31、也会让人不那么快乐。这种状态应该和拥有快乐相关，因此选 B项 pursuit“追求”，快乐只有追求才能拥有。(2).【C2】（分数：2.00）A.benefits B.impactsC.powersD.damages解析：解析：后一句承接本句并作出解释说明：快乐能预防中风预防感冒。由此可见快乐是有好处的，因此选 A 项 benefits“好处，益处”。(3).【C3】（分数：2.00）A.persistentB.resistant C.insistentD.consistent解析：解析：此半句和前半句的快乐能预防中风预防感冒并列，因此同样是承前描述快乐的益处，可判断其有助于对抗疼痛，所以选

32、B 项 resistant“抵抗的，有抵抗力的”。(4).【C4】（分数：2.00）A.savesB.shortensC.prolongs D.spares解析：解析：此空格进一步承前说明快乐对生命的好处。C 项 prolongs“延长”代入句中指“延长寿命”，符合上下文意思。(5).【C5】（分数：2.00）A.becauseB.butC.unlessD.Although 解析：解析：前一句 Yet 开始转折，说明快乐也要有度。心理学家将快乐比作食物，必要且有益(necessary and beneficial)，但过多会导致问题(cause problems)。前后两者为让步关系，由于空格

33、位于前半部分。因此选 D 项 Although。(6).【C6】（分数：2.00）A.howeverB.likewise C.furthermoreD.thus解析：解析：本句主句的 comparesto 提示本句为类比，说明快乐和食物一样，需要适度。和过多食物多会导致问题(cause problems)一样，过度快乐也会导致不好的后果(lead to bad out-comes)，因此选择能表示类比的副词，B 项 likewise“同样地”。(7).【C7】（分数：2.00）A.predict B.proveC.displayD.illustrate解析：解析：空格后的高危行为即是快乐可能会

34、产生的消极影响，后半句的情态动词 may 也提示这是一种可能性因此本空格应填入能表示产生这些可能后果的词语，故选 A 项 predict“预示”。(8).【C8】（分数：2.00）A.neglect B.reduceC.withdrawD.reject解析：解析：本空格所在半句仍然是对快乐可以产生不良后果进行具体描述，所填单词和 threats 应能构成否定意义。威胁不被注意到时会产生不良后果，因此选 A 项 neglect“忽略，忽视”。(9).【C9】（分数：2.00）A.decisiveB.sensitiveC.negative D.affirmative解析：解析：excessive

35、joy 和 having lots of positive emotions 都是表示快乐的正面情绪，由于空格前有表示否定意义的 absence 一词，因此空格内应填入表示否定意义的词，以构成双重否定用来表示肯定意义，故选 C 项 negative“消极的”。(10).【C10】（分数：2.00）A.offerB.hamper C.crumbleD.savage解析：解析：上段用疑问句指出过度快乐还会造成别的消极影响，本句即是第一个方面，因此所需词语应带有贬义，和上文的 hurt 呼应。空格后的宾语为 career prospects，对事业前景造成消极影响应选 B 项hamper“妨碍”。(

36、11).【C11】（分数：2.00）A.discontentB.standardC.tasteD.satisfaction 解析：解析：本句用具体事例说明快乐对事业造成的消极影响。根据上文线索可推断，早期越快乐的人的事业应该越不如意，因此选 D 项 satisfaction“满足”，表明那些青年时代生活满意度最高者数年后的收入会略低。(12).【C12】（分数：2.00）A.upsetB.annoyedC.merry D.graceful解析：解析：同理，没那么快乐的人的事业可能会更成功，因此本空格应填入 happy 的同义词，和空格前的 less 构成否定，故选 C 项 merry“快乐的”

37、13).【C13】（分数：2.00）A.blamed onB.dropped out of C.were fond ofD.were accustomed to解析：解析：本句对上文所提到的早期很快乐的人进行进一步描述，继续说明快乐造成的不良影响。四个选项中能表达造成消极影响的只有 B 项 dropped out of“退出”，drop out of school 意为辍学。辍学早会对事业造成不良影响。(14).【C14】（分数：2.00）A.involving B.formingC.dividingD.managing解析：解析：本句为倒装句，真正主语在后，one 后承前省略了 stud

38、y；空格后的 a group of Ameri-can college freshmen 是句首 studies 研究的对象，空格所填入单词应能对他们作为被研究对象的身份进行描述，因此选 A 项 involving“包括”。(15).【C15】（分数：2.00）A.volunteersB.colleaguesC.peers D.members解析：解析：上文提到学者将两组快乐程度不同的年轻人(freshman)日后的收入进行对比，因此填入的词语应能体现两者年龄上的对等关系，故选 C 项 peers“同龄人”。(16).【C16】（分数：2.00）A.frequentlyB.commonlyC.

39、unbelievablyD.rarely 解析：解析：此句后半句中的 therefore 提示前半句为 feel less pressure 的原因。只有对工作满意的人才不会有压力来改变现状，因此此处选 D 项 rarely“很少”。和空格后的 dissatisfied 构成双重否定。(17).【C17】（分数：2.00）A.alternativeB.attractiveC.effectiveD.adaptive 解析：解析：由空格后的冒号可知后半句是对空格词汇的解释，根据 make us change“使我们改变”可知此处应选 D 项 adaptive“适应的，自动适配”，说明情感能改变我们

40、的行为从而做出对我们有利的事情，两者为同义表述。(18).【C18】（分数：2.00）A.survive B.maintainC.existD.succeed解析：解析：空格后一句由情感引发的 fight 和 flee 都是能帮助人类生存的能力，也是对本句空格词汇的具体体现，因此选 A 项 survive“生存”。(19).【C19】（分数：2.00）A.forB.withC.to D.on解析：解析：attentive 后有宾语时用 to 连接，是固定的搭配。(20).【C20】（分数：2.00）A.tend to B.object toC.owe toD.persist to解析：解析：句

41、中的 while 一词表示前后两半句为对比关系，说明两种人不同的特征。具有概括性和倾向性，因此选 A 项 tend to“倾向于”。Remember books? They were those pieces of paper with words printed on them【C1】_in between two, sometimes,【C2】_covers. People bought them, and people borrowed them, but,【C3】_people used to read them. And then came screens. Six years in

Now, I“m joking about the end of books, but it“s easy and tempting to【C5】_that screens will continue their【C6】_on words and paper-bound books will be at the【C7】_of vanishing. But if you take a hard look

43、at the data, it“s not the end of print. Not by a long shot. 【C8】_years, there hasn“t been a more【C9】_technology for capturing the hopes and the fears of new parents than the tablet.
