Moods and Emotions

Modern medicine offers an abundance of tranquilizers(镇静剂), antidepressants and anti-anxiety drugs. 【5】many people don't realize, however, is that scientists have discovered the effectiveness of several non-drug approaches to make you loose from an unwanted mood.

本文是一篇说明文。主要内容是当你有负面情绪时,且没有人倾听时,科学家们发现了几种非药物的治疗坏情绪的方法。
【1】考查非谓语动词。句意:专家们说,情绪是一种倾向于变得固定的情绪,它会影响一个人几个小时、几天甚至几周的看法。分析句子结构可知,空处填非谓语动词,再根据句意可知,influence和其逻辑主语emotions是主动关系,故用动词ing形式做定语,故填influencing。
【2】考查状语从句。句意:如果你的情绪是愉快的,这很好,这可能会激励你,但如果你是悲伤的,焦虑的,生气的或只是孤独的,这是一个问题。分析句子结构可知,空处填从属连词,再根据句意可知,空处用if引导条件状语从句,意为“如果”,与题意相符,故填if。
【3】考查并列连词。句意:如果你的情绪是愉快的,这很好,这可能会激励你,但如果你是悲伤的,焦虑的,生气的或只是孤独的,这是一个问题。分析句子结构可知,空处填并列连词,空前后是形容词的并列,再根据句意可知,空前后表示选择关系,or意为“或者”,与题意相符,故填or。
【4】考查非谓语动词。句意:也许应对这种情绪的最好办法就是把它们说出来;但有时,当你需要听众时,却没有人倾听。分析句子结构可知,空处填非谓语动词,再根据句意可知,listen和逻辑主语no one是主动关系,且listen发生在位于动词is之后,表示将来,故此处用to do不定式表示即将发生的动作,故填to listen。
【5】考查名词性从句。句意:然而,许多人没有意识到的是,科学家们已经发现了几种非药物疗法的有效性,可以让你摆脱不想要的情绪。分析句子结构可知,空处填连接代词引导名词性从句,又因在从句中做realize的宾语,故用what意为“……的东西;……的事”,故填what。
【6】考查非谓语动词。句意:这些药和药物一样有用,而且还有无毒的好处,所以下次你感觉不舒服的时候,不要去药店,试试下面的方法。根据句意可知,not…but…是固定句型,意为“不是……而是……”,连接两个并列成分,not后是动词原形,故but后动词也用动词原形,故填try。
【7】考查形容词最高级。句意:在所有改变情绪的自助技巧中,有氧运动似乎是治疗坏情绪最有效的方法。根据句意可知,of all the mood限定选择范围,由此可知,空处填形容词最高级,故填the most efficient。
【8】考查情态动词。句意:如果你能坚持锻炼,你就会精神饱满。分析句子结构可知,空处填情态动词,再根据主句部分的would be判断可知,此句与现在/将来事实相反,从句部分的时态用could/would/should/would+动词原形,再根据句意可知,此处用could表示“能够”,与题意相符,故填could。
【9】考查介词。句意:研究人员已经解释了生化和其他各种变化,这些变化使得运动比药物更能提升情绪。分析句子结构可知,空处填介词,再根据句意可知,as意为“作为”,在句中将此处的名词mood-raiser译为动词,故填as。
【10】考查定语从句。句意:关键是有氧运动——跑步、骑自行车、散步、游泳或其他重复性、持续性的活动,这些活动可以提高心率、促进循环、提高身体对氧气的利用。分析句子结构可知,空处填关系代词引导定语从句且在从句中作主语,故用which来指代前文列举的“活动”,故填which。
