七、閱讀測驗　(共出 1 大題 5 小題,每題 1 分,共 5 分)There are many lessons that can teach us how to deal with the successes and losses of day-to-day life. Some days present us with events that either make us very happy or very sad. If we allow ourselves to emotionally respond to these situations, life will be chaotic and difficult. But if we remain present in each moment and are not swept away with hopes and expectations, then life will be calmer and more peaceful. The following story helps to illustrate the benefits of such an attitude:One evening a farmer failed to close up the barn and his horse ran off. All of his neighbors heard the news and stopped by and said, "Oh that's too bad."The farmer said, "Maybe, we will see."On the next day his horse returned and brought with it a pack of wild horses. The next day his neighbors stopped by and said, "You are so lucky. Now you and your son can double your daily labor!"The farmer said, "Maybe, we will see."The next day the farmer's son was trying to break one of the wild horses. One of the horses threw him against the barn and he broke his arm. That evening the neighbors stopped by and said, "Oh, that's too bad!! Now he will have no good purpose."The farmer said, "Maybe, we will see."The rest of the month remained uneventful. But the following month, a war began and a draft official stopped by the farmer's house. The official rejected the farmer's son because of his broken arm. The neighbors stopped by and said, "That's so great!"The farmer said, "Maybe, we will see."Lesson: What seems to call for the utmost joy or sorrow can change. Maintain balance from the extremes and you will have a peaceful life. Treasure each moment for its own worth, not for what it might mean in the future.
