Happiness
1. What do you think makes people feel happy?
I think a relatively comfortable life, a loving family, and a good work-life balance are the keys to general happiness in life really. I think some people also need a fairly active social life and a couple of hobbies, interests, or sporting activities too, to feel really fulfilled.
我认为，相对舒适的生活，一个充满爱意的家庭，以及良好的工作与生活平衡，才是生活中普遍幸福的关键，真的。我觉得有些人还需要有相当活跃的社交生活，也需要有一些爱好、兴趣或体育活动，才能感到真正的满足。
2. Do you think happiness is important?
Of course, happiness is important, because if you are happy you are motivated, and if you are motivated you achieve things, and you become a positive person who spreads positivity to other people around you. Positive, happy people are great to be around and make us feel life is really worth living, even in hard times.
当然，快乐是很重要的，因为如果你快乐，你就会有动力，如果你有动力，你就会取得成就，你就会成为一个积极的人，把积极的一面传播给周围的人。积极、快乐的人很好相处，让我们觉得生活真的很有价值，即使是在困难时期。
3. Can you tell me a happy experience that recently happened in your life?
I get happiness from fairly simple things, to be honest. A time I recently felt happy was after the new year when I went for a big dinner with my friends in a new restaurant in my town. We ate a lot of really good food, we chatted, and drank some beers, and afterwards we went to dance. I enjoy that kind of thing from time to time, and this occasion was especially fun!
说实话，我从相当简单的事情中获得幸福感。我最近感到幸福的一次是在新年后，我和朋友们一起去我所在城市的一家新餐馆吃大餐。我们吃了很多非常好吃的食物，我们聊天，喝了一些啤酒，之后我们去跳舞。我时常喜欢这样的事情，这个场合特别有趣!
4. Do you think money plays an important role in people’s happiness?
Money plays a role in one’s fundamental state of comfort in life, and enables one to do the basic things in life without too much struggle or stress. So, money is important to a point, but not as important as some people claim it is. One can also be obsessed with money and focus on it too much. And this is not always the root of true happiness.
金钱对一个人的基本生活状态起到了舒适的作用，让人在做生活中的基本事情时，不会有太多的挣扎和压力。所以，钱在一定程度上是很重要的，但并不像有些人所说的那么重要。一个人也可能会迷恋金钱，过于注重金钱。而这并不一定是真正幸福的根本。
