阅读《生命需要平衡》一文，完成小题。
      ①无论什么样的生命，在短促或漫长的人生中都需要平衡，并且都会在最终得到平衡的。眼睛瞎了，意大利的安德烈·切波里却成为了著名的盲人歌唱家；         。个子高的，如姚明，自然成就了他的事业，他可以到美国的NBA去打篮球，风光无限；个子矮的，如拿破仑，按现在的标准大概得是二等残废了，但却不妨碍他成为盖世的英雄。
      ②这就像《红楼梦》里所说的：大有大的难处，小有小的好处。这也就像伊索寓言里所讲的：高高的长颈鹿可以吃得着高高树上的叶子，却没办法走进院子矮小的门；矮矮的山羊吃不着高高树枝上的叶子，却轻而易举地走进了矮小的门。
      ③懂得了生命中的这一点意义，不仅是让我们不必为我们自身的长处而骄傲，不必为我们自身的短处而悲观；也不仅是让我们知道拥有再多，总会有失去的时候，失去的再多，总会有得到补偿的机会。更重要的是，让我们充分去体味到生命其实是一条流淌的河：乱石穿空，惊涛拍岸，卷起千堆雪，是生命中的一种情景；潮平两岸阔，风正一帆悬，也是生命的一种情景。一条河在流淌的过程中，不可能总是前一种风景，也不可能总是后一种风景，它要在总体流量的平衡中才会向前流淌，一直流入大江大海。因此，我们不必去顾此失彼，我们不必去刻意追求某一点，从而在这样生命的平衡中，让我们的心态更加从容，让我们的生活更加平和，让我们的人生更加舒展。
      ④当今土耳其首富萨班哲先生，家财万贯，富可敌国。命运似乎和他开着残酷的玩笑，他的两个儿女都是残疾弱智。但他却以为这其实就是生命给予他的一种平衡，而不去怨天尤人。他想开了，不幸与幸运之间沟通的桥需要的就是生命的平衡。他用自己富裕的钱，在伊斯坦布尔修建了一座残疾人公园。他希望以自己能够做到的事情来平衡更多残疾人不如意的生活，从而使自己不如意的生活达到新的平衡。就这样，他在富有和贫穷、健全和残疾、得到与失去中寻找到了自己的平衡。
      ⑤人的一生，并非“不是天堂就是地狱”的选择，而总是在这两者之间有一种平衡力量的显示。这样，我们的生命处于一种能量守衡状态中，而对生活中所呈现出的极端才不会或得意忘形或惊慌失措。生命就是在这样的阴阳契合、内外互补、得失兼备和相辅相成中达到平衡。寻找这样的平衡，便寻找到了生活的艺术，寻找到了生活和人生的意义。生命平衡的力量，其实就是我们平常生活的定力，是我们琐碎人生的定海神针。

   “All right then — just one more piece...” Words every girl has said when they are faced with the delicious cheesecake. Of course, many of us know we may eat the whole thing in the end.
    It isn't just girls. Most of us find it hard to say “no” to something attractive. However, scientists now say that willpower is very important to success and a happy life.
    Scientists in different countries have been studying the effects of willpower on people's lives for a long time. The results are similar, according to an article on February 7 in the Guardian, a famous British newspaper.
    In one experiment, scientists told young children that they could either have a marshmallow (圆形软糖) now, or two marshmallows in 15 minutes. Waiting obviously needed more willpower. Scientists then continued studying the children as they grew up. They wanted to see if some children always had stronger willpower. They also wanted to see how having stronger willpower affected their lives.
    Years later, scientists found that the children who had waited for two marshmallows were all healthier, happier and richer adults. Oppositely, the children who had shown weaker willpower at that young age were more likely to be in low-paid jobs, to be overweight, to have social problems.
    But there is hope, Roy F Baumeister, an American social psychology(心理学) professor (教授) told the Guardian. Baumeister says we can train our willpower just like we train our muscles（肌肉）. Even a little practice can strengthen（加强） our overall self-control if we do it regularly.
You could start by making yourself stand up straight, speaking in complete sentences, or using a computer mouse with the other hand. Scientists have found that people who manage to change little habits often perform much better in laboratory willpower tests.
    Like muscles, willpower can “get tired”. Don't try to do too many things at the same time, or when you don't have enough energy, for example when you are ill. If you already feel tired, you can try to recharge(恢复) your willpower with a good night's sleep and by eating well.
