Unit 17　Laughter 能力提升题组训练(A)‎ Ⅰ.阅读(2019河南六市高三一模)‎ Positive thinking is a significant element of happiness.In order to become a positive thinker,determination and consistency are important.The first thing to know about positive thinking is that everyone can do it.With certain cognitive (认知的) and behavioral changes,we can all become positive thinkers. Another important factor is that being a positive thinker does not mean you become numb to anything that is not working properly in your life or is negative—it just means that you approach life and face challenges with a healthier outlook.‎ Instead of selectively attending to negative events,focus on the positive ones.Then pay attention to the delayed consequences of your behavior rather than the immediate ones.For example,if a job is not going like you want,focus on the fact that you have a job and how you can take your time to make the situation better.‎ Challenge any internal attributions and see if you compare your behavior to standards that are excessively rigid and perfectionistic.If so,change these and be reasonable with your comparisons.For example,if you constantly compare your weaknesses with other people’s strengths,then switch this and compare yourself with those who are doing more poorly than you as well.Overall,people who focus more on their ‎ strengths than their weaknesses but at the same time are aware of their weaknesses have a healthier self-evaluation result.‎ When faced with too much fear about a situation,imagine the worst case and visualize a solution for it,then let go of fear.This way,you will be prepared for anything and your fear will not block you from being open and creative to different solutions.For example,if you are constantly worried about losing your job up to a point where it is creating a lot of anxiety and fear and is effecting your performance and your happiness negatively,then think of losing your job,visualize how you will handle it,find solutions in your mind and then let go of the thought and the fear attached to it.‎ So positive thinkers are better problem solvers and have better interactions.In addition to that,people who are positive thinkers are happier and more satisfied with their life.‎ ‎1.Why is positive thinking a significant element of happiness?‎ A.It means that one is blind to the troubles and difficulties that exist.‎ B.It means that one constantly compares everything with other people’s.‎ C.It means that one is strong in mind and has nothing to be afraid of.‎ D.It means that one approaches life and faces challenges more healthily.‎ ‎2.What does the text suggest about the job you don’t like?‎ A.Quitting it and finding a better one. B.Keeping and trying to make it better.‎ C.Being negative and numb to it. D.Challenging yourself with a new outlook.‎ ‎3.What does the author intend to tell us in Paragraph 4?‎ A.Be prepared for the worst and let go of fear. B.Being constantly worried will lose your job.‎ C.Fear will prevent you being open and creative. D.There is nothing to fear if well prepared.‎ ‎4.What can be a suitable title for the text?‎ A.How to focus on the positive events B.How to be a positive thinker C.What to do when faced with fear D.What to know of self-evaluation 语篇解读:本文为议论文。正面思考是幸福的重要组成部分。要想成为一个积极的思考者,决心和毅力必不可少。首先你要知道,每个人都能成为积极思考者。只要改善一定的认知和行为,我们都可以做到。文章论述了如何成为一个积极的思考者。‎ 答案及剖析:‎ ‎1.D　推理判断题。根据第一段中的Another important factor is that being a positive thinker does not mean you become numb to anything that is not working properly in your life or is negative—it just means that you approach life and face challenges with a healthier outlook.可推知,积极思考能让一个人更健康地对待生活和面对挑战,这也是一个人感到幸福的重要因素。故D项正确。‎ ‎2.B　细节理解题。根据第二段中的For example,if a job is not going ‎ like you want,focus on the fact that you have a job and how you can take your time to make the situation better.可知,当你有一份不喜欢的工作的时候,你应该坚持并努力让它变得更好。故B项正确。‎ ‎3.A　段落大意题。第四段中的When faced with too much fear about a situation,imagine the worst case and visualize a solution for it,then let go of fear.(当面对太多的恐惧时,想象最坏的情况,想象一个解决方案,然后放下恐惧)是主题句,也是本段论述的主题。故A项正确。‎ ‎4.B　标题归纳题。根据全文可知,文章主要论述了如何成为一个积极的思考者。因此,B项“如何成为一个积极的思考者”正确。‎ Ⅱ.七选五(2019河北石家庄高三一模)‎ Three in five people in the UK hold a

that listening to music at work increases accuracy and speed,The Telegraph reported.Perhaps,some parents disagree with this idea,saying,“Switch off the music and concentrate!” Well,if that’s the case with your parents,you might now be able to convince them that you have science on your side.‎ The company gave 26 participants a series of different tasks for five days in a row,including spell checking,mathematical word problems,data ‎ entry,and abstract reasoning.The participants completed these tasks while listening to music or no music at all.‎ The results showed that while music was playing,88% of the participants produced their most accurate test results and 81% completed their fastest work.David Lewis,chairman of Mindlab International,told The Telegraph,“Music is a very powerful management tool if you want to increase not only the efficiency of your workforce but also their emotional state... they are going to become more positive about the work.”‎ However,you may have a list of your favorite songs,but not all kinds of music match all homework.For maths or other subjects involving numbers or attention to detail,you should listen to classical music,the study found.In the study,pop music enabled participants to complete their tasks 58% faster than when listening to no music at all.If you are reviewing your English writing,pop music is the best choice,as it is the best kind for spell checking.It cut mistakes by 14%,compared to listening to no music.After finishing your homework,do you often take time to check your answers?Maybe,some dance music is
