2017年英语四级阅读理解题库:选词填空(8)

  Questions 47 to 56 are based on the following passage.

  Have you ever been afraid to talk back when you were treated ____47 ___? Have you ever bought something just because the salesman talked you into it? Are you afraid to ask someone for a date.

  Many people are afraid to assert(表现)themselves. Dr. Alberti thinks it's because their self-respect is low. "Our whole ____48 ___ is designed to make people distrust themselves," says Alberti. "There's always '____49 ___' around-a parent, a teacher, a boss-who 'knows better'. These superiors often gain when they chip(削弱) away at your self-image."

  But Alberti and other scientists are doing something to help people ____50 ___ themselves. They ____51 ___ "assertiveness training" courses-At for short. In the AT courses people learn that they have a right to be themselves. They learn to speak out and feel good about doing so. They learn to be more ____52 ___ without hurting other people.

  In one way. learning to speak out is to ____53 ___ fear. A group taking a course will help the timid person to lose his fear. But AT uses an even stronger ____54 ___-the need to share. The timid person speaks out in the group because he wants to tell how he feels.

  Whether or not you speak up for yourself depends on your self-image. If someone you face is more "important" than you, you may feel less of a person. You start to ____55 ___ your own good sense.

  You go by the other person's ____56___ . But, why should you? AT says you can get to feel good about yourself. And once you do, you can learn to speak out.

  [A] doubt [I] peace [B] active [J] demand [C] system [K] ask

  [D] offer [L] superior [E] unfairly [M] overcome[F] unfortunately

  [N] confidence [G] motive [O] roar [H] image

  47. E 结合句意“当别人对你________时,你是否曾经不敢反驳?”在备选项的副词中,E(不公平地)最符合文章。

  48. C 结合句意“我们整个________的目的就是让人们怀疑自己…”,再根据备选项中的名词释义,C最符合文章。且文章的下两句都是对这一system的解释。

  49. L 下文提到的These superiors即指空格所缺内容,故L正确。

  50. H 该空应填入动词原形。由上文提到的Many people are afraid to assert themselves和下文提到的"assertiveness training" courses可推知,H最符合文意。

  51. D 结合句意“他们(科学家)________‘自信训练’课程”来看选项,D最符合文意。

  52. B 上文和空格所在句都提到通过学习课程能给人们带来很多益处,由此推测该空应填入一个含积极之意的形容词,故B(活跃的)符合文章。

  53. M 结合句意“在某种程度上,学会大声说出来的目的就是________恐惧心理”可知,M(战胜)最符合句意。

  54. G 结合句意“但AT采用一个更为强大的________,即互相分享的需要”来看选项,G(动机)最符合文意。

  55. A 结合常理和上文提到的If someone you face is more"important"than you, you may feel less of a person可推知,此时人很容易怀疑自我,故A符合文意。

  56. J 该空应填入名词,结构句意“你依照别人的________行事”和下文对此的否定可推知,J最符合文意。
