If we were to keep a record of all the things we worried about during a given period of time,we would discover—in reviewing them—that the great majority of our 16 never come to pass. This means that most of the time we 17 to worrying,even the constructive(建设性的)kind that prompts us to try to come up with a 18 to what is troubling us,is wasted. 19 ,we not only caused ourselves unnecessary mental pain,but also 20 valuable minutes and hours that could have been spent elsewhere.
To 21 this,it is often necessary to subject(使……遭受)potential 22 of worry to the coldly objective. Once,before a major 23 in front of a standing-room-only audience,a member of Arturo Toscanini’s orchestra approached(接近)the great Italian conductor with a terrible 24 on his face.“Maestro(大师),”the musician said 25 ,“my instrument is not working 26 .I cannot reach the 27 of E-flat.Whatever will I do?We are to 28 a few moments later.”
Toscanini looked with total 29 at the man.Then he 30 kindly and placed an arm around his shoulders.“My friend,”the maestro replied,“do not worry about it.The note E-flat does not 31 anywhere in the music that you will be 32 this evening.”
The next time we find ourselves in the middle of 33 about some matter,we might be wise to 34 and ask ourselves what the odds(几率)are of the problem really coming to 35 .We may be able to go on to something more constructive.

Chinese people think a lot about food.In fact,I think that they are sometimes obsessed(痴迷) with it.My first experience of this 16 of Chinese culture came at a banquet during a trip to Beijing in 1998.I had eaten Chinese food often,but I could not have 17 how fabulous(丰盛的)a real Chinese banquet could be.The first six or seven dishes seemed to 18 the table, with plates dangerously 19 one on top of another.I thought this vast 20 of food was the total number of dishes to be served,and I started eating 21 .Everyone else just 22 a bit of each dish and then put their chopsticks down,continuing to chat.“They can't have very big appetites,” I thought.
To my surprise,more dishes 23 ,plus soups,side dishes,and desserts.There was enough to feed a whole army.No 24 my fellow guests had had only a few 25 of each dish;they knew what was still to come.But I was already so 26 that I could only 27 as the banquet continued.
Another aspect of“food culture”is that the Chinese seem to eat almost every part of every animal——much to the 28 of many westerners.Stomach,ears,tongue,tail,hoof and lungs are all likely to 29 on the dinner table in front of you.The first time I saw a three-year-old kid 30 chewing a chicken's head I had bad dreams for weeks.
These days I enjoy that sort of food myself. 31 ,there are other kinds of foods that have taken longer for me to 32 .The infamous(臭名昭著的) choudoufu is a(n) 33 .(The name says it all:“stinky tofu”.) Just when I got used to it, I found another 34 on a trip to Hunan:deep-fried choudoufu,a horrible black substance that looked and 35 about as appetizing as a burnt tennis shoe.Maybe I'll get used to that, too—some day.

My grandparents built and lived in a small 600-square-foot cottage for most of their adult lives. They actively practiced living a 21 life. Saving and avoiding overspending was their life 22 for their whole life. 23 seeking satisfaction through material items, they chose to spend 24 time together, with family, and in nature.
Over the years my grandparents noticed 25 changes in their community. Every year more farmland was 26 to build larger and larger homes. With houses’ prices 27 , many of their neighbors sold their little homes and lands. 28 only their small house was still on the block, surrounded by a sea of tall buildings. Countless family members 29 my grandparents to expand their home. But they didn’t want a bigger place and were 30 with what they had.
In many ways, I’ve modeled my life after my grandparents. Through their example I learned an important 31 : It is absolutely possible to live a small and fulfilling life.

My grandparents avoided lifestyle creep(攀比) by paying for their own home in cash and building it themselves. They also recycled and 36 everything. For instance, they drove the same car for over 15 years and didn’t buy anything new until their stuff was 37 worn out.
My grandparents taught me that living well on 38 isn’t about feeling bad for myself. 39 , it’s about giving yourself the time, freedom, and money to seek your dreams. You know: Becoming debt free, living in a smaller home, and others are a few ways to 40 your life.
