Answer 1

解答 36．B．推理判斷題．Try the following steps試試以下措施，根據這句可知，前面問的是"應該怎樣開始原諒他人呢？"，B項符合語境，故選B．
37．F．推理判斷題．Calm yourself…take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure首先要冷靜，深呼吸，或者想象一些令人愉快的事情，F(xiàn)"讓憤怒逐漸消散，嘗試一個簡單的壓力管理技巧"符合語境，故選F．
38．G．推理判斷題．Don't wait for an apology．Many times the person who hurt you does not intend to apologize．不要等著他人道歉，傷害你的人不會想著向你道歉，由此可知，本段講的是不能等著他人來給你道歉，G"如果等他人來道歉，你可能會等相當長的時間"符合語境，故選G．
39．D．推理判斷題．If you understand your offender，you may realize that he or she was acting out of unawareness，fear，and even love．如果你理解惹怒你的人，你可能會意識到他是無意傷害你的．D"試著站在對方的角度思考問題"符合語境，故選D．
40．E．推理判斷題．Don't forget to forgive yourself．要記得原諒你自己，E"對一些人來說，自我原諒是最大的挑戰(zhàn)"符合語境，故選E．
