The quality of patience goes a long way toward your goal of creating a more peaceful and loving self. The more patient you are, the more accepting you will be of what life is, rather than insisting that life be exactly as you would like it to be. Without patience, life is extremely frustrating. You are easily annoyed, bothered, and irritated. Patience adds a dimension of ease and acceptance to your life. It’s essential for inner peace. Becoming more patient involves opening your heart to the present moment, even if you don’t like it If you are stuck in a traffic jam, late for an appointment, being patient would mean keeping yourself from building a mental snowball before your thinking get out of hand and gently reminding yourself to relax. It might also be a good time to breathe as well as an opportunity to remind yourself that, in the bigger scheme of things, being late is "small stuff".
Patience is a quality of heart that can be greatly enhanced with deliberate practice. An effective way that I have found to deepen my own patience is to create actual practice periods—periods of time that I set up in my mind to practice the art of patience. Life itself becomes a classroom, and the curriculum is patience. You can start with as little as five minutes and build up your capacity for patience over time. What you’ll discover is truly amazing. Your intention to be patient, especially if you know it’s only for a short while, immediately strengthens your capacity for patience. Patience is one of those special qualities where success feeds on itself. Once you reach little milestone (里程碑)—five minutes of successful patience—you’ll begin to see that you do indeed have the capacity to be patient, even for longer periods of time. Over time, you may even become a patient person.
Being patient will help you to keep your perspective. You’ll see even a difficult situation, say your present challenge, isn’t "life or death" but simply a minor obstacle that must be dealt with Without patience, the same scenario can become a major emergency complete with yelling, frustration, hurt feelings, and high blood pressure. [br] In the first paragraph, the expression "building a mental snowball" can be best replaced by _____.
选项
A、imagining a big snowball
B、awaiting a result calmly
C、taking a deep breath
D、losing your patience
答案
D
解析
词义推测题。句中短语keep…from有助于理解考点的意义,building a mental snowball是一种暗喻,作者想表达人的情绪像滚雪球似的积聚直至失控之意,根据上下文可判断出该表达法在此处的意义为选项D。本文的主题是patience,而选项A、B、C都与主题无关。
