The class teacher thought that hobbies were important for children. So she encouraged all her students to have one, and sometimes she arranged hobby shows for their parents to see as a result.

One morning the teacher told the class to have a holiday and get their hobby things to school before 5 p.m. A hobby show would be held the following afternoon.

So in the afternoon, the students with nothing to show did their lessons at school as usual, while the lucky ones had a holiday to go home for their hobby works.

When the afternoon lessons began, the teacher was surprised to see that Tommy was not there. “I don’t believe Tommy has a hobby,” she thought. However, at a quarter to five, Tommy arrived with a beautiful collection of butterflies (蝴蝶) in a glass case. The teacher liked the samples (標(biāo)本) very much and put them on a desk in the classroom. But, to her surprise, Tommy picked them up again and began to leave.

“What are you doing, Tommy?” She asked. “Those things must stay here until tomorrow afternoon. That’s when the parents are coming to see them.”

“I know that,” answered Tommy, “and I will bring them back tomorrow, but my big brother doesn’t want them to be out of our house at night.”

“But, aren’t the butterflies yours?” asked the teacher.

“No,” answered Tommy. “They are my brother’s.”

“But Tommy, you should show your own hobby here, not somebody else’s!”

“I know that,” answered Tommy. What surprised her most was the answer. “My hobby is watching my brother collecting butterflies.”

There is something in the world. It has no shape, no color and no weight. It can't be seen or touched. But everyone wants it very much People try to get it in many ways. Some people think money means it, so they try to make more money; some people believe that knowledge can bring it to them, so they study very hard; some other people find only good health can make themselves get it, so they take part in all kinds of sports and games. Now, you may ask what on earth the mysterious thing is. That's HAPPINESS. I can't give you the exact meaning of happiness, but I'm sure if you love and help others, you'll get it.

I'll never forget an old lady. She lives in a small house alone. It's said that her husband and her son died in a traffic accident. What a sorrow life she has! But the old lady often helps others with a smile. Whenever it snows, she is always the first to clean the paths （小路）. She looks after several children living nearby. I am one of them. I often remember the stories she told us and her kind smile. Perhaps she is unlucky, but I think she is a happy person. Her life is full of laughter and love.

But I'm sad to see some people getting their happiness in bad ways. They speak loudly in cinemas and meeting rooms; they destroy （損壞） trees to enjoy themselves and they laugh at others' shortcomings. Perhaps they feel happy at that time, but they will never get true happiness because they have destroyed others' happiness.

Now I know what happiness is. It means kindness, love and unselfishness. Above all, only bringing happiness to others can make yourself happy.
