22、l new studies, however, say that it could have a lot of health benefits. When you think of forgiveness, you probably dont think of it as being a health or medical problem. Studies from Stanford University, on the other hand, show that something like anger can change your well-being.When cartoon book
23、 characters like the Incredible Hulk(绿巨人) get angry, they change colors and often gain special power. In the real world, anger is less obvious and may be more dangerous. Thats why Professor Fred Luskin, founder of the Stanford Forgiveness Project and author of Forgive for Good, says holding on to an
24、ger and hatred can harm your physical and mental health. Two new studies seem to show the same idea.The studies find that people who are able to forgive feel less stress, less back pain, and less depression.

25、doesnt matter if your anger is caused by the traffic or other things. Learning to let it go is important. Techniques such as deep breath or thought can help.

29、Forgiveness Is Good for HealthC. A Secret to Keeping Health D. Anger Is Bad for HealthCWe parents often take material things for love. “I give him everything,” a disappointed mother plains. “New shoes, video-games, and his own TV. Youd think hed at least show me respect!”Of course, love and presents
30、 are related. Most parents work hard to earn money. They want their children to have more than they did and have better lives. The problem is, most children dont connect the things parents buy with the labor that pays for them. Children have more, but our cultureand television in particularteaches t
31、hem that more is never enough. Having more does not mean that a child feels loved.From a parents point of view, children are not thankful. But this has to do with their natural growth.
