19．A good apology can help you bring your relationship back to a happy place faster．（36）FTest your sorry skills，and then learn how to construct your own perfect apology．
Test Your Sorry Smarts：
The Apology：You're late for band practice，so you rush up to your conductor："Sorry!I was planning to be here early，but it's raining，so the train wasn't on time．"
Is it good or bad？Bad!（37）Awhat you should have done differently and how your mistake affected the other person："I know my lateness kept you waiting．Next time，I'11 leave earlier．"
The Apology：You lost track of time on Friday night．When your dad finds you sneaking in，you say："I'm sorry that I missed my curfew（晚间必须赶回家的时间）．I know I'm wrong，and I understand if I can't go out again until I've regained your trust．"
Is good or bad？Good!This apology works because you point out exactly where you had a lapse（疏忽）in judgment．It's important，to acknowledge that you're apologizing because you knew a rule but broke it anyway．（38）E
A sincere"SORRY!"is a tricky deal，but these tips will get it done right：
First，apologize as soon as possible in person．For an apology to sound sincere，you need to talk face-to-face．
Second，don't forget to actually ask："Will you please forgive me？"（39）G
Also，don't apologize just to make peace．（40）C Apologies lose their power if they aren't sincerely given!

A．Don't make excuses!
B．He needs to know it's not your fault!
C．If you truly don't feel you have any fault，don't apologize．
D．Accepting an apology is just as important as giving one out．
E．You're also expressing that you've learned from your mistakes．
F．A bad apology can actually ruin a friendship even faster than total silence．
G．You may think it's suggested，but no apology is complete without these magic words．

分析本文主要介绍了一个好的道歉可以帮助你和别人相处的很快乐；一个不好的道歉实际上比沉默更容易破坏一段友情．不要因为犯错误而找各种理由，真诚的道歉才是对的．此外，不要仅仅为了和解而道歉，如果你连你错哪了都不知道，道歉又有什么意义呢？

解答 36----40 FAEGC
36．F语境辨析题．根据上句A good apology can help you bring your relationship back to a happy place faster．可知一个好的道歉可以帮助你和别人相处的很快乐．F项：A bad apology can actually ruin a friendship even faster than total silence．一个不好的道歉实际上比沉默更容易破坏一段友情．符合语境，故选F．
37．A理解辨析题．上一段提到因为迟到而做出了种种解释．此处想表达的意思是不要找借口，勇敢的承认自己迟到了．A项：Don't make excuses!不要找借口．符合文意，故选A．
38．E联系上文题．根据上文内容可知，承认错误并且道歉是好的，重要的．E项：You're also expressing that you've learned from your mistakes．你也觉得你从犯的错误中学到了很多．符合文意，故选E．
39．G文章衔接题．根据上句don't forget to actually ask："Will you please forgive me？"可知不要忘记说这么一句话："你会原谅我吗？"G项：You may think it's suggested，but no apology is complete without these magic words．你或许认为它是无关紧要的，但是没有这些神奇的话语，道歉是成功不了的．符合文意，故选G．
40．C联系上下文．根据上句don't apologize just to make peace．不要仅仅为了和解而道歉．根据下句Apologies lose their power if they aren't sincerely given!可知如果你不是真诚地道歉，那么就没有意义了．C项：If you truly don't feel you have any fault，don't apologize．如果你真没觉得你错了，那么就别道歉．故选C．

7．There are probably no people on Earth who like to gossip as much as the British．If prying into（打探）other's lives were an Olympic sport，then Team GB would surely take the gold medal．
And when the British can't watch the lives of real people，they have another source of entertainment to fall back on-the soap opera．British soap operas are very different from US TV dramas．For one，they are normally longer running．The two most popular，Coronation Street and East-enders，have been running for 48 and 24 years respectively．Both are broadcast several times a week，so remarkably there have been more than 7，000 episodes of Coronation Street．
The most obvious difference is that，unlike US dramas，the British soap operas focus on the real world．There is little glamour（魅力），the stars are rarely rich，and they normally have boring jobs．Perhaps the appeal is that the lives of the characters often mirror the lives of the audience-but with some drama added．This means the viewer can relate to the characters and feel the pain and happiness they go through on the show．
Because thesesoapoperas last fordecades，the cast is ever changing，The shows rarely focus on oneor two main characters．Like the real world，people come and go all the time．However，there are exceptions．Street's william Roach，76，has played the role of Ken Barlow since the very first episode of the show in 1960，and he is still a regular．
The choice of which soap opera you follow is often cultural：People from the north of British tend to watch Coronation Street as it is set in Manchester．People from the south generally prefer East-enders，which is set in the east of London．The show is generally considered grittier and is aimed at a younger audience．
