Controlling Anger
Becoming angry is something beyond the control of people. Becoming angry can do a lot of damages, both mental and physical. However, there are methods for discovering how to control anger and not suffer later.
● The moment you feel there are chances of you becoming angry, get away from those circumstances. In fact, there can be no better a judge than you, for discovering what it is or who it is that makes you become angry, and then at that moment choose to think about something else that can lighten your feelings.
● Keep a check on your breathing. By controlling the process of breathing, you can actually slow down your anger greatly. You can count till the number three as you breathe in, hold it for 3 seconds and again count till three while breathing out. You have to concentrate on the count as you do this and repeat for as many times as is required.
● For example, if you're experiencing road anger while driving, you can choose to tell yourself that the person who overtook you by a vehicle was in a hurry as a result of some emergency and appreciate the fact that nothing major had happened to your car. Repeat this form of self-talk to yourself every time you are in the middle of such an angry situation.
● Look for a support in other people. It needs to be clear right at the beginning as to why you are discussing your concerns with that individual. Let the other individual know what you want from the other person. After you're done with your part of discussing about the circumstances, chances are that you'll feel much better than before.
A. Talk to yourself positively.
B. Come to a stop as soon as you are angry.
C. Try to see the situation in a different light.
D. You can also ask for help from the one you rely on.
E. What you can do when you become angry is to breathe deeply.
F. In fact, almost all people at one point of time or the other become angry.
G. You can imagine going to a place you consider to be calming as well as relaxing.
【答案】F;B;E;A;D
【解析】这篇文章讲的是如何控制自己的怒火,采用总分的结构。内容结构比较清晰,基本上每段的内容都比较独立,所以只需了解每段的大意,然后对应的去选每道题的答案即可。
(1)因为此空设置在段落之首,且此段是点题之段,所以需要我们仔细揣摩。由前一句“Becoming angry is something beyond the control of people”知,生气是人们控制不住的事情。提出“becoming angry”,方便下文引出“controning anger”的主题。F句意为:事实上,大部分人有时候会变得生气。紧扣前一句“生气是人们控制不住的事情”。故选F
(2)此空设置在段落之前,由此文章的结构知,每个段落前是一句总结性的话,此句话与段落内容息息相关,且短小精悍,还是祈使句。所以要从A、B、C、里面选择。再由此段内容“The moment you feel there are chances of you becoming angry, get away from those circumstances. 当你感到你可能要生气的时候,避免这种状况,去思考一些别的能够让你开心的事情”知选B。
(3)此空也是设置在段落之中,不过不是在总结段或点题段,而是在如何控制愤怒的具体措施段落,就比较好选。先看前面的总结性话语,“Keep a check on your breathing”,不管我们会不会翻译这句话,至少我们可以看出来这句话的中心词是“breathing”,所以我们要选与之相关的,故选E
(4)此空设置在段落之首,只能从A、C中选择了。由段落内容“如果你驾驶的时候,经历了一场”路怒”,你可以安慰你自己这个人其实是因为一些紧急的事,所以才如此匆忙”“Repeat this form of self-talk to yourself every time you are in the middle of such an angry situation”每次,当你将要变得生气的时候,你都可以这样告诉自己。故选择A:用积极的想法安慰自己。
(5)此空设置在段落之中。由前面总结性的话语“Look for a support in other people:从别人那里寻求支持”知应选D。D的意思是:你也可以从你依赖的人那里寻求帮助,切合前一句话和段落大意。故选D
