懷舊是一種居于現代世界核心位置的情感。在歸鄉路不再遙遠的當代，懷舊主題不僅未有絲毫衰減，還有向動漫、萌寵、科/魔幻文化蔓延的趨勢。

懷舊背后的社會動機是人類對相對穩定、連續的環境的需求，因為后者是個體自我連續性的基石。作為個體身份的重要一環，自我連續性對個體心理健康、自我認同至關重要。因此，懷舊是應對環境斷裂和失序感，重建自我連續性的一種努力。nostalgiaPartⅠPre-readingPreparationTextReadingComprehensionCulturalNotesNewWordsandPhrasesDetailedLearningPartⅠTextReadingComprehensionCulturalNotesNewWordsandPhrasesDetailedLearningPre-readingPreparationPartⅠTextReadingComprehensionCulturalNotesNewWordsandPhrasesDetailedLearningPre-readingPreparationPartⅠTextReadingComprehensionCulturalNotesNewWordsandPhrasesDetailedLearningPre-readingPreparationPartⅠTextReadingComprehensionCulturalNotesNewWordsandPhrasesDetailedLearningPre-readingPreparationPartⅠTextReadingComprehensionCulturalNotesNewWordsandPhrasesDetailedLearningSeekingSpecialMoments1.Iamamorningperson.Ihavealwaysenjoyedrisingearly,makingapotofcoffee,gettingthenewspaper,andsettlingdownforanhourofquiettime—whichIcallatime-out.Translation尋找悠閑時刻1.?我是個早起的人。我總是喜歡早早起床，煮一壺咖啡，拿一份報紙，舒舒服服地坐下來享受一小時的清靜時光——我稱它為悠閑時刻。Pre-readingPreparationPartⅠTextReadingComprehensionCulturalNotesNewWordsandPhrasesDetailedLearning2.WhenIwasachild,Irememberedmymotherusingtime-outsaspunishment.However,eventhen,IenjoyedgoingtomyroomtothinkabouthowIwasbehavingandwhatIneededtodo“tobeagoodboy”.Ienjoyedmytime-outthen,andIstilldo.NowIconsideratime-outasareward
