Is frgiveness against ur human nature? T answer ur questin, we need t ask a further questin: What is the essence f ur humanity? Fr the sake f simplicity, peple cnsider tw distinctly different views f humanity.
The first view invlves dminance and pwer. In an early paper n the psychlgy f frgiveness, Drll (1984) made the interesting claim that humans’ essential nature is mre aggressive than frgiving allws. Thse wh frgive are against their basic nature, much t their harm. In his pinin, frgivers are cmprmising their well-being as they ffer mercy t thers, wh might then take advantage f them.
The secnd view invlves the theme f cperatin, mutual respect, and even lve as the basis f wh we are as humans. Researchers find that t fully grw as human beings, we need bth t receive lve frm and ffer lve t thers. Withut lve, ur cnnectins with a wide range f individuals in ur lives can fall apart. Even cmmn sense strngly suggests that the will t pwer ver thers des nt make fr harmnius interactins. Fr example, hw well has slavery wrked as a mde f scial harmny?
Frm this secnd viewpint f wh we are as humans, frgiveness plays a key rle in the bilgical and psychlgical integrity f bth individuals and cmmunities because ne f the utcmes f frgiveness, shwn thrugh scientific studies, is the decreasing f hate and the restratin f harmny. Frgiveness can break the cycle f anger. At least t the extent the peple frm whm yu are estranged (不和的) accept yur lve and frgiveness and are prepared t make the required adjustments. Frgiveness can heal relatinships and recnnect peple.
As an imprtant nte, when we take a classical philsphical perspective, we see the distinctin between ptentiality and actuality. We are nt necessarily brn with the capacity t frgive, but instead with the ptential t learn abut it and t grw in ur ability t frgive. The actuality f frgiving, in real situatins, develps with practice.
14. What is Drll’s idea abut frgiveness?
A. Peple shuld ffer mercy t thers.
B. Aggressive peple shuld learn t frgive.
C. Frgiveness depends n the nature f humanity.
D. Peple wh frgive can have their wn welfare affected.
15. What des the example in Paragraph 3 illustrate?
A. T fight is t grw.B. T give is t receive.
C. T frgive is t abuse.D. T dminate is t harm.
16. What is the writer’s attitude tward frgiveness?
A. Favrable.B. Reserved.C. Objective.D. Skeptical.
17. What message des the last paragraph cnvey?
A. Frgiveness is in ur nature.B. Frgiveness grws with time.
C. It takes practice t frgive.D. Actuality is based n ptentiality.

Emily Harper sat at her desk, staring blankly at the math prblems in frnt f her. Numbers and variables danced cnfusingly acrss the page, laughing at her every effrt. At schl, Emily was knwn fr her artistic talents, but math had always been her weakness. N matter hw hard she tried, she just culdn’t make sense f it.
Her struggles nly wrsened in the 10th grade. The pressure t keep up with her classmates grew, and the pr grades shk her cnfidence. Her parents decided t step in. “We need t find yu sme help.” her mther gently suggested ne evening.
Then came Mr. Jenkins, a retired lcal teacher knwn fr his unique teaching style. Emily was initially resistant; the idea f spending extra hurs n a subject she hated seemed like a punishment. But she unwillingly agreed, knwing smething had t change.
Their first sessin was tense. Mr. Jenkins, sensing her frustratin, didn’t dive straight int prblems. Instead, he asked abut her interests. When Emily spke passinately abut her painting, he smiled. “Math is like art, Emily. It has patterns and beauty if yu knw where t lk.”
Dubtful but inspired, Emily listened as he began t explain cncepts thrugh visual examples. He used clrs and shapes, turning abstract numbers int smething almst tangible (有形的). Fr the first time, math seemed less like a freign language and mre like a puzzle waiting t be slved.
Hwever, prgress was slw. Weeks passed with minimal imprvement, and Emily’s patience wre thin. A particularly difficult quiz left her in tears, cnvinced she was sure t fail. Mr. Jenkins said. “Remember, Emily, every artist starts with a blank canvas, Masterpieces aren’t created vernight.”
Encuraged by his firm belief, Emily pushed n. She began t see the cnnectins between the steps, hw each there, celebrating her successes, n matter hw minr.
