Im a 25-year-old graduate student who likes yoga, home-decorating shows and eating spoonfuls of peanut butter straight from the jar. Oh yeah, and Im an iPhone addict.I wasnt always an addict. In fact, for many years I told myself I didnt want a fancy cellphone. They seemed like too much work, always ringing and demanding attention. I was perfectly content with my simple cellphone, and I didnt feel like changing my mind any time .However, about a year ago, I found myself envious of all those proud iPhone owners, holding their shiny new phones and showing them off to all their friends. I started to eavesdrop on conversations about “iPhone apps”, feeling like a tourist listening to a language I couldnt speak.Eventually I couldnt ignore my iPhone instinct (本能) any longer, and I welcomed my new iPhone into my life. I instantly fell in love with the little bundle of joy, and could no longer imagine a life without it.To my surprise, I suddenly found myself with a whole new circle of friendsother iPhone owners I could go to for advice and support as I learned the various functions of my new device. They responded to my iPhone-related queries when my other friends couldnt, and didnt roll their eyes when I bragged（吹牛）about all the things little Eloise (yes, I named her) could do.For a couple months I built my new life with Eloise. However, I realized I had a problem when one day I found myself Google-mapping my way to my mailbox, which happens to be right outside my front door.When I reflected upon the past few months, I couldnt believe I didnt see this coming. All the warning signs were there. Eloise slept right beside me and was the first thing I reached for in the morning. I checked my e-mail about 20 times a day. I also experienced attachment anxiety when I left poor Eloise in the changing room at the gym. What if she rang and needed my response? Or, even worse, what if a careless gym-goer knocked her out of my bag and caused her screen to crack?Once I admitted I had a problem, things started to change. What used to feel like friendly messages now felt like constant complaining to respond. I hated that I could no longer leave the house without Eloise in my hand. Eventually, I felt angry with Eloise so much that I wanted to throw her at the wall.I decided something had to be done. But, as I quickly realized, iPhones are like cigarettes and not easy to quit.Then, while taking the bus to work one day, I was unexpectedly forced to quitat least temporarily. When I reached into my purse to grab Eloise, I found her overcome by fever. My head swam with panic as I attempted to solve the problem, but without result. I couldnt call anyone for advice. I couldnt Google whether this had happened to any fellow iPhone owners. The Apple Store was closed by the time I finished work, so I headed home with fear into an Eloise-less night. But, after a couple hours without any text alerts, push notifications, or even good old-fashioned phone calls, I felt . calmer. Without my electronic bed partner, I drifted off into the deepest sleep Id had in months. The next morning, I read the news from the simplicity of the newspaper, instead of from my iPhone. I even noticed the cherry blossoms blooming.My goodness, what had I been missing?41. The passage is mainly about _. A. how I changed my attitude towards iPhone B. why I was content with my iPhone C. how my simple cellphone changed my lifestyle D. why I stopped using iPhone unwillingly42.

My friend wanted more control over her work hours, income, etc., but you can imagine that if work is serving someone, she wont have much luck until that belief changes. When I asked her where that belief came from, she said her father.Most of us spend many of our waking hours at work. How we think about those hours will determine how good or bad we feel about our lives.How would you complete the sentence: Work is.? How many of us say that work is fulfilling? How many say work is fun?Changing Limiting BeliefsAlmost everyone I talk to has limiting beliefs about money or work. I worked with my friend using the walking belief change described in Debug Your Mental Software. When it came time to come up with a new belief, she struggled. She even asked me: Whats the opposite of slavery? So strong was the old belief that she couldnt think of the opposite.Whats Your Work Belief?If you think work is bad, youll end up working in an unfulfilling job regardless of how much it pays. If you think work is freedom, youll enjoy your work because it fulfills you. I call it soul work. If youre doing the work you love, it will be energizing, freeing.Much of our work ethic(职业道德规范) starts in childhood by watching our parents. How did they talk about work? Did they hate it, or did they love it? The truth is probably somewhere in between. Many of us say we dont want a job like my parent had or a job where theyre stuck inside a small room. But many of us end up with jobs like that. Sometimes its how we approach the tasks of our jobs that make the difference.Its possible to make even the most ordinary job meaningful and fulfilling. If it isnt possible for you to do that, then it is time to think about evolving out of the job. Sometimes just quitting a job because its boring is the wrong thing to do, but thinking about where you want to be and if you need more education is a good idea.Some young people seem to have trouble starting jobs or finishing college. Has our economy discouraged them? A recent movie I saw had a grown man (over thirty) telling his friends that hes a stay-at-home-son. Truth is sometimes stranger than fiction. I had breakfast at my local Perkins yesterday. Kristin took my order. She was bubbly and full of energy compared to the other waitresses. I watched as she remembered everything a family of four staying at a neighboring hotel had ordered the day before. Kristin loved people and loved her job. She has the kind of attitude and work ethic that employers crave.Whats your work belief? Does it limit you? Could you tune it up t
