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.

試題分析:本篇為說明文。文章對寬恕及其如何寬恕別人以及寬恕別人的益處給予了說明。寬恕是美德，但是沒有人說很容易做到寬恕別人。當你被深深傷害的時候，想要不懷恨在心是很難做到的。但是寬恕是可能的——而且這會給你的身心健康帶來出乎意料的益處。

【1】B. 根據下文“嘗試下列步驟：你首先要冷靜下來， ____________摒住呼吸并且想一些能夠讓你快樂的事情：大自然的美麗景色、或者你喜愛的人等等，都可以”說明：怎樣做才會開始原諒（別人）？

【2】F. 根據下文“摒住呼吸并且想一些能夠讓你快樂的事情”應該選F(嘗試一種簡單的減壓技巧來緩解你憤怒的情緒。)

【3】G. 根據上文“不要等別人來道歉。許多時候，傷害你的人沒有想過要道歉。他們可能是故意的，也可能只是和你看待事物的方式不一樣�！边xG(如果你等著別人來道歉，你可能會等令人嫌惡的相當長的時間。你要牢記，寬恕并不一定意味著與使你心煩意亂的人再次成為朋友。

【4】D. 根據下文“如果你站在別人的立場上，你也許會意識到他或她是因為無知、害怕、甚至是愛才那樣做的。你可以從冒犯你的人的立場給你自己寫一封信�！边xD(試著從別人的角度來看問題)。
