Once there was a
little girl who lived in a small, very simple,
poor house on a hill. From there
she
could see across the valley to a wonderful house
high on the hill on the other side. This
house had golden windows, so golden and
shining that the little girl would dream of how
magic it would be to grow up and live
in a house with golden windows instead of an
ordinary
house like hers. She wanted to
live in such a golden house and dreamed all day
about how
wonderful and exciting it
must feel to live there.
When she got
to an age and got enough skill and sensibility to
go outside, she asked her
mother if she
could go for a ride outside the gate and down the
lane. After pleading with her,
her
mother finally allowed her to go, insisting that
she should keep close to the house and
not wander too far. The day was
beautiful and the little girl knew exactly where
she was
heading! Down the lane and
across the valley, she got to the gate of the
golden house across
on the other hill.
As she arrived, she focused on the path
that led to the house and then on the house
itself. She
was so disappointed as she
realized all the windows were ordinary and rather
dirty,
reflecting
（反映出）
nothing other than the sad neglect of the
house that was
derelict
（废弃
的）
.
So sad she didn't go any further and
turned, and heart broken. As she glanced up she
saw a
sight to amaze her. There across
the way on her side of the valley was a little
house and its
windows glistened golden
as the sun shone on her little home.
She realized that she had been living
in her golden house and all the love and care she
found
there was what made her home the
in front of her nose!

18. One summer vacation in my
college, my roommate Ted asked to me to work on
his fath
er's farm in
Argentina
．
The idea was
exciting
．
Then I had second
thoughts
．
I had never
be
en far from New England, and I had
been homesick my first few weeks at
college
．
What
abo
ut the language? The more I thought
about it, the more the idea worried
me
．
Finally,
I turned down the
invitation
．
Then I realized I
had turned down something I want
ed to
do because I was scared and felt depressed
< br>（沮
丧）
．
That
experience taught me a valuable lesson and I
developed a rule for myself: do what
makes you anxious
（焦虑）
;
don't do what makes you
depressed
．
In
my senior year, I wanted to be a
writer
．
But my professor
wanted me to teach
．
I
hesita
ted
．
The
idea of writing was much scarier than spending a
summer in Argentina
．
Back and
forth I went, making my decision,
unmaking it
．
Suddenly I
realized that every time I gave up
the
idea of writing, that downhearted feeling went
through me
．
Giving up writing really depressed
me
．
Then I learned another
lesson
．
To avoid the
depr
ession meant having to bear much
worry and concern
．
When I first began writing
articles, I often interviewed big
names
．
Before each interview
I
would get butterflies in the
stomach
．
One of them was the
great composer Duke
Ellington
．
On the stage and
on television, he seemed very
confident
．
Then I learned
Ellington still go
t stage fright
（害
怕）
．
If
Ellington still had anxiety attacks, how could I
avoid them? I went on doing those
frig
htening
interviews
．
Little by little,
I was even looking forward to the
interviews
．
Where
we
re those butterflies?
In truth, they were still there, but fewer of
them
．
I had learned from a
process psychologis
ts
（心理学
家）
call
．
If you put an individual in
an anxious situation often, finally there
isn'
t anything to be worried about,
which brings me to a conclusion: you'll never get
rid of anxiet
y by avoiding the things
that caused it
．
The point is that the new, the different, is
definitely scary
．
But each
time you try somethin
g, you learn, and
as the learning piles up, the world opens to
you
．
（

）
We
can infer from the passage that the
author________
．
A
finds it difficult to make
decision
．
B has
found out what causes
anxiety
．
C was
e
ncouraged by Duke Ellington's stage
fright
．
D no longer
feels anxious about new
experi
ences
