Since we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal relationships. One strength of the human condition is our possibility to give and receive support from one another under stressful conditions. Social support makes up of the exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties. Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to deal with major life changes and daily problems. People with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties. Studies over types of illnesses, from depression to heart disease, show that the presence of social support helps people defend themselves against illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health more likely.
59. Interpersonal relationships are important because they can ________
C. deal with life changes D. cure types of illnesses
A. lies in the social medical care systems which support them
C. depends on their ability to deal with daily worries and troubles
61. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word cushions?
C. lessens the effect of D. gets rid of
A. instrumental support B. informational support
63. What is the subject discussed in the text?
C. Ways to deal with stress. D. Effects of stressful condition
参考答案:59.A 60.B 61.C 62.C 63.A
首先,大家要知道researches和studies都是研究的意思,在第一段的最后一句话中Studies over types of illnesses, from depression to heart disease, show that the presence of social support helps people defend themselves against illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health more likely.可以判断答案选择B。A和C选项在文中没有提及,而D选项只提到了life changes,内容太片面。
Cushion的动词意思是1. 使免遭损害;使免受令人不快的影响2. 使柔和,使松软3. 起缓冲作用;缓和冲击在ABCD四个选项中,A 代替B构成组成C减少影响,免受影响D摆脱,除掉,去掉。经比较得出答案选择C。
这道题的主要目的是考文章讨论得焦点内容。我们从第一段开头就能判断出文章中要谈论的内容Since we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal relationships.所以答案选择A。像这样问题的答案一般作者都会在文章的开头给出来。
