Douglas Grace talks about his ideal city of the future.

    I see the city of the future in three zones——inner, middle and outer. In the inner zone there will be no private cars. Public transport will be free and there will only be ambulances, fire engines, taxis and police cars. This inner zone will be the residential(住宅的) and recreational(娱乐的) area of the city. People will live there and go out to enjoy themselves——to cinemas and restaurants. There will be parks and open spaces, trees and lakes, schools and universities. This way, when people are at home, they can go out easily and safely.

    Just outside the inner zone there will be big car parks for all private cars.

    The banks and most of the shops and hospitals will be in the middle zone. These are things that people don’t need every day.

    All the factories and offices will be in the outer zone. People will travel out of the center to work, and back to the center in the evenings. The inner zone will be cleaner and better to live in and there will be more space for industry on the outside.

    This is my ideal city of the future—— a very beautiful place! But I don’t really think things will ever be like that!

Where will people live and go out to enjoy themselves?

    A. In the middle zone.

    B. In the inner zone.

Where will big car parks be?

    A. Just outside the middle zone.

    B. Just inside the middle zone.

    C. Just outside the inner zone.

    D. Just inside the inner zone.

What will be in the middle zone?

    A. The banks,hospitals and schools.

    B. The banks,hospitals and police stations.

    C. The banks,schools and car parks.

    D. The banks,hospital and most of the shops.

Linda Evans was my best friend—like the sister I never had. We did everything together:piano lessons,movies,swimming,horseback riding.

When I was 13,my family moved away. Linda and I kept in touch through letters,and we saw each other on special times—like my wedding(婚礼) and Linda’s. Soon we were busy with children and moving to new homes,and we wrote less often. One day a card that I sent came back,stamped “Address(地址) Unknown” I had no idea how to find Linda.

Over the years,I missed Linda very much. I wanted to share(分享) happiness of my children and then grandchildren. And I needed to share my sadness when my brother and then mother died. There was an empty place in my heart that only a friend like Linda could fill.

One day I was reading a newspaper when I noticed a photo of a young woman who looked very much like Linda and whose last name was Wagman—Linda’s married name. “There must be thousands of Wagmans,” I thought,but I still wrote to her.

She called as soon as she got my letter. “Mrs.Tobin!”she said excitedly,“Linda Evans Wagman is my mother.”

Minutes later I heard a voice that I knew very much,even after 40 years,laughed and cried and caught up on each other’s lives. Now the empty place in my heart is filled. And there’s one thing that Linda and I know for sure:We won’t lose each other again!

Step to Discovering Your Passion

By Julie Jordan Scott

    Even before the first tip, you simply must get out a notebook, journal, piece of paper, napkin … SOMETHING to write on to save your discoveries! These tips will only help if you pursue them, so please either take a moment to find writing tools NOW or print this out and promise yourself to complete this exercise later. It may take you some thinking time to get it done . . . and now . . . here are your tips . . . . .

1. Find Your Joy Factor

    Look at the whole of your life history. When did you experience the most sustained period of Joy? What were you doing then? Where were you? Who were you with? How did it feel?

2. What Are Your 3 Most Favorite things to do?

    If you had a free day with NO commitments, where would you be found? What would you be doing with whom?

3. In what area do you excel? (NO MODESTY ALLOWED HERE!)

    Truly, what are you complimented on a lot? This could be ANYTHING.

4. What do you most want to be remembered for?

    If you were designing your epitaph(墓者铭), what would you want it to say? (NOT what your Mom wants, or your SPOUSE(配偶的一方) wants or your third cousin twice removed, but what do YOU want your headstone to say?)

5. If you had a magic wand(魔杖), what would you change about your life TODAY?

    How would it look compared to how it looks now? which aspects of your life ARE changeable, both short term and long term?

6. How does your Joy factor overlap with your favorite things and the areas in which you excel? Do the areas in which you excel bring YOU joy, or are they really for someone else . . . . . do you see which are obvious matches, and which do not fit? Those that overlap, that bring YOU the most Joy, are most likely the things that would bring you into Passionate Living.

7. What is the first even teeny tiny step you can take to living out your Passion as you have defined in #6?

    Take some time to really think this one through . . . . . . concentrate and focus, and then you will be able to start the the next step . . . BUILDING YOUR ROAD MAP.
