阅读理解 Your emotion helps you make sense of the world. At the core of an emotion is a subjective experience of the valence of it- what emotion scientists call "affect"(情感). Generally speaking affect is what we are most focused on. Do you have chocolate cake in front of you? That's good! Do you see a spider on the table! That's bad! Your affective reactions tell you which experiences are desirable, and which aren't, but the total emotional experience includes all you do and think. You can learn a lot by observing and describing them. You can also learn a lot by appreciating their secret life. The problem is: the affective features of emotions tend to dominate. Our subjective valence of emotion is almost all we can see. When emotions are only about what is pleasant or unpleasant in subjective experience right now, the more important features of emotion disappear. If you can slow down and expand; if you stop running or clinging (沉浸其中) and adopt a sense of curiosity, emotions become more subtle and different. When fear comes up, don't walk away so that fear dissipates. Instead stay. Allow yourself to feel the nervousness, the sweating and everything else that comes along with it. It is one of the hardest things to do in life, but it's also one of the most rewarding. If you run, you are telling basic parts of your brain, "I guess this threat really was real. I better stay away from it." You are training yourself to fear, regardless of that situation. If you cling, you are saying, "Escape from this emotion is a threat", and since it is not a happy experience, happiness slips through your hands like sand Note that you can not fool yourself. Just allow the full emotion. You will never enter into their secret life until you stop running or clinging. To control your life, you need to actively train your emotions to be your ally(同盟). Observe. Describe. Appreciate. Do that and you may find you have allies for healthy living that were there all along. （1） Why does the author mention "chocolate cake" and "spider" in paragrap 1. A .
