It’s never easy to admit you are in the wrong. Being humans, 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; it stays out of balance until fault is acknowledged and regret is 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(失眠症) 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 elder brother, who lived abroad, of his inheritance(遗产). Then and there the wise old doctor made the man write to his elder brother asking forgiveness and enclosing a check as the first step in restoring their good relations. The doctor 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.
What had the patient done to his elder brother?
选项
A、He had sent his elder brother abroad.
B、He had cheated his elder brother of his inheritance.
C、He had given just a little share of the inheritance to his elder brother.
D、He had gone abroad, leaving his elder brother nothing.
答案
B
解析
根据第三段第一句“…as executor of his father’s will, he had been cheating his elder brother, who lived abroad, of his inheritance. ”可知,作为父亲的遗嘱执行人,他一直在欺骗自己住在国外的哥哥,阻止他得到遗产。故选B。
