第一篇 Oseola McCarty
LATE ONE SUNDAY AFTERNOON in September 1999，Oseola McCarty，an elderly cleaning lady passed away in the little wooden frame house where she had lived and worked most of her life. It may seem like an ordinary end to a humble life，but there was something quite exceptional about this woman. 1
In the summer of 1995 ，McCarty gave $ 150，000，most of the money she had saved throughout her life，to the University of Southern Mississippi in her hometown. The money was to help other African Americans through university. She had started her savings habit as a young child when she would return from school to clean and iron for money which she would then save.
She led a simple，frugal existence，never spending on anything but her most basic needs. 2 Her bank also advised her on investing her hard-earned savings.
When she retired，she decided that she wanted to use the money to give children of limited Means the opportunity to go to university. 3 She had wanted to become a nurse，but had to leave school to look after ill relatives and work. When asked why she had given her life savings away，she replied，“I’m giving it away so that children won't have to work so hard，like I did. ” After news of her donation hit the media，over 600 donations were made to the scholarship fund. One was given by media executive，Ted Turner，who reputedly gave a billion dollars.
She didn't want any fuss made over her gift，but the news got out and she was invited all over the United States to talk to people. Wherever she went ，people would come up to her to say a few words or to just touch her. She met the ordinary and the famous，President Clinton included. In the last few years of her life，before she died of cancer，McCarty was given over 300 awards：she was honoured by the United Nations and received the Presidential Citizen' s Medal.

第二篇 Gross National Happiness
In the last century, new technologyimproved the lives of many people in many countries. However, one countryresisted these changes. High in the Himalayan mountains of Asia, the kingdom ofBhutan remained separate. Its people and Buddhist (佛教) culture had not beenaffected for almost a thousand years. Bhutan, however, was a poor country. Peopledied at a young age. Most of its people could not read, and they did not knowmuch about the outside world. Then, in 1972, a new ruler named King JigmeSingye Wangchuck decided to help Bhutan to become modern, but without losingits traditions.
King Wangchuck looked at othercountries for ideas. He saw that most countries measured their progress bytheir Gross National Product (GNP). The GNP measures products and money. When thenumber of products sold increases, people say the country is making progress. KingWangchuck had a different idea for Bhutan. He wanted to measure his country’sprogress by people’s happiness. If the people’s happiness increased, the king couldsay that Bhutan was making progress. To decide if people were happier, hecreated a measure called Gross National Happiness (GNH).
GNH is based on certain principlesthat create happiness. People are happier if they have heath care, education,and jobs. They are happier when they live in a healthy, protected environment. Theyare happier when can keep their traditional culture and customs. Finally,people are happier when they have a good, stable government. Now there is some evidence ofincreased GNH in Bhutan. People are healthier and are living longer. More peopleare educated and employed. Twenty-five percent of the land has become nationalparks, and the country has almost no pollution. The Bhutanese continue to weretheir traditional clothing and follow their ancient Buddhist customs. Bhutanhas also become a democracy. In 2008, King Wangchuck gave his power to his son.Although the country still had a king, it held its first democratic electionsthat year. Bhutan had political parties and political candidates for the firsttime. Finally, Bhutan has connected to the rest of the world through televisionand the Internet.
Bhutan is a symbol for social progress.Many countries are now interested in Bhutan’s GNH. These countries areinvestigating their own ways to measure happiness. They want to create newpolicies that take care of their people, cultures, and land. Brazil may be the next country to usethe principles of GNH. Brazilian leaders see the principles of GNH as a sourceof inspiration. Brazil is a large country with a diverse population. If happinessworks as a measure of progress in Brazil, perhaps the rest of the world willfollow.
36. Who was Jigme Singye Wangchuck?
