50、F。2考查上下文理解和逻辑推理能力。该空前面两句提到引发愤怒的事件很多，例如：堵车，截止日期临近，身体疼痛等。下一句提到：某件事会激发一个人的怒气，但其他人却不会为此而生气的原因是由于个人的历史和心理特征。该空承上启下，应当提到某件事会使某些人生气，但不会使别人生气这个现象，故G选项（人们对这些事情的反应不一样，这就导致使一个人生气的事情可能会让另一个人生气，也可能不会让另一个人生气。）承上启下，故选G。3考查上下文理解和逻辑推理能力。上一句提到：每个人都有自己的心里不平衡的地方。那些比较好强，气量比较小的人更容易生气。下一句提到：而且，有时候，pre-anger并不一定是一种持久的状态，而是

51、一种触发事件发生前的暂时状态。该空承上启下，既要提到上一句中的那些性格特征，又要提到下一句中的pre-anger，故Having these personality traits implies the pre-anger state, where anger is in the background of your mind. （拥有这些个性特征意味着愤怒之前的状态，愤怒就在你的大脑背景中。）承上启下，故选E。4考查上下文理解和逻辑推理能力。下一句提到：有时候，甚至常规性的事件也会变成pre-anger或恼怒的来源。有时候对这些情况的无知和负面观点会产生愤怒。该空位于段首，引出下文，故A选项

52、（我们的对情况的态度和看法也会在我们内心产生愤怒。）是本段的主题句，概括全段内容，故选A。5考查上下文理解和逻辑推理能力。下一句提到：但是生气很容易转变为暴力，所以最好了解一下愤怒的原因来阻止它的存在。该句和上一句之间是转折关系，结合剩余选项可知，D选项（愤怒是一种特别强烈的感情，或许人们认为他们有理由生气。）和下文构成转折关系，故选D。点睛：七选五解题策略之一：词语复现词语复现包括原词复现和同反义词复现，及正确选项和空格前后句子有相同的词或同反义词相互呼应。抓住这些复现线索，题目自然迎刃而解。在第一小题中，空前的the main reasons和G选项中的these reasons属于原词复

53、现。第二小题空前文提到的trigger，G选项中的trigger，和空后一句中的trigger也属于原词复现。6E7G8D9A10F【解析】【分析】本文是说明文。文章首段指出我们生活中的困境：为追求成功终日奔波，欲求快乐而不得。并且说明成就不会令我们真正感到快乐的道理。进而提醒我们快乐就近在咫尺，只要我们关注生活细小之处的美。6空格前一句“Everyone wants to be happy.”表明我们每个人都期望快乐。空格后一句“After all, it is a busy life. We are all busy running after achievements.”说明终日为了追求

54、成功而奔波，似乎与追求快乐的愿望背道而驰。E项句中的however体现期望快乐与追求成功的现实矛盾，构成转折逻辑关系。故选E。7空格前两句“What is your favorite place to visit? When do you feel that you are the happiest person on the earth?”可知，你如果想要幸福，可以想两个问题：你最想去游览的地方和你是否认为自己是世界上最快乐的人。G选项句中的“that beautiful place”由指示性代词that指代的地方，正是我们脑海中向往的地方。想到这些，此时我们会自然流露出微笑。与空格后一句语

55、意连贯。故选G。8空格前一句“No matter what happens, there should be a smile on your face for most of the time.”无论经历什么，我们都应当时常面带微笑。D选项句中的it正是用来指代面带微笑这一行为动作，进而解释这种举动是表明我们当下的生活很快乐。后文继续表明微笑会给人们带来更多幸福的积极意义。故选D。9后文“Do you notice nature along with your journey to the office? Look at the flowers and trees.”向读者提问，是否在上班的路

56、上注意沿途的自然景色。即便一花一树，也足以令人怡情。说明段首句统领全段，提醒快乐其实就是我们身边，只要我们善于发现把握。故选A。10上文“You know many problems turn their way if they see the person smiling, so keep smiling.”表明，烦恼看到我们微笑，就会离去。因此，作者鼓励我们保持微笑。F选项句承接上文，表述保持微笑会对我们的生活产生积极影响，让它变得更美好。故选F。11A12F13E14C15B【解析】【分析】这是一篇议论文。作者讲述了许多哲学家都是完美主义者，他们认为生活中没有做一些绝对令人惊叹的事情，那

57、么生活就没有意义。作者认为完美主义存在一些问题，我们不必成为一个完美主义者。11根据上文“Perfectionism is one of the main reasons people tend to believe their lives are meaningless. (完美主义是人们相信他们的生命毫无意义的主要原因之一。)”可知，此处内容与人们对生活的看法有关，选项A的代词They指的是上文的people ，因此选项A“They see life as all -or-nothing. (他们认为人生要么全有，要么全无。)”符合题意。故选A。12根据下文“So the conclusi

58、on is obvious: most lives are meaningless. (所以结论很明显：大多数生命都是毫无意义的。)”可知，此处与下文形成因果关系，内容与我们大多数人都是普通人有关，选项F中的most of us与下文的most lives是同范畴词，因此选项F“However, most of us arent an Einstein or a Mother Teresa. (然而，我们大多数人都不是爱因斯坦或特蕾莎修女。)”符合题意。故选F。13根据上文“But something doesnt need to be perfect to be fantastic. (但有

