Question

【題目】 As is known to everyone, we all care about what others think of us and want to be liked, 【1】However, there are also many smaller, simpler things you can do, which can affect how others view you.

【解析】

這是一篇說(shuō)明文。作者就如何影響別人對(duì)你的看法，提出了幾點(diǎn)合理的建議。

【1】由“As is known to everyone, we all care about what others think of us and want to be liked”眾所周知，我們都關(guān)心別人對(duì)我們的看法，希望別人喜歡我們。可知，小題1要說(shuō)明別人喜歡你的基本原則。故G選項(xiàng)切題。

【2】由“Did your co-worker talk about working with his son on a science fair project last week? Follow up and ask how it went. ”你的同事上周有沒(méi)有談到和他的兒子一起參與一個(gè)科學(xué)博覽會(huì)項(xiàng)目？跟進(jìn)并詢(xún)問(wèn)進(jìn)展如何。可知，小題2要對(duì)這樣的事情的性質(zhì)進(jìn)行總結(jié)，來(lái)說(shuō)明它是件小事。故C選項(xiàng)切題。

【3】由“For example, if someone makes an error, don’t call that person out in front of a group.”例如，如果有人犯了錯(cuò)誤，不要在一群人面前叫那個(gè)人出來(lái)�？芍�，本句在說(shuō)明明智批評(píng)人的方法，所以小題3也應(yīng)該說(shuō)明明智批評(píng)人的方法。故F選項(xiàng)切題。

【4】由“When you make someone feel better about himself or herself, that person will most certainly end up liking you for it.”當(dāng)你讓某人對(duì)自己感覺(jué)更好時(shí)，這個(gè)人最終肯定會(huì)喜歡上你�？芍�，小題4起到承接下文的作用。故B選項(xiàng)切題。

【5】由“Most people love to talk about themselves. If you are asking questions and getting people to talk about themselves, they ’ll leave the conversation thinking that you're the coolest.”大多數(shù)人喜歡談?wù)撟约�。如果你�?wèn)問(wèn)題，讓人們談?wù)撟约�，他們�?huì)認(rèn)為你是最酷的�？芍�，根據(jù)內(nèi)容以及小題5的位置，標(biāo)題為“問(wèn)問(wèn)別人他們的生活和興趣”。故D選項(xiàng)切題。
