for managing conflict in a healthy and constructive way. some couples just 36 and deny the presence of any conflict in a relationship. 37 , denying the existence of conflict results in couples 38 to solve their problems at early 39 ,which can then lead to even greater problems later 40 .not surprisingly, expressing anger and disagreement leads to lower marital (婚姻的)satisfaction at the beginning. however, this pattern of behavior 41 increases in marital satisfaction over time. research suggests that working 42 conflicts is an important predictor of marital satisfaction.so, what can you do to manage conflict in your own relationships? first, try to understand the other persons point of view 43 put yourself in his or her place. people who are 44 to what their partner thinks and feels 45 greater relationship satisfaction. for example, researchers found that among people in dating relationships 46 marriages, those who can adopt their partners perspective show more positive 47 ,more relationship-enhancing attributes and more constructive responses 48 conflict.second, because conflict and disagreements are an 49 part of close relationships. people need to be able to apologize to their partner for wrongdoing and 50 forgiveness from their parents for their own acts. apologies minimize conflict, lead to forgiveness, and serve to restore relationship closeness. in line 51 this view, spouses who are more forgiving show higher mental 52 over time. increasingly, apologizing can even have 53 health benefits. for example, when people reflect on hurtful 54 and grudges(怨恨)，they show negative physiological(生理的) effects, including 55 heart rate and blood pressure, compared to when they reflect on sympathetic perspective-taking and forgiving.36.a)resolve b)regret c)abandon
