37、卷)43A.message BmottoCsayingDsuggestion解析 考查名词辨析及文章理解。引号里是一句鼓励的话,根据前文可知这句话是她的座右铭。迷惑性较大的C选项saying意为“谚语”,往往是人们长期形成的对生活经验的总结,强调群体性及时间性;message“信息”;suggestion“建议”,均不符合题意。答案 B【方法指导】1理解文章大意,充分利用上下文语境解答完形填空题时,考生首先应该把握文章大意,在理解文章大意的基础上综合考虑、辨析所提供的选项。避免做完题后才猛然发现所选的选项与文章的大意相冲突或矛盾。2先理解文章大意,再综合考虑在理解文章大意的基础上进行综合考虑是解答完形填空题的关键。本段前面提到作者看到the guard向陌生人挥手时,对方也挥手致谢,即使是一个表情刻板的商人也不例外。由此可见,微笑着向别人挥手改变的是他们的“感情”。前三项分别表示“趋势”、“观察”、“规章制度”,都与文章大意不符。单击此处进入 活页限时训练
