Five secrets to living a sunshine life

Don’t avoid or ignore negativity.

In order to conquer and overcome the negativity, it must be acknowledged. You are in control of your environment and if these negative situations keep making an appearance, it’s up to you to handle them.

Take care of yourself and your needs.

In order to live a powerful and meaningful life, you must love yourself. 1 And this will be reflected in your thoughts and emotional state of mind. Love yourself fully in order to love others fully.

2

Determine what is worth your time and effort and what is not. If situations are bad and beyond repair, it’s time to let go. Are there relationships or friendships that remain damaged but you know are worth the time? 3 Do what you can to find love in situations where it may have been absent in the past.

Give.

Give our time, energy, love and sometimes money to others. 4 So if you can, don’t hesitate to do it.

Focus on things that make us smile, laugh and feel good.

This one is pretty simple. 5 That is, do more of what makes you happy! I truly believe happiness may not come as easily as we wish. In order to go through work and boring responsibilities, we have to actively pursue and engage in beautiful acts of love and kindness. So let’s have a try.

A. Just do MORE of it.

B. Fix them and find peace.

C. Always put yourself first.

D. Mend what’s broken or get rid of it.

E. Determine what is important to you.

F. Mind your actions and how you live each day.

G. Everything we put out into the world comes back to us.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】F

【2】D

【3】B

【4】G

【5】A

【解析】

【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文。文章简要地介绍了五个享受阳光生活的秘诀。

【1】根据本段的小标题＂Take care of yourself and your needs＂及空处上下文的内容可知，此处主要讲的是要关注自己及自己的需求。故F项符合语境。考生易误选C项。本段主要讲的是要关注自己的需求，并非是在说要时刻把自身放在首位，C项是对文章原意的一种曲解，故可排除。

【2】根据下文的内容，尤其是＂Determine what is worth your time and effort and what is not...worth the time＂可知，本段主要讲的是要修补＂破裂的＂东西或者摆脱它。故D项符合语境。考生易误选E项。本段第一句提及要决定什么东西值得你花费时间和精力，什么东西不值得，下文提到如果情况变糟且无法补救，就随它而去，显然，此处主要讲的是取舍问题，并不是在讲要决定什么对自己重要，故E项可排除。

【3】此处与上文的＂If situations are bad and beyond repair， it’s time to let go＂形成对比，上文说的是放手，这里说的是修复。选项中的＂them＂呼应上句中的＂relationships or friendships＂。所以答案为B。

【4】根据本段的小标题可知，本段主要讲的是付出，且由空后的＂So＂可知，空处是付出的原因，故G项符合语境。

【5】根据空前的＂This one is pretty simple＂和空后的＂That is， do more of what makes you happy!＂可知，A项＂就是多做＂符合语境。
