第二节（共5小题：每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
.It's often said that the three most powerful words in the English language are "I love you."But I
have another three words:"I forgive you."It is true that forgiveness doesn't have the same rush of
electric charge in it that love does.However,it is no less powerful.3v Yet it holds the key to
happiness in life.
There is a tendency to blame others for our faults and difficulties.37I have met so many
people who hold a grudge (and it dominates their life.Lots of people blame their parents for their

That's not weakness-it's what we are all striving for in life.In fact,forgiveness puts the person who is
doing it in a position of incredible power.
I do a lot of work around forgiveness with my patients."The day I decided to forgive him,I felt a
weight lift off me,"one of my patients said."I realized that until I forgave him,he would always have
power over me."She showed me that forgiveness is about freeing yourself.It is a display of power-of
asserting your authority and taking back control.

C.At the heart of forgiveness is inner peace.
D.Forgiveness doesn't actually involve the other person.
E.
Forgiving someone and moving on is one of life's true joys.
F.But ultimately she found peace in forgiving him unconditionally.
C But this negative thought actu
