Question

【題目】 Your colleague’s sharp comment keeps replaying in your mind.Two of your students are trapped in a”he said/she said”battle.When you reflect on your emotional reactions,you sometimes get caught up in cycles of negative feelings,which can make you feel even worse.If so,the answer may lie in a skill called”self-distancing”,the ability to take a step back and view yourself more objectively.According to a research,when people adopt self-distancing while discussing a difficult event,they make better sense of their reactions,experience less emotional suffering,and display fewer signs of stress.

But what might self-distancing look like in action? Consider a typical”he said/she said”student conflict where they are each focusing on their own feelings.One is thinking,‘‘I can't believe he did that to me”And another insists.”She really hurt my feelings”However,if you ask them to take the self-distancing,they might step outside of themselves and ask broader questions:”Why was he so hurt in this situation?”or”How did her anger affect him?”

Although this approach may sound too simple to be effective,studies indicate that a change in point of view can have a powerful effect on the way people think,feel,and behave. Here are several different techniques you can try.

First,consider how a thoughtful friend might respond after quietly observing their situation.Besides,avoid using the pronoun”I”.Focus on using third-person pronouns,he,she,they,and they were able to see the stressful event as challenging rather than threatening.Finally,ask yourself,”How would I feel about this one week from now or ten years from now?”This form of mental time travel may be effective because our attention is directed away from our immediate,concrete circumstances.

【解析】

這是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了應(yīng)對(duì)自己的消極情緒時(shí)的一種技巧。當(dāng)我們陷入消極情緒的循環(huán)中，會(huì)讓我們感覺更糟。如果采用“自我疏遠(yuǎn)”的技巧，我們會(huì)更好地理解自己的反應(yīng)，經(jīng)歷更少的情感痛苦，表現(xiàn)出更少的壓力跡象。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段的If so,the answer may lie in a skill called”self-distancing”,the ability to take a step back and view yourself more objectively.可知，自我疏遠(yuǎn)指的是后退一步，更客觀地看待自己的能力。故選D。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段的Besides, avoid using the pronoun”I”.Focus on using third-person pronouns,he,she,they,and they were able to see the stressful event as challenging rather than threatening. 此外，避免使用代詞“我”。注意使用第三人稱代詞，他，她，他們，他們能夠把壓力事件視為挑戰(zhàn)而不是威脅。可知，選項(xiàng)A,C,D均使用了第一人稱，而B“這兩個(gè)人是怎么走到這一步的?”使用的是第二人稱。故選B。

【3】主旨大意題。文章主要介紹了應(yīng)對(duì)自己的消極情緒時(shí)的一種技巧。當(dāng)我們陷入消極情緒的循環(huán)中，會(huì)讓我們感覺更糟。如果采用“自我疏遠(yuǎn)”的技巧，我們會(huì)更好地理解自己的反應(yīng)，經(jīng)歷更少的情感痛苦，表現(xiàn)出更少的壓力跡象。因此，本文的最佳標(biāo)題為“打破消極反思的循環(huán)”。故選C。

文章細(xì)節(jié)的理解的是非辨別題型，是一類綜合事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題,出題形式常常是“三正一誤”(三項(xiàng)正確,只有一項(xiàng)不符合原文內(nèi)容)或“三誤一正”(三項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤,只有一項(xiàng)符合原文內(nèi)容)。需要考生根據(jù)文章中的具體信息去核對(duì)并進(jìn)行排除。本文的第2小題屬于該類型的細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段的Besides, avoid using the pronoun”I”.Focus on using third-person pronouns,he,she,they,and they were able to see the stressful event as challenging rather than threatening. 此外，避免使用代詞“我”。注意使用第三人稱代詞，他，她，他們，他們能夠把壓力事件視為挑戰(zhàn)而不是威脅。可知，選項(xiàng)A,C,D均使用了第一人稱，而B“這兩個(gè)人是怎么走到這一步的?”使用的是第二人稱。
