Answers:1.選C)。此處應(yīng)填形容詞。從后面的pushed yourself ahead at the expense of a friend可知，說的是不好的話，可選項有unkind和unfaithful，但由前面的judged roughly粗魯?shù)脑u判可知這里表示說話時不考慮他人的感受，因此unkind刻薄的更加符合上下文語氣。
2.選K)。由clearly and一詞可知，此處應(yīng)填副詞，與closely一起修飾道歉時的情形。選項有accurately和truly,由回想一下你曾明確地并......地表示自己歉意的場合，能使句意通順的是truly真誠地，而accurately一般表示(數(shù)據(jù)計算得)精確地，故排除。
3.選N)。it stays out of balance until...，其中it=some mysterious moral feeling可推出，出于道義上的原因，人會感到不安，故選disturbed不安的。而confessed公開承認(rèn)的不符合句意。
4.選D)。此處應(yīng)填名詞。從知道承認(rèn)錯誤，表達(dá)......之后，才能覺得安心，選項中只有regret歉意符合題意。
5.選H)。此處應(yīng)填形容詞。由headaches，insomnia(失眠)and stomach trouble可推出，可選項有mental和physical，由朋友的話Unless... Worrying you, I cant helPyou. 可知這個人是由于心理上的原因，而不是生理上的，故選physical即No physical cause...。
6.選F)。此處應(yīng)填動詞。選項中的動詞有confessed，cured和disturbed，但由After some hesitation可推出，此人是在向醫(yī)生坦白情況，故選擇confessed坦白。
7.選G)。此處應(yīng)填名詞。由as executor of his fathers will可推知，此處說明的是，在遺產(chǎn)繼承方面，他一直在欺騙他居住在國外的兄弟，故只有選項inheritance符合題意。
8.選M)。此處應(yīng)填名詞。由restoring their good relation可推知，他是寫信給他兄弟請求原諒，故選項中只有forgiveness符合題意。選項中excuse用作名詞時，一般解釋為理由，借口而沒有原諒的意思，故排除。
9.選I)。由第二段最后一句wahts worrying you和這個人的感情Thank you可推出，此處說明的是醫(yī)生治好了他的心病，選項中只有cured符合題意。
10.選A)。此處應(yīng)填動詞的圓形。But also make it stronger使人際關(guān)系更加穩(wěn)固，it指代a damaged relationship，由此可知，空格處應(yīng)填表示修復(fù)的詞，選項中的heal則有治愈，修復(fù)的意思，符合原文意思。treat一般專指醫(yī)學(xué)上的治療，用在此處不合適。

全文翻譯：要承認(rèn)你自己的錯誤，并非易事。作為人來說，我們有必要了解道歉的藝術(shù)。用誠實的態(tài)度作個回顧，想想自己曾經(jīng)作過多少次粗魯?shù)脑u判，說過多少次不友好的話，或者做過多少次以犧牲朋友為代價而凸顯自己的事情。然后清點一下你曾明確并誠懇地表示自己歉意的場合。事實有些令人不安，不是嗎?你感到不安是因為我們從內(nèi)心深處知道，即便犯了一個小小的錯誤，出于道德情感，會感到心神不安;非要承認(rèn)錯誤，表達(dá)歉意之后，才能覺得安心。我記得我的一位當(dāng)醫(yī)生的朋友，告訴我有個人找他看病。這個人表現(xiàn)出幾種不同的癥狀，頭疼，失眠，胃疼，但又找不到任何生理方面的原因。最后，利伯醫(yī)生對這個人說，除非你告訴我你的煩惱，否則我?guī)筒涣四?。片刻猶豫之后，這個人坦言，作為他父親遺囑的執(zhí)行人，在遺產(chǎn)繼承方面，他一直在欺騙他居住在國外的兄弟。當(dāng)場，這位明智的老醫(yī)生就要求這個人給他的兄弟寫信請求寬恕，并附支票一張作為恢復(fù)他們友好關(guān)系的第一步。然后，醫(yī)生陪這個人到走廊里的郵箱去寄信。當(dāng)信寄出后，此人放聲大哭，非常感謝，他說，我想我痊愈了。他的確好了。真心誠意的道歉不僅能修復(fù)已經(jīng)遭到破壞的人際關(guān)系，而且能使這種關(guān)系變得更加穩(wěn)固。如果你想起了某個值得你道歉的人，或者你冤枉過的或僅僅是忽視了的人，那么現(xiàn)在就快去道個歉吧。閱讀文章的結(jié)構(gòu)了解文章的結(jié)構(gòu)，能夠讓我們在閱讀時更迅速地把握文章的脈絡(luò)和文章主旨，對于提高做題效率更有重要意義。 文章的結(jié)構(gòu)模式大體上分為四類。這四類文章在一篇文章中并不是獨立存在的，有時往往是幾種段落結(jié)構(gòu)模式交織在一起?？偡中?這類文章遵循從觀點到材料，從抽象到具體的邏輯法則，其基本框架是先總論后分論，中心論點出現(xiàn)在分論之前。問題解決型 首先說明情況和背景，然后提出問題，接著作出反應(yīng)，也就是解決問題，當(dāng)然問題也可能沒有解決或沒有完全解決，最后給予適當(dāng)?shù)脑u價或者分析?？傮w布局上有時會舍去背景部分或評價部分。匹配型 段落的發(fā)展主線為兩種事物之間的類比：兩種論點概論----一種論點----另一種論點;或者是現(xiàn)象----一種事物----另一種事物----得出結(jié)論。作者一般不發(fā)表態(tài)度和結(jié)論。假設(shè)真實型 文章結(jié)構(gòu)模式是：假設(shè)觀點----進(jìn)行反駁----作者觀點。作者往往在文中開頭即提出一種觀點或主張，然后從贊同與反對兩個方面進(jìn)行反駁或澄清，經(jīng)過論證之后才提出作者本人的觀點。
