loadingbe a life-changing event but should have a clear beginning, middle and end.Reread it every day for a week, and each time ask yourself some questions.Writing down the answers“puts you in touch with what you're good at”， Dr.Seligman explained.The next step is to consider how to use these strengths to your advantage, intentionally organizing and structuring your life around them.“A week later, a month later, six months later, people had on average lower rates of depression and higher life satisfaction，” Dr.Seligman said.“Possible mechanisms could be more positive emotions.People like you more, relationships go better, life goes better.”
Set aside 10 minutes before you go to bed each night to write down three things that went really well that day.Next to each event answer the question, “Why did this good thing happen？”
Instead of focusing on life's lows, which can increase the likelihood of depression, the exercise “turns your attention to the good things in life, so it changes what you attend to”， Dr.Seligman said.“Consciousness is like your tongue: It rolls around in the mouth looking for a cavity (龋洞), and when it finds it, you focus on it.Imagine if your tongue went looking for a beautiful, healthy tooth.” Polish it.
Think of someone who has been especially kind to you but you have not properly thanked.Write a letter describing what he or she did and how it affected your life, and how you often remember the effort.Then arrange a meeting and read the letter aloud, in person.“It's common that when people do the gratitude visit both people weep out of joy，”Dr.Seligman said.Why is the experience so powerful？“It puts you in better touch with other people, with your place in the world.”
Responding constructively was inspired by the work of Shelly Gable, a social psychologist at the University of California, Santa Barbara, who has extensively studied marriages and other close relationships.The next time someone you care about shares good news, give what Dr.Gable calls an “active constructive response”．That is, instead of saying something passive, express real excitement.Extend the discussion by, say, encouraging them to tell others or suggest a celebratory activity.
So, the most effective long-term strategy for well-being is to actively cultivate well-being rather than only focus on how to relieve depression, anger and worry.

The dialogues are mainly about the bike-sharing boom in our country, with more companies springing up in the market. Although the service brings great convenience to people, it also causes some problems.

and tourists with a convenient, cheap and healthy means of transport. On the other hand, regulations and policies about the bike-sharing service should be put in place. The government, companies and users should all play a role in making bike sharing sustainable and enjoyable.
In a word, bike sharing is an innovative service, which relieves urban traffic pressure and brings citizens enormous benefits. And more shared bikes should be launched into the market.
