I've spent a lng time thinking abut ne f the lessns life has t ffer ---uncertainty.I ften hear, “Nthing culd have prepared us fr this pandemic.”While it came as a surprise,sme f us have had t deal
with times f great uncertainty befre.
This was the case fr my family when my father began falling ver.We wuld blame the ice.Then just the rad.“Wh makes these things s high?”we wndered.Then,he slwed.He began t drag his feet
“Well,”we said,“he's getting lder.”
When his speech became wrse,it became harder t explain.When did he last see a dctr anyway?We
searched the internet as he wrsened ---because we felt real medical attentin was nt required.
Uncertainty.It's uncmfrtable.It makes yur stmach tighten.If yu dn't fight it,it will seep (渗入)
thrugh yur bdy,lighting yur brain up with anxiety.When a neurlgist(神经病学家)explained the
prblem,it wasn't what we wanted t hear.Instead,we pened a Pandra's bx f even mre unknwns.
When we fund ut he had ALS(Amytrphic Lateral Sclersis(肌肉菱缩性侧面硬化病),the uncertainty became a burden.He was lsing cntrl f his muscles,his speech,ability t swallw ---and we
were paralyzed n hw t prepare.
ALS is cruel.It traps yu in yur bdy.When the future lks s dark,yu have t take cmfrt in the tiniest pleasures.I wish I'd dne mre.But I was new t uncertainty.I'd never experienced such a lack f
cntrl.I was fcused n slving prblem that culdn't be slved.
I wrried abut hw my father wuld get wrse.I read everything I culd t try and help his situatin, but there was nthing I culd d.But my dad didn't live lng enugh fr me t prepare fr his cnditin t
get wrse.Life desn't g accrding t plan and there is a difference between
preparatin and wrry.
As we battle glbal uncertainty,it is teaching us the same lessn.A lessn abut being humble.Abut the fact that yu cannt save smething yu lve alne.If COVID-19 is disturbing everyne,we shuld cnsider what we can learn.These lessns are hard,teaching us t hld n t what matters and hw t let g

When I was a little girl,a cuple in ur cmmunity went thrugh a tragedy.They lst a yung child and were in deep despair.Shrtly afterward,my mther ran int the father at the lcal supermarket.He turned t my mther and said,“Yur husband saved ur life.He was the ne mre than anyne else wh helped us get
thrugh this incredible lss."
My mther wanted t knw what message f slace was given t lift them frm the depths f despair S back at hme,she asked my father abut their cnversatin numerus times,but my father insisted that
he had said nthing
A few weeks later the cuple came ver t ur hme.After siting dwn fr a few minutes,my mther gently said,“Yu tld me that my husband helped yu the mst when yu went thrugh yur awful sadness.
What did he say?"
“Rebbetzin,yu husband did nt say ne wrd.He just came ver t ur hme and walked ver t me withut saying anything.And then he reached ver t me,tk my hands int his and hugged me.I lked up and saw tears falling frm his yes.Yu cannt imagine what that felt like.Yur husband felt my pain.I
was nt sitting alne with my suffering.”
My mther was quiet,absrbing the message this man was giving.
“N yur husband did nt speak.I didn't need him t give me wrds.I needed his heart and sul.”
When I recall this stry,I realize the truth.
When having smene in ur lives wh is ging thrugh difficult,we are ften at a lss.What d we
say?Hw d we make it all better?What is the greatest git we can give t ur lved nes?
We tend t think that we must fill space with wrds.But when yu want t give f yurself,give a listening heart.Smetimes a persn in pain needs yu t stay silent.Just nw that yu are there fr them. Perhaps yu can't fix anything r take away the pain,but yu can feel it.With the silence cmes sympathy,
understanding and empathy.And yu share the lad.

