第二部分：?阅读理解（第一节15小题，第二节5小题，每小题2分，满分40分）

A

No one ever said it was easy to forgive. When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be extremely difficult to get rid of your anger. But forgiveness is possible—and it can be surprisingly useful to your physical and mental health. So how do you start to forgive? Try these steps as follows:

Calm yourself. To remove your anger, try a simple stress-management technique. Take a deep breath 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 has no intention of apologizing. Maybe they don’t mean 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 reconciliation (和解) with the person who upset you.

Keep off the unpleasant. Mentally replaying your hurt gives power to the person who caused you pain. Instead of focusing on your wounded feelings, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you.

Try to see things from the offender’s side. If you understand that person, you may realize that he or she was acting out of ignorance (无知), fear or even love. To make it clear, you may want to write a letter to yourself from your offender’s point of view.

Recognize forgiveness is beneficial. Research has shown that people who forgive are reported to have more energy, better appetite and better sleep patterns.

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

56. The main purpose of the passage is to tell us __________.

A. what to do when we are hurt B. the difficulty in forgiving

C. the benefits of forgiving D. how to forgive

57. What can you do to remove your anger?

A. Look for beautiful things in the person who hurt you.

B. Try to forget who hurt you.

C. Think of something that makes you happy.

D. Turn to someone who you love.

58. You should not wait for an apology because_________.

A. you should make an apology first

B. the person who hurt you may not want to apologize

C. yo
