When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be extremely difficult to let go of your anger. But forgiveness is possible - and it can be surprisingly helpful to your physical and mental health. In??deed, research has shown that people who forgive report more energy, better appetite (胃口) and better sleep patterns. "People who forgive show less anger and more hopefulness," says Dr. Freder??ic Luskin, who wrote the book Forgive for Good. "So it can help save on the wear and tear on our system and allow people to feel more energetic."
So when someone has hurt you, calm yourself first. Take a couple of breaths and think of some??thing that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, someone you love. Don’t wait for an apology. "Many times the person who hurt you may never think of apologizing," says Dr. Luskin. "They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don't see things the same way. So if you wait for people to apologize, you could be waiting a very long time. "Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean accepting the action of the person who upset you. Mentally going over your hurt gives power to the person who brought you pain. Instead, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you. Finally, try to see things from the other person’s perspective 視角). You may realize that he or she-was acting out of ignorance (無知), fear – even love.

It’s such a shame to lose a free throw. Playing in the court has pressure from the opponent, time, your teammates, the audience, and yourself. You have to shoot the ball despite all the pressures around. But with a free throw, you have the ball, no one will try to get it from you, and you have all the time to shoot the ball. But why is it that many players, even good shooters, miss most of their free throws? Maybe they need more practice or maybe they need to apply more ways to improve their free throw.
Improve your player or your free throwing skills by following the tips below:
Make it personal. The truth is, there is no rule on how one should handle and throw the ball in a free throw. What matters is that the player should shoot the ball from the free throw line no matter how he does it. So when trying to improve your free throw shooting, better stick to what works the best for you. Do not copy other people’s techniques. Make it your own and leave those techniques as theirs.
Formulate (公式化) a repetitive way of shooting the ball. A free throw should be personalized. But it should also be repetitive. You should be able to repeat your free throw techniques whether you are in your court or in another court, whether you are energized or tired. You can’t say you have a personal free throw technique if you can’t repeat it over and over again.
Shoot at the same position and distance for every free throw. Basketball courts may be located in different places or maybe marked with different paint colors. But all of these courts maintain the same distance from the ring to the free throw line. Familiarize your perfect position when making your free throws. That should help you do your perfect throw.
1.Why do so many players fail to make a successful free throw?
A. Because they don’t have any special skills
B. Because they are lacking in practice and tips.
C. Because they are not so familiar with rules
D. Because many of them are green hands.
2.What can you do if you want to be a wonderful free thrower?
A. Learn from others.
B. Form your own throwing skills.
C. Keep active in the court.
D. Learn to throw in different locations.
3.The underlined word “ring” in the last paragraph may most probably mean “________”.
A. sound B. basket C. ball D. group
4.Which of the following might serve as the best title of the above passage?
A. How to play basketball successfully in the court.
B. How to improve your basketball throw skills.
C. How to gain more points in throwing.
D. How to improve your basketball free throwing.

Jungle(叢林) country is not friendly to man,but it is possible to survive there. You must have the right equipment and you must know a few important things about woodcraft(山林野外知識). Then your chances of staying alive are very good.
No one should go into the jungle without the right equipment. You need lightweight clothing, a good knife, and a compass. Fishhooks and a line,a rifle,matches in a waterproof container and a poncho(雨披) are necessary too. So is a mosquito net(蚊帳) to protect the head.
In the jungle you can get hopelessly lost within five minutes after leaving known landmark(地界碑). That is why you should always carry a compass. In open country during the day, you can tell which way to go by studying the sun. At night the stars are sure guides to direction. But in most places the jungle rooftop is so thick that it is impossible to see the sun or the stars. Again and again you must check your position by the compass.
Keep alert(警惕的). Watch the ground in front of you carefully. Stop and listen now and again. Avoid haste(匆忙), and rest often. In a place that is hot and humid(潮濕的), the person who sets a fast pace will soon become tired. A steady and even pace is wisest in the long run.
If you lose your way, don't panic. Try to decide how long it has been since you were sure of your position. Mark the spot where you are with blazes on a tree. Put them on four sides of the tree, so that you will be able to see them from any direction. Then you can begin retracing your steps(going back exactly the way you have come), knowing that you can always find the spot from which you started. Except in an emergency, never try to travel the jungle at night.
Whenever possible, it is wise to follow streams and rivers that are going in your general direction. This may cause you many extra miles of travel. But in the end it will save time and energy. Nothing is more exhausting (extremely tiring) than hacking(cutting) a way through unbroken jungle.
Surviving in the jungle is a science. The jungle people have become perfect in this science, and you can too. Learn as much as you can about what to expect in the jungle. Make sure you have the right equipment. Then no part of the jungle will seem completely or frightening. In fact, you will be able to “l(fā)ive off” it for a long time.
1.To keep alive in the jungle, you should make it clear that the right equipment is _________.
A.more important than a knowledge of woodcraft
B.less important than a knowledge of woodcraft
C.just as important as a knowledge of woodcraft
D.not as important as a knowledge of woodcraft
2.If you lose your way in the jungle, which of the following can NOT be done?
A.Check your position by the compass again and again.
B.Decide how long ago it was that you got lost.
C.Tell which way to go by studying the sun/the stars.
D.Mark blazes on four sides of a tree and be sure to see them from any direction.
3.The author is strongly against traveling at night probably because __________.
A.one tends to move too slowly at night
B.some animals will attack you
