Answer 1

分析 本文就如何做你自己最好的朋友給出了三條建議和小技巧．

解答 36-40  GEFAC
36．G  考查文章的結(jié)構(gòu)和行文邏輯．該句位于文章總領(lǐng)段落（第一段），根據(jù)語境可知，該空應(yīng)填"Isn't it far better to know how to support yourself in times of need？"--該反問句實(shí)則說明上文提到的我們內(nèi)部有自我支持的體系，再個(gè)確定我們可以在需要的時(shí)候自我支持，這就引出了下句"Here's how to become your own best friend．"即該題正確答案為G．
37．E  考查文章的結(jié)構(gòu)和行文邏輯．該句在文章"Be nice to yourself"（對(duì)自己好點(diǎn)兒）部分，根據(jù)下句"開始欣賞自己"可推知，該句應(yīng)該對(duì)應(yīng)為"停止懷疑自己"，故該題正確答案為E．
38．F 考查文章的結(jié)構(gòu)和行文邏輯．該句在文章"Imagine how you would support a friend in the same situation"（想象一下你將會(huì)如何支持、幫助處于相同處境的朋友）部分，該空前句為想象你的愛人、朋友、或是家人處于你現(xiàn)在的處境．該空的后句為接著考慮如何最好地給他們提供幫助和建議．那么在這已給的兩個(gè)動(dòng)作中，只能加入的就是"Think about how they're struggling，suffering with this problem．"（想象他們的感受），故該題正確答案為F．
39．A考查文章的結(jié)構(gòu)和行文邏輯．該空為文章第三個(gè)建議部分的概括，通讀該部分，可知作者所要提出的建議為"you need to start taking your own advice and putting your own needs first．"，"Whatever it is that you need，allow yourself to put it at the top of the list rather than the bottom．"即你要尊重你自己的需要．故該題正確答案為A．
40．C考查文章的結(jié)構(gòu)和行文邏輯．該空所在部分講述的是要尊重你自己的選擇．前句講到假設(shè)的你所需要的一種情況：你需要休假一天嗎？而后句講到無論你需要的什么，你都要把這種需要放在首要的位置．故該空應(yīng)為和前句所并列的問句--你需要洗個(gè)熱水澡嗎？故該題正確答案為C．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 本文是一篇選句填空閱讀，主要考查上下文聯(lián)系能力及文章內(nèi)容理解能力，做題時(shí)，應(yīng)注意仔細(xì)閱讀文章內(nèi)容，結(jié)合上下文內(nèi)容，并理解所給選項(xiàng)含義，從而選出正確答案，切忌胡亂猜測(cè)，一定要做到有理有據(jù)．
