13、l.A Pathway to Meaning in LifeWhen it comes to a meaningful life, we might think of love, happiness and health. A life filled with meaning is what most of us want for ourselves. Then, what makes a meaningful life?Many researchers agree that a meaningful life comes down to three factors: having long-
14、term goals, believing that ones life matters, and feeling that ones life fits together and “makes sense”.But we believe there is more to consider. Sometimes life enables us to experience small moments of beauty. When people are open to appreciating such experiences, these moments may improve how the
15、y see their own life. We call this experiential appreciation (EA). EA is about the person feeling connected to events and being able to appreciate the value within the connection. It shows the discovery of and admiration for lifes beauty.We recently set out to better understand EA in studies. We wer
16、e interested in whether EA was also tied to general judgment of meaning in life. If so, it could be a factor for meaningfulness.In the first study, we had people rate (评估) their support for different methods of reducing stress. We found that people who managed stress by focusing on their appreciatio
17、n for lifes beauty also reported experiencing life as highly meaningful.In the next study, we asked people to rate the degree to which they agreed with various statements, such as “I appreciate the beauty of life” and “I appreciate little things in life”, as well as other statements that related to
18、the three factors and a general sense of meaning in life. Our results showed that the more people reported that they were “appreciating life” and its many experiences, the more they felt their life was valuable.In the following studies, we further looked at the connection between EA and meaningfulne
19、ss. For example, we found that people who were asked to look back on the most meaningful event of the past week generally reported high EA in those moments.All the results proved our theory (假设) true. But putting it into practice can be difficult. Our fast-paced lifestyles fill the day with goals. W
20、e try to get the highest output both at work and in spare time. This focus on future outcomes makes it all too easy to miss what is happening right now. We should slow down and let life surprise us.21You were most probably in the EA condition when _.Ayou made a travel plan for the coming holidayByou

22、 the key to living a satisfying life.23What does the last paragraph mainly tell us?AIt is easier for results-driven people to achieve success.BWe often turn a blind eye to the present moment.CA fast-paced lifestyle helps us reach our goals.24What is the writers main purpose in writing this passage?A
23、To explain how to discover beauty in life.BTo discuss what the true meaning of life is.CTo introduce a new factor for a meaningful life.Have you ever heard of the saying “Dont judge a book by its cover”? Well, in Chinese, we often say “Dont judge people by their looks”.Imagine you meet someone new a
24、t school. They might look different from you in hair, clothes, or looks. Its important not to make any judgment about them just because of how they look.Sometimes, people make a mistake by judging others by their looks. They might think someone is mean (刻薄的) or unfriendly just because they have a se

But as you spent time with them and got to know them, you realized how amazing they were.Dont judge people by their looks, and open our heart to new people in our lives.

Lets treat others with kindness and fairness, no matter how they look. When we do so, we make a big difference to the world, and we
