    How do apology languages work? Have you ever tried to apologize, only to be refused? It may be that you were offering a partial apology in a “language”, that was foreign to your listener．The five languages of apology include:

           Apology Language 1: “I am sorry.”

    List the hurtful effects of your action．Not “I am sorry if …”, but “I am sorry that…”．You might ask if they want to add any points that you have not recognized.

    Apology Language 2:“I was wrong.”

         Name your mistake and accept fault．Note that it is easier to say “You are right” than “ I am wrong”, but the latter carries more weight.

    Apology Language 3: “What can I do to make it right?”

         How are you now? How shall I make amends（弥补） to you? How can I restore your confidence that I love you— even though I was so hurtful to you?

    Apology Language 4: “I’ll try not to do that again.”

         Engage in problem-solving．Don’t make excuses for yourself such as, “Well, my day was just so…” Instead, offer what you will change to prevent yourself from putting them in the same bad situation again．

    Apology Language 5: “Will you please forgive me?”

         Be patient in seeking forgiveness．They may need some time or greater clarification of your input from Apology Languages 1-4.

         Finally, your apology may not be accepted, but at least you know that you have been faithful in offering a sincere olive branch of peace.

    1．The passage mainly talks about___________

         A．5 tips for apologies that work             B．5 ways of refusing apologies

         C．the function of apology languages       D．the importance of apology languages

         A．your listeners can’t understand your dialect.

         B．your listeners can’t hear what you said clearly.

         C．your apology is not sincere.

         D．your apology is not expressed well enough.

    3．When offering an apology, which of the following does the author prefer?

         A．“You are right”                               B．“I am sorry if …”

      C．“I was wrong.”                      D．“Well, my day was just so…”

    4．In the last paragraph, the author tells us even if your apology may not be accepted, at least ____.

         I am not really much of a diet fan, my weight has never been an issue. I eat whatever I want, when I
    want. But as Pamela McDonald explains diet is not merely a method for controlling weight, but has a
    significant influence on health and quality of life.
         I can hardly imagine that living on fried bacon would be a good way to lose weight and promote good
    overall health. Likewise a steady diet of cabbage soup would likely become somewhat monotonous(单调乏味的) after a couple of days.
         Pamela McDonald takes a different approach, there is no one-size-fits-all diet, different people need
    different things. Although all humans are intrinsically(本质地) composed of the same material, the building blocks, our genes, are subtlety different.
         The author maintains that one particular part of a person's DNA, something called the APO E gene,
    has much to do with how our body tolerates foods of different types. This gene comes in 8 varieties and
    depending on the variety the food requirements are different. This has little to do with weight loss, and has more to do with overall good health. Weight gain is not a 'problem' but rather a symptom. A diet alone
    will not resolve the entire problem, it is merely one part of the larger picture.
         I have to admit that parts of The APO E Gene Diet were a little heavy going, I appreciate that the
    author felt the requirement to back up her claims with some scientific data, but for the lay(外行的) man
    it makes for some rather difficult reading.
         The second half of the book, is recipes, now this is something I do understand! She has created some
    very innovative dishes, and certainly more than one that had me feeling hungry just reading them. My
    favorite of them is a very traditional English dish the Cornish Pasty.
         An interesting book and one that people should read, you can get your copy from Amazon. 
    1. What's the writing purpose of the passage?
    A.To help readers realize the importance of diets.
    B.To share her reviews of a book about diets.
    C.To advertise for the Amazon online bookstore.
    D.To introduce a new way of losing weight.
    2. What can we learn from Pamela McDonald's book?
    A. Different people need different foods to keep fit.
    B. Humans are completely made up of the same genes.
    C. Different APO E gene decides if you are healthy.
    D. Diets alone can successfully help fat people lose weight.
    3. What's the shortage of Pamela McDonald's book?
    A. It advises people to eat some repeated diets every day to keep slim.
    B. It supports its arguments with convincing scientific explanation.
    C. Parts of it are difficult for common readers to understand well.
    D. It is a heavy book that is too long for many readers to finish.
    4. What CANNOT we infer from the passage?
    A. What food we need is decided by the environment we're brought up.
    B. Gaining weight indicates there may be something wrong with your health.
    C. The writer is deeply attracted by the dishes introduced in the book.
