Recent years have witnessed an increase in the number of people who feel guilty or ashamed about what they perceive to be negativity. For example, people who seek help from a psychotherapist to deal with highly distressing emotions often apologize for being too negative.【B16】_____________
In fact, anger and sadness are an important part of life, and new research shows that experiencing and accepting such emotions are vital to our mental health. Attempting to suppress thoughts can backfire and even diminish our sense of contentment. "Acknowledging the complexity of life may be an especially fruitful path to psychological well-being," says psychologist Jonathan M. Adler of the Franklin W. Olin College of Engineering.
Positive thoughts and emotions can, of course, benefit mental health.【B17】____________Taken to an extreme, however, that definition is not congruent with the messiness of real life. In addition, people’s outlook can become so rosy that they ignore dangers or become complacent.
【B18】__________________
Unpleasant and negative feelings are just as crucial as the enjoyable ones in helping you make sense of life’s ups and downs. "Remember, one of the primary reasons we have emotions in the first place is to help us evaluate our experiences," Adler says.
Adler and Hal E. Hershfield, a professor of marketing at New York University, investigated the link between mixed emotional experience and psychological welfare in a group of people undergoing 12 sessions of psychotherapy. "Taking the good and the bad together may detoxify the bad experiences, allowing you to make meaning out of them in a way that supports psychological well-being," the researchers found.
Negative emotions also most likely aid in our survival.【B19】______________Findings from a 2010 study suggested that pushing back negative emotions could spawn more emotional overeating than simply recognizing that you were, say, upset, agitated or blue. Suppressing thoughts and feelings can even be harmful. In a 2012 study psychotherapist Eric L. Garland of Florida State University and his associates found that those who restrained their thinking more often had stronger stress responses than did those who suppressed their thoughts less frequently.
Learning how to cope with negative emotions is the key. Instead of backing away from negative emotions, accept them. Acknowledge how you are feeling without rushing to change your emotional state.
【B20】____________________If the discomfort lingers, consider taking action. You may want to tell a friend her comment was hurtful or take steps to leave the job that makes you miserable.
[A] Reactions like this undoubtedly stem from our culture’s overriding bias toward positive thinking. Al-though positive emotions are worth cultivating, problems arise when people start believing they must be upbeat all the time.
[B] Eudaemonic approaches, on the other hand, emphasize a sense of meaning, personal growth and understanding of the self-goals that require confronting life’s adversities.
[C] If the emotion is overwhelming, you may want to express how you feel in a journal or to another person. The exercise may shift your perspective and bring a sense of closure.
[D] In other words, many people struggle with highly distressing emotions, such as extreme anger, or with suicidal thoughts although a therapy is to acknowledge and express a full range of emotions.
[E] Hedonic theories define well-being as the presence of positive emotion, the relative absence of negative emotion and a sense of life satisfaction.
[F] You may also try doing mindfulness exercises to help you get rid of negative feelings. One way to train yourself is to focus on your breathing while meditating.
[G] Bad feelings can be vital clues that a health issue, relationship or other important matter needs attention, Adler points out. The survival value of negative thoughts and emotions may help explain why suppressing them is so fruitless.
【B16】
选项
答案
A
解析
空格前举了一个例子:为了处理极度情绪而向精神治疗师求助的人会因为自己表现得消极而道歉。空格后是第二段,指出消极情绪也是生活中的重要部分。A第一句中的Reactions like this即指代空格前的例子说的情况,随后指出导致这个情况出现的原因——文化中对积极思维的绝对偏见,stem from意为“来自,由……造成”。A第二句指出,人们认为自己应该无时无刻保持着乐观向上的精神时,问题就出现了。言下之意就是,人们的情绪应该同时具有积极和消极的一面,不应该只有积极的,这正好对应空格后的内容。故选A。
