(excerpt )The quicker you let go of
86、 old cheese, the sooner you find new cheese. After a while, Haw made his way back to Cheese Station C and found Hem. He offered Hem bits of New Cheese, but was turned down. Hem appreciated his friends gesture but said, “I dont think I would like New Cheese. Its not what Im used to. I want my own Che
87、ese back and Im not going to change until I get what I want. ”Haw just shook his head in disappointment and reluctantly went back out on his own. As here turned to the farthest point he had reached in the Maze, he missed his friend, but realized he liked what he was discovering. Even before he found
88、 what he hoped would be a great supply of New Cheese, if ever, he knew that what made him happy wasnt just having Cheese. He was happy when he wasnt being run by his fear. He liked what he was doing now. Knowing this, Haw didnt feel as weak as he did when he stayed in Cheese Station C with no Cheese
89、. Just realizing he was not letting his fear stop him, and knowing that he had taken a new direction, nourished him and gave him strength. Now he felt that it was just a question of time before he found what he needed. In fact, he sensed he had already found what he was looking for. He smiled as he
90、realized: It is safer to search in the maze than remain in a Cheeseless Station Haw realized again, as he had once before, that what you are afraid of is never as bad as what you imagine. The fear you let build up in your mind is worse than the situation that actually exists. Hed been so afraid of n
91、ever finding New Cheese that he hadnt even wanted to start looking. But since starting his journey, he had found enough Cheese in the corridors to keep him going. Now he looked forward to finding more. Just looking ahead was becoming exciting. His old thinking had been clouded by his worries and fea
92、rs. He used to think about not having enough Cheese, or not having it last as long as he wanted. He used to think more about what could go wrong than what could go right. 导语: 在本章中唧唧踏上了独自一人的旅行, 在它的旅行中会发生什么样的故事呢? 1. appreciatevt. 欣赏; 感激2. reluctantlyadv. 不情愿地3. nourishvt. 抚养; 滋养形容词、副词的比较级是英语中常见的用法。在本章

(节选2)越早放弃旧的奶酪, 你就会越早发现新的奶酪。不久, 唧唧就回到了奶
95、酪C站, 找到了哼哼。他给了哼哼一些新的小块奶酪, 但被拒绝了。哼哼很感激朋友的心意, 但是他说: “我不喜欢新奶酪, 这不是我习惯吃的那一种。我只要我自己的奶酪回来。除非可以得到我想要的东西, 否则我是不会改变主意的。”唧唧失望地摇了摇头, 不情愿地一个人踏上了自己的旅程。当走到他到达过的迷宫最深处时, 他怀念起他的朋友来, 但他明白, 他喜欢的还是他的探险过程。虽然以前他希望的是得到充足的新奶酪, 但现在他清楚使自己快乐的并不仅仅是奶酪而已。他高兴的是, 他不再受自己的恐惧感的驱使。他喜欢自己正在做的事情。明白了这一点, 唧唧不再像在奶酪C站时, 没有奶酪的日子里感到那样的虚弱了。他知道,
96、 他不会再让恐惧感阻碍自己。他选择了一个新的方向, 他的身心得到了滋养, 体力得到加强。现在, 他觉得, 找到自己想要的东西只是一个时间问题。事实上, 他感到他已经找到了他一直在寻找的东西。当他认识到这一点的时候, 他不禁微笑起来: 在迷宫中搜寻比停留在没有奶酪的地方更安全。唧唧还认识到, 就像他曾经体会过的那样, 你所害怕的东西根本没有你想像的那样糟糕, 在你心里形成的恐惧比你的实际处境要更坏。他曾经是如此害怕找不到新的奶酪, 以至于他根本不想开始去寻找。然而一旦开始寻找的旅程, 他就发现迷宫的走廊中有足够的奶酪使他继续找下去。现在, 他期待着找到更多的奶酪。只要朝前看, 他就会因为有所期待而兴奋起来。他过去的思想被恐惧和忧虑蒙蔽了。过去考虑的总是没有奶酪, 或者没有可以维持足够长时间的奶酪。以前总是觉得会把事情做不好, 而不是考虑把事情做好。关闭Word文档返回原板块
