Once, Buddha was walking from one town to another with some of his followers. This was in the initial

days. While they were traveling, they happened to pass a lake. They stopped there and Buddha told one of his

followers, “I am thirsty. Please get me some water from that lake there”.

The follower walked up to the lake. When he reached it, he noticed that some people were washing clothes

in the water and, right at that moment, a bullock cart started crossing the lake right at the edge of it. As a result,

the water became very muddy, very dirty. The follower thought, “How can I give this muddy water to Buddha to

drink?!” So he came back and told the Buddha, “The water there is very muddy. I don’t think it is fit to drink.”

So, the Buddha said, let us take a little rest here by the tree. After about half an hour, again Buddha asked

the same follower to go back to the lake and get him some water to drink. The follower obediently (顺从地 )

went back to the lake. This time he found that the lake had absolutely clear water in it. The mud had settled

down and the water above it looked fit to be had. So he collected some water in a pot and brought it to the

Buddha.

The Buddha looked at the water, and then he looked up at the follower and said, “See, you let the water be

and the mud settled down on its own. You got clear water. It didn’t require any effort”.

Our mind is also like that. When it is disturbed, just let it be. Give it a little time and it will settle down on

its own. You don’t have to put in any effort to calm it down. We can judge and best decisions of our life when

we stay calm.

4. Why did Buddha asked his follower to collect water?

A. Because they were travelling. B．Because they were passing a

river. C．Because Buddha was too tired to go on. D．Because Buddha wanted a drink.

6．What can you infer about the follower?

A．He is reliable and thoughtful. B．He is humorous and intelligent.

7．What is the best title for the text?

C．Buddha and His Follower D．Efforts will Pay Off.

Have you ever noticed that some difficult situations tend to repeat themselves? Does it seem as if you

married or dated the same kind of person several times in different bodies with different names? Have you run

into the same type of boss over and over again? If you don't deal well with authority figures at home, then you

will have an opportunity to deal with them out in the world.

You may try desperately to avoid these repeated difficult situations, which seem to have become your set

patterns, but they will eventually catch up with you. The only way you can free yourself of them is to shift your

perspective on them seriously and persistently. To face the challenge means you need to bravely accept the fact

that something within you keeps drawing you to the same kind of person or issue repeatedly in your life. This is

no easy task, since it means you have to change, and to change is not always easy. Staying just as you certainly

is comfortable in its familiarity, but does not help you advance spiritually.

Rising to the challenge of identifying and releasing your patterns forces you to admit that the way you have

been doing things isn't working. However, the good news is that by identifying and releasing your patterns, you

actually learn how to change. In order to facilitate your process of change, you will need willingness and

patience.

When struggling to make a change, ask yourself, "How willing am I, really, to make this change?" If you

truly want to change, you will make a commitment to the process of it. If you absolutely hate getting stuck in

traffic, chances are that you need a little work in the area of patience. And, chances are, you will probably get

stuck in more traffic jams than someone who has patience. It is not because the universe has a sense of humor.

You just notice and care about the traffic more than someone who has patience. Remember, you just need

willingness and a little patience. Once you master these, you will most likely find the challenge of identifying

and releasing your patterns far less frightening.

8. How can you get rid of repeated difficult situations in your life?

A. By trying your best to avoid those disappointing situations.

B. By taking a different attitude towards previous life.

C. By gathering up the courage to change your identity.

D. By changing your viewpoint on them with great determination.

9．What's the author's attitude towards the idea of staying just as you are?

A．Disapproving. B．Skeptical C．Supportive. D．Casual

10. What does the underlined word "facilitate" in Paragraph 3 probably mean?

A. promote B．postpone C．influence D．overlook

11. What is the effect of mastering willingness and patience according to the passage?

A．Guiding you to identify your old patterns. B．Making your changes become easier.

C．Challenging you with difficult patterns. D．Arousing your inner desire to challenge yourself.

When making choices, people assume that they pick what they like. However, research suggests that we

like something strictly because we have chosen it. In other words, we dislike things we don’t choose. And this

phenomenon has existed since we were babies.

In an experiment, US researchers brought several 10 to 20-month-old babies into a lab and gave them two

same bright and colorful soft blocks to play with. They set each block far apart, so the babies had to crawl to one

or the other—a random choice. After the baby chose one of the toys, the researchers took it away and came back

with a new option. The babies could then pick either the toy they didn’t play with before, or a brand-new toy.

It turned out that the babies reliably chose to play with the new toy rather than the one they had not chosen.

In follow-up experiments, when researchers instead helped choose which toy the baby would play with, the

phenomenon disappeared. “As if they were saying, ‘Hmm, I didn’t choose that object last time, because I guess

I didn’t like it very much” said Lisa Feigenson, co-author of the study.

This is a very important phenomenon in life, Feigenson noted. Adults will less like the thing they didn’t

choose, even if they had no real preference in the first place. It looks like babies do just the same.

It shows that the act of making choices changes how we feel about our options. The random choices might

become our preferences. “They are really not choosing based on whether they are novel or what they prefer,”

said Alex Silver, co-author of the study.

This new finding explains why adults build unconscious preference when they make choices between the
