present moment. _24_without question, many of us have been used to spending much of our lives worrying about a variety of things all at once. _25_ we also postpone our satisfaction, our priorities, and our happiness, often convincing ourselves that “someday” will be better than today. unfortunately, the same mental power that tells us to look toward the future will only repeat themselves so that “someday” never actually arrives. john lennon once said, “life is whats happening while were busy making other plans.” when were busy making “other plans”， our children are busy growing up, the people we love are moving away and dying, our bodies are getting out of shape, and our dreams are slipping away. _26_many people live as if life were a dress rehearsal (带妆彩排) for some later date. it isnt. in fact, no one has a guarantee that he or she will be here tomorrow. now is the only time we have, and the only time that we have any control over. _27_ fear is the concern over events that might happen in the future we wont have enough money, our children will get into trouble, we will get old and die, whatever._28_ practice keeping your attention on the here and now. your efforts will pay off.a. when our attention is in the present moment, we push fear from our minds.b. we allow past problems and future concerns to dominate our present moments, so much so that we end up anxious, frustrated, depressed, and hopeless.c. tomorrow is a mystery, yesterday is a history, only today is a gift, and that is why we call today the present.d. most of us are used to resting hope on future, ignoring the present moment. e. living in the present moment is where you are always, regardless of what happened yesterday, and what may or may not happen tomorrow.f. in short, we miss out on life.g. to get over fear, the best strategy is to learn to bring your attention back to the present.答案24.e25.b26.f27.a28.g.短文改错as a senior three student, it wont take long after i graduate. now, i have much to share with
