Question

【題目】 Forgiveness (原諒，寬恕) means different things to different people. Generally, however, it includes a decision to let go of anger and thoughts of revenge (復(fù)仇). The act that hurt or displeased you might always be with you, but forgiveness can reduce its control on you and free you from the control of the person who harmed you. Forgiveness can even lead to feelings of understanding for the one who hurt you. How do you start to forgive? Try the following steps.

Calm yourself. To remove your anger, try a simple stress-management way. "Take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, someone you love, " Frederic says.

Don't wait for an apology. "Many times the person who hurt you has no plan to apologize, " Frederic says. "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 an awfully long time. " Keep in mind that forgiveness does not mean balancing with the person who upset you.

Keep off the unpleasant. Mentally replaying your hurt gives power to the person who caused your pain. "Don't pay attention to your wounded feelings, learn to look for love, beauty and kindness around you," Frederic says.

Realize forgiveness is helpful. Research has shown that people who forgive have more energy, better appetite and better sleep pattern.

Don't forget to forgive yourself. "For some people, forgiving themselves is the biggest challenge, " Frederic says. "But it can rob you of your self-confidence if you don't do it. "

【解析】

生活中總是會有一些時候你感覺受到了傷害，遇到一些讓你不高興的事情，這時你應(yīng)該學會的是寬恕，讓自己從傷害你的人或行為中解脫出來。如何開始寬恕別人呢？這篇短文中給出了一些建議。

【1】

根據(jù)短文第一段“Generally, however, it includes a decision to let go of anger and thoughts of revenge (復(fù)仇).”可知，寬恕包括決定放棄憤怒和復(fù)仇的想法。由此可知，復(fù)仇指“去傷害別人”，因此這里應(yīng)用hurt或者harm，意為“傷害”�？涨�of是介詞，此空應(yīng)用動名詞形式。故答案為hurting/harming。

【2】

根據(jù)短文第一段“Forgiveness can even lead to feelings of understanding for the one who hurt you.”可知，這里指“那些傷害了你的人”，people“人們”符合語境；或用代詞those指代“那些人”。故答案為those/people。

【3】

根據(jù)文章結(jié)構(gòu)可知，短文第一段引出了文章所要談?wù)摰脑掝}后，從第二段開始提建議，告訴我們?nèi)绾螌捤�別人。suggestion或advice都意為“建議”，符合語境。advice是不可數(shù)名詞，沒有復(fù)數(shù)形式；suggestion是可數(shù)名詞，應(yīng)用復(fù)數(shù)形式。故答案為Advice/Suggestions。

【4】

根據(jù)短文第二段“Take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure”可知，這個建議是讓我們深呼吸，想一些讓我們感到高興的事情。原文pleasure是名詞形式。在題目中使用了句型make sb.+形容詞作賓補，因此這里應(yīng)填形容詞pleased“感到高興的”。故答案為pleased。

【5】

根據(jù)第三段開頭“Don't wait for an apology.”可知，這個建議是“不要等待道歉”。結(jié)合原文意思以及空后的動名詞waiting，這里應(yīng)用stop，意為“停止”，常用動名詞作賓語。這個題目是每一個建議的標題，根據(jù)表格的上下行可知，都用了ing形式。故答案為Stopping。

【6】

根據(jù)短文第三段“Keep in mind that forgiveness does not mean balancing with the person who upset you.”可知，這個空應(yīng)填的是Keep in mind的同義詞，應(yīng)該是remember，意為“記住，記得”。故答案為Remember。

【7】

根據(jù)短文第四段“Don't pay attention to your wounded feelings, learn to look for love, beauty and kindness around you”可知，不要關(guān)注你受傷的感情，學會去尋找你周圍的愛、美和善良。題干中空后nice and beautiful是形容詞，該空是look for的賓語，用不定代詞something符合文意。故答案為something。

【8】

根據(jù)第五段的開頭“Realize forgiveness is helpful.”可知，寬恕是有幫助的，原文使用了形容詞helpful，“有幫助的”。題干中使用了短語do some help，這里填的是名詞形式。故答案為help。

【9】

根據(jù)短文第五段“Research has shown that people who forgive have more energy, better appetite and better sleep pattern.”可知，研究表明懂得寬恕的人精力更充沛，胃口更好，睡眠也更好�？涨暗�more可以是形容詞，該空可以填名詞energy；另外get是系動詞，這里也可以填形容詞energetic，與more構(gòu)成比較級形式。故答案為energy/energetic。

【10】

根據(jù)短文第六段“But it can rob you of your self-confidence if you don't do it.”可知，如果不原諒自己，就會失去自信。原文是if引導(dǎo)條件狀語從句，從句中表達否定的意思。結(jié)合題干中空后的forgiving是動名詞形式，這里應(yīng)用without，意為“沒有”，是一個否定意思的介詞，符合語境。故答案為without。
