新世纪大学英语第二册Unit2-Optimism-and-Positive-Thinking
Unit 2 Optimism and Positive Thinking Before Reading_ word web Before Reading_ word web I believe in the upward look. I choose to highlight the positive and slip right over the negative. I am an optimist by choice as much as by nature. Sure, I know that sorrow exists. I am in my 70’s now, and I’ve lived through more than one crisis.

Was everything all right? By the time I got home, I was beginning to feel a little sick. Did I have a bad liver? Had I picked up some rare disease? The next time I went into that gas station, feeling fine again, I figured out what had happened.
