Well, maybe you dont really hate him. But you get really angry every time you think of him. If you dont let this anger go, it can turn into bitterness (痛苦).Bitterness appears when we cant forgive someone who has hurt us or made us angry. Someone might say or do something that hurts us. But instead of controlling the anger, we keep it deep inside. Before long, a bitter feeling begins to grow. We may think were hurting that person by criticizing (指责) him or her often, but were really only hurting ourselves.Bitterness can not only lead to serious health problems such as heart disease, but also hurt our relationships with friends and family members. No one enjoys being around an angry person for very long.If you see bitterness in your life, here are some ways to deal with it.Accept itInstead of trying to deny your anger, make it clear to yourself and accept it. See your anger for what it is and quickly deal with it.Stop making excuses for itYou may feel you have a right to be angry. You may think youre right and the other person is wrong. You may even secretly enjoy making the other person look bad. But in the end, bitterness hurts you much more than the other person. The bitterness will hold you back, and the other person will go on with his or her life.Forgive and forget itYou probably cant completely put the anger out of your mind. But you can decide to forgive the other person. Forget it and move on. Youll enjoy better health and peace of mind.（1）According to the passage, we might get angry when someone _.A . holds us backB . forgets usC . doesnt like usD . hurts us（2）Bitterness comes from _.A . our health problems like heart diseaseB . the anger that lives deep inside our mindsC . the person who says something that hurts usD . our relationships with friends and family members（3）The underlined word deny means _ in Chinese.A . 误解B . 否认C . 疏远D . 减轻（4）What can we learn from the passage?A . We should enjoy someone who hurts us.B . We should pay more attention to our friends.C . The peace of mind is more important than the hurt itself.D . Its better to let bitterness go along with the other person.18. （6分）阅读下面材料，从每题所给的四个选项（ABCD）中选出最佳选项。CI live in a beautiful city of Yunnan province.
