问题    When we are not engaged in thinking about some definite problem, we usually spend about 95 percent of our time thinking about ourselves. Now, if we stop thinking about ourselves for a while and begin to think of other persons’ good points, things will be quite different.
   One of the most neglected virtues is appreciation. Somehow, we neglect to praise our son or daughter when he or she brings home a good report card, and we fail to encourage our children when they first succeed in baking a cake or building a birdhouse. Nothing pleases children more than this kind of parental interest and approval.
   The next time you enjoy delicious food at a restaurant, send word to the cook that it was excellently prepared, and when a tired salesperson shows you unusual politeness, please mention it.
   Every minister, lecturer and public speaker knows the discouragement of pouring himself or herself out to an audience and not receiving any appreciative comment. What applies to professionals applies doubly to workers in offices, shops and factories and our families and friends. In our interpersonal relations we should never forget that all our associates are human beings and hunger for appreciation. It is the legal tender that all souls enjoy.
   Try to be friendly and appreciate in your daily life, and you will be surprised how that will change your life and the world.
According to the passage, people______.

选项 A、spend a lot of time thinking about others
B、think about themselves most of the time
C、spend little time thinking about themselves
D、think more about others than themselves

答案B

解析 事实细节题。根据文章第一段第一句“…we usually spend about 95 percent of our time thinking about ourselves.”可知,在我们不思考一些明确的问题时, 一般会花百分之九十五的时间思考我们自己的事情,所以选项B“人们大部分时间是 想自己的事情”符合题意。其他三项与文义不符。
