A true apology is more than just acknowledgment (承认) of a mistake. It's recognition that something you've said or 1 has damaged a relationship－and that you 2 enough about that relationship to want it 3 .
It's never 4 to acknowledge you are in the wrong. Being human, we all need the art of apology. Look back and think how 5 you've judged roughly, said 6 things, pushed yourself 7 at the expense of a friend. Some deep thought in us knows that when 8 a small mistake has been made, your 9 will stay out of balance (平衡) until the mistake is acknowledged and regret 10 .
I remember a doctor friend, 11 me about a man who came to him with 12 illnesses: headache insomnia (失眠症),stomachaches and so on. No physical 13 could be found. Finally the doctor said to the man, “ 14 you tell me what's on your conscience (良心), I can't help you.”
After a short silence the man told the doctor that he 15 all the money that his father gave to his brother, who was 16 . His father had died, so only he himself knew the matter. The old doctor made the man write to his brother making an 17 and enclosing (附寄) a 18 . In the post office, the man dropped the letter into the mail box. As the letter disappeared, the man 19 into tears. “Thank you, doctor,”he said. “I think I'm all right now. ”And he 20 .

Everything is 17 in the future, and no one can 18 what will exactly happen in years to come. But one thing is 19 : more people will come to know the Internet and will surely 20 themselves in his or her daily life.

This guy’s a winner, 40 ? Maybe, maybe not. We then discover that he bought two hundred 41 , and only one was a winner. He’s really a big 42 !

Then she 49 another term. One of her opponents runs an advertisement 50 , “During Governor Smith’s term, the state lost one million jobs!” That’s true. 51 , an honest statement would have been, “During Governor Smith’s term, the state had a net gain of 52 million jobs.”
Advertisers will sometimes use half-truths. It’s 53 the law to make false claims so they try to mislead you with the 54 . An advertisement might boast (吹嘘), “Nine out of ten doctors recommend Yucky Pills to cure nose pimples.” It 55 to mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Corporation.
This kind of cheat happens too often. It’s a sad fact of life: Lies are lies, and sometimes the truth can lie as well.
