Question

In order to improve relationship with others, you need to be aware of several sensible ways to complain.1, you need to be specific. Don’t say, “Boy, did you2like a fool at the party?” Instead, say, “You embarrassed me by getting3and loud and telling offensive jokes to my parents.” Secondly, stick to the present. Don’t mention old offences from last month or last year. By doing this, you4attention from the problem at hand. Moreover,5you complain, don’t add insults. If you start calling the other person names, that will6create anger and hurt any chance of getting the person to really7you. A last point to remember is to complain privately. Never criticize the other person in front of friends, parents, children, or anyone else, for that8. Criticizing in front of a third party has the same effect as9. This shames the person being criticized and makes it very likely that the person will want to attack you orally rather than listen to you.

本文作者論述怎樣發(fā)牢騷，在生活中我們不要直接的朝別人抱怨，要講究方法，作者給我們提出幾條建議，大家不妨試試。
1.考查語境的理解。從上下文分析知道，這里是作者提到的第一個建議，所以用To start with表示“首先”；frankly speaking坦白地說；anyway無論如何, 總之；needless to say不必說。
2.考查形動詞詞意辨析和語境的理解。從語境知道表示在宴會上的行為，表現(xiàn)。
3.。考查形容詞詞意辨析和語境的理解。從上文說道的宴會和下文的不禮貌舉止，知道是喝醉了。
4.考查動詞詞組意思辨析和語境的理解。take away 取走；set off出發(fā), 動身, 使爆炸, 引起,；draw up草擬, 停��；catch up追上, 吸住。從語境知道，當(dāng)談?wù)摤F(xiàn)在的事情時，最好不要涉及到以前的事，因?yàn)槟菢訒�分散對手頭上事情的注意力。
5.考查連詞詞意辨析和語境的理解。從上下文知道這里表示時間，即：當(dāng)抱怨時，不要侮辱人。
6.考查副詞詞意辨析和語境的理解。如果你在抱怨時，開口罵對方，將僅僅增加憤怒和失去別人聆聽你的話的機(jī)會。
7.考查動詞詞組意思辨析和語境的理解。綜合上文，這里表示“聽”。
8.考查固定搭配和語境的理解。for that matter (="for" the matter of that)關(guān)于那一點(diǎn), 就此而言, 對此, 就那件事而論。
9.考查名詞詞意辨析和語境的理解。在第三者面前批評別人等于在罵他。
10.考查語境的理解。這里是對上文建議的總結(jié)，從整體文章的大意以及上面的總結(jié)：形式要特殊；只說現(xiàn)在的事情；私下抱怨，可以推測這里是說“不要有辱罵性的語言”。
