2014年豫南五市联考二模英语试题答案(4)

      At first glance, I found out that the man was now somewhere in his mid-thirties, was very weak and had a generally aggressive character. He could not sit still and had a cough. He had not had a drink in four days. His hands were shaking and there was a scared look in his eyes.
     He told me that he began drinking about age 11 when his mother supplied him with it. He had tried to quit many times before but had not been able to.
" So .  what's different this time ?"I asked.
       "Because I'm starting to be mean to the people I love, but now I don't want to be.  I can see that  I'm changing into something else. "
       That answer helped change my attitude toward him. I could see the pain behind his eyes. Behind the appearance, there was a terrified person whose goodness was being claimed by the alcohol. He  was desperate for help, but not so sure that his condition could be changed.

      Have you ever noticed that the more you have the more you want? Let's face it. Thinking our life is good enough doesn't come naturally to many people. When we have high expectations of everything in life, we will run into disappointment. Only when we are aware that needs are different from desires can we live with satisfaction.   36
       37   Most people want things to be better than they are, or when things are going well, we forget to appreciate what we have. Learn to reflect on how much better things are than they could be. Write down 5 things you are grateful for right now.
      When we hold onto regrets from decisions we have made, it can really poison our well-being. Many people regret something they can no longer change, which ends up holding them back from moving forward in a more positive manner.    38    so work to stay present and be mindful of the cur- rent moment to find more joy and fulfillment.
