24、nse of observation, which he later put to use in his writing. Flaubert also allowed Maupassant to attend his Sunday gatherings with others in his literary circle For a few years, Maupassant was connected with the Ministry of Public Instruction. It is interesting to note that Monsieur Loisel, a poor
25、man character in The Necklace, worked there. He also served in the French army during the Franco-Prussian War. His favorite writing subjects were peasants, servants, in the city, and the Francd-Prussian War. At an early age, Maupassant started writing short stories. In 1880, some of his works were p
26、ublished and he received a wide reputation for Boule de Suif (Ball of Tallow). With this success, he began to work full-time on writing. During the next ten years, he wrote over 300 stories, including six novels, three travel books, and a book of verse. Through them, he earn a lot of money. His writ
27、ing was classical and simple, avoiding social comments and dirty details. His works often showed a real world and an accurate knowledge of the subject.

32、uldnt rely on my husband as my source of happiness. I learned that my happiness depended on myself and not my husbands actions. I learned that you have to choose to be happy.

33、happiness The same way, you choose to smile or choose to wear a certain outfit（一套衣服） . You choose it because thats what you want to experience in you life.

34、t doesnt fit well, right So why do we keep choosing emotions and feelings that dont make us feel good Choosing to be happy after you realize your anger has shown up (or even choosing to be calm) can be beneficial. We choose our feelings; no one else can do that for us. If we let others get to us, in
35、fluence our emotions we are giving them power over us. When others cause us anger or pain, we are giving them our power. We need to keep our feelings in check and not to react（反应） automatically to what is thrown at us. We need to think our actions out instead of just reacting to what someone says or
36、 does. Remember that we can always choose happiness. At first it will be difficult to just switch（使转变） your thoughts and feelings from anger, self-doubt, or fear to joy and happiness. But it is only a thought away. Dont dwell on（细想） what happens to you unnecessarily but realize what is causing you t
