4.Do you know the numbers 0-9 well?They are numbers in Arabic numerals(阿拉伯數(shù)字).
People use them to mark numbers now.But it's not the only number system that people use.
About 2,500 years ago,people in Rome used their hands to count.In Roman numerals,one finger means 1,two fingers mean 2,three fingers mean 3,four fingers mean 4.If you want to say five,you can keep your four fingers close on one side and your thumb on the other side.Make both of your hands be five,then you'll have ten.So in Rome,the numbers are "I,II,III,IV,V,VI,VII,VIII,IX,X".Also, "L" means fifty, "C" means one hundred, "D" means five hundred and "M" means one thousand.But there is no zero in Rome numerals.Today,few people use them because they are difficult to write and count.But we can still see them on some watches and clocks.
Today,most people use the Arabic numerals.They are easy to remember and write.They help people to count things every day.In fact,Indians first created and used the Arabic numerals.In the late 8th century,people in Arabic countries learned about them.Then the Arabic people took them into Europe.So people in Europe called them Arabic numerals.Today,people around the world use Arabic numerals and they help a lot.

5.Happiness is important to everyone.Most people want to be happy but few know how to find happiness.Money and success don't bring lasting happiness.Happiness depends on ourselves.In other words,we make our own happiness.Some people believe that if they are wealthy,they will be able to buy anything they want,which means happiness.On the other hand,some people believe that holding a high position(地位) in the government is happjye.aiess.In this way,you have both money and many other things which can't be bought by money.However,other people believe that having lots of money is not happiness,nor is holding a high position in the government.These people value their beliefs,or their intelligence,or their health.They think these can make them happy.
Here are a few ways to help you be happier.
The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life.Sometimes we spend too much time thinking about the future,for example,getting into college or getting a good job,then we don't enjoy the present(現(xiàn)狀).You should enjoy life's simple pleasures,such as reading a good book,listening to your favorite music,or spending time with close friends.People who have close friends usually enjoy happier and healthier lives.
The second secret of happiness is to be active.Many people go dancing or play sports.People can forget about their problems and only think about the activities.
Finally,many people find happiness in helping others.According to studies,people feel good when they volunteer their time to do many meaningful things for other people.If you want to feel happier,do something nice for someone.You can help a friend with his or her studies,go shopping to get food for an old neighbor,or simply help around the house.
