THE ASSESSMENT OF COMMUNICATIVE COMPETENCE (30 points)

Read the text and do the tasks below the text.

Happiness

Do you know what makes you happy or do you just think you know? At first, these two questions
look the same. Write a list of all the things that make you happy. How many of them are fun?
Most of them? So, if you spend your time doing all these fun things, you’ll be really happy, won’t
you?

Well, maybe not. For most people, fun isn’t enough for real happiness. Paul Dolan wrote a book
called Happiness by Design. He thinks happiness comes from both pleasure and purpose. If most
of the things on your list are about pleasure, that is what you think makes you happy. But you
also need activities with purpose.

We usually know if something is fun, but we don’t know what brings meaning. For example, most
people think air pilots have jobs with clear purpose. They fly hundreds of people all over the
world. But they spend a lot of time in boring hotels and airports and they do the same things
hundreds of times. Those activities might not bring meaning – and they’re probably not fun. So,
pilots also need to find pleasure and purpose in their work and life.

There are different ways we can find purpose in things. Some activities might be motivating
because they work for the good of people and the world around us. Or what you do might help a
team you’re working in. If you’re a student, your ‘job’ is studying and passing exams. It’s easy to
do well in subjects you like, but subjects you don’t like are less motivating. However, you have to
study them so you need to find purpose. Can you be part of a study team with friends? Each
person can study one part until they understand it and then teach it to the rest of the group. The
purpose becomes helping the team.

Go back to your list of things that make you happy. How many of them are activities that bring
purpose? Can you add any? Remember, some activities might bring both pleasure and purpose.

Now you need to design a happy life. First decide what brings you pleasure and/or purpose – that
means your two lists. Then, don’t just think about these activities, fill your life with them. For
example, you might love riding a bike but never have time to do it. So, ride to school or the
library or the shops. If you go in the car, put it in the back, stop a few kilometers away and ride
the rest. Some parts of our lives are good or bad luck, but we can still design the rest to make
more happiness.
