九年级英语单选题简单题查看答案及解析

Are you a positive person? If so, you are always hopeful and think of good points of a situation instead of bad ones. The power of positive thinking has been widely researched. It’s funny that some of us accept this power quickly while others are doubtful. Do you know the reason? Our opinions about positive thinking might explain its point.

________

When facing a problem, we weigh success or failure against the problem itself. We might think that positive thinking always leads us to expect success. Actually, it’s more important to realize that positive thinking results in acceptance of our situation. If we think positively, we may predict success or ways to move on when we are in difficulties. There’s a difference between blind positivity and seeing things in a positive way.

Results from positive thinking

Does research see any real value in positive thinking? Many studies show that a positive attitude leads to less stress and sadness. Physically, positive thinking also leads to a longer life and quicker recovery(恢复) from sickness. Positive people with a family history of heart problems are even less likely to experience heart attacks.

Positive VS Negative(消极)

It seems strange to think that a state of mind can have such effects. But there are several reasons why a positive attitude is better than a negative one. Negative feelings are good for making us focus on tasks, such as running from danger, for example. However, positive feelings open us up to a world of kinds of possibilities and bring us helpful ways. The more results of positive thinking naturally last longer as well.

Strategies for positivity

A positive attitude comes easier for some people than others because it’s a born character. Still, anyone can try a few things to bring out the positive.

a. Rebuilding: See positives through negatives, such as being glad the subway is cheap even when crowded.

b. Distance: When making a big decision, act like you’re giving a friend advice.

c. Smile: Real or not, smiles are shown to decrease (降低) heart rate and blood pressure.

In the end, a positive attitude requires not only positive thinking but also positive action.

1.The passage may come from ________.

A. a notice　　 B. a survey　　 C. a diary　　 D. a magazine

2.The best subtitle for the second paragraph is “________”

A. What is blind positivity?　　 B. What is positive thinking?

C. How is success predicted?　　 D. What leads to success?

3.The underlined word “effects” means ________.

A. reasons　　 B. feelings　　 C. results　　 D. dangers

4.According to the passage, ________ is an example of positive thinking.

A. thinking of cheap tickets instead of crowded train

B. staying at home when you have a heart problem

C. laughing at your high blood pressure in hospital

D. helping your friend to make an important decision

5.From the passage, we know that ________.

A. negative thinking might lead to more possibilities

B. positive feelings can make us focus on difficult tasks

C. it’s easier for positive people to recover from illness

D. positive people will not die of serious heart problems

Can you remember the day when you spoke your first words? If you can, you are unusual. Try to think what the first few months of your life were like. I’m sure you just spent most of your time eating, sleeping and crying. As you grew older, you were awake more of the time. It took your parents more to play with you and talk to you. You watched and listened. You began to know that people make some sounds to go with some things.

Then you began to cry to make sounds you heard. And step by step you were able to make the right sound for one thing.

On that day you came to understand the secret of the language. The secret is that a certain sound means a certain thing. One sound might be as good as another. But it is not as good as a word unless everyone agrees on its meaning. Only when a group of people use the same set of sounds of things, they can understand each other, so these people have a language.

After you found the secret of language, you learned words. Some of the words meant things, such as books, chairs and shops. Some of the words meant actions such as go and swim. And other words described things such as good or dirty. Soon you learned to put words together to express one’s idea, such as“I want to go out and play with my friends.”This is language. By the way of language people can communicate. So we say languages mean communication.

1.________ can remember the day when we spoke our first words.

A.Few of us B.No one C.Most people D.Someone

2.When you were a little baby, you ________.

A.made sounds to let people know that you wanted to eat
