A Few Tips for Self-Acceptance
We all want it to accept and love ourselves. But at times it seems too difficult and too far out of reach. 36 Here’s a handful of ways that will set you in the right direction.
● 37 Do not follow the people who make you feel not-good-enough. Why do you follow them? Are you hoping that eventually you will feel empowered because your life is better than theirs? Know that your life is your own; you are the only you in this world.
●Forgive yourself for mistakes that you have made. We are often ashamed of our shortcomings, our mistakes and our failures. 38 You will make mistakes, time and time again. Rather than getting caught up in how you could have done better, why not offer yourself a compassionate (有同情心) response? “That didn’t go as planned. But, I tried my best.”
●Recognize all of your strengths. Write them down in a journal. Begin to train your brain to look at strength before weakness. List all of your accomplishments and achievements. You have a job, earned your degree, and you got out of bed today. 39
●Now that you’ve listed your strengths, list your imperfections. Turn the page in your journal. Put into words why you feel unworthy, why you don’t feel good enough. Now, read these words back to yourself. 40 Turn to a page in your journal to your list of strengths and achievements. See how awesome you are?
A. Feeling upset again?
B. Where do you start?
C. Nothing is too small to celebrate.
D. Remember, you are only human.
E Set an intention for self-acceptance.
F. Stop comparing yourself with others.
G. When does the comparison game start?
答案解析：
36. B. 这一段是文章的开头，提出我们所有人都想要接受和爱自己，但是有时候这似乎太难了。接下来的句子需要提供一个方向或者起点，选项B "Where do you start?"恰好符合这个语境，为读者指明了接下来的内容将提供一些方法。
37. F. 根据下一句"Do not follow the people who make you feel not-good-enough."，这里是在建议读者不要跟随那些让你觉得自己不够好的人，这与选项F "Stop comparing yourself with others."的意思相吻合，都是建议不要与他人比较。
38. D. 这一段是在讲述原谅自己的错误，并提醒自己会一次又一次地犯错。选项D "Remember, you are only human."是在提醒读者，作为人类，犯错是正常的，这与上下文的主题相符。
39. C. 这一段是在讲述认识到自己的所有优点，并写下自己的成就。选项C "Nothing is too small to celebrate."是在鼓励读者即使是小的成就也值得庆祝，这与上文列举成就的建议相呼应。
40. A. 这一段是在建议读者列出自己的不完美之处，并读给自己听。选项A "Feeling upset again?"似乎是在询问读者在读完这些负面词汇后是否又感到沮丧，这与接下来的建议转向看自己的优点和成就相衔接。
