There are two basic ways to see growth: one as a product;the other as a process. People have generally viewed personal growth as an external(外在的)result or a product that can easily be identified and measured. The worker who gets a promotion,the student whose grades improve,the foreigner who learns a new language—these are examples of people who have measurable results to show for their efforts.
By contrast(對照),the process of personal growth is much more difficult to determine,since by definition it is a journey and not the specific signposts or landmarks along the way.The process is not the road itself,but the attitudes,feelings people have,and their caution or courage,as they meet with new experiences and unexpected difficulties.In this process,the journey never really ends;there are always new ways to experience the world,new ideas to try,new challenges to accept.
In order to grow,to travel new roads,people need to have a willingness to take risks,to face the unknown,and to accept the possibility that they may “fail” at first. How we see ourselves as we try a new way of being is necessary for our ability to grow. Do we see ourselves as quick and curious?If so,then we tend to take more chances and to be more open to unfamiliar experiences. Do we think we're shy and indecisive?Then our sense of fear can cause us to hesitate,to move slowly,and not to take a step until we know the ground is safe. Do we think we are slow to adapt to change or that we're not smart enough to deal with a new challenge?Then we are likely to take a more passive role or not try at all.
These feelings of insecurity and self-doubt are both unavoidable and necessary if we are to change and grow. If we protect ourselves too much,then we stop growing. We become trapped inside a shell of our own making.

It had been a long,hard,wonderful day.The two of us had walked from the sea’s edge through the length of a beautiful valley,climbed a superb mountain,travelled its narrow,rocky ridge(山脊),and now stood on its final peak,tired,happy and looking for the perfect campsite.
The experienced backpacker has a natural feeling for such things,and our eyes were drawn to a small blue circle on the map,like an eye winking at us.We could not see it from where we were,but we followed our judgement and went down steeply until it came into view.
We were right.It was a calm pool,with flat grass beside it.Gently taking our packs off,we made the first of many cups of tea before pulling up our tent.Later that evening,over another cup of tea and after a good meal,we sat outside the tent watching the sunset over a sea dotted with islands,towards one of which a ferry was slowly moving.It is not always so perfect,of course.On another trip,with a different companion,a thoroughly wet day had ended at a lonely farm.Depressed at the thought of camping,we had knocked and asked if we could use a barn(谷倉) as a shelter.
Backpacking could be defined as the art of comfortable,self?sufficient(自給自足的) travel on foot.Everything you need is in the pack on your back,and you become emotionally_as_well_as_physically_attached_to_it.I once left my pack hidden in some rocks while I made a long trip to a peak I particularly wanted to climb.I was away for nearly three hours and ended up running the last stretch in fear that my precious pack would not be there.It was,of course.
The speed at which the backpacker travels makes this the perfect way to see any country.You experience the landscape as a slow unfolding scene,almost in the way it was made;and you find time to stop and talk to people you meet.I’ve learned much local history from simply chatting to people I met while walking through an area.At the end of a trip,whether three days or three weeks,there’s a feeling of achievement,of having got somewhere under your own power.
After years of going out walking just for the day,many people start backpacking simply through wanting to stay out rather than cut short a trip.

2.What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?

D.They were delighted with the spot they’d found.
4.What does the writer mean by being “emotionally as well as physically attached to it ” in Paragraph 4?
A.It is more than just a practical aid.
B.He walks better when he is wearing it.
C.It is not a good idea to leave it anywhere.
