一、阅读理解（本大题共15小题，共30.0分）
A
Asia can boast（吹嘘）that it has some of the best beaches in the world．Sihanoukville，
Cambodia is a seaside town located 200km or a fourhour bus ride away from the country's
capital，Phnom Penh．With several beaches and small offshore islands，it is definitely not
a place to miss out if you are intending to visit Angkor Wat，as the beaches there are stunning
and still unspoiled by mass tourism
．
Serendipity Beach
Serendipity Beach is the most popular beach for the masses
，since it is the most accessible
beach，being the nearest one from the main town area．There are plenty of bars scattered
around the beach
，so be prepared for the crazy parties every night
．
Ochheuteal Beach
Ochheuteal Beach is located south of Serendipity Beach，and it's a bit of an improvement from
Serendipity Beach itself in terms of the people that go there
．Over here
，there are bars and
pubs，but at night，don't expect wild parties like at the Serendipity Beach area．
Otres Beach
All the way down south
，near Moat Peam
，lies a hidden gem called Otres Beach
．This is
where you can get your yoga suit on and practice meditation（冥想）．This is the quietest beach
in Sihanoukville and it is the least crowded
，with very few parties
．If your idea of a beach
holiday is just yourself and the sun，sea and sand，this place is for you．
Koh Rong
Koh Rong is an island off Sihanoukville that is covered with beautiful sandy beaches
．True
relaxation lies at Long Beach，which is located on the other side of the island．Clear water
surrounds the beach
，and once you get there
，you'll be greeted with fine white sand
．
Koh Rong doesn't have any roads，so there are no cars or motorbike rentals - everything is
mostly on foot
．

One of the greatest sources of unhappiness
，in my experience
，is the difficulty we have in
accepting things as they are．
When we see something we don't like
，we wish it could be different
．We cry out for
第2页，共16页something better
．That may be human nature
，or perhaps it's something ingrained
（根深
蒂固的）in our culture．The root of the unhappiness isn't necessarily that we want things to
be different
．However
，it's that we decided we didn't like it in the first place
．We've judged
it as bad，rather than saying，"It's not bad or good，and it just is it．"
In one of my books，I said "You should expect people to mess up and expect things to go
differently than you planned"
．Some readers said it's too sorrowful to expect things to go
wrong．However，it's only negative if you see it as negative and judge it as bad．Instead，
you could accept it as the way the world works and try to understand why that is
．
This can be applied to whatever you do：how other people act at work，how politics works
and how depressing the news media can be．Accept these things as they are，and try to
understand why they're that way
．It will save you a lot of sadness
，because you'll no longer
say，"Oh．I wish bad things didn't happen!"
Does it mean you can never change things
？Not at all
．But change things not because you
can't accept things as they are，but because you enjoy the process of changing，learning and
growing
．
Can we make this world a better place
？You can say that you'll continue to try to do things to
help others，to grow as a person，to make a difference in this world．That's the correct path
you choose to take
，because you enjoy that path
．Therefore
，when you find yourself judging
and wishing for difference，try a different approach：accept，and understand．It might lead
to some interesting results
．
