3 . Schaumburg District 54, a school district in Schaumburg, Illino, has implemented a happiness curriculum. A key component of the curriculum is gratitude, where students develop four habits that take up just 21 minutes each day through exercises and learn to be thankful for not what they may want, but what makes them happy right now. And the four happiness habits are listed.
Two minutes of emailing
Write a two-minute maximum email each day praising or thanking a different person in your life. Not only do you often receive positive emails back, but this habit significantly increases your social connection, which is the greatest predictor of long-term happiness and is also as predictive of how long you will live as obesity or high blood pressure.
Fifteen minutes of movement
Fifteen minutes of movement each day can be the equal of taking an antidepressant, and acts as a gateway drug because people who do this start adding on entire groups of positive habits.
Two minutes of meditation(冥想)
Two minutes of meditation-simply watching your breath go in and out -improves accuracy on tasks by 10 percent, significantly reduces stress, improves sleep and raises engagement scores.
Two minutes of journal
Two minutes of journal about a positive, meaningful experience each day can significantly decrease pain symptoms and stress and increase the amount of meaning you feel in your life. Simply think of one meaningful event that happened over the past 24 hours and then on a sheet of paper, write down some details you can remember, which is called “Doubler”. Your brain struggles to tell the difference between visualization and actual experience, so you are doubling a meaningful event each day.
1. What does the new curriculum focus on?| A．Being grateful. | B．Being energetic. | C．Physical health. | D．Interpersonal relationship. |
| A．Two minutes of journal. | B．Two minutes of emailing. |
| C．Two minutes of meditation. | D．Fifteen minutes of movement. |
| A．Improving sleep. | B．Boosting optimism. | C．Gaining insight into life. | D．Increasing social connection. |
