I have three kids and a great husband and I’m enjoying a career that I find challenging and fun.To the outside world,this feels like“Success.”But there is still a voice in my heart asking if this is who I truly am.Only in silence do I hear the self and wonder who that person might be.
So I booked a trip to find out.I travelled,for the first time,without my husband or kids.I went to Iceland with a friend,who shares an appreciation for wilderness and silence.
For six days,we were immersed(沉浸)in wild,raw scenery and real weather—a11 kinds of weather.Climbing a mountain against rain and returning to a tent for a simple meal reminds you how little you actually need.And how strong it feels to be uncomfortable sometimes.
I found silence in Iceland,and time to consider the me outside of career and the me out—side of kids as I shared stories with strangers.
When I stopped talking and just 1istened,I became more generous.I 1earned that choosing to be generous can create more space,more food and more warmth.
But I didn’t really gain any better appreciation of what I want from life or my job.I suspect the anxiety that drove me to seek silence in Iceland was losing sight of my ability to choose gratitude and joy,and to be present in the challenges I set in my career and my family.
I came home to noise,rush and love;with no less confusion on who I want to be. I know the answer isn’t waiting out there on the top of a mountain in Iceland.The answer is in front of me with every step on my own 1ife’s path,and in every choice I make.
1.Why did the author take a trip to Iceland?
A. To gain a new experience. B. To enjoy family happiness.
C. To better understand herself. D. To appreciate natural beauty.
2.What do we 1earn about the author’s trip?
A. Exciting. B. Difficult.
C. Relaxing. D. Adventurous.
3.What change happened to the author?
A. She felt lonelier. B. She felt more anxious.
C. She became more caring. D. She became more confident.
4.What will the author do in the future?
A. Go back to nature. B. Face reality bravely.
C. Travel to Iceland more often. D. Pay less attention to her feelings.

Fortunately, I've been able to avoid the traffic jam brought by presidential visits because ! don't have to commute anywhere. Barack Obama visited Los Angeles recently which paralyzed large sections of a city and you could almost hear the collective pain of unhappy commuters.
I am among the l0 percent of people in the US that regularly work from home. You could include Obama among them, although I suspect his working area in the White House is better-equipped than my small space on to the back of the garage. He also probably doesn't have a problem with three little kids interrupting his phone calls or bursting into his office at inappropriate moments.
Every day there they are, knocking on my window and peering inside, as if looking at an animal in a zoo. Once, a telephone interview I was doing with the former California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger was interrupted by my older son, then three years old, and completely naked "Ahaaar!" he shouted to my face. "What was that?" said Schwarzenegger. I stammered(结巴地说出) something about the joys of children and silently managed to shoo the boy out of the room without putting down the phone.
I shouldn't complain. I no longer have to stand having someone's armpit(腋窝) being pressed into my face on a crowded train and home status means ! should be a more productive worker although working from home could also lead to "avoiding duties from home". I would argue that a bigger problem is going nuts: Staring at the same walls every day and not going anywhere can do strange things to a person.
I realized I had to get out of the house at least once a day to avoid turning into an unshaven and unshoweredrecluse(隐士) who was still in his pyjamas at dinner time. I would work for an hour or so in a local coffee shop but, like most routine, this became boring because I would constantly see the same faces: Screenwriters poring over screenplays, elderly women heading to the yoga studio next door and hordes of overweight middle-aged male cycling by.
And yet here I am several years later, still working from home consciously and, I'm happy to report, not sitting at my desk in my pyjamas. Not since last Tuesday, anyway.
1.The author may agree that __
A. it's a bad decision to work from home
B. presidential visits bring inconvenience to the locals
C. if a person wants to be more productive, he must work from home
D. the former California governor was angry at the interruption during the interview
2.The incident of three-year-old son is described to prove that___
A. working from home has some drawbacks
B. working from home is a pleasant experience
C. Barack Obama has better working conditions than the author
D. it's unfortunate for the author to have a naughty boy
3. The reason why the author goes to the coffee shop is that __
A. he wants to get familiar with the people around B. he doesn't like working in his pyjamas at home
C. he becomes bored with being a commuter D. he needs some changes to get relaxation
4.The whole passage suggests that __
A. the author has to work from home B. any routine definitely means boredom
C. the author is a humorous person D. working from home contributes to avoiding duties

We spend so much time waiting to be loved, hoping love will find us, and looking for that special love.Unfortunately, that’s not usually how life works. To be loved, you should love and respect yourself as much as you do others. In order to love someone, you should love yourself.
●Stop comparing yourself to others.1.We all have different gifts.When you compare yourself to others for what they have, whether it is a car, a house, or a job, it makes you feel bad about yourself. Really be grateful about everything you have. Gratitude keeps your heart open to love.
●Practice receiving love. To truly love is to be able to receive it. When someone loves you, does some kind deeds to you, or says kind words, accept it.2.Know that you are worthy of love. It is important to accept a gift of love by others. You give yourself a chance to learn more about yourself that you are lovable.3.
●4.Write about your experiences, good and bad. When you write down good experiences, allow yourself to feel those feelings. When you remember bad experiences, allow yourself to feel self-compassion. Compassion is not self-pity, but rather willingness to accept one's own pain and regret.
