When Alok and I met in 1984， he was attracted by my passionate love of children， dogs， and poetry． I was drawn to his intelligence and his broad， comforting shoulders． Our marriage was very happy， and our sons， Viraj， an accountant， and Anurag， a lawyer， were warm， loving， and blessed with both a high level of integrity （正直） and a wicked sense of humour． It was as if I had everything I had wished for． When people said， "Life is not perfect，" I used to think， "Oh， but it very nearly is．"

But one Saturday night everything became different． Alok and I were about to leave our flat in Delhi for a party when all of a sudden he just passed away． It was a fatal cerebral stroke （脑中风） without warning．

I was terrified， but felt I owed it to myself， to Alok， and to the boys to rise above the loss and use the strength our love had given me to go forward． I also had to deal with some pressing problems． Where would I live？ Our home was a company-owned flat， and most of the facilities we'd enjoyed， like the club， medical coverage， and even the phone， came with his job．

I made the decision to try and do as much as I could on my own， without asking， or expecting， other people to help me． As a journalist， I had been privileged to share some truly exceptional life stories． I now had to handle my own life story， and accept change with as much courage as I could muster．

The journey ahead needed new skills． I finally found the right job， and today I am working in corporate communications． My life now is very different from what it was earlier． I understand that we are all given an inner strength， and that we truly grow up， regardless of age， when we learn to stand alone．

高二英语完形填空中等难度题查看答案及解析

When I recall my experiences of feeling heard and deeply understood by someone, I know how much the experiences helped me to cope with whatever I was dealing with at the time. Caring people who I have turned to in difficult times helped me the most by listening and asking about my feelings.

During one of my volunteer jobs at a  local HIV and cancer clinic, I found the helpfulness of empathic（感情移入的） listening. As a volunteer I was providing emotional support for people with health related problems. Empathic listening really made a difference on how patients felt about their health problems. By sharing about their pain and suffering and may willingness to listen, they felt less alone.

We can make life easier for each other by becoming a better listener and encouraging each other to share our feelings. We can become a better listener by avoiding giving advice and trying to solve problems unless we are asked to do so. Pressuring others to solve their life problems--"our ways"--is not helpful. Most people intuitively(凭直觉地） know how to solve their own problems. As a listener it's important to be patient and not to interrupt the speaker. Let them know it's OK to talk about their feelings and support them in feeling their feelings.

When one neither shares nor reaches out for support, he or she can remain a lonely mystery. Life can feel lonely when one keeps everything inside. Feeling alone with life problems can be worse than the problem itself. When we let a caring person listen to our life struggle, we will no longer feel alone with our struggle. Don't be afraid to ask your loved ones to take time to hear you out. Sometimes you have to ask for it. People cannot read your mind. Confiding in others can have a positive effect on our mood.

59.What made the author comfortable in difficult times?

A. Persuading      B. Sharing     C. Apologizing     D. Complaining

60.According to the second paragraph, we can know that ____.

A. The patients enjoyed listening to the author

B. The author found empathic listening was helpless

C. The patients didn't get on well with the author

D. The author did a good job at a cancer clinic

61.What does the underlined part "Confiding in others" in the last paragraph mean?

A. Telling others your secrets.      B. Reading others' mind

C. Listening to others.        D. Leaving others alone.

62.What's the main idea of this passage?

A. Listening and sharing can make you happier.

B. People know how to solve their own problems.

C. It is wrong to give advice to solve problems.

D. You should learn to believe in other people.
