Building Trust in a Relationship Again

Trust is a learned behavior that we gain from past experiences. ____1____ Trust is a risk. But you can’t be successful when there’s a lack of trust in a relationship that results from an action where the wrongdoer takes no responsibility to fix the mistake.

Unfortunately, we’ve all been victims of betrayal. Whether we’ve been stolen from, lied to, misled, or cheated on, there are different levels of losing trust. Sometimes people simply can’t trust anymore. ____2____ It’s understandable, but if you’re willing to build trust in a relationship again, we have some steps you can take to get you there.

●____3____ Having confidence in yourself will help you make better choices because you can see what the best outcome would be for your wellbeing.

●____4____ If you’ve been betrayed, you are the victim of your circumstance. But there’s a difference between being a victim and living with a ＂victim mentality＂. At some point in all of our lives, we’ll have our trust tested or violated.

●You didn’t lose ＂everything＂. Once trust is lost, what is left? Instead of looking at the situation from this hopeless angle, look at everything you still have and be thankful for all of the good in your life. ____5____ Instead, it’s a healthy way to work through the experience to allow room for positive growth and forgiveness.

A. Learn to really trust yourself.

B. It is putting confidence in someone.

C. Stop regarding yourself as the victim.

D. Remember that you can expect the best in return.

E. They’ve been too badly hurt and they can’t bear to let it happen again.

F. This knowledge carries over in their attitude toward their future relationships.

【2】E

【3】A

【4】C

【5】G

【解析】

【语篇解读】本文介绍三种策略，帮助我们重新建立信任关系。

【1】根据上句＂信任是我们从过去的经历中获取的一种行为＂和下句＂信任是一种冒险＂可知，此空填B，本句是对第一句话的进一步解释：＂信任是信赖某人＂。

【2】上句＂有时，人们简直无法再信任(别人)了＂，下句＂这是可以理解的＂，由此可推测本句是解释人们无法信任某人的原因。故填E。

【3】由下句＂对自己有信心能帮助你作出更好的选择＂可知，前一句应是＂学会真正信任自己＂，故填A。

【4】由本段最后一句＂在我们生活中的某些时候，我们的信任会被检验或打破＂可知，此处应填C，意为＂不要认为自己是个受害者＂。

【5】副词＂Instead＂表示转折，由此可推测这里应是＂看到事物积极的一面并不意味着你无视已经发生的事＂。故填G。
