However,balancing 365 new things with work and family, while still managing to do the washing and get dinner on the table every night, was not always easy. In the early weeks of the project, I found it difficult to find so many new things.It wasnt long before my friends learned that I was open to almost anything I could consider a new thing, and the invitations began flooding in not just from friends, but friends of friends. As a result, my life was new. I went dog sledding(雪橇).I attended a fashion show. I went to many lectures on all kinds of topics that I never would have previously considered useful or interesting and found something to value in every single one. I even signed up immediately when learning about a local group trying to get into the Guinness Book of World Records by doing something unusual.As time went by, whenever I learned about something that seemed unusual, I did what I could to achieve it. Instead of“Why”, I began to ask Why not. Now I find it is easier to just keep my eyes open to the possibilities that surrounded me. It turned out that there were new things everywhere,and all I had to do was to make a little effort to enjoy them.I looked back on the year. It doesnt matter to me that many of my new things” werent exactly meaningful. What matters is how to make full use of them when discovering there is an endless number of new things for me. It seemed to me an obvious sign that at fifty, my life was full of promise.I could continue to grow, spread my wings, and learn more every day for the rest of my life.I enjoyed the idea of something new, and it gave me a reason to welcome each day as a chance to experience the world a little differently.4.Which can best describe the authors feeling according to paragraph 1?A.
