My grandparents built and lived in a small 600-square-foot cottage for most of their adult lives. They actively practiced living a
21 life. Saving and avoiding overspending was their life
22 for their whole life.
23 seeking satisfaction through material items, they chose to spend
24 time together, with family, and in nature.
Over the years my grandparents noticed
25 changes in their community. Every year more farmland was
26 to build larger and larger homes. With houses’ prices
27 , many of their neighbors sold their little homes and lands.
28 only their small house was still on the block, surrounded by a sea of tall buildings. Countless family members
29 my grandparents to expand their home. But they didn’t want a bigger place and were
30 with what they had.
In many ways, I’ve modeled my life after my grandparents. Through their example I learned an important
31 : It is absolutely possible to live a small and fulfilling life.
My grandparents lived in a small home, but they owned a(n)
32 garden. They loved gardening deeply because it not only
33 their grocery bill, but also improved their health and gave them a(n)
34 to be outside. They said, “
35 you live in a small home or an apartment, you don’t have to give up gardening.”
My grandparents avoided lifestyle creep(攀比) by paying for their own home in cash and building it themselves. They also recycled and
36 everything. For instance, they drove the same car for over 15 years and didn’t buy anything new until their stuff was
37 worn out.
My grandparents taught me that living well on
38 isn’t about feeling bad for myself.
39 , it’s about giving yourself the time, freedom, and money to seek your dreams. You know: Becoming debt free, living in a smaller home, and others are a few ways to
40 your life.

人生感悟类阅读的概念：
生活感悟类的文章就是指能给人心灵以启迪，使人从中受到教育的文章。这类文章的体裁可以是记叙文，如生活中一些感人故事或情感故事，有点类似心灵鸡汤一样的短文。 生活感悟类阅读解题指导：
一、文章特点：
生活感悟类的文章就是指能给人心灵以启迪，使人从中受到教育的文章。这类文章的体裁可以是记叙文，如生活中一些感人故事或情感故事，有点类似心灵鸡汤一样的短文。有时故事的结尾会有一句“点睛之笔”，点出全文的中心思想，就像《伊索寓言》里的寓言一样。还可能是夹叙夹议的哲理散文或生活随笔。散文随笔通常会阐述一种朴素易懂，耳熟能详的人生道理或宝贵品质。文章的结构和议论文类似，一般是总分总或总分结构。每段首句或尾句为主题句（论点），其它句子围绕主题展开论述（论据），论证方法多种多样，或举例，或引用名言，或正反对照等。
二、解题技巧：
针对生活感悟类文章的特点，做这类文章的完形填空时，要特别注意以下几点：
1、重点理解全文的首句。如果是记叙文，找出when，where，who，what等基本要素。如果是散文随笔，充分理解文章的中心句—全文的主题。
2、阅读全文的结尾段或结尾句，有助于理解文章所阐述或蕴含的哲理、感悟或忠告等。
3、调动自己的背景知识和情感。这类文章不会讲大道理也不会涉及到一些很专业的知识技术领域，而是谈一些小事和简单的道理，所以如果读者能和作者产生感情上的共鸣，读者会更好地把握作者的意图态度，从而提高做题的准确度。因此，考生在平时要做一个有心人，即用心去感悟生活中发生的小事，思考人生的一些基本道理，多阅读一些短小精悍的美文，多写写自己的心情故事和对生活学习的感悟。只有平时多用心，做题时才能调动自己的背景知识和情感。
