学校顾问乔恩罗宾逊。她将会给学生们一些在大学里如何去选择正确的学科的建议。乔恩,欢迎 来到我们的节目。Joan:谢谢，托尼。Tony：那么乔恩，我们的听众在选择课程时需要考虑些什么？这是一个重大的，可能改变生活的选择，对吗？Joan：是的。我一般给学生们两个方面的建议。第一，要了解自己；第二，要对 未来持有看法。Tony：你说的“了解自己”，具体是什么意思？Joan：基本上，我的意思是要评价自己的优缺点、性格特征和兴趣。Tony：明白。那么我们的听众要怎么做到这一点呢？Joan：目前，要从自我反思开始。例如，你擅长哪一科？你是不是一个有条理的,能自律的人？你是不是自信的，开朗的？你喜欢在个团队中与别人合作 还是孤军奋战？这些问题能帮助你更多地了解自己。Tony：听起来就是个好建议。那你的第二个关于未来的建议呢？Joan：你选择的主修课程很有可能对你以后的工作有重大的影响，所以，仔细地 12对专业进行调查是很重要的。我要求的不仅仅是调查哪一个专业能让你找 到好工作，而且要仔细地查阅一下学校提供的资源。每一所大学都有自己 的特色，所以要试着选择在你选择范
