问题 What is the most important difference between happy people and unhappy people?
The phrase "sour the pleasure of society" most probably means______.
选项 A、having a good taste to the pleasure of society
B、being discontented with the pleasure of society
C、feeling happy with the pleasure of society
D、enjoying the pleasure of society
答案C
解析 由题干中的sour the pleasure of society定位到原文第二段第五句：By their remarks, they sour the pleasures of society, offend many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere.[精析] 这一短语与后面的offend many people和make themselves disagreeable everywhere是并列结构，所以表达的意思类似。通过offend和disagreeable可以看出，sour一词应该带有否定意味。实际上，通过上下文可以推测，sour在句中的意思为“对……不满，嫌恶，讨厌”。由此可见，选项C)为本题的正确答案。[排除干扰] A)“好好品味社会中的欢乐”，B)“为社会中的欢乐感到高兴”和D)“享受社会中的欢乐”这三个选项都表示肯定意味，与上述分析得出的结论不同，而且三个句子的意思类似，题目为单选题，所以可以同时排除。
