Anyone who wants to master a skill must run through the cycle of practice, ____2____ feedback, modification, and increasing improvement again, again and again. Some people seem able to concentrate on practicing an activity like this for years and take pleasure in their gradual improvement. Yet others find this kind of focused, time-intensive work to be ____3____ or boring.

While those without such a personality see difficulties, autotelic individuals see opportunities to build skills. With their capacity for “disinterested interest”, such people have a great ____8____ over others in developing their innate abilities.Fortunately for those of us who aren’t necessarily blessed with an autotelic personality, there is evidence that flow states can be ____9____ by environmental factors.

I use an app called Freedom to block social media for much of the workday. But they don’t seem to work.The Georgetown computer-science professor Cal Newport argues that we must establish a “philosophy of technology use.” He recommends a month-long digital detox (脱瘾), in which a person takes a(n) ___14___ from all optional technologies. When it’s over, the digital minimalist (极简主义者) slowly reintroduces these technologies.Newport defines a digital minimalist as someone who drops “low-quality activities like mindless phone swiping and halfhearted binge-watching (刷剧).” They are ___15___ high-value leisure activities such as board games, book clubs, and learning to “fix or build something every week.”At the beginning of March, I decided to try to follow Newport’s advice.

In 2010, his son, Saad, was born with a heart disease.

His kind behavior 152 a steady stream of customers, with frequent request for pickups from fans who send their153 to him via Twitter or Facebook.But he doesn’t expect the 13,000 other yellow taxis to 154 the same. The $300 a month Mr. Khalid spends on candy would 155 help many peopl e to support their families for a time. Actually, it is not a small sum.“If you think about it, you will 156 why he does it,” said Juan Miranda, who drives Mr. Khalid’s cab during the nights.“Everybody is sometimes d epressed and157 .

However, I was bored even if there was nothing much wrong in my life. I wanted more. I really wanted to live 163 and make sharp memories instead of the 164 ones of everyday life, 165 I was a littl e afraid. I had never had any 166 in myself.

Soon afterwards, I signed up for an internship( 实习工作) teaching English in Vietnam, a huge step which seemed 171 , one that frightened me as much as it 172 me. I was looking forward to it.And then eventually the day came and I left my home as well as my loved ones. I stayed all alone in a distant country where the local food was 173 and the streets were dirty. I had no idea whether I could 174 everything this very strange environment would 175 at me.I had been in Vietnam for more than five months, teaching, expl oring and laughing. I had learned to 176 myself, my skills, my abilities and my decisions. After that period of time, I returned home and was 177 , even to myself, not to mention to others.

I had no idea that I had a reading level that 181 ; I had just 182 words when I didn’t know them, and usually ended up getting them wrong.It was just before I turned 19 that I 183 my very first book. I can vividly remember the sense of 184 and achievement I felt. It was meant for primary school children but I didn’t 185 . I had read a whol e book, and I was 186 . From then on I read anything and everything I could get. I just wanted to get as much 187 as I could.I learned in those days at the 188 education centre. There are always peopl e looking forward to helping you and 189 you stuff. But you are never going to progress 190 you keep learning. The unbelievable educational 191 that the army offers make it one of the few places that can help you climb up the lad der of social classes in the UK.For me, improving my literacy level had another more surprising 192 . When I left the army, I was asked to write a(n) 193 of the Bravo Two Zero Mission and that led to the unexpected career change of becoming a(n) 194 .I have spent quite a bit of time over the past few years 195 schools, and workplaces, as well as army bases and businesses, to talk about my past and 196 others to start reading and writing like me. The 197 I give to all the people that I chat to is that if I can do it, anyone can. If that is a message that even one of them accepts and 198 , then it has been 199 .

His disease led to kidney failure and an ongoing need for 201 .As anyone with a sick child knows, the stress d oesn’t 202 . And there was so much stress. My husband and I were 203 and it was as if we forgot how to communicate -- we couldn’t have a simple conversation without 204 . Our once-happy home had become tense and unhappy.In a 205 event of communication, my stepson and I were discussing Valentine’s gifts. I 206 that his dad gave me a kazoo(卡祖笛) for our first Val entine’s Day. My reaction to this gift was 207 when I, a professional saxophone player, coul dn’t get it to make a 208 . The kazoo finally got packed away and 209 .But he was interested and asked to see it. After some trouble, I found it 210 . “What’s so hard about getting a sound?” he asked, amazed, turning it around in his hands. “I don’t know. It just never 211 .” I answered. My husband 212 the kazoo -- “It’s easy! Look, you just d o this…” –- and he blew. Nothing happened. He tried again, but still there was no sound. 213 , he tried again, only to produce a sound like a bee. My stepson burst into laughter. Our excitement at seeing his face light up like that was214 . Soon, we were all laughing to the point of tears.It was as if the dark had 215 and a ray of sunshine was let in. Eyes 216 and souls reconnected. My stepson took a turn on the kazoo. He did no better than us. More 217 . The mood stayed 218 for the rest of the evening. Months later, my stepson 219 a successful kidney transplant, which turned out to be a turning point.
