Как вы, наверняка, догадались мы собираемся обсуждать два состояния — счастья (being happy) и печали (feeling sad). У всех нас есть чувства (we all have feelings). Они являются индивидуальной составной (the individual part) нашего характера (character), которые показывают, как мы чувствуем (show the way we feel) в зависимости от ситуации (depending on situation) вокруг нас.
Наши чувства относятся к нашему эмоциональному состоянию (our emotional state), настроению (mood), расположению духа (frame of mind), темпераменту (temper), нраву (disposition), душевному состоянию (state of mind), духовному состоянию (spirit). Ко всем перечисленным словам можно прибавить два слова «good» или «bad», чтобы показать позитивное настроение (positive mood) и негативное настроение (negative mood).
Наши чувства и настроения связаны с образом мышления (the way we think), который происходит в нашем мозге (in our mind). Изучение этого предмета называется «психологией» (psychology). Наш мозг контролирует все, что мы делаем (our minds control everything we do).
Помимо наших действий, настроение также влияет на здоровье (can affect our health). Если вы чувствуете себя несчастным (feel unhappy) в течение длительного периода времени (over a long period of time), вам, скорее всего, нужно навестить врача (need to see a doctor), поскольку вы можете страдать депрессией (could be suffering from depression), что часто является следствием стресса (caused by stress) или неожиданной переменой в вашей жизни (a sudden change in your life), например, потерей работы (loss of job) или смертью близкого человека (death of a loved one).
Может, это звучит странно, но на наше настроение также влияет погода. Психологи (psychologists) обнаружили, что химический дисбаланс в мозге может стать причиной нашей печали, когда мало солнечного света (when there is little sunlight about). Те, на кого это влияет, будут чувствовать себя счастливее летом, а зимой могут погрузиться в печаль. Это заболевание даже имеет название – SAD – seasonal affected disorder.
Выражения, описывающие настроение
Удивительно (it is amazing), как наше настроение может меняться (how our moods can change) изо дня в день (day by day). Вот несколько идиом, которые вам будут интересны.
- happy as Larry – без ума от счастья
- jump for joy — прыгать от радости
- smile from ear to ear – улыбаться до ушей
- happy go lucky – беспечный, беззаботный
- on top of the world – на седьмом небе
- down in the dumps – как в воду опущенный, подавленный
- under a black cloud – в печали
- in the doldrums – хандрить, быть в депрессии
Вокруг нас много вещей, способных поднять нам настроение. Классическая музыка (а piece of classical music) может эмоционально воздействовать на нас (touch emotionally). Счастливая история может поднять нам настроение (uplift our mood) и подбодрить (cheer up). Мы часто смеемся или плачем, когда смотрим романтическое кино (romantic movie).
Англичане часто используют выражение “laughter is the best medicine” – смех – лучшее лекарство. Это означает, что если мы чувствуем себя несчастными, то чтобы избавиться от этого настроения (to get out of that mood) нужно посмотреть что-то юмористическое (watch something humorous) по телевизору, или состроить смешную рожицу в зеркало (make a funny face in the mirror), громко рассмеяться (laugh out loud).

happy
Happy primarily refers to something that comes «by good hap,» a chance that brings prosperity, benefit, or success.
And grasps the skirts of happy chance.
Tennyson In Memoriam lxiii, st. 2.
In this sense happy is closely allied to fortunate and lucky. (See FORTUNATE.) Happy has, however, so far diverged from this original sense as to apply to advantages where chance is not recognized, or is even excluded by direct reference to the divine will, when it becomes almost equivalent to blessed.
Behold, happy is the man whom God correcteth.
Job v, 17.
Happy is also applied to the ready dexterity or skill by which favorable results (usually in minor matters) are secured, when it becomes a synonym for dexterous, felicitous, and the associated words; as, he has a happy wit; happy at retort (compare CLEVER). In its most frequent present use, happy is applied to the state of one enjoying happiness, or to that by which happiness is expressed; as, a happy heart; a happy face; happy laughter; happy tears (compare synonyms for HAPPINESS). Cheerful applies to the possession or expression of a moderate and tranquil happiness. A cheery word spontaneously gives cheer to others; a cheering word is more distinctly planned to cheer and encourage. Gay applies to an effusive and superficial happiness (often not really worthy of that name) perhaps resulting largely from abundant animal spirits: we speak of gay revelers or a gay horse. A buoyant spirit is, as it were, borne up by joy and hope. A sunny disposition has a constant tranquil brightness that irradiates all who come within its influence.
