It’s part of the new year ritual—an annual attempt to start afresh and turn over a new leaf. But making resolutions is a near pointless exercise, psychologists say.
【C1】______than a quarter of those asked for a university study had managed to【C2】______to their resolutions. Of those who【C3】______, many had followed the silly【C4】______of self-help experts—which almost【C5】______disaster.
Richard Wiseman, a psychologist who【C6】______the analysis, said his team had asked 700 people about their【C7】______for achieving new year resolutions. Their goals【C8】______from losing weight or giving【C9】______smoking to gaining a qualification or【C10】______a better relationship.
Of the 78% who failed, many had focused on the downside of not achieving the goals; they had controlled their strong desires, fantasised about being successful, and adopted a role model or 【C11】______willpower alone.
On the other hand, people who kept their resolutions tended to have【C12】______their goal into smaller steps and【C13】______themselves when they achieved one of these. They also told their friends about their goals, focused on the benefits of success and【C14】______a diary of their progress.
Making new year resolutions at the【C15】______minute can backfire(适得其反), Wiseman warned,【C16】______such decisions tend to be less【C17】______motivated. "If you do it on the【C18】______of the moment, it probably doesn’t mean that much to you and you won’t give it your all. Failing to achieve your【C19】______is often psychologically harmful because it can rob people of a【C20】______of self control." [br] 【C12】
选项
A、broken
B、contaminated
C、reversed
D、shrunk
答案
A
解析
考查动词辨析。从句子后面的smaller steps和one of these可知此处表示把一个大的goal分解成几个小的单元。break into有“把……分成”的意思,故选broken。contaminate“污染”和reverse“倒退”,意思不符合。 shrink“缩小”,如果是把一个目标缩小的话,应该也是缩成一个,与后面steps和one of these矛盾,故也错误。
