【解析】
试题分析:本文叙述了冲突和分歧是夫妻间的生活不可缺少的组成部分,一些夫妻不能在事件早期解决他们的问题,这可能会导致以后甚至会有更大的问题。要试着理解对方的观点和与对方换位思考一下。人们需要能为他们做错的事情向对方致歉,道歉能使冲突最小化,最后得到谅解。
1.考查动词及上下文的呼应。resolve解决; regret后悔; abandon 放弃; avoid避免。结合空格旁边的连词and,可知前后为并列关系,由于后面给出的是deny,故在选项中找与deny意思相近的词即可。故选D。
2.考查副词及上下文的呼应。besides此外,而且; therefore因此; moreover此外,而且; however可是。逻辑连词题,一般做法是看前后,找重复,体会变化。我们要兼顾上一句的信息,重复在于denying, conflict, couples基本上本句的开头部分是上一句的重复,但是变化也明显,本句最后讲到更大的问题,也就是把上一句基本都否定掉了,是转折关系。故本题选择However。另外本题也有一个小技巧,besides和moreover的意思和用法是完全一样的,可直接排除,降低题目难度。故选D。
3.考查动名词及上下文的呼应。trying尝试; declining下降; failing失败; striving努力。根据下文which can then lead to even greater problems later 可知处理问题失败,故选C。
4.考查名词及上下文的呼应。ages年龄; years年;at early stages在早期阶段; intervals间隔。否认冲突的存在导致了在早期阶段没有处理好他们的问题,故选C。
5.考查动词及上下文的呼应。prescribes开药方; protests抗议; proves证明;predicts预言。不奇怪的是,在最初时期,表达愤怒和分歧导致了较低的婚姻满意度。根据空格后面的宾语increases(增加,增长),和主语pattern(样式,图案),再结合本句开头的however,前面讲低,后面增长,说明了空格处应该填写一个对未来的增长的预测。故选D。
6.考查连词及上下文的呼应。so因此; while尽管; but但是; and表示前后是并列关系。所以说,在你自己的(婚姻)关系中,你要做些什么来管理冲突?试图想想其他人的观点并且可以换位思考一下,故选D。
7.考查形容词及上下文的呼应。sensitive敏感的; superior优秀的; exclusive独有的;efficient生效的。那些对他们伴侣的想法和感觉敏感的人会经历更大的(婚姻)关系的满足感。故选A。
8.考查动词及上下文的呼应。expose揭露,曝光; experience经历; explore探索;exploit开发。人们应该是讲经历了满足感。故选B。
9.考查短语及上下文的呼应。as long as只要; as far as就……而言; as well as和; as soon as一……就。前面是恋爱关系,后面是婚姻,两者相似,故选as well as表示并列,故选C。
10.考查介词及上下文的呼应。用to 表示对于冲突而言,故选A。
11.考查形容词及上下文的呼应。absolute绝对的; inevitable必然的,不可避免的; essential必要的;obvious显然的。冲突和分歧是婚姻关系中一个不可避免的组成部分,故选B。
12.考查动词及上下文的呼应。require要求; inquire询问; receive收到; achieve达到。人们需要因为做错了事而向对方道歉,并且也能得到对方的原谅,故选C。
13.考查形容词及上下文的呼应。creative创造性的; positive积极的; objective客观的;competitive比赛的。渐渐地,道歉对身体有积极的健康的益处。故选B。
14.考查名词及上下文的呼应。prospects前景; concepts概念; memories回忆; outlooks展望。当人们有受伤的回忆和怨恨时,故选C。
15.考查形容词及上下文的呼应。added增加的; toughened坚韧的; strengthened加强的; increased增强的。当人们有受伤的回忆和怨恨时,他们会产生消极的生理的影响,包括心率加快和血压升高。heart rate心率,表达心率加快应该用increased,故用D。
