Mental health is the seed that contains self-esteem — confidence in ourselves and an ability to trust in our common sense。 It allows us to have perspective on our lives — the ability to not take ourselves too seriously， to laugh at ourselves， to see the bigger picture， and to see that things will work out。 It‘s a form of innate or unlearned optimism。 （48） Mental health allows us to view others with sympathy if they are having troubles with kindness if they are in pain and with unconditional love no matter who they are。 Mental health is the source of creativity for solving problems， resolving conflict， making our surroundings more beautiful， managing our home life， or coming up with a creative business idea or invention to make our lives easier。 It gives us patience for ourselves and toward others as well as patience while driving， catching a fish， working on our car。 or raising a child。 It allows us to see the beauty that surrounds us each moment in nature， in culture， in the flow of our daily lives。

　　（49）Although mental health is the cure-all for living our lives， it is perfectly ordinary as you will see that it has been there to direct you through all your difficult decisions。 It has been available even in the most mundane of life situations to show you right from wrong， good from bad， friend from foe。 Mental health has commonly been called conscience， instinct， wisdom， common sense， or the inner voice。 We think of it simply as a healthy and helpful flow of intelligent thought。 （50） As you will come to see， knowing that mental health is always available and knowing to trust it allow us to slow down to the moment and live life happily。

　　答案：

　　In Cambodia， the choice of a spouse is a complex one for the young male。 It may involve not only his parents and his friends， as well as those of the young woman， but also a matchmaker。 A young man can decide on a likely spouse on his own and then ask his parents to arrange the marriage negotiations， or the young man’s parents may make the choice of a spouse， giving the child little to say in the selection。 In theory， a girl may veto the spouse her parents have chosen。 After a spouse has been selected， each family investigates the other to make sure its child is marrying into a good family。

　　The traditional wedding is a long and colorful affair。 Formerly it lasted three days， but in the **80s it more commonly lasted a day and a half。 Buddhist priests offer a short sermon and recite prayers of blessing。 Parts of the ceremony involve ritual hair cutting， tying cotton threads soaked in holy water around the bride’s and groom’s wrists， and passing a candle around a circle of happily married and respected couples to bless the union。 Newlyweds traditionally move in with the wife’s parents and may live with them up to a year， until they can build a new house nearby。

　　Divorce is legal and easy to obtain， but not common。 Divorced persons are viewed with some disapproval。 Each spouse retains whatever property he or she brought into the marriage， and jointly-acquired property is divided equally。 Divorced persons may remarry， but a gender prejudice shows up： The divorced male doesn’t have a waiting period before he can remarry while the woman must wait ten months。
