When someone has1.(deep)hurt you, it can be very difficult to let go of your anger. But forgiveness is possible and it can be surprisingly2.(benefit) to your physical and mental health. So far, studies3.(show)that people who forgive can have more energy, better appetite and better sleep. “People who forgive show4.(little)anger and more hopefulness, ”says Dr Frederic Luskin, who wrote the book Forgive for Good. “So it can help reduce the tiredness out of the immune system and allow people5.(feel) more energetic. ”
So when someone has hurt you, cool down first. Take a couple of breaths and think of something6.gives you pleasure:a beautiful scene in nature, or someone you love. Don’t wait for an7.(apologize). “Many times the person who hurt you may never think of apologizing, ”says Dr Luskin. “They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don’t see things in the same way. So if you wait for people to say sorry, you could be waiting for a very long time. ”
Next keep8.mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean9.(accept) the action of the person who10.(upset) you. Instead, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you. Finally, try to see things from the other person’s perspective. You may realize that he or she was acting out of ignorance. To gain perspective, you may want to write a letter to yourself from that person’s point of view.

When everything goes wrong, always look at what you have, instead of what you have lost. Because it’s not what the world takes away from you that counts; it’s what you do with what you have left.1.
Pain is part of growing.
Sometimes life closes doors because it’s time to move forward.2.When times are tough, remind yourself that no pain comes without a purpose. Remember that there are two kinds of pain: pain that hurts and pain that changes you. When you roll with life, instead of resisting it, both kinds help you grow.
3.
Every time you get hurt, you heal. After darkness there is always light – you are reminded of this every morning, but still you often forget, and instead choose to believe that the night will last forever. It won’t. Nothing lasts forever.
Complaining changes nothing.
4.It’s always better to attempt to do something great and fail than to attempt to do nothing and succeed. It’s not over if you’ve lost; it’s over when you do nothing but complain about it. If you believe in something, keep trying. Don’t let the shadows of the past darken the doorstep of your future.
The best thing you can do is to keep going.
Don’t be afraid to get back up----to try again, to love again, to live again, and to dream again. Don’t let a hard lesson harden your heart. Life’s best lessons are often learned at the worst times and from the worst mistakes. There will be times when it seems like everything that could possibly go wrong is going wrong.5.
A. Everything in life is temporary.
B. And even if you fall short, keep going.
C. Your scars are symbols of your strength.
D. Those who complain the most, accomplish the least.
E.Here are a few tips to inspire you when you need it most.
F.That’s a good thing because we often won’t move unless life forces us to .
G.When you feel like quitting, remember that sometimes things can be right eventually.
It's already challenging enough for environmentalists to keep beaches clear of washed up trash(垃圾) and plastic debris(残骸), but the most difficult problem lies in cleaning up all of the millions of tiny microplastics that are impossible to pick up and separate from the sand.
Fortunately, a group of engineering students succeeded in developing a massive new vacuum cleaner that can collect microplastics without removing any of the sand from the beach. The 12 Canadian students from the University of Sherbrooke in Quebec built their Hoola One plastic vacuum cleaner as a class project.
"We did some research and we realized there was no machine around the world to do this kind of job," Hoola One co-founder Sam Duval told Hawaii Public Radio. "So we told each other, 'We will invent it,' and we did it."
As a means of testing their machine's efficiency, they recently used it on the sands of Hawaii's Kamilo Beach, which is also notorious for being one of the dirtiest beaches in the world. Though their first prototype(原型)experienced a number of technical issues, the students managed to fix the problems and tidy up the beach.
Using a handheld tube, the machine sucks(吸入)up plastic and sand and dumps them all into a massive tank of water. Since rocks and sand are heavier than plastic, they sink to the bottom of the tank so they can be dumped back onto the beach. The plastic, on the other hand, floats to the top of the tank.
According to Hawaii Public Radio, the team left the Hoola One vacuum on the island as a donation to the state department- They are now researching the ecological effects of the vacuum on the beach while they search for funding and sponsorships(赞助)to produce more Hoola One vacuums.
1.What is the hardest problem of keeping the beach clean?
A.Picking up plastic debris.

2.What do we know about the Hoola One plastic vacuum cleaner?
A.It can collect plastics without removing sand from the beach.
B.It has been used widely on the beaches around the world.
C.The students tested its efficiency on Hawaii's Kamilo Beach.
D.The students gave up the first prototype due to several failures.
3.What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?
A.The working procedure of the vacuum cleaner.
B.The invention process of the vacuum cleaner.
C.The ecological impacts of the vacuum cleaner.
D.The special materials of the vacuum cleaner.
4.What words can best describe the 12 Canadian students?
A.Generous and stubborn. B.Confident and persistent.

Just what is a tiger mother？Amy Chua is a law professor at America's Yale University and her recent book on the subject is making waves. She's been called “dangerous”，“outrageous”，even a “monster” for her descriptions of how she brought up her two daughters.
Her book Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother describes fighting with a daughter for hours at the piano to ensure the child gets a piece of music right. She rejected birthday cards made for her by her girls because she didn't think they had made enough effort. She compared one child negatively with the other，threatening to burn their toys. Her rules include：schoolwork always comes first; an A minus is a bad grade; children must be two years ahead of their classmates in math，and playing the violin or the piano is a must.
Ms. Chua considers the Chinese hard work ethic(道德) as a way of creating happy，successful children—at least in her case. Although she's had a large amount of flak for her theories，one thing can't be ignored—the success of Chinese children in the education system.
In Britain，shocking research shows that Chinese girls，for example，are outperforming all other foreign groups at GCSE—79 percent getting 5 A C Grades，compared with 58 percent of white British girls. So what is it about Chinese parenting that's leading to high achievers？And how do Amy Chua's theories play into that success?
She told me that if her daughter came back from school with 96/100 in a test，Chua would ask her what happened to the other 4 points. It's about always knowing “you can do better”，she told me.
Interestingly，in China，the birthplace of the tiger mother，people are moving away from traditional Chinese parenting. They are following more western parenting styles.

A.feel very sorry for their own children

2.The underlined word in the third paragraph probably means_____.
