The word "open" is really used a lot. You’ve probably heard "open up" in many ways over the years. Probably most people would like to be more open than they are right now. We know it feels good to share with others. If feels good to talk to somebody about things we’re concerned about. It’s good to be able to trust somebody.
What do we really mean by becoming open? Well,trying to talk about yourself in such a way that something of the inner person,that is you,is communicated to others might be one way of being open or at least thinking about being open. That inner person is a complex person who has a variety of thoughts and also feelings. So,wanting to share with other people these inner feelings and these inner thoughts is one way of becoming open. Being open is a kind of invitation to others. What you share about yourself should encourage others to come in,so to speak and make contact with you. To involve themselves with you. Being open is difficult. It makes us feel vulnerable, psychologically naked and usually anxious. But it also is important in terms of really letting others get to understand how we think,how we feel and what we believe. We often hide our inner thoughts and feelings because we’re concerned how well excepted they’ll be by other people. But we also shut out other people from knowing and accepting us by not being open. We’re denying ourselves that chance to speak out,to declare our inner thoughts and feelings. It’s up to you to decide just how you’re going to talk about yourself and what you’re going to say. Telling somebody that school or work is awful. However,it might be more meaningful to share why you’re saying that about school or work. That’s at a little deeper level.
There are probably more risks attached to sharing that. Probably most important is an immediate here and now honesty that goes along with being open. For instance,telling someone that you’re bored is risky,but it takes courage to say,"I’m bored,why don’t we do such and such?",or "Let’s change topics. "For me,declaring your boredom or resentments also means I’m responsible for suggesting alternatives to change my mood. You have the power to change things by being open and sharing things.
Keep in mind also that being completely open with everyone in every situation may be very inappropriate. You may want to be more open with your spouse or close friends,but not with your boss or people you don’t know as well. You may choose not to be open with people you don’t fully trust, because to be open is to share vulnerable information about yourself. And if you don’t fully trust how someone else will use that information about you,you may choose not to share it. Also,some people may be very uncomfortable with too much openness and you may not want to be as open with them.
A caution about being open is that sometimes we can be too open. In the name of being open we say everything we feel or think to others. But fail to be sensitive to others feelings about our openness. We may make them feel very uncomfortable or say something that hurts them. Being open also carries a responsibility with it and that is to be aware of others’ reactions to us and to respect their reactions.
Which of the following is NOT the reason why the author says "being open is difficult"?
选项
A、Because it makes us feel easy to be attacked.
B、Because people don’t want others to know many details about themselves.
C、Because people are afraid of being against when they tell others their real opinions.
D、Because people cannot make sure whether others can be open to them in return.
答案
D
解析
细节题。文中第二段的后半部分讲到了“坦诚难”的问题。根据It makes us feel vulnerable,psychologically…because we’re concerned how well excepted they’ll be by other people.可以判断,[A]所说的“担心自己容易受到伤害”、[B]“担心自己的细节被别人知道得太清楚”以及[C]“担心自己的观点会被别人反对”都是作者提到的“坦诚难”的原因。而[D]“不能确定在表现坦诚之后对方是否也会对自己坦诚”在原文中并未提及,故选[D]。
