阅读理解 Anger may feel uncomfortable, but it's also normal and healthy. It is an emotion built into us to signal that something needs to be dealt with. When we take notice of that signal and actually correct the problem instead of ignoring it, we're usually much better for it. Start by looking beyond the superficial (表面上的) trigger to your anger. Anger is often precipitated (仓促发生) by underlying feelings of fear, anxiety, disappointment and guilt. Maybe you're extremely angry that your partner is late, but it's really because you were afraid that he or she had a car accident in the bad weather. It helps to take a cool-down period before explaining to someone you're angry with how he or she rocked your boat. That will allow for the effects of the adrenaline (肾上腺素) to wear off, which in turn allows you to reflect on what's bothering you. Do some controlled breathing or find some physical activity to take the edge off. "There's clear evidence that exercise helps with feelings of anger," says McIntosh. When you're ready to approach the other person, focus on the behaviour and why it upsets you, not the person's characters. Avoid calling the other person names. Don't say something bad, and don't make generalizations (泛化), such as "You always do this!" "The idea", says Keelan, "is to bring up your reasonable points to the other person in a manner that is most likely to get a helpful and non-defensive response. " If you're on the receiving end, remember that there are benefits to acknowledging and trying to under-stand the other person's anger. Try offering to make a change, if that seems fair to you. If you're willing to be a partner in working through heated situations, the other person will be much more likely to bring matters up constructively in the future. In the end, you'll both be healthier for it. (1) What does the underlined word "trigger" in paragraph 2 mean? A . Cause. B . Solution. C . Course. D . Strategy.
