23、our anger. But forgiveness is possible and it can be surprisingly helpful to your physical and mental health. Indeed, research has shown that people who forgive report more energy, better appetite (胃口 ) and better sleep patterns. “People who forgive show less anger and more hopefulness,“ says Dr. Fr

24、ederic Luskin, who wrote the book Forgive for Good. “So it can help save on the wear and tear on our system and allow people to feel more energetic.“ So when someone has hurt you, calm yourself first. Take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in natur

25、e, someone you love. Dont wait for an apology. “Many times the person who hurt you may never think of apologizing,“ says Dr. Luskin. “They may have wanted to hurt you or they just dont see things the same way. So if you wait for people to apologize, you could be waiting a very long time.“ Keep in mi

26、nd that forgiveness does not necessarily mean accepting the action of the person who upset you. Mentally going over your hurt gives power to the person who brought you pain. Instead, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you. Finally, try to see things from the other persons perspec

27、tive (视角 ). You may realize that he or she was acting out of ignorance (无知 ), fear even love.

30、logize 59 To be sure, only children experience some things differently from those with siblings (兄弟姐妹 ). Many feel more pressure to succeed. In the absence of brothers and sisters, only children are also likely to look more exclusively to their parents as role models. In India, 19-year-old Saviraj S

31、ankpal founded a support group for the tiny number of only children. Among other things, the group does volunteer work to be against the myth (神话 ) that theyre irresponsible (不负责任的 ). “People think were pampered (娇惯 ) and spoiled,“ says Sankpal, a computer engineering student. “But Id like to remind

32、 them how lonely it can get.“ Most only children, however, say they wish for siblings only when it comes to caring for aging, unhealthy parents. Britains David Emerson, coauthor of the book, The Only Child, says that such a person bears terrible burden in having to make all the decisions alone. Emer

33、son knows from experience: After his father died, he chose to move his elderly mother from their family home, where she was vulnerable (易受攻击的 ) to house breakers, to a new one with more safety, “The move was quite hard on her, and she might feel that I pushed her into it,“ he says. “Finally, I am le

34、ft with that responsibility,“ In the future, more and more only children will likely face similar choices. With working mothers increasing, many families are finding they simply dont have the time, money or energyto have more than one child. As only children become common, perhaps the world will rea

35、lize that the accusation (指责 ) made against them is unfair. 59 It can be inferred from the passage that only childrens parents should_. （ A） found a support group for their only children （ B） do volunteer work to help their only children （ C） let their only children make all the decisions alone （ D）

To create means “to bring into

39、 being, to cause to exist something each of us does daily“. We are creative whenever we look at or think about something in a new way. First, this includes an awareness (意识 ) of our surroundings. It means using all of our senses to become aware of our world. This may be as simple as being aware of c

40、olor and texture (质地 ), as well as taste, when we plan a meal. Above all, it is the ability to notice things that others might miss. A second part of creativity is an ability to see relationships among things. If we believe the expression, “There is nothing new under the sun. The creativity is remak

41、ing or recombining (组 ) the old in new ways.“ For example, we might do this by finding a more effective way to study or a better way to arrange our furniture, or we might make a new combination of camera lenses and filters to create an unusual photograph. A third part of creativity is the courage an

42、d drive to make use of our new ideas, to ask for them to achieve some new results. To think up a new idea is one thing; to put the idea to work is another. These three parts of creativity are included in all the great works of geniuses, but they are also included in many of our day to day activities

43、. 63 Which of the following activities is NOT a creative one according to the passage? （ A） To prepare for a meal. （ B） To arrange the furniture in a special way. （ C） To buy some books from a bookstore. （ D） To “write“ a letter with the computer. 64 “There is nothing new under the sun“ really impli

47、en I joined a slimming club. My target was 140 pounds and I lost 30 pounds in six months. I felt great and people kept saying how good I looked. But Christmas came and I started to slip back into my old eating habits. I told myself Id lose the weight at slimming classes in the New Year. but it didnt

48、 happen. Instead of losing the pounds, I put them on. Id lost willpower and tried to believe that the old bag of fish and chips didnt make any difference but thescales dont lie.
