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?

When I come across a good article in reading newspapers, I often want to cut and keep it. But just as I am about to do so, I find the article on the side is as much interesting. It may be a discussion of the way to in good health, or about how to behave and conduct oneself in society. If I cut the front article, the opposite one is likely to damage, leaving out half of it or keeping the text the title. Therefore, the scissors would before they start, .halfway done when I find out the result.

Sometimes two things are to be done at the same time, both worth your .You can only take up one of them, the other has to wait or be up. But you know the future is unpredictable(不可预料) — the changed situation may not allow you to do what is left . Thus you are in a difficult position and feel sad. How that nice chances and brilliant ideas should gather around all at once? It may happen that your life greatly on your preference of one choice to the other.

In fact that is what is like: we are often with the two opposite sides of a thing which are both desirable like a newspaper cutting. It often occurs that our attention is drawn to one thing only we get into another. The may be more important than the latter and give rise to a divided mind.

Cleverness is a gift while kindness is a choice. Gifts are easy—they’re given after all. Choices can be hard.

I got the idea to start Amazon 16 years ago. I came across the fact that the Internet usage was growing at 2,300 percent per year. I’d never seen or heard of anything that grew that fast, and the idea of building an online bookstore with millions of titles was very exciting to me. I had just turned 30 years old, and I’d been married for a year. I told my wife Mac kenzie that I wanted to quit my job and go to do this crazy thing that probably wouldn’t work since most start-ups don’t and I wasn’t sure what to expect. Mac kenzie told me I should go for it. As a young boy, I’d been a garage inventor. I’d always wanted to be an inventor, and she wanted me to follow my passion.

I was working at a financial firm in New York City with a bunch of very smart people and I had a brilliant boss that I much admired. I went to my boss and told him I wanted to start a company selling books on the Internet. He took me on a long walk in Central Park, listened carefully to me, and finally said, “That sounds like a really good idea, but it would be an even better idea for someone who didn’t already have a good job.” That logic made some sense to me, and he convinced me to think about it for 48 hours before making a final decision. Seen in that light, it was really a difficult choice, but finally, I decided I had to give it a shot. I didn’t think I’d regret trying and failing. And I suspected I would always be haunted (萦绕) by a decision to not try at all.

After much consideration, I took the less safe path to follow my passion, and I’m proud of that choice. For all of us, in the end, we are our choice.

1.What inspired the author with the idea of building an online bookstore?

A. His dream of being an inventor.

B. The support of his wife.

C. The greatly increasing usage of the Internet.

D. The successful boss that he admired.

2. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined sentence?

A. The idea of not trying would keep coming to his mind and disturb him.

B. He would be very excited if he tried it out.

C. He would be always having a doubt if he didn’t try.

D. The decision to not try the online bookstore would terrify him.

3.We can know from the passage that ________.

A. the boss thought the idea was suitable for the author

B. the author might not regret if he failed the attempt

C. the author wanted someone else to try the idea

D. the author might go back to his boss if he failed

4.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A. Cleverness and Kindness

B. The Starting of Amazon

C. Following My Passion

D. We Are What We Choose
