　　今天的句子：

　　It’s easy to rationalise perfectionism as a desire to do things properly, but really it’s the desire to do them perfectly – with the result that you either never get round to them, or you do, but then feel bad, because you’re constantly falling short of your unmeetable standards. So, learning to tolerate the discomfort of doing things imperfectly becomes a kind of self-improvement project. From this viewpoint, a defining quality of the successful activist is the ability to resist demanding perfection--to relish every small accomplishment.

　　思考题：

　　The solution proposed by author to perfectionism is__.

　　A.rationalise it as a desire

　　C.learn to do things properly

　　句子解析：

　　第一句：

　　It’s easy to rationalise this attitude as a desire to do things properly, but really it’s the desire to do them perfectly – with the result that you either never get round to them, or you do, but then feel bad, because you’re constantly falling short of your unmeetable standards.

　　参考译文：我们极易将完美主义合理化成想好好做事的愿望，但实际上，它是对完美的渴望——结果是，你要么永远做不到，要么做到了，随后却感到难过，因为你将不断辜负自己过高的标准。

　　第二句：

　　So, learning to tolerate the discomfort of doing things imperfectly becomes a kind of self-improvement project in itself.

　　参考译文：因此，让学会容忍事情没做完满引发的不适本身成为一个自我提升项目。

　　第三句：

　　From this viewpoint, a defining quality of the successful activist is the abilityto resist demanding perfection—to relish every small accomplishment.

　　参考译文：从这个角度看，成功的行动主义者的决定性品质恰恰是抵制苛求自我完善的能力――享受每一项小成就。

　　思考题解析：

　　The solution proposed by author to perfectionism is__.

　　作者提出的完美主义的解决方案是_______

　　A. rationalise it as a desire

　　(将之合理化为一种欲望)

　　第一句说我们容易把完美主义合理为一种欲望，但作者认为这是不对的。

　　答案不来自第一句。

　　B. be more tolerant of others

　　(对他人更宽容)

　　第二句说到了容忍，但是不是对别人(others)容忍!

　　而是对不完美的容忍，所以不对!

　　C. learn to do things properly

　　(学会正确做事的方法)

　　学会恰当的做事是第一句提到的，也不是作者的观点所在，排除!

　　D. enjoy small achievements

　　(享受小的成就)

　　对应最后一句：

　　抵制苛求自我完善的能力――享受每一项小成就。

　　relish(满足，享受)=enjoy

　　D选项正确。
