apology. those who lack character are not up to the task. they may try to give apologies that sound genuine. they may even use fancy words, but a real apology demands character. a new study suggests that specific personality traits offer clues about whether a person is likely to offer a sincere apology.psychologist andrew howell and his colleagues at grant macewan university in edmonton devised a questionnaire to measure a persons willingness to beg someones pardon. they asked participants to indicate their level of agreement with a series of statements, such as “my continued anger often gets in the way of me apologizing.” or “if i think no one will know what i have done, i am not likely to apologize.” the researchers then used the answers to determine every participants “proclivity(倾向)to apologize,” and they cross-referenced these scores with results from a variety of personality assessments.from the beginning, howell was confident that people with high marks for compassion and agreeability would be willing apologizersand the study results confirmed his hypothesis(假设). but the experiment also turned up some surprising traits of the unrepentant(不思悔改的).people with low self-esteem, for example, are less inclined to apologize, even though they probably feel bad after a conflict. unlike people who experience guilt about a specific action and feel sorry for the person they have wronged, individuals who experience generalized shame may actually be feeling sorry for themselves.in contrast, “people who are sure of themselves have the capacity to confess to wrongdoing and address it,” howell suggests. but just the right amount of self-esteem is key. the study also found that narcissistic people who, in howells words, “are very egocentric, with an overly grand view of themselves”were reluctant to offer an apology.the researchers were most surprised to find that a strong sense of justice was negatively correlated with a willingness to apologize, perhaps suggesting that contrition(忏悔)and “an eye for an eye” philosophy are incompatible(不能并存的). reconciliation(和解)may end a conflict, but it cannot always settle a score.3.what kind of people are more likely to apologize?a.intelligent people.b.confident people.c.people valuing fairness.d.people feeling sorry for themselves.4.the underlined sentence in the last paragraph suggests .a.an end of
