When we have done something wrong, we should
M: It’s never easy to admit you are in the wrong. Being human, we all need to know the art of apologizing. Look back with honesty and think how often you’ve judged roughly, said unkind things; pushed yourself ahead at the expense of a friend. Then count the occasions when you indicated clearly and truly that you were sorry. A bit frightening, isn’t it? Frightening because some deep wisdom in us knows that whenever a small wrong has been committed, some mysterious moral feeling is disturbed; and it stays out of balance until fault is acknowledged and regret expressed.
I remember a doctor friend, the late Clarence Libel, telling me about a man who came to him with a variety of signs: headaches, insomnia and stomach trouble. No physical cause could be found. Finally Dr. Libel said to the man, "Unless you tell me what’s worrying you, I can’t help you."
After some hesitation, the man confessed that as executor of his father’s will, he had been cheating his brother, who lived abroad, of his inheritance. Then and there the wise old doctor made the man write to his brother asking forgiveness and enclosing a cheque as the first step in restoring their good relation. He then went with him to the mailbox in the corridor. As the letter disappeared, the man burst into tears. "Thank you! I think I’m cured." And he was
A heartfelt apology can not only heal a damaged relationship but also make it strong. If you can think of someone who deserves an apology from you, someone you have wronged, or judged too roughly, or just neglected, do something about it right now.
选项
A、Headaches.
B、Stomach trouble.
C、Disturbance of conscience.
D、Some unknown physical weakness.
答案
C
解析
本题考查细节理解。作者利用举例来说明道歉的重要性。例子中提到病人感到“headaches,insomnia and stomach trouble.”这些均为病人的临床症状,不是病因,所以A ,B 两项应先排除;而选项 D 并未在文章中提到,也应排除;因此所剩选项C 为正确答案。文章中提到当病人把给他哥哥的道歉信寄出去以后,便立刻感到自己的病被治愈了,而且事实上也如此,由此可见,病人的疾病不是身体上的原因,而是由于良心上的不安造成的。
