Forgive and forget. Most of us find the forgetting easier, but maybe we should work on the forgiving part. " Holding on to hurts wears you down physically and emotionally, " says Stanford U-niversity psychologist Fred Luskin, author of Forgive for Good. "Forgiving someone can be a powerful remedy. "
In a recent study, Charlotte van Oyen Witvliet, assistant professor of psychology at Hope College in Holland, Michigan, and colleagues asked 71 volunteers to remember a past hurt. Tests recorded sudden increases in blood pressure, heart rate and muscle tension—the same responses that occur when people are beside themselves. Research has linked temper and heart diseases. When the volunteers were asked to imagine forgiving those who’d wronged them, they remained calm by comparison.
What’s more, forgiveness can be learned, insists Luskin, director of the Stanford Forgiveness Project. "We teach people to rewrite their story in their minds, to change from victim to hero. If the hurt is from a husband’s or a wife’s unfaithfulness, we might encourage them to think of themselves not only as a person who was cheated on, but as the person who tried to keep the marriage together. "Two years ago Luskin tested his method on five Northern Irish women whose sons had been murdered. After undergoing a week of forgiveness training, the women’s sense of hurt, measured using psychological tests, had fallen by more than half. They were also much less likely to feel depressed and angry. "Forgiving isn’t about regarding what happened as harmless or acceptable, " says Luskin. "It is about breaking free of the person who wronged us. "
The early signs that forgiving improves overall health are promisings. A survey of 1, 423 a-dults by the University of Michigan’s Institute for Social Research in 2001 found that people who had forgiven someone in their past also reported being in better health than those who hadn’t.
However, while 75 per cent said they were sure God had forgiven them for past mistakes, only 52 per cent had been able to find it in their hearts to forgive others. Forgiveness, it seems, is still divine.
According to the text, to forgive means_______.
选项
A、to keep silent when someone hurts you article
B、to stop being angry with those who wronged you
C、to think of something tolerable that has happened
D、to prevent yourself from doing wrong to your enemies
答案
B
解析
推断题。第三段中说到原谅不是认为发生的事是无害的或是可以接受的,而是从伤害我们的人中解脱出来,四个选项中只有B符合条件。故选B。
