  Last summer, I traveled to Meixian County with my friends.It is a small county at the foot of Taibai Mountain in Shanxi Province.We stayed there for one week and I   1   my vacation because of the beautiful scenery at the top of the mountain.?

  I will   2   forget the day when we climbed the main peak(山顶).The   3   in that area changes very quickly:it was sunny in the early morning when we set out,   4   it began to rain heavily when we were only half way up.Soon, we were all   5   and some of us wanted to go home.They said:“There is nothing   6   here.We came to see the scenery,   7   the pouring rain!” However, the guide   8  :“Since we have got wet already, why not just go on with our journey?”?

  So we carried on up the mountain and,   9   we even noticed, the rain stopped and the sun was smiling again.When we reached the top of the peak, the view was unique.The sky was   10   and the air fresh.The gentle wind made us feel cool.All the clouds were just like waves in the ocean,   11   and falling under our feet.We could only see the peaks of mountains, as if they were   12   floating sparsely(稀疏的)in the ocean.It was a really magical experience.

  While we were enjoying the scene, the guide said   13  , “You see, I knew that there would be no rain above the clouds.” It is   14  .While it may rain below the clouds, the sun is still there above them.

  You will never see the sun   15   you don’t try your best to climb to the top of the mountain.If we had stopped and gone home when the rain was very heavy, we would never have seen the beautiful scenery   16   the clouds.I think this is also true in   17  

  As the song says:“You won’t see the rainbow unless you have gone through the thunder and storm.” I think in the   18  , whenever I have any difficulties in my life, I will remember the   19   from the top of Taibai Mountain and the   20   which touched my heart deeply:there is no rain above the clouds.

One day in my class,Maria shared her feelings about money,“Money worries me.I think I want to live without money because I hate it.I HATE MONEY.”We were all touched by Maria's words as they reminded us of the spiritual burdens that money managing can bring to us.After class I offered to help Maria deal with her financial problems.She hesitated to accept my offer,and I could see from the expression on her face that she was afraid of what it might involve.I quickly promised her that I wouldn't make her do more than she was able to.I told her frankly that I didn't enjoy managing my money any more than she did hers and wouldn't burden her with guilt,judgments,or impossible tasks.All I would ask her to do was to let me help her look at her fears and try to make some sense of them.

Maria still resisted my offer,and I can remember the excuses she gave me as they were the repeated complaints I had heard from so many people.“I'll never understand money,”she said.“My facts are meaningless.”“I don't deserve to have money.”“I never have enough.”“I have too little to manage.”“My financial position isn't worth looking at.”and the most devastating one of all,“I just can't do it.”

Going home that day,I couldn't get Maria out of my mind:her attitude conveyed the same negativity and  fear that I believed annoyed many people.I was sure it was this attitude that prevented people from managing their money effectively.My counseling(咨询)has taught me that these anxieties are inseparably connected to our self??doubts and fear for survival.Many of us are terrified of handling our money because we don't believe we can do it well,and to do it wrong would put our very existence at risk.

On a deeper level we know that money is not the source of life,but sense of worth drives us to act as if it were.It locks us up in self??doubts and prevents us from tapping into the true source of our management power,our spirit.

The underlined word“devastating”in Paragraph 2 probably means ________.

A.convincing     B.interesting     C.shocking       D.valuable

Maria's words moved the author and others because they were ________.

A.in the same financial trouble          B.in the same financial condition

C.of the same family background      D.of the same feeling over the issue

As for money managing,the author intended to tell Maria how to ________.

A.overcome her fears                B.make wise decisions

C.avoid making mistakes           D.learn the necessary skills

Maria wouldn't take the author's offer of help for fear of________.

A.being forced to share her money with others

B.having to do something beyond her reach

C.being found guilty of making impossible errors

D.showing her judgment about money

According to the author,people's anxieties about managing money result from their understanding of money as the only source of ________.

A.life        B.values   C.spirit                    D.power