There's a pht in my cllectin that I pull ut frm time t time t remind myself f an ld vacatin. It's a picture f me frm the late 1970s n a bench in Lndn's Victria Statin,my head resting against a
wall,eyes clsed with tiredness,clthes messed up
I used t lve that sht.It was evidence f my leisure f travel,f interruptin frm the ffice:miles
cvered,sights seen,train statins raced thrugh,gals achieved.
Hwever,as I leave wrk t g n vacatin trail this summer,I take alng smething extra. This traveling cmpanin has a habit f ruining trips with feelings f guilt ---the guilt that cmes frm attempting t
vacatin while thinking f the jb.
The cnflict between the time we want ff and the guilt we feel when we actually give in t leisure is a lng-running battle that has gne t far,driven by an ver-scheduling craze.It has made many feel as if
their free mments are a frm f truancy(玩忽职守).
It's hard t take it easy when yu've been prgrammed nt t.We have been taught fr generatins that
wrk is the nly gal
Time that is unfilled is evil,we are led t believe,and unplanned enjyment shuld be avided.This is reinfrced(加深)tday by a wrkplace culture that wants yu t believe that advancement depends n yur
staying n the jb.
Research nw shws,hwever,that leisure time can d smething jb advancement and mney can't Leisure activities increase yur desire t wrk,leadership skills,yur sense f awareness and yur ability t
change.
Free time als prmtes a psitive md and sense f well-being,because it develps self-wrth.Deep
dwn,everyne knws we need time ff t make ur lives better.
On hliday,using yur prductive utput as a measure f yurself desn't wrk.This is because a vacatin isn't abut utput;it's abut input ---explring,learning,reflecting.The magic f a hliday is in
the experience itself.This is the same as life satisfactin;it can't be measured,nly felt.
The best part f a vacatin isn't ging smewhere else;it's being where yu are,fully invlved in the
experience.
32.The authr mentins the pht at the beginning because
A.it brings back gd memries f a leisurely tur
B.it shwshw exhausting leisure travel can be
C.it shws the writer nce cnsidered leisure travel as a gal
D.it prves interruptins frm the ffice d nt spil the enjyment f travel
33.What des the underlined phrase “This traveling cmpanin”in paragraph 3 refer t?
A.The feeling f guilt fr nt wrking.
B.Interruptins frm the ffice.
C.Enjying leisure time.
D.Thinking f ne's gals
34.What is ne f the main benefits f leisure time accrding t the article?
A.It imprves yur prductivity.
B.It is gd fr persnal develpment
C.It leads directly t jb advancement.
D.It helps yu see yur gals in life mre clearly
35.What des the authr suggest peple d while n vacatin?
A.Take leisure turs like he des.
B.Ignre jb advancement and mney.
C.Measure the utput frm time t time.
D.Enjy the experience f being n vacatin.

Hw Arts Prmte Our Ecnmy
When mst peple think f the arts,they imagine the end prduct,the beautiful painting,a wnderful piece f music,r an award-winning perfrmance in the theater.(36) Unfrtunately,the ecnmic
impact f the arts is ften verlked and badly judged.
The arts create jbs that help develp the ecnmy.Any given perfrmance takes a tur bus full f
artists,technical experts,musicians,r writers t create an appealing piece f art.These peple can earn a living wage fr their prfessinal knwledge and skills.(37) Digital media experts,phtgraphers and advertising agents are hired t sell tickets and prmte the event.Accrding t the Dallas Area Cultural Advcacy Calitin,arts agencies emply mre than 10,000 peple as full-r part-time emplyees r
independent cntractrs.
(38) In 2005,when the Bishp Arts Theatre was dnated t ur twn,the lcatin was cnsidered a pr area f twn.After investing mre than $1 millin in recnstructing the building,we began prducing a full seasn f theater perfrmances,jazz cncerts,and year-rund arts educatin prgrams in
2008.Besides tickets,sme jazz lvers nearby will pay their transprt fares t and frm the events
Arts cntribute t cultural develpment(39) When they gather tgether,they will share theii experiences and renew their energy.As-a-result,cultures find the way t exchange,and ecnmy can be
advanced
It is wrng t assume arts grups cannt make a prfit.If yu are a student studying the arts,dds are
that yu have been ill-advised t have a plan B.(40)
A.Anther grup is needed t help market the event.
B.Abve analysis in mind,yu needn't wrry abut yur career and have an alternative plan.
C.The arts bst the develpment f ecnmy thrughut a cmmunity despite the side effects.
D.In fact,arts grups bring brader value t ur cmmunities,especially in ecnmy AB.A successful arts neighbrhd creates a series f effects thrughut a cmmunity.
AC.Artists and audience are all frm diverse backgrunds.
AD.Culture binds tgether nt nly hearts and suls,but the entire sciety
