分析 文章大意:本文主要关于如何应对社交焦虑症的话题.科学家发现忙于行善可以帮助人们更加容易地和陌生人相处.
解答 36.A 属于辑推理题.根据第三段下一句:"people who suffer from social anxiety miss out on the support gained from having relationships with others and typically have fewer friends."人们会遭受交际困扰,从而错过很多可以通过人际交往尤其是与朋友的交往中获得的支持,可知前面一句应为选项A.通过逃避社交场所是正确的,所以选择A选项.
37.C 事实细节题.根据第五段:" 37 .One group performed good deeds,such as voluntarily washing up friends'dishes or donating to charity. 38 ,while the third group carried on with life as normal."one group…the third group…可知下面介绍的是几个分组,所以选项C,他们被随机分为三个组是正确的,所以选择C选项.
38.E 事实细节题.根据第五段:" 37 .One group performed good deeds,such as voluntarily washing up friends'dishes or donating to charity. 38 ,while the third group carried on with life as normal."one group…the third group…可知下面介绍的是几个分组,因为已经有第一、第三组了,而且第一组用的是one…对应下一组是the other,one…The other…一个,另一个是固定用法,所以选项E是正确的,所以选择E选项.
39.G 逻辑推理题.根据第六段:"____39______.And the new study showed that participants in the group who actively led a helping hand also experienced a reduction in their desire to avoid social situations."下一句说的是参与实验的人员还能减少躲避社交场所的欲望,所以是一个进一步说明,前面空缺处应该也是表示帮助别人给受试者带来的好处,可知选项G是符合题意的,所以选择G选项.
40.F 逻辑推理题.根据第六段和第八段,可知作者是要进一步说明good deeds做好事对减少社交焦虑的好处,可知选项F是符合题意的,所以选择F选项.

"No,I'm not."I(41)C.

"Well,at least I'm here (42)A you!"

I was (48)A of myself on being available to my children.After all,I am a speaker on child behavior and parenting.But Laure's observation (49)C my heart.In her eyes,I must have been a mom who was (50)Bbut unapproachable.I wouldn't make such an image(形象)before her.My relationship with my children is more (51)Athan any other work.
"Laure,"I called."come here a minute."
She wandered to my doorway.I had decided to have her (52)Dme when I was too devoted to work.I wanted her to have the (53)C to let me know when she thought I was cold.
After I explained my(54)C and the fact that I chose home office to be accessible to her and her sister,I offered Laure the following (55)A.
"Whenever you feel I'm ignoring you or you need my (56)B,I want you to (57)A me,I said,"just come up and give me a little hug,that'11be our signal that you (58)C me."
Years later we still have that (59)D sign.I've become much more sensitive to my daughters'comings and goings.(60)A she always gives me a little hug to remind me of the real reason I work at home.
