Ryan Howes, a clinical psychologist from California, says "Forgiveness is a sensitive act that can feel like it opens us up to more pain． But we need to have a way to process and let go of the effects of injury, or we risk serious physical and emotional consequences．"
People who forgive tend to have better relationships, feel happier and more optimistic, and overall, enjoy better psychological well-being．  小题1:  It's a difficult process．
There's no single guidebook for forgiveness, though several experts sell their own methods．
Howes suggests focusing on four elements:
Express the emotion． Let yourself feel hurt and angry． Express it to the person who made you feel that way．  小题2:  Write a letter; you don't need to send it． Shout your emotions at the top of your lungs while you're in the car, alone, with the windows down．
__小题3: We want explanations ?even if we don't agree with them． "Was it a misunderstanding? Were you mad at me? Some sort of cognitive framework （认知框架） is necessary, even if you don't like the reason．"
Rebuild safety．小题4:  That might mean an apology, reassurance from the person in question, distance or stronger boundaries．
Let go． Perhaps it's the hardest part: making a conscious decision not to hold a grudge （怨恨）．
If you're in a relationship, this means not bringing up past wrongs． By letting go, you give up
your role as the victim and become equals again．  小题5:

A．Otherwise, talk to a friend or even an empty chair

B．Control your feelings

C．Understand why

D．Before you forgive, you need to feel reasonably sure that the act won't reoccur

E．Still, no one ever said forgiveness was easy
F．It's a promise to yourself to stop feeling hurt and to fully move on
G．You may feel helpless, or like life is meaningless

My name is Clara. I still remember that chilly December day, sitting in science class. I’d finished a worksheet early and picked up a TIME for Kids magazine. A piece of news caught my eye: NASA was holding an essay contest to name its Mars rover(火星探测器).Before I even knew anything else about it, a single word flooded my 11-year-old mind, Curiosity.
I couldn’t want for the bell to ring so I could get started on my essay. That afternoon, I raced home, sat down at the computer, and typed until my fingers ached. “Curiosity is an everlasting flame that burns in everyone’s mind...”
Five months later, my mom received a phone call, and immediately, a wide smile spread across her face.
On August 5,2012,at 10:31 p.m, the rover named Curiosity touched down safely on the surface of Mars, and I was honored to have a front-row seat in NASA.
Curiosity is such an important part of who I am. I have always been fascinated by the stars, the planets, the sky and the universe. I remember as a little girl, my grandmother and I would sit together in the backyard for hours. She’d tell me stories and point out the stars, Grandma lived in China, thousands of miles away from my home in Kansas, but the stars kept us together even when we were apart. They were always there, yet there was so much I didn’t know about them. That’s what I love so much about space.
People often ask me why we go to faraway places like Mares. My answer is simple because we’re curious. We human beings do not just hole up in one place. We are constantly wondering and trying to find out what’s over the hill and beyond the horizon.
小题1:How did Clara get the new about the essay contest?( no more than 10 words)
小题2:Why did Clara have a front-row seat in NASA?( no more than 10 words)
小题3:What does Clara remember about the time spent with Grandma?( no more than 15 words)
小题4:What does the underlined phrase “hole up”mean?(1 word)
小题5:In your opinion, why is curiosity important?( no more than 20 words)
