Our culture is concerned with matters of self-esteem. Self-respect, on the other hand, may hold the key to achieving the peach of mind we seek. (32)The two concepts seem very similar but the differences between them are crucial.
(29)To esteem anything is to evaluate it positively and hold it high regard, but evaluation gets us into trouble because while we sometimes win, we also sometimes lose. To respect something, on the other hand, is to accept it.
The word acceptance suggests to some readers that our culture does indeed deal with this idea of self-respect; after all, don’t we have the concept that it is important to accept our limitations? Aren’t many of us encouraged "to change the things we can change, accept the things we cannot change and know the difference between the two?"
(30)The person with self-respect simply likes herself or himself. This self-respect is not dependent on success because there are always failures to contend with, Neither is it a result of comparing ourselves with others because there is always someone better. There are techniques usually employed to increase self-esteem. (31)Self-respect, however, is a given. We simply like ourselves because of who we are and not because of what we can or cannot do.
My recent research, with Judith White and Johnny Walsh at Harvard University, points to the advantage of selfrespect. (32)Compared to those with high self-esteem who are still caught in an evaluative framework, those with self-respect are less prone to blame, guilt, regret, lies, have secrets and stress.
选项
A、It is part of the nature we were born with.
B、Self-respect is a gift given by others.
C、There is no way to increase self-respect.
D、It depends on what we can or cannot do.
答案
A
解析
语义理解题 。文章说“自尊是一种给予。拥有self-respect意味着我们喜欢(并接受)自己现在的样子,而不是因为我们有没有什么样的能力。”由此可知,self-respect是存在于我们的本性当中。而不像self-esteem一样有些外面的方法可以将其改变,故A 项与原文语义相符。
