Empathy, the Key to Being Kind

In science class, your teacher tells everyone to find a partner for a project. Out of the comer of your eye, you notice one girl sitting alone and not making eye contact with anyone. You think about asking her to be your partner, but you're afraid people will think you're uncool. You don't reach out. 【1】

Empathy is being able to understand and actually feel what someone else is feeling. For some people, this comes naturally; for others, it takes a bit more work. 【2】 When you practice being empathetic, it gets easier to make kindness a part of your everyday life. If you can understand why people are feeling down, you'll want to help them. Here are some ideas that can help you.

【3】 Someone not being able to find a group in class might not seem like a big deal—but part of being kind is noticing when someone seems sad, hurt or uncomfortable. After all, you have to notice how people feel in order to feel empathy and want to help them!

When you're trying to make kindness second nature, really getting other people's feelings is important 【4】 Think about a time when you felt that way. Didn't you wish someone would reach out to you? If someone had offered you a few words of comfort, wouldn't it have made you feel so much happier?

So, when you find people around you who are feeling down next time, do not hesitate to put yourself in their shoes and reach out to them with a kind gesture. 【5】 There is always a time when you expect others to relate to you and feel what you feel.

A. And your kindness will be finally rewarded.

B. But empathy is super important to being kind.

C. Be open to learning more about what you don't understand.

E. However, you never know showing empathy may make all the difference to her.

【解析】本文介紹與人為善的要訣：換位思考。與人為善不僅讓世界更美好，也會讓自己更美好，它關(guān)乎自我形象，給自己帶來美妙的感覺！當(dāng)你察覺有人需要幫助、需要溫暖的時候，就設(shè)身處地?fù)Q位思考一下。更美妙的是，你完全可以做得到——就看你愿不愿意這么做!

【1】Ｅ

根據(jù)上文：你想和一個孤獨地坐著，低著頭不敢看人的女生做搭檔，但又怕別人說你不夠酷，你沒有提供援助。可知下文的意思應(yīng)該是：或許你自己也不太相信這樣做能起多大作用。此處表示一種轉(zhuǎn)折，故選Ｅ。

【2】Ｂ

根據(jù)上文：換位思考，顧名思義就是能夠站在他人的角度去理解和感受他的所思所想。有些人與生俱來就懂得與人為善，有些人則需要下點功夫才能做到這一點。根據(jù)空格下文：一旦你身體力行，學(xué)會換位思考，就很容易養(yǎng)成與人為善的日常習(xí)慣�？芍�換位思考對于與人為善來說是超級重要的一環(huán)。故選Ｂ。

【3】Ｄ

此空是段落首句。根據(jù)下文：在課堂上有些同學(xué)找不到小組搭檔，貌似沒什么大不了——但與人為善必不可少地要關(guān)注到他人的憂傷、痛苦或者難過。畢竟，只有關(guān)注到別人的感受，你才會感同身受，才會產(chǎn)生幫助他們的愿望。可知此空的意思是：練習(xí)換位思考的第一步就是要學(xué)會關(guān)注身邊的人。故選D。

【4】Ｇ

根據(jù)上句：如果你真正把與人為善視作第二天性，首要任務(wù)就是去真切理解他人的感受。再根據(jù)空格下文：設(shè)想一下自己心情不好的時候，難道不希望有人對你伸出援手嗎？可知此空要表達(dá)的意思是：下次當(dāng)你感覺某人孤單或不快樂的時候，設(shè)身處地去體會他的感受。故選G。

【5】Ａ

根據(jù)下句：總有一段時間，你希望別人與你聯(lián)系，感受到你的感受。可知此空的意思是：你的善良最終會得到回報。故選A。
