小題4:safety
小題5:.him
小題6:.a(chǎn)
小題7:To
小題8:for
小題9:but
小題10:dying

小題1:down [從下文的needed a ride可知,她的車壞了。break down意為“拋錨”。]
小題2:decided [整篇文章均使用過去時態(tài)敘事,這里也應(yīng)用一般過去時,故用decided。]
小題3:to help [stop doing sth.意為“停止做某事”,stop to do 意為“停下來去做某事”;根據(jù)句意此處應(yīng)為stop to do sth.。一個年輕的白人停下來幫她的忙。]
小題4:safety [在介詞to后要用safe的名詞形式。本句意為:那個男子把她帶到了一個安全的地方。]
小題5:him [那個男子幫了她,應(yīng)該是感謝那個男子,故用him。]
小題6:a [從句子結(jié)構(gòu)和語境可知,這里指有人敲門。此處knock意為“敲門聲”,是可數(shù)名詞。]
小題7:To [to one’s surprise“令某人驚奇的是”。]
小題8:for [thank sb.for doing sth.是固定搭配,意為“感謝某人做某事”。]
小題9:but [從下文提到的事情可知,這個婦女要趕去見丈夫最后一面,當車拋錨時感到非常絕望,所以說雨水不僅淋濕了她的衣服,而且擊垮了她的精神。此處用到的是not only...but also...結(jié)構(gòu),其中also可省略。]
小題10:dying [husband是名詞,要用形容詞修飾。dying意為“臨終的”。]

Forgiveness
(2013·高考遼寧卷)To forgive is a virtue,but no one has ever said it is easy.When someone has deeply hurt you,it can be extremely difficult to let go of your hate.However,forgiveness is possible,and it can be surprisingly beneficial to your physical and mental health.People who forgive show less sadness,anger and stress and more hopefulness,according to a recent research.
小題1:_ Try the following steps:
Calm yourself.__ 小題2:__ You can take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure:a beautiful scene in nature,or someone you love.
Don’t wait for an apology.Many times the person who hurt you does not intend to apologize.They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don’t see things the same way.__ 小題3:_ Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean becoming friends again with the person who upset you.
Take the control away from your offender(冒犯者).Rethinking about your hurt gives power to the person who caused you pain.Instead of focusing on your wounded feelings,learn to look for the love,beauty and kindness around you.
__小題4:__ If you understand your offender,you may realize that he or she was acting out of unawareness,fear,and even love.You may want to write a letter to yourself from your offender’s point of view.
Don’t forget to forgive yourself.__ 小題5:_ But it can rob you of your self­confidence if you don’t do it.
A.Why should you forgive?
B.How should you start to forgive?
C.Recognize the benefits of forgiveness.
D.Try to see things from your offender’s angle.
E.For some people,forgiving themselves is the biggest challenge.
F.To make your anger die away,try a simple stress­management technique.
G.If you wait for people to apologize,you could be waiting an awfully long time.

Autumn blues? Let the sunshine in.
Falling leaves, dead flowers, cold winds, faint sunshine. 小題1:  Spirits can be low.
People who suffer from "the autumn blues" often are extremely exhausted, lack energy, need more sleep, feel increased appetite and gain weight.
"The exact cause of this condition, often called seasonal depression or seasonal affective disorder (SAD), is not known yet," says Chen Jue, associate professor at Shanghai Mental Health Center."But recent studies indicate that weather change is influential and strongly suggest that this condition is caused by changes in the availability of sunlight."
One theory is that with decreased exposure to sunlight, the biological clock that controls mood, sleep, and hormones is delayed, running more slowly in winter. 小題2: .Another theory is that brain chemicals that transmit(傳輸) information between nerves may be changed in individuals with SAD.It is believed that exposure to light can correct these imbalances.
  小題3:  Remember, spring always lives in your heart," Chen says.
Here are some tips to deal with autumn depression.
·Go outdoors and get some sunlight.Move around.Fresh air and exercise improve the respiratory(呼吸)system and blood circulation and regulate the nervous system.Thus, exercise is calming and relieves one's mood.
·Relax at work.Stretch, breathe deeply.Take a tea break.Think of your next vacation.
· 小題4:  Chocolate and sugar raise the spirits.
·Look at bright colors, such as red and orange.Color therapy improves mood.
·Listen to your favorite music.You can dance to it, or just lie on a cozy couch, reading a
novel.
· 小題5:  Blooming plants are cheering.
·Call friends or family when you feel lonely or depressed.Recall some happy memories.
A.Exposure to light may reset the biological clock
B.Decorate your room and work space with flowers.
C.It is a sad season, but you can try to make it happy.
D.That is the way you can use to lighten yourself.
