Are you happy?
你快乐吗?
Would you rate your health and well-being as above average? You don't have to be a perfect 10 - anything from 6 on up means you're ahead of the game. If you're comparing yourself to others,make sure it's a fair comparison. A 60-year-old can't rate his health as above average if his standard is the way he felt when he was 20.
你是否认为自己的身体状况高于大众平均值?答案不必是满满的10分,只要6分以上都说明你领先于他人。如果你拿自己与他人比较,请确保其公平性。一个60岁的老人的身体状况不可能高于平均值,如果他的标准自己20岁时的状态。
Do you often find yourself feeling content? Being content means you're comfortable with where you are at this moment in life and you have no burning desire to make a change. Life is good and you want to savor it.
你是否经常感到满足?满足是指你对自己的现状感到非常舒服,没有急切地想改变现状的想法。生活很美好并且你想慢慢品位。
