[2022·苏锡常镇四市高三调研(一)]

Architecture is amazing. It has changed the way I look at and interact with the

world and my environment. It has trained me to be hypersensitive (非常敏感的) to

the built environment, to recognize problems and find solutions that untrained eyes

would never notice.

As much as I love this profession, it is very easy to get lost in architecture.

I get so focused that I have forgotten about everything else. Luckily my passion

for cycling kept me sane (清醒的) while I was becoming an architect. I faced a lot

of obstacles and challenges when taking a bicycle ride across the United States.

Looking back, cycling across the America was actually one of the smartest things

I ever did.

I have actually bicycled across the continental USA twice from east to west and

from Atlantic Ocean to Pacific Ocean, both times. Bicycling across America isn't

as hard as you think.

I rode alone on my first trip in 2005 from Virginia Beach to the coast of Florence,

Oregon. In the end it was 4，547 miles over the course of 77 days.

I left for the second trip in 2007 with my two best friends from Bar Harbor,

Maine to Portland, Oregon, which was a 4，886­mile ride over 90 days. At that time,

I fell in love with the idea of leaving the east coast behind, starting a whole new

life and career in a new city. I ended up in Portland. After arriving in town on

a bike, I eventually found a job, a place to live and an amazing dog.

I share all this not to convince anyone to go biking across America, but only

to share how doing this has changed my life. Architecture has given me a wonderful

life and career but it isn't everything. Thankfully I have also been very passionate

about：my friends, traveling, bicycles, punk rock, technology, the Internet, my dog,

and even yoga. My architecture background has definitely sweetened my relationship

with all those things.

Becoming an architect is noble pursuit, but you should keep pursuing everything

else that you are passionate about. It will enhance your architecture career and

ultimately make you a more interesting person, which in my opinion is really more

important than being another silly architect.
