II. Read the passage and choose the best answers to the questions.
Think back to the last time you helped someone, whether it was holding the door open for a
classmate or raking your elderly neighbour’s leaves. While you were doing it and afterward, how
did you feel? We are going to make a safe bet you felt happy and more positive about life. That’s
because the fastest way to feel joy is serving others.
An old Chinese proverb tells it perfectly, “If you want happiness for an hour, take a nap. If you
want happiness for a day, go fishing. If you want happiness for a year, inherit a fortune. If you
want happiness for a lifetime, help somebody.”
But serving does not just make your heart feel good. Studies have shown that there are mental
and physical health benefits to serving, like reducing depression, lowering blood pressure and lengthening your lifespan.
Putting other people’s needs before yours also strengthens your relationships. It connects you
with the one you’re serving, and if that someone is someone you know, it creates a stronger bond with them.
It also enriches other people’s lives. Taking time out of your busy day to even bring a friend a
bowl of soup when they are sick makes them feel better and can uplift them during their rough time.
And perhaps the best benefit of service is the chance of that person paying it forward. If you help
someone, they are more likely to do something nice for someone else that day. Your one act of
kindness could have a major domino effect.

A. Other acts of kindness will highly likely to happen due to yours.
B. You could make more people feel happy with your kindness.
C. There will be more acts of kindness, but yours is the major.
D. Without your act of kindness, other people can still behave well.
