Alexis was hot and tired. With rage in her voice she shouted, "Pull me up!I give up, I hate this. This is stupid!" It was at that moment when Jason, the adviser on the trip, looked at me and said, "Ed, I'm going to go down and talk with her." I then shouted down to Alexis, "Hold on! You can do this. We know you can!"
Jason grasped another rope, put his climbing harness(系带)on and began to repel down the cliff. Within moments Jason was beside Alexis. She had her cheek directly against the face of the rock with her feet barely resting on a small piece of the cliff that jetted outward. Jason said to Alexis, "I know that you have been on this cliff now for what seems like a long time. Your feet and fingers are cramping(痉挛)up and your forearms feel as though they are on fire. But , Alexis, you are strong, look how far up you are already. You have taken one of the more difficult paths up the cliff. Look Alexis, look at the path you have taken."
At that moment, Alexis moved her cheek away from the rock face and looked down. The bright white chalk she used on her hands to give her a better hold, showed the path where her tired hands had moved her upward on the cliff. Jason was right. Alexis had taken the hardest way up the cliff. Jason then looked straight into Alexis' eyes and in a calm voice he said, "You are not alone out here, there are people who care about you, who want to help you and see you succeed. We are going to do this together. Are you ready?" Slowly she shook her head yes and took a deep breath.

A peacock(孔雀)was very unhappy with her ugly voice, so she spent most of her days complaining about it.
“It is true that you cannot sing," said the fox, "but look how beautiful you are!"
“Oh, but what good is all this beauty," cried the bird, "with such an unpleasant voice!”
“Listen," said the fox, "each one owns something good: you have such beauty; the nightingale(夜莺)has her songs; and the owl<猫头鹰)has his eyes. Even if you had a sweet voice, you would still complain about another thing. Why can't you just be happy about what you have already got?"

I saw a dear friend a few days ago and stopped by to ask her how she was doing.She looked up,voice lowered,just complaining:“I'm so busy…have so much going on”
Almost immediately after,I ran into another friend and asked him how he was.Again,the same tone,the same response:“I'm just so busy…got so much to do.”
Their responses knocked me down.How did we create a world in which we have more and more to do with less time for leisure,less time for reflection,less time for community? When did we forget that we are human beings,not human doings? What happened to a world in which we can sit with the people we love so much and have slow conversations with meaningful pauses and silences that we are in no rush to fill?
This disease of being “busy” is spiritually destructive to our health and well-being.It weakens our ability to be fully present with those we love the most in our families, and keeps us from forming the kind of community that we all so desperately tong for.
I don’t have any magical solutions.All I know is that we are losing the ability to live a truly human life.I am always a prisoner of hope, but I wonder if we are willing to make a change to our so-called busyness of life.Somehow we need a different model of organizing our lives,our societies,and our families.
I want us to have a kind of existence where we can pause,look each other in the eye,touch one another,and ask ourselves:Here is how my heart is doing,I am taking the time to reflect on my own existence,and I know how to express the state of my heart.
1.What’s the result of the busy lifestyle?
A.People will become forgetful in their everyday life.
B.People are beginning to find some time for leisure.
C.People may lose the ability of enjoying their life.
D.People will further understand the importance of community.
2.How can we live a relaxed and balanced life according to the author?
A.By seeking help from local families.
B.By improving our working ability.
C.By reconstructing the model of our lives.
D.By creating a smarter open community.
3.Calling himself a prisoner of hope,the author means that .
A.he thinks people won’t change
B.he actually has magical solutions
C.it is harmful to have many hopes
D.he is always optimistic about life
4.What is the purpose of the author writing the article?
A.To express concerns about people’s complaints.
B.To criticize and reflect on the people’s present lifestyle.
C.To voice his opinions on how to live a simple life.
D.To question whether it is possible to live a slow life.

With her pretty face and soulful voice, Zhang Bichen was instantly thought a possible champion when she first set foot on the stage of the TV show The Voice of China.
On Oct 7, 2014, the 25-year-old girl won the fierce competition and received the title of the “Voice of the Year”. Zhang’s dream of being a singer star came true at last. What impressed people was not only Zhang’s singing skills, but her willingness to make an effort. “I gained the opportunity to sing on The Voice of China,” she said.

To pursue her dream, Zhang signed a contract with the company, started her career in South Korea, and became a member of a band.
“My company had rules that did not allow us to use cell phones. During the first few months after I arrived in South Korea, a totally unfamiliar country, I felt terribly homesick. But I could only phone my parents in the restroom when nobody noticed.” said Zhang. “When I did not have much income, I had to eat instant noodles every day for months.”
It was her positive attitude and outgoing character that helped her through. “When I feel down, I tell myself it is not winning or losing that matters. The most important things are standing on the stage and singing for people.” she said.
