I struggled to find a place where I could get service. When I did, I called my mom. It went through! In a shaky vo
17、ice, I said, “Mom?” and then the call dropped. More than 1,500 miles away, my mom instantly knew something was wrong. She called the Denver Police Department and was directed to the U.S. Forest Service. This was how I was introduced to John, an operator from the U.S. Forest Service. Following Johns
18、instruction on the phone, I finally escaped from the woods. I breathed a sigh of relief. Then my phone rang, and it was John, making sure I was still going in the right direction.

The author went in the wrong direction.CSome scientists will say it is impossible to read minds. They will also tell you that you can make educated guesses
22、on what a person might be thinking or feeling. Perhaps there really is nothing mysterious about the power to read minds. Perhaps it is simply human sense based on observation and educated guesses after all, but thats really a useful ability to learn.Learn body language. How a person moves and holds
23、his hands, and even what his eyes are doing are actually telling about what is going on inside ones head. For example, pupils(瞳孔) tend to grow larger when you are interested in or excited about something. If you are talking to someone and making eye contact, finding his pupils are large and round, c
24、hances are that they are not feigning interest in the conversation. Someone biting his nails is probably nervous. Someone who folds his arms across his chest when he is not cold is probably trying to put a barrier between you and him.Learn to mentally put yourself in anothers place. Scientists have
25、recently discovered that your brain has neurons(神经元) that become active when you watch someone do something the same as you did yourself. So when you are able to open yourself to understanding how other people are feeling, you can figure out reasons and predict future actions, reactions, and even th
26、oughts.Sometimes you can use Extra Sensory Perception (ESP) (超感官知觉) to read someones mind. This does not mean you will literally be able to read ones mind like a book. Instead, you will receive impressions or feelings, which are difficult to explain.To improve your ESP abilities, take up meditation(

31、pecially among young people. This is a very bad thingperfectionsm is linked to anxiety, depression, and many other problems-but the lucky thing is that were no longer talking as if it were something to be proud of. In todays winner-takes-all economy, perfectionism is an entirely forgivable suffering
32、. But it is a suffering, because perfectionism is the belief that anything short of the very best is a shameful failure. It makes people be a miserable(痛苦的) high achiever, or worse: some studies suggest its actually a barrier to highe achievement.One common respondse to perfectionism is to encourage
33、 the sufferer to see that his fears are exaggerated(夸大的), and that things you wont really be so bad if he fails the exam, gets criticized for his work performance or lets the house get messy. Perfectionism means a life spent unhappily leaning(倾斜) into the future, because no matter how well you perfo
34、rm on any given challenge, theres always the next one to stress you out. So it makes sense to help people see when that next challenge arrives, an imperfect performance wouldnt mean catastrophe.

Therefore, a better way is to let you realize that its not that your attempts to live perfectly mig
36、ht fail, but that they have failed: perfection is already a lost cause. From childhood until today, youve been failing to learn countless skills, develop countless friendships and achieve countless goals, only because attention is limited. Focusing on anything means not focusing on almost everything
37、. Life naturally contains some types of failure, which makes it strange to call it a failure at all. If everyone is sure to miss the target, clearly the trouble is with the target. 32. What can we know about perfectionism from paragraph 1?A. It can give people a great sense of achievement. B. Its a
38、result of the winner-takes-all economy. C. Its a necessary quality of successful people. D. It can be harmful to peoples mental health. 33.

39、eaning into the future if you fail this time.D. Performing well on any given challenge. 34. According to the author, a better solution to perfectionism is to realize that _.A. wed better not set too high targetsB. its wrong to try to go after perfection.C. its already too late to learn countless ski

42、ision might result in you picking up another later on. But if you decide not to smoke that first cigarette and make a decision to focus your attention on somewhere else, your desire will eventually weaken and you will become smoke-free.38 When you make a decision, act on it. Commit to making a real
43、decision. Whats a real decision? Its when you decide on something, and that decision is carried out through action. Its pointless making a decision in your head, but not doing anything about it. Thats the same as not making a decision at all.Tell others about your decisions.Sometimes telling other p
