3.I now work 40 hours a week at a weather company and I love it.Compared to when I became a mom,I don't feel bad about being away from my three kids.When I had my first child,I was a busy manager of a local news station.My husband had a part-time job and cared for her the rest of the time.I was determined to find a way to be home more.Once I became pregnant with my second kid,I quit my job to focus fully on writing.
At first I felt like I was living the dream.I was a work-from-home mom who never had to be away from my children.But working from home can end up being more stressful than working full-time or being a stay-at-home mom,because you're frequently worn out between work,keeping house,and telling sweet faces you don't have time to play.Ever tried writing an article with a baby screaming?It was awful.
I was so stressed that I eventually started taking my kids to a day care center a couple of days a week.The whole reason I worked so hard to be able to write for a living was to be at home with my kids and here I was taking them to a day care center.I thought I was a failure then.
Over the past five years of being a freelancer (自由作家),I've realized a couple of For me,working from home isn't"living the dream."As I wrote six months ago,"I thought I felt bad leaving my daughter for ten hours a day but now she is old enough to ask me to read her a story.Try telling your kid no,20 times a day.If s cruel.You end up feeling worse for having to ignore them than you would if you were gone at a job all day."I also realize not having anywhere to be and not socializing with people weren't good for my mental well-being.
Not only that,but I can now show my kids that Mom is important and has a job at a flashy office building,something they didn't realize when I sat around in yoga pants typing on my computer all day long.

10.Given that motivation is so central to our lives,what do we truly understand about how it operates and about its role in our lives?The assumption is that it's driven by a positive,external (外部的)reward.Do this,get that.But the story is much more complex.
One of the most striking aspects of motivation is that it often drives us to achievements that are difficult,challenging and even painflil.You may think that you would be happy to spend all your time sitting on a white-sand beach drinking and that as long as you get to fill your days this way,you would be happy forever.But while a few days of enjoyment might be fun from time to time,I can′t imagine that you would be satisfied by spending your days,weeks,months,years and even your life this way.
Research that examines the differences between meaning and happiness finds that the things which give us a sense of meaning don't necessarily make us happy.Moreover,people who report having meaningful lives are often more interested in doing things for others,while those who focus mostly on doing things for themselves report being only superficially happy,in other words,just externally and apparently delighted.The essential quality of"meaning"has to do with having a sense of being involved in something bigger than the self.
We all know people obtain a great sense of meaning even in the most unpleasant of circumstances.Many volunteers spend portions of their lives working in dangerous,war-tom areas,trying to keep disease and death from innocent civilians or teaching orphans to read.Their pain is real; their sense of doing something truly meaningfiil is substantial(豐富的).They show how our deep-rooted desire to believe that our lives have purpose beyond our lifespan drives us to work extra hard,even to the point of our own personal suffering,in order to gain more meaning.
The point is that these seemingly unusual and irrational (不合理的)motivations get us to do things that are complex,difficult and unpleasant.But they go beyond helping people in need.They motivate us in every aspect of our lives-whether in our personal relationships,in our individual pursuits or in the workplace.

56.Whafs the main idea of the passage?(No more than 10 words)
57.Why is motivation so significant to our life?(No more than 15 words)
58.What is the meaning of the underlined word"superficially"in Paragraph 3?(No more than 1 word)
59.What can volunteers obtain working in dangerous,war-tom areas?(No more than 10 words)
60.Do you agree with the opinion that motivation is driven by a positive,external reward?Why or why not?(No more than 20 words)
