Question

【题目】根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

One of the common complaints we hear from the people around us are problems they are facing. Every day and everywhere there are problems. Many times we find it hard to stay happy. When one problem is solved, another one comes up. How to solve them? The answer is that we must equip ourselves to deal with different kinds of worries by learning the three basic steps of problem analysis. The three steps are:

Get the facts

Why is it so important to get the facts? Unless you have the facts, you can’t possibly attempt to solve your problem intelligently. Without the facts, all you can do is wondering around in confusion. It is not an easy job to get facts. When you are worried, your emotions are riding high. 【1】

When trying to get the facts, you can pretend that you are collecting this information not for yourself but for some other person. 【2】 You can also pretend that you are a lawyer preparing to agree. Try to get all the facts both on your side and the other side of the case. You will generally find the truth lies somewhere in between.

【3】

Whenever you are worried, write down the questions that make you worry. And write out all the various steps you could take and then the probable consequences of each step. For example, what am I worrying about? What can I do about it? Here is what I’m going to do about it. After carefully weighing all the facts, you can calmly come to a decision.

Act on that decision.

【4】 How can you break the worry habit before it breaks you? Crowd worry out of your mind by keeping busy. Plenty of action is one of the best ways to cure worry.

【5】 If you know a situation is beyond your power, say to yourself: “It is so; it can’t be otherwise.” Don’t permit little things to ruin your happiness. Try to cultivate a mental attitude that will bring you peace and happiness.

A. Analyze the facts.

B. Accept what can’t be avoided.

C. Decide how much anxiety a thing may be worth.

D. This will help you to take a cold and fair view of the evidence.

E. There comes a time when you must decide and never look back.

F. But here are two ideas that can help you see the facts in a clear and objective way.

G. Unless you take your action, all your fact-finding and analysis is a sheer waste of energy.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】F

【2】D

【3】A

【4】G

【5】B

【解析】

试题分析：本文讲述如何解决生活中许多问题。先要收集信息，分析，再采取行动，同时也要学会接受一些不可避免的事情。

【1】F 根据下一段讲的是了解事实的两种方法，故选F项“这有两个方法可以以清楚和客观的方式帮你看清事实”引起下文。

【2】D 根据前一句提到When trying to get the facts, you can pretend that you are collecting this information not for yourself but for some other person（当你了解这个事时，你可以假装为其他人收集信息而不是为自己）可知，这样可以帮你得到冷静和公平的证据，故选D项。

【3】A 根据第四段提到Whenever you are worried, write down the questions that make you worry. And write out all the various steps you could take and then the probable consequences of each step.（当你焦虑时，写下让你焦虑的问题，并写出所有你可能采取的各种步骤和每个步骤的可能结果）可知，这是在分析事实，故选A项。

【4】G 根据标题所提到Act on that decision（就这个决定采取行动）可知，G项“如果你不采取行动，你所有的发现与分析都是浪费”符合语境。

【5】B 根据下方提到If you know a situation is beyond your power, say to yourself: “It is so; it can’t be otherwise.（如果你知道这种状况超过你的能力，对自己说，“只能这样了”）可知，B项“接受一些不能避免的事情”符合语境。

【学法指导】

关于小标题的选择

七选五题型空格的设计主要分布在句首、句中、句尾，另一种就是小标题的空格设计。凡是作为标题的句子，一定要短小精悍，概括性强，通常用祈使句做小标题。【5】B 根据下方提到If you know a situation is beyond your power, say to yourself: “It is so; it can’t be otherwise.（如果你知道这种状况超过你的能力，对自己说，“只能这样了”）可知，B项“接受一些不能避免的事情”符合语境。
