余余劲草英草英语unit1下解下解读2Unit 1 Living A Full Life 12.Something similar happens to many people who experience a terrifying physical threat.In that moment,our sense of invulnerability is pierced,and the self-protective mental armor that normally stands between us and our perceptions of the world is torn away.Our everyday life scripts-our habits,self-perceptions and assumptions go out the window,and we are left with a raw experience of the world.13.Still,actually implementing these changes,as well as fully coming to terms with a new reality,usually takes conscious effort.Being willing and able to take on this process is one of the major differences between those who grow through adversity and those who are destroyed by it.The people who find value in adversity arent the toughest or the most rational.What makes them different is that they are able to incorporate what happened into the story of their own life.Comprehension Comprehension 14.Eventually,they may find themselves freed in ways they never imagined.Survivors often say they have become more tolerant and forgiving of others,capable of bringing peace to formerly troubled relationships.They say that material ambitions suddenly seem silly and the pleasures of friends and family paramount-and that the crisis allowed them to recognize life in line with their new priorities.15.People who have grown from adversity often feel much less fear,despite the frightening things theyve been through.They are surprised by their own strength,confident that they can handle whatever else life throws at them.“People dont say that what they went through was wonderful,”said Tedeschi.“They werent meaning to grow from it.They were just trying to survive.But in retrospect,what they gained was more than they ever anticipated.”16.In his recent book Satisfaction,Emory University psychiatrist Gregory Berns points to extreme endurance athletes who push themselves to their physical limits for days at a time.They cycle through the same sequence of sensations as do trauma survivors:self-loss,confusion and,finally a new sense of mastery.For ultramarathoners,who regularly run 100-mile races that last more than 24 hours,vomiting and hallucinating are normal.After a day and night of running without stopping or sleeping,competitors sometimes forget who they are and what they are doing.17.For a more common example of growth through adversity,look to one of lifes biggest challenges:parenting.Having a baby has been shown to decrease levels of happiness.The sleep deprivation and necessity of putting aside personal pleasure in order to care for an infant mean that people with newborns are more likely to be depressed and find their marriage on the rocks.Nonetheless,over the long haul,raising a child is one of the most rewarding and meaningful of all human undertakings.The short-term sacrifice of happiness is outweighed by other benefits,like fulfillment,altruism and the chance to leave a meaningful legacy.18.Ultimately,the emotional rewa4rd can compensate for the pain and difficulty of adversity.This perspective does not cancel out what happened,but it puts it all in a different context:that its possible to live an extraordinary rewarding life even within the constraints and struggles we face.In some form or other,says King,we all must go through this realization.“Youre not going to be the person you thought you were,but heres who you are going to be instead and that turns out to be a pretty great life.”ComprehensionComprehension In that moment,and the self-protective mental armor that normally stands between

because GNH depends on a series of subjective judgments about well-being,governments may be able to define GNH in a way that suits their interests.In the case of Bhutan,for instance,they say that the government expelled about one hundred thousand people and stripped them of their Bhutanese citizenship on the grounds that the deportees were ethnic Nepalese who had settled in the country illegally,though Bhutans policies in this regard have no direct or obvious relevance to its use of GNH as an indicator guiding policy.More to be read:GNH value is proposed to be an index function of the total average per capita of the following measures:Economic Wellness;Environmental Wellness;Physical Wellness;Mental Wellness;Workplace Wellness;Social Wellness;Political Wellness.Thanks for
