However,balancing 365 new things with work and family, while still managing to do the washing and get dinner on the table every night, was not always easy. In the early weeks of the project, I found it difficult to find so many new things. It wasn't long before my friends learned that I was open to almost anything I could consider a new thing, and the invitations began flooding in not just from friends, but friends of friends. As a result, my life was new. I went dog sledding(雪橇).I attended a fashion show. I went to many lectures on all kinds of topics that I never would have previously considered useful or interesting and found something to value in every single one. I even signed up immediately when learning about a local group trying to get into the Guinness Book of World Records by doing something unusual. As time went by, whenever I learned about something that seemed unusual, I did what I could to achieve it. Instead of“Why”, I began to ask "Why not". Now I find it is easier to just keep my eyes open to the possibilities that surrounded me. It turned out that there were new things everywhere,and all I had to do was to make a little effort to enjoy them. I looked back on the year. It doesn't matter to me that many of my "new things” weren't exactly meaningful. What matters is how to make full use of them when discovering there is an endless number of new things for me. It seemed to me an obvious sign that at fifty, my life was full of promise.I could continue to grow, spread my wings, and learn more every day for the rest of my life.I enjoyed the idea of something new, and it gave me a reason to welcome each day as a chance to experience the world a little differently. 4.Which can best describe the author's feeling according to paragraph 1?

Although there is expert broadcasting and we are equipped with cellphone, there're still some instances when the violent weather takes us by surprise. While most Atlantic hurricanes form off the coast of Africa giving plenty of early warning sudden Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico hurricanes form and move rapidly in less than a day's time, endangering everyone and everything in their path. There have been oil workers trapped off the shore when sudden storms appeared. Field archeologists have been stuck in coastal areas without storm warning. It wasn't but a few decades ago that a Texas National Guard group was trapped on the beach by rain-forced flooding and had to ride out a major hurricane during a training exercise. There have been a few instances when travelers were trapped on an island or in a coastal area and unable to escape in time. Escaping from the storm-threatened areas is generally a choice for most of us——but not for all. Each year thousands of islanders across the Caribbean face the danger of hurricanes without so much as a public shelter to hide in. Most ride out the storm in their homes. But there're a few things you can do to prepare yourself for some unexpected emergencies. Being prepared for the unexpected may be your best and only defense. If you're headed to the great outdoors for a few days or weeks, you should always carry a flashlight( 手电筒)with extra batteries,a GPS device(装置),and a basic medical box. If you're traveling in your car, remember you may suffer from high winds. You'd better not stay inside to avoid being blown away along with your car. Keeping your head and your courage up is essential to survival in any type of danger. Let common sense guide you and always be prepared for the worst. 8.According to the text, most Atlantic hurricanes. A.form in the Caribbean Sea. B.come from Gulf of Mexico.
