   I recently heard a story about a famous scientist who had made several very important medical breakthroughs (突破). A reporter asked him why he was able to be so much more creative than common people.

   He replied that it all came from an experience with his mother when he was about five years old. He dropped a bottle of milk when he was trying to remove it from the fridge, the milk in the bottle running all over the kitchen floor.

   When his mother came in, instead of shouting at him or giving him a lesson, she said, “Robert, what a wonderful picture you have ‘drawn’! I have seldom seen such a huge pool of milk. Well, the damage has already been done. Would you like to get down and play in the milk for a few minutes before we clean it up?”

   His mother then said, “You know, what we have here is a failed experiment on how to effectively carry a big milk bottle with two tiny hands. Let’s go out in the backyard and fill the bottle with water and see if you can make it. ” The little boy learned that if he held the bottle at the top near the lip with both hands, he could carry it without dropping. What a wonderful lesson!

Questions 24 to 27 are based on the following passage.

   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 recent research. How should you start to forgive? Try the following steps:

   Calm yourself. To make your anger die away, try a simple stress-management technique. You can lake 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 hurl you, or they just don’t see things the same way. If you wait for people to apologize, you could be waiting an awfully long time. Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean becoming friends again with the person who upset you.

   Take control away from your offender. Rethinking your hurl gives power to the person who causes you pain. Instead of focusing on your wounded feelings, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you.

   Try to see things from your offender’s angle. 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. For some people, forgiving themselves is the biggest challenge.
