24、Is there someone you hate? Well, maybe you don’t really hate them. But you get really angry every time you think of them. If you don’t let this anger go, it can turn into bitterness(痛苦)
Bitterness appears when we can’t forgive(原谅) someone who has hurt us or made us angry. Someone might say or do something that hurts us. But Instead of controlling the anger, we keep it deep inside. Before long, a bitter feeling begins to grow. We may think we’re hurting that person by criticizing him or her often, but we’re really only hurting ourselves.
Bitterness can not only lead to serious health problems such as heart disease, but also hurt our relationships with friends and family members. No one enjoys being around an anger person for very long.
If you see bitterness in your life, here are some ways to deal with it.
Accept it
Instead of trying to deny your anger, make it clear to yourself and accept it. See your anger for what it is and quickly deal with it.
Stop making excuses for it
You may feel you have a right to be anger. You may think you’re right and the other person is wrong. You may even secretly enjoy making the other person look bad. But in the end, bitterness hurts you much more than the other person. The bitterness will hold you back, and the other person will go on with his or her life.
Forgive and forget it
You probably can’t completely put the anger out of your mind. But you can decide to forgive the other person. Forget it and move on. You’ll enjoy better health and peace of mind.
【1】According to the passage, we might get angry when someone ______.
A.holds us back B.forgets us
C.doesn’t like us D.does hurt us
【2】Bitterness comes from_______.
A.our health problems like heart disease
B.the anger that lives deep inside our mind
C.the person who says something that hurts us
D.our relation with friends and family members
【3】The underlined word “deny” in the passage means “_____’’.
A.误解 B.否认 C.疏远 D.减轻
【4】 The best way to deal with the bitterness is to ______.
A.make the person who hurts us look bad
B.hate the person who hurts us very often
C.accept that you are hurting the other person
D.forgive the person who hurts us and forget it
【5】What can we learn from the passage?
A.We should enjoy someone who hurts us.
B.We should pay more attention to our friends.
C.The peace of mind is more important than the hurt itself.
D.It’s better to let bitterness go along with the other person.
25、People are always afraid of making mistakes. But sometimes it’s not bad to make mistakes, and here is why.
At first, mistakes are a clear sign that you are trying new things. It’s always good to try new things, because when you are trying new things you are growing. If you never try new things, how can you improve? How can you create? The simple answer is, “You can’t.” Look around you, everything you see is the result of someone trying new things.
Another good thing about mistakes is this: when you are making mistakes, you are learning. Consider this: Edison failed 10,000 times before he invented the light bulb. When he was asked how he felt to fail that many times, he said that he hadn’t failed 10,000 times, but rather had learned 10,000 things that didn’t work.
Finally, when you make a mistake, you are much closer to success. Why? Because you have said what you should say, and you have done what you should do. Every time you make a mistake, you are closer to success. But it doesn’t mean that you can make mistakes without thinking. Instead, when you try new things you have to think them over, so that you can keep away from some unnecessary mistakes.
We shouldn’t spend all our time and money on the only one way, but use them correctly. Because our time and money are limited (有限的).
There is an old saying. “If you are not making mistakes, you are not trying hard enough.” So go bravely and make mistakes. And learn. And grow. And succeed.
【1】 If you making a mistake, that means ________.
A. you’re careful B. you’re kind
C. you’re growing D. you know nothing
【2】If you never try new things, you can’t ________.
A. improve B. create C. spend D. A and B
【3】After Edison failed 10,000 times, he ________.
A. gave up
B. invented the light bulb
C. invented the computer
D. invented 10,000 new things
【4】 What’s the main idea of the passage?
A. Never make mistakes
B. You can make mistakes without thinking.
C. Sometimes it’s good to make mistakes
D. Making mistakes is terrible.
