In English, the color green is associated with jealousy, which is sometimes jokingly called " the green-eyed monster". But it’s no joke when jealousy【C1】______your life.
Jealousy often consists【C2】______a combination of emotions such as anger, resentment, inadequacy, helplessness and disgust. So far, psychologists have proposed several models of the processes【C3】______ jealousy and have identified some factors that would possibly【C4】______this emotion. Jealousy is often【C5】______as a series of particularly strong emotions and constructed as a【C6】______human experience.【C7】______jealousy is a normal, healthy emotion: it’s part of what makes us tick. Who hasn’t experienced sibling rivalry or felt【C8】______when their partner spends time with other people? Feeling jealous helps us【C9】______our loved ones and protect our important relationships. But for a small number of us, extreme jealousy【C10】______lead to obsessive behavior like stalking. It can also cause【C11】______, destroy relationships and even kill their lovers.
Now researchers in Italy believe they’ve found the area of the brain【C12】______for obsessive jealousy, which is called Othello’s syndrome,【C13】______the Shakespeare character who kills his wife because of jealousy. The ventromedial prefrontal cortex is just above the forehead. This is the part of the brain which【C14】______emotions, including thinking about those we love. But【C15】______, we use this part of the brain to【C16】______ scenarios of losing our loved ones, and thinking about【C17】______we would feel if that happened.
Obsessively jealous people spend too much time【C18】______on these scenarios. For them, losing their relationships seems like the end of the world. Now many scientists go【C19】______ for investigating medicines which could help treat people suffering from this devastating condition.【C20】______, eliminating jealousy is not a quick process. It is a gradual process that requires work, self-reflection, patience, and persistence.
【C7】
选项
A、Trivial
B、Mild
C、Tiny
D、Faint
答案
B
解析
形容词辨析题。句意为:轻微的嫉妒是一种正常、健康的情绪,它是使我们的生活不断继续的一部分。根据句子后半部分出现的a normal,healthy emotion(一种正常、健康的情绪)可知,此处填入修饰jealousy的形容词应该表示“程度轻的”。[B]Mild“温和的,轻微的”可修饰jealousy,表示程度轻微的嫉妒,为正确答案。其余三个形容词也含有“弱的,细小”的意思,但是侧重点不同。trivial“不重要的,琐碎的”,例如:It’s useless to fire away with such trivial details.(喋喋不休地谈这些琐碎细节是无用的。)tiny“微小的,很少的”,强调与同类或其他物体比较,小得超出正常比例,有时带强烈的感情色彩。例如:The tiny tropical island of Ascension is not easy to find.(这个微小的阿森松热带岛屿很不容易找到。)faint“虚弱的,微弱的”,指对某事物印象不深,或指声音微弱或希望渺茫等。例如:He coulddiscern a faint light ahead in the forest.(他能看到前面森林里有一线微弱的灯光。)[A]、[C]、[D]均不符合语境,所以排除。
