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.
【小题1】 Try the following steps:
Calm yourself. 【小题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. 【小题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.
【小题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. 【小题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.B

(答案→)B 解析：本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了原谅别人和自己的方法。【小题1】B考查上下文的语境理解及逻辑推理。根据上文“原谅不是一件容易的事”可知，下文要讲“怎样开始原谅别人”，这和下面尝试以下几个步骤相一致。故选B。这是一个承上启下句。【小题2】F考查上下文的语境理解及逻辑推理。根据下文谈的是“具体做法：做深呼吸和想一些快乐的事情。”所以上文应该是抽象的方法。故选F（尝试简单的几种控制压力技术）。【小题3】G考查上下文的语境理解及逻辑推理。根据上文的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.可知，许多次伤害你的人不想道歉。他们可能伤害了你，或者他们和你有不同的看事情的方法。所以等待他们道歉将是很长的时间，甚至等不到。故选G。【小题4】D考查上下文的语境理解及逻辑推理。根据后文的You may want to write a letter to yourself from your offender’s point of view.可知D正确。试着从冒犯者的角度看问题。【小题5】E考查上下文的语境理解及逻辑推理。根据前文Don’t forget to forgive yourself可知选E。

这个问题我还想问问老师呢