59、些东西并不一定要完美才会很棒。)”可知，此处进一步补充了上文，内容与完美主义也存在有问题有关，因此选项E“And there are actually a few problems with perfectionism. (完美主义也存在一些问题。)”符合题意。故选E。14根据上文“People who are perfectionists about the meaning of life often dont apply it to other areas of their lives. (对于生命意义的完美主义者通常不会把它运用到生活的其他方面。)”可知，此处与上文形成因果关系，内容与完

60、美主义者不把对生命意义的要求运用到生活其他方面带来的后果有关，选项C中的代词This指的是上文的现象，因此选项C“This leads to lots of double standards. (这导致了许多双重标准。)”符合题意。故选C。15根据上文“And that means they can only lead to disappointment. (这意味着它们只会导致失望。)”和下文“It would be similarly odd to call one of your friends a huge failure because he cant achieve as much

61、 in a day as Superman. (把你的一个朋友称作一个巨大的失败者也会很奇怪，因为他一天之内不能取得超人那么多的成就。)”可知，此处内容与列举那些会失败的要求或者不现实的要求有关，因此选项B“We dont expect a dog to drive a car. (我们不指望狗会开车。)”符合题意。故选B。16C17A18F19G20D【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些克服气馁的方法。16根据下文“However, if properly dealt with, its part of what makes the human experience rich

62、and helps us become more strong-willed.（然而，如果处理得当，它是使人类经验丰富和帮助我们变得更坚强的一部分。）”可知，空处与之形成转折关系，说明气馁的消极作用。C项：It can make us unwilling to do something.（它能使我们不愿意做某事。）符合语境。故选C。17空处为段落主题句。根据下文“If we do something just in order to get something back, then we are setting ourselves up for discouragement. However,

63、 when we dont need someone elses praise for our actions, then we are truly free to just focus on our work and make it great.（如果我们做一些事情只是为了得到一些东西，那么我们就会让自己感到气馁。然而，当我们不需要别人对我们的行为的赞扬时，我们就真的可以专注于我们的工作并把它做好。）”可知，此处建议我们关注行为本身而不是行动后的回报。“focus on our work and make it great”和A项“Focus on our actions.（关注我们的行动）

64、”对应。故选A。18根据上文“Even if we fail in something, we should choose to think of the failure as an education.（即使我们在某些事情上失败了，我们也应该把失败看成是一种教育。）”可知，即使在某些事情上我们会失败，我们也应该把它视作受教育的机会。F项：When we view it this way, we realize failure isnt something bad.（当我们这样看待失败时，我们意识到失败并不是坏事。）符合语境。故选F。19根据段落主题句“Go outside and breat

65、he.（去户外呼吸新鲜空气。）”可知，空处与之形成解释说明关系。G项中的“Fresh air and sunshine ”与主题句呼应。G项：Fresh air and sunshine can have an amazing effect on our feelings.（新鲜的空气和阳光会对我们的感情产生惊人的影响。）符合语境。故选G。20根据上文“When we serve others, and when we go out of our way to help other people in need, we feel better.（当我们服务他人，当我们竭尽所能去帮助那些需要帮助

67、选D。21B22G23A24D25E【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，文章介绍了一种情绪管理的策略重新评估。21根据空后“But if you think about the situation differently, you would calm down”可知，B项承接上文“如果你的朋友在他的派对上忽略了你，你可能会生气或难过”，并为下文提出重新评估这种情绪管理策略作铺垫。故选B。22根据本段的研究结果可知，如果人们认为情绪是可以控制的，他们就会更加频繁地调控情绪，从而有更好的情绪健康和生活满意度，G项“现在，新的研究表明我们对情绪的看法会极大地影响我们”可作为本段的主旨句。故选G。23

68、根据下文可知，多伦多大学研究员的发现与上一段提到的研究结果一致，即对情绪的看法对我们的心理有影响。由此可知，A项It found a similar pattern.（它发现了一个相似的模式。）切题。24根据下文所写的两项研究结果可知，接受我们的情绪会影响我们的幸福感。D项“根据Ford和她的同事，它确实如此”是对前面的问题“接受我们的情绪会影响我们的幸福感吗”的肯定回答。故选D。25根据空前的“我们不应期望完全避免某些情绪，或者能够在它们出现的时候立刻摆脱它们”可知，E项“但是我们可以学会在艰难的时候减少它们”承接上句。故选E。26C27A28G29B30D【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文。

74、们的朋友和家人写感谢信表达我们的感激，而不是送礼物，认为没有比感激更重要的礼物了，你写的感谢信越多，你就更能意识到你需要感谢的人有多少。第一段提出：Thank You Notes: The Essential Life Lessons。感谢信：生命的基本课程。下文就告诉我们没有比感激更重要的礼物了，教我们怎样写感谢信。 具体技巧：根据句子的连贯性：例如第一小题，由前文“There is no greater gift for any of us to give our friends and family than the gift of gratitude. ”对于我们任何一个朋友和家人来说
