When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be very difficult to let go of your anger. But forgiveness is possible — and it can be surprisingly 【1】 (benefit) to your physical and mental health. So far, research 【2】 (show) that people who forgive can have more energy, better appetite and better sleep. “People who forgive show 【3】 (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 people 【4】 (feel) more energetic.”

So when someone has hurt you, cool down first. Take a couple of breaths and think of something __【5】 gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, or someone you love. Don’t wait for an 【6】 (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 【7】 same way. So if you wait for people to say sorry, you could be waiting a very long time.”

Next keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean 【8】 (accept) the action of the person who upsets you. 【9】, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you.

【4】to feel

【5】that

【6】apology

【7】the

【8】accepting

【9】Instead

【10】yourself

【解析】

试题分析：人都有可能受到别人的伤害，因此学会原谅很重要。因此本文介绍怎样学会原谅别人。

【1】beneficial考查形容词。be beneficial to对……有益，故用beneficial。

【2】has shown考查现在完成时。由于本句有短语so far，因此需用现在完成时，又因为主语为research为抽象名词，因此需用第三人称单数，故用has shown。

【3】less 考查比较级。能够原谅别人的人显示更少的愤怒、更多的希望。little的比较级形式为less，故用less。

【4】to feel 考查动词非谓语形式。allow somebody to do something允许某人做某事，故用to feel。

【5】that 考查定语从句关系代词。本句为定语从句，修饰先行词something，故用that。如果先行词是不定代词，则定语从句中的关系代词只能是that。

【6】apology 考查名词。an之后接名词单数，故用apology。

【7】the 考查冠词。same前通常都要加定冠词the。

【8】accepting 考查动词用法。本句中谓语动词mean（意味着），后接doing，故用accepting。

【9】Instead 考查副词。根据前后句意思的转折，再结合此空的特点，故用表转折关系的副词Instead。

【10】yourself 考查反身代词。由于主语为you，给自己写一封信，因此用yourself。
