Forgiveness

To forgive is a virtue, but no one has ever said it is easy. When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be extremely difficult to let go of your hate. However, forgiveness is possible, and it can be surprisingly beneficial to your physical and mental health. People who forgive show less sadness, anger and stress and more hopefulness, according to a recent research.

【1】 Try the following steps:

Calm yourself. 【2】 You can take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, or someone you love.

Don’t wait for an apology. Many times the person who hurt you does not intend to apologize. They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don’t see things the same way. 【3】 Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean becoming friends again with the person who upset you.

Take the control away from your offender(冒犯者). Rethinking about your hurt gives power to the person who causes you pain. Instead of focusing on your wounded feelings, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you.

【4】 If you understand your offender, you may realize that he or she was acting out of unawareness, fear, and even love. You may want to write a letter to yourself from your offender’s point of view.

Don’t forget to forgive yourself. 【5】 But it can rob you of your self-confidence if you don’t do it.

A. Why should you forgive?

B. How should you start to forgive?

C. Recognize the benefits of forgiveness.

D. Try to see things from your offender’s angle.

E. For some people, forgiving themselves is the biggest challenge.

F. To make your anger die away, try a simple stress-management technique.

G. If you wait for people to apologize, you could be waiting an awfully long time.

【4】D

【5】E

【解析】

試題分析：作者在本文中講述了原諒的重要性，諒解不僅僅是諒解他人也是諒解自己。諒解他人對我們自身有很多好處。同時作者還提出了幾個建議。

【1】B 根據(jù)第一段最后一句People who forgive show less sadness, anger and stress and more hopefulness, according to a recent research.可知愿意諒解別人的人更幸福，壓力更小，對未來更有希望。那么我們究竟應該如何開始原諒別人呢？B項內(nèi)容符合上下文串聯(lián)。

【2】F 根據(jù)下一句You can take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure可知這是一個讓自己鎮(zhèn)定的小技巧。而本段的主題句是Calm down。故F項符合上下文串聯(lián)。

【3】G 根據(jù)本段前2句Don’t wait for an apology. Many times the person who hurt you does not intend to apologize.可知傷害的人是不會來向你道歉的。也就是你不要等別人來道歉。那幾乎是不可能的事情。故G項內(nèi)容和本段中心思想一致。

【4】D 根據(jù)下局If you understand your offender, you may realize that he or she was acting out of unawareness, fear, and even love.如果你理解冒犯你的人，也許你就會意識到他/她可能是出于無意才會傷害你。也就是說作者建議我們換位思考。故D項符合上下文。

【5】E 根據(jù)本段第一句Don’t forget to forgive yourself.不要忘記原諒自己。有的時候我們自己也會犯錯，所以原諒自己也很重要。但是某種程度上原諒自己更加困難。E項符合上下文串聯(lián)。
