Living an Adventurous Life

Nearly ten years ago, I was told that I had a brain tumor （瘤）, and this experience changed my attitude about adventure forever．I thought that I was going to die and that all my adventures were over．I did not have a brain tumor, it turned out, but rather multiple sclerosis （多發(fā)性硬化癥）, which meant that, although they were not over, the nature of my adventures could have to change．

Each morning that I wake up is a fresh event, something that I might not have had．Each gesture that I make carries the weight of uncertainty and demands significant attention: buttoning my shirt, changing a light bulb, walking down stairs．I might not be able to do it this time．If I could not delight in them, they would likely drown me in anger and in self-pity．

I admire the grand adventures of others．I read about them with interest．With Peter Matthiessen I have hiked across the Himalayas to the Crystal Mountain．I have walked with Annie Dillard up, down, into, and across Tinker Creek in all seasons．David Bain has gone with me along 110 miles of Philippine coast, and Ed Abbey has rowed me down the Colorado River．I enjoy the adventures of these courageous figures, who can strike out on difficult trips – 2 miles, 250 miles, 3000 miles – ready to bear cold and tiredness, indeed not just to bear but to celebrate．

But as for me, I can no longer walk very far from the armchair in which I read．Some days I don’t even make it to the backyard．And yet I’m unwilling to give up the adventurous life, the difficulty of it, even the pain, the anxiety and fear, and the sudden brief lift of spirit that makes a hard journey more attractive．

I refine adventure, make it smaller and smaller．And now, whether I am moving on my hands and knees across the dining room to help my cat, lying wide-eyed in the dark battling another period of sadness, gathering flowers from the garden, meeting a friend for lunch, I am always having the adventures that are mine to have．

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從下框的A – F選項(xiàng)中選出能概括每一段主題的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有一項(xiàng)為多余項(xiàng)。

Americans are far more knowledgeable about drinks than they were 20 years ago．Witness the Starbucks revolution and you’ll know where the trend goes．Now, encouraged by recent studies suggesting that it can cut the risk of cancer and heart disease and slow the aging process, tea is enjoying a similar change．Enough fashionable tea houses are springing up to make even longtime coffee drinkers consider switching drinks．

Tea is available in more places than ever．The Tea Association of the United States reports that from 1990 to 1999, annual sales of the drink grew to $4．6 billion from $1．8 billion．“Green tea is seen by consumers as a ‘functional food’” — delivering health benefits beyond food itself, says Vierhile．

Recently published studies point out that only teas that come from the leaves of the plant Camellia sinensis have been shown to contain health benefits．Other herbal teas may taste good, yet they do little more than warm up the drinker．But for Camellia sinensis, the evidence is powerful．In a 1998 study, Harvard University researchers found that drinking one cup of black tea a day lowered the risk of heart attack by as much as 44 percent compared with non-tea drinkers, and other studies have suggested that the antioxidants （抗氧化劑） in these so-called real teas can also prevent cancer．

   One such antioxidant in green tea is ECGC, a compound 20 times as powerful as vitamin E and 200 times as powerful as vitamin C．“When people ask me for something good and cheap they can do to reduce their cancer risk, I tell them to drink real tea,” says Mitchell Gaynor, director of medical oncology at New York City’s Strang-Cornell Cancer Prevention Center．

Among those inspired to become a green-tea drinker is Tess Ghilaga, a New York writer who took it up after seeking advice from a nutritionist six years ago．“I’ve never been a coffee drinker,” says Ghilaga, 33．“She told me to start drinking green tea for the antioxidant qualities．” Now Ghilaga and her husband habitually make tea — they order theirs from InPursuitofTea．com, an Internet tea company．And although tea contains about half the amount of caffeine in a cup of coffee, “you still get such a kick from it,” says Ghilaga．
