Happiness is for everyone．You don't need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on．Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads in their free time.

    In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it．When you are in trouble at school , your friends will help you ; when you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health ; when you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you ; when you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct it ．And when you do something good to others , you will feel happy , too ．All these are your happiness．If you notice them, you can see that happiness is always around you．

    Happiness is not the same as money．It is a feeling of your heart．When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy , because you have something else that can't be bought with money．When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge yourself．So you cannot always say you are poor and you have bad luck．As the saying goes, life is like a revolving door．When it closes, it also opens．If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person．

Each part of the United Kingdom has its own national flower．The national flower of Scotland is the Scottish bluebell．However, it is commonly though to be the thistle （ 薊 ）, a thorny（ 帶刺的 ） purple flower．

Well, so the story goes, a very long time ago, a Roman army came north from England to make war on Scotland．The Scots, a brave people, loved their country．They fought hard to drive the enemy out of Scotland．But there were too many of the Romans．It looked as if the Romans would win．

One night, the leader of the Scots marched his soldiers to the top of a hill．" We will rest here tonight, my men．" he said, " Tomorrow we will fight one more battle．We must win, or we will die．”

     They were all very tired．So they ate their supper quickly and fell asleep．There were four guards on duty, but they were too tired, and one by one they fell asleep．

     The Romans were not asleep．Quickly they gathered at the foot of the hill．Slowly they went up the hill．Closer they came to the sleeping Scots．They were almost at the top．A few minutes more the war would be over．

     Suddenly, one of them put his foot on a thistle．He cried out and his sudden cry woke the Scots．In a minute they were on their feet and ready for a battle．The fighting was hard, but it did not last long．The Scots wiped out the Romans and saved Scotland．

     Since then the flower has become a national symbol （象征） ．Nowadays, the thistle is widely used to stand for the " Scottishness" of countless products, services, organizations, etc．a(chǎn)nd can be seen everywhere．
