问题 Choose TWO letters, A-E.
Write the correct letters in boxes 22 and 23 on your answer sheet.
Which TWO of the following beliefs are identified as mistaken in the text?
A Inherited wealth brings less happiness than earned wealth.
B Social status affects our perception of how happy we are.
C An optimistic outlook ensures success.
D Unhappiness can and should be avoided.
E Extremes of emotion are normal in the young. [br]
选项
答案 D
解析 C: Paragraph E says ’Besides, not everyone can put on a happy face. Barbara Held, a professor of psychology at Bowdoin College, rails against[= complains about]"the tyranny[= something having too much power]of the positive attitude ... it makes them feel like a failure on top of already feeling bad’"; D: Paragraph A says ’This happiness movement[= the idea that we should be happy all the time]has provoked a great deal of opposition among psychologists who observe that the preoccupation with happiness has come at the cost of sadness, an important feeling that people have tried to banish from their emotional repertoire’. Distraction A: The fact that wealth may not increase happiness is discussed in Paragraph B, but earned wealth is not compared to inherited wealth; B: This is not identified as a mistaken belief. In Paragraph B, it is discussed as a cause of unhappiness; E: Although Allan Horwitz of Rutgers laments[= says he is disappointed]that ’young people who are naturally weepy[= tearful, unhappy]after breakups[= the end of a romantic relationship]are often urged to medicate themselves’, there is no discussion of whether extreme emotions in general are normal.
