22、Rising through stages to realize ourselves

Many modern people have the problem that they don’t know who they are and what their purpose is. This is especially common among college students. 【1】 They once studied hard. But after they stop working, they begin to lose their way.

In the theory of the Hierarchy of Needs (需求理论), Abraham Maslo, put forward a similar situation, which consists of the five levels of a person’s need. The fifth and final level is self-realization, which is where our final achievement lies. 【2】

I think self-realization has three major aspects. The first stage is acceptance, the second stage is discovery and the last stage is perseverance (坚持).

Acceptance is the first stage. We should be reminded that we are all born unique, so we all have our own strengths and weaknesses. 【3】 Being objective and yet tolerant is the key to acceptance.

【4】 Many people tend to go along with social expectations but indeed we should live for ourselves. So before we start working towards a purpose, we should ask ourselves “Is this what we truly desire?” and “Is this going to change the situation we’re in?”

The last stage is perseverance. 【5】 The people, who are able to self-realize are those who keep at the things they want to change.

Through the three stages, we could gain recognition of ourselves. And by this point, whatever our lives were like, we would be able to stand tall, confident of ourselves.

A．We must persevere in our efforts in these areas.

B．Exploring our potential isn’t going to be done in a short time.

C．Once high school seniors graduate, they seem to lose their identity.

D．Young adults must learn to balance cultural and family expectations with their own path.

E．Only when we understand these, can we pursue them or change them.

F．It is the process of knowing ourselves and finding a purpose.

G．Once we’ve accepted ourselves,we can discover what we are interested in and what we want to be.

23、   Growing up in Haiti, Phedjina Jean remembers the struggles she and her family went through to access basic services taken for granted in America. Her long-term goal is to become a physician and to set up a health clinic in her small town in Haiti. Now as a student at Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences, Jean is looking to use her experience as an immigrant (移民) growing up in an underdeveloped country to help children growing up in Haiti in a similar situation as herself.

In high school, she was accepted by a nonprofit called A Leadership Journey, which helps teenage people of color go on international trips. In 2019, Jean visited Kenya with the group and visited local schools and villages, assisting locals in education, healthcare and community organization.

“The experience I had in Kenya was eye-opening. I saw so much of my childhood in Kenya. When we went to the school, the children were playing a game, and I was the only American who was familiar with it, since we used to play it back in Haiti,” Jean said.

That experience has motivated Jean to seek more international experience as she works on reaching her goals. She is currently aiming to visit South Africa in December, but unlike her first trip, she will need to raise the funds herself. She has tried to raise the $3,000 necessary for the trip on website GoFundMe.

Jean would be taking the trip with International Children's Outreach, which hosts college students from different countries and encourages improving the lives of poor children and young people around the world while integrating the college students into the education process. Jean said that she would put together a STEM education plan and share it with students and educators while assisting in schools and the local community.

“My parents say to always remember where you came from. That doesn't just mean Haiti; it can mean anywhere in the world where people confront challenges due to poverty. I want to be able to share my experience with children from around the world,” Jean said.

【1】Why did Phedjina Jean decide to become a physician?

A．To make a difference in her hometown.

B．To lift her family out of poverty.

C．To get some basic medical services.

D．To help more immigrants like herself.

【2】What does International Children's Outreach aim to do?

A．Prevent racial discrimination in Haiti.

B．Raise money for students to go on trips.

C．Inspire college students to help poor children.

D．Encourage people to choose careers in education.

【3】What does the underlined word “confront” in the last paragraph mean?

A．Ignore.

B．Face.

C．Avoid.

D．Issue.

【4】Which of the following words can best describe Jean?

A．Modest and determined.

B．Talented and creative.

C．Broad-minded and humorous.

D．Warm-hearted and helpful.

24、Growing Up in the Library

I grew up in libraries, or at least it feels that way. I was raised in the suburbs of Cleveland, just a few blocks from the brick-faced Bertram Woods branch of the Shaker Heights Public Library system. I went there several times a week with my mother. She and I would walk in together, but as soon as we passed through the door, we each headed towards our favorite sections. The library might have been the first place I was ever given autonomy.

Even when I was maybe four or five years old, I was allowed to head off on my own. Then, after a while, my mother and I would reunite at the checkout counter with our finds. Together we'd wait as the librarian pulled out the date card and stamped it with the checkout machine — that giant fist thumping the card with a loud chunk-chunk, printing a crooked due date underneath a score of previous crooked due dates that belonged to other people, other times.

Those visits were dreamy, frictionless (没有摩擦的) periods that held the promise of leaving me richer than I'd arrived. It wasn't like going to a store with my mom, which guaranteed a tug-of-war between what I wanted and what my mother was willing to buy me; in the library, I could have anything I wanted.

After we had finished checking out the books, I loved being in the car and having all the books we'd gotten stacked on my lap, pressing me under their solid, warm weight, their Mylar covers sticking a bit to my thighs. It was such a thrill leaving a place with things you hadn't paid for; such a thrill expecting the new books we would read. On the ride home, my mother and I talked about the order in which we were going to read our books, a serious conversation in which we planned how to pace ourselves through this charmed period of grace until the books were due.

When I was older, I usually walked to the library by myself, lugging back as many books as I could carry. Occasionally, I did go with my mother, and the trip would be as engaging as it had been when I was small. Even when I was in my last year of high school and could drive myself to the library, my mother and I still went together every now and then, and the trip unfolded exactly as it had when I was a child, with all the same beats and pauses and comments and daydreaming, the same perfect rhythm we'd followed so many times before. After my mother passed away two years ago, I plunged into a deep shadow of grief for a long time. When I miss my mother these days, I like to picture us in the car together, going for one more magnificent trip to Bertram Woods, during which we talked, laughed — as if she were still in my company, giving me inexhaustible strength.

【1】In this passage, the word “autonomy” (paragraph 1) is closest in meaning to “________”.

A．vitality

B．freedom

D．entitlement

【2】After the author and her mother left the library, ________.

A．they would plan to read their newly-borrowed books with feverish enthusiasm

B．they would have a serious conversation about which book attracted them the most

C．they would be anxious to recommend to each other the books they had borrowed

D．they would agree on buying the books they had just borrowed if they enjoyed them

【3】How does the author feel when she imagines herself in the car with her mother on the way to the library?

A．Grieved.

B．Shocked.

C．Miserable.

D．Comforted.

【4】What would the author most likely go on to write about in the paragraphs immediately following the last paragraph of this article?

A．One specific memory of a childhood trip to the library.

B．The fond childhood memories of her mother taking good care of her.

C．How her affection for going to the library has endured into her own motherhood.

D．Why her own child made up their mind to become a librarian after finishing college.
