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.

       56     Try the following steps:

  Calm yourself.     57     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.     58     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 you hurt gives power to the person who causes you pain. Instead of focusing on your mounded feelings, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness

around you.

         59     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.    60    But it can rob you of yourself-confidence if you don’t do it.

A. Try to see things from you offender’s angle.

B. Recognize the benefits of forgiveness.

C. To make your anger die away, try a simple stress-management technique.

D. For some people, forgiving themselves is the biggest challenge.

E.Why should you forgive?

F. How should you start to forgive?

G.If you wait for people to apologize, you could be waiting an awfully long time.

Skiing on snow is an old idea. People have been skiing for more than 4,000 years! But skiing on water is relatively new. How did waterskiing begin? Who thought up the idea in the first place?

Waterskiing didn’t begin until boats had motors (发动机) that provided enough power to tow (牵引) someone on waterskis (滑水橇). The idea of skiing on water probably began in Hawaii with surfboarding, a sport in which a person rides a board on waves near the seashore.

The first person to waterski was, most likely, Ralph Samuelson. He wore boards tied to his feet and was towed around Lake City in Minnesota. That was in 1922. After that, the sport of waterskiing took off.

Equipment changed quickly. Skiers looked for faster skis, faster boats, and new challenges. Some skiers thought of some very original ideas. A waterskier of Florida came up with a new idea. In 1947 he waterskied without waterskis! He skied with bare (赤裸的) feet. Thirty years later, in 1977 Billy Nicholaus also skied with bare feet. In fact, he set a record because he skied barefoot for two hours, forty-two minutes and thirty-nine seconds!

Waterskiers have done amazing things on skis too. In 1971 Danny Churchill skied at a speed of more than 125 miles per hour. That was the highest speed in the 1970s. Six years later Will Coughey skied 1,124 miles without stopping! In 1979, Sammy Duvall, jumped 182 feet off a ramp (斜坡), landing on the water.

The sport hasn’t stopped changing. Today boats tow waterskiers wearing parachutes. When the boat picks up enough speed, the skiers leave the water and start flying. Other people ride a jet-powered ski and ski across the water on their own.

49. The passage is mainly about _____.

A. the best way to learn waterskiing

B.   the comparisons between waterskiing and snow skiing

C.    the beginning and development of waterskiing

A. People used a jet-powered ski.

B. A man of Florida skied with bare feet.

C.Ralph Samuelson tried waterskiing.

D. Billy Nicholaus set a record.

A. waterskiing is a sport as old as snow skiing

B. waterskiing has a history of less than 100 years

More than four out of five people admit to telling little white lies at least once a day and the preferred way of “being economical with the truth” is to use technology such as cellphones, text messages and e-mails, a survey said last Thursday.

    Imagination and fantasy can play an important role in achieving the things we fear. Children know this very well. Fred Epstein , in his book If I Make It to Five, tells a story he heard from one of friends about Tom, a four-year-old boy with a cancer in his back bone. He came through several operations and a lot of pain by mastering his imagination.

    The day before his third trip to the operating room, Tom was terribly afraid.”Maybe I could go as Superman ,”he whispered to his mom. Hearing this, the mother hesitated for a while. She had avoided buying the expensive costume(戏装)，but finally she agreed.
