Question

【題目】根據短文內容,從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。

There is one type of illness in the world that affects more people than anything else and is very deadly. What is this illness? It is depression. Serious depression requires professional treatment. 【1】 Everyone’s circumstances are different, but the causes of self-induced (自我誘導)depression are common: low self-esteem, hurtful thinking and a bad attitude.【2】

1. Examine ourselves and set a goal.

First we must look at ourselves, truly and honestly examining our motives for what we wish to achieve. If you are dissatisfied because you feel you haven’t or can’t do anything, then one step is needed—to set goals.

【3】Think of them as sand; one grain may be insignificant but as a group they form the beach. Once you have set and attained small goals for yourself, move on to slightly larger, more challen ging goals.

2.【4】

There are a number of factors that can make us think negatively and one of those is diet. In my opinion, a person who eats a lot of take-out and fast food is feeding their body junk. Start by eating better foods which give the body much NEEDED minerals. If your physical body is happy, it’s much easier for your mental body or “thinking ability” to be happy.

3. Think about good things and smile

Think about good memories you had, or generally think of things that make you smile.

【5】A smile can be the difference between an average day and a great day.

If you follow these steps, positive change is inevitable.

A. Go on a diet and keep a good figure.

B. Remember, everything you wear costs money but to wear a smile is free.

C. However, self-induced depression is something each of us can change.

D. Feed ourselves well and be physically health.

E. Always start your goals relatively small and easy to attain.

F. Good memories help you keep a good state of mind.

G. So how can we change the way we think, feel, and cultivate a cheerful attitude?

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】C

【2】G

【3】E

【4】D

【5】B

【解析】

【1】C考查上下文邏輯推理及語境理解。該段講述了兩種抑郁類型嚴重的抑郁和自我誘導抑郁。嚴重的抑郁需要專業(yè)治療，而自我誘導抑郁卻是我們每個人都可以改變的。

【2】G考查上下文邏輯推理及語境理解。根據后文的3個小標題可以看出下文要講述如何改變自我誘導抑郁，故而這里要用一個總結行的問句引出下文。故先A。

【3】E考查上下文邏輯推理及語境理解。文中舉了沙子的例子—一粒沙子不重要但許多沙子卻能積成沙灘，可以看出一開始我們的目標要相對較小并容易達到。

【4】D考查上下文邏輯推理及語境理解。根據該段提出的“Start by eating better foods which give the body much NEEDED minerals.”和“If your physical body is happy, it’s much easier for your mental body or “thinking ability” to be happy.”可知是建議我們要吃好，并保持身體健康。此處的 eating better food和 physical body是提示。

【5】B考查上下文邏輯推理及語境理解。根據該部分標題“Think about good things and smile”可知，此段是勸慰多微笑。該段的關鍵詞smile是提示。
