It is important to have positive (积极的) feelings in our daily life.
Compared some unhappy people, those who are always pleased and relaxed are less likely to suffer from colds, a new study. Theresearchers from New York University said, “ helps the body prevent diseases.”
“It seems that positive feelings may reduce the of illness,” said the chief researcher Sheldon Cohen.
In an earlier study, Cohen found that people who were caught colds less often. And they seldom told their doctors that they felt .
In this study, Cohen’s team interviewed 193 adults every day for two weeks. In this , the people told researchers about happy or sad feelings that day. Two weeks later, all of them were made to catch colds by doctors, and they had to stay in a room for six days.
The results that each in the study was equal (平等的) to fall ill. people who were lively and relaxed said they felt happy during the research. Their illnesses were less serious and lasted for a time.
Cohen believes that people have positive feelings, their body may produce a kind of chemical that helps to illnesses. So if you your health, please look on the bright side and make yourself happy all the time

The Sweetest Sight
I was in the most beautiful city in the world, yet I only wanted home.
It was an amazing week for my husband and me –the trip of a lifetime. Months ago, when my husband told me that he would have a meeting in London. I expressed my to go to Europe together with him. Then we asked his mother to our two children and started off.
During the week’s time, visited London and Paris –as much as we could, Big Ben, the Louvre and so on. All these were beautiful places we expected to see before. We really enjoyed ourselves.
On our last night in Paris, we enjoyed the night view(夜景) of the Eiffel Tower, my husband called home. His mother the phone. In a second, my husband’s face fell and he looked so worried. I could feel something happened.
“What’s wrong?” I asked.
He didn’t answer and continued to listen. A few minutes later, he said to me that Tony, our seven-year-old son, had fallen off his bike and his leg. He must be sent to hospital at once.
At that moment, Paris suddenly lost its charm(魅力).
“I don’t want to be here! I shouldn’t be here! I should be home my kids!”
We hurried back to our hotel and then to the airport …
Finally, we got home. We rushed into our children’s bedroom. Seeing our two children, I suddenly realized the truth: there is no sight(风景)in the world than your children’s faces that greet you at home.
