16、ade them feel secure.In exchange they paid him very well.We had a nice life then.At that time,my yoga studio(瑜伽馆)was just starting to make a profit,and I had recently decorated it.At last,I was in control of my working life and poured my heart and soul into making it succeed.When we first met,I fell
17、 hard for Desmond right away,although I wouldnt call it love Id never been with a man who was smarter than I was,but after a while I got used to this,and it didnt bother me so much.I was recovering from a broken heart and needed something to help me move on.If it wasnt love,it was good enough,and wh
18、en he asked me to marry him I jumped at the chance,knowing that it might be my last.Things started out so well.I was working steadily and Desmond was patiently climbing up the ladder in his department.Then,without any warning,one gray winter afternoon in year five,he just upped and left his desk at
19、the bank,handed in his resignation,and came home and told me he wanted to start an interior design business.He has always loved mixing and matching,and has a real eye for color,texture,and shape,but the idea of turning a hobby into a business wasnt something we had ever discussed.I thought the stres
20、s of his job was becoming too much and perhaps he would take a few months off over the spring and summer to relax and get the idea out of his system,I didnt believe he could be serious.But once he had a few clients,he began to draw up plans,ordering catalogues and turning our empty workshop into a k
21、ind of makeshift studio with all of his sketches pinned to the wall.After spending a lot of time and money on all of this preparation,and really doing quite a nice job of it,he called each client in turn and apologized,saying he wouldnt be able to design their living spaces after all.36The woman in

24、office in the bankCmade a big business in interior designDwas not well prepared for his businessBAre you an optimist? Do you look at your glass and see it as half full?Do you believe that every cloud has a silver lining and that generally things turn out for the best? Do you believe that if somethin
25、g is meant to be,it will be? If you reply “yes” to all of these questions,then you are an optimist.You probably are enthusiastic,cheerful and outgoing.You may well be successful at work and in love.But you may be misguided because things dont turn out for the best.You may believe that when one door
26、closes,another one opens(for example,you may fail to land a new job,another chance will come around soon)Wrong.When one door closes,another door slams in your face.Thats bitter reality.Now a book has been published which confirms what we pessimists(悲观者)have suspected all along.Its called The Positiv
27、e Power of Defensive Pessimism.Its author argues that defensive pessimism can lead to positive results.Defensive pessimism is a strategy used to manage fear,anxiety and worry.Defensive pessimists prepare for things by setting low outcomes for themselves.They carefully consider everything that may go
28、 wrong and plan for ways to handle these problems.And this gives them a sense of control.Lawrence Sanno,a psychology professor,says,“Whats interesting about defensive pessimists is that they tend to be very successful people,so their low opinion of the situations outcomes is not realistic.They use i
