问题    Do you see the glass as half-full rather than half-empty? Such cliches (陈词滥调) have become【C1】______questions, as researchers examine with great care the power of positive thinking. Research is proving that optimism can help you to be happier, healthier and more successful. Pessimism leads,【C2】______, to hopelessness, sickness and failure, and is linked to【C3】______, loneliness and painful shyness. If we could teach people to think more positively, it would be like protecting them against these【C4】______illnesses.
   Your abilities count but the belief that you can succeed【C5】______the result. When things go wrong the pessimist tends to【C6】______himself. "I’m not good at this," he says. " I always fail. " But the optimist looks for other explanations. Negative or positive, you are what you think. If people feel hopeless they can’t be【C7】______to acquire the skills they need to succeed.
   A sense of control is the real test for success. The optimist feels in control【C8】______his own life. If things are going badly, he acts quickly, looking for solutions, forming a new plan of action, and【C9】______advice. The pessimist feels like a toy of fate and moves slowly. He doesn’ t seek advice, because he【C10】______nothing can be done. Many studies【C11】______that the pessimist’ s feeling of helplessness weakens the body’ s immune system. The pessimist doesn’ t take good care of himself. Feeling passive and unable to avoid life’ s blows, he expects ill health and other misfortunes, no matter what he does. He eats junk food, avoids exercise, and【C12】______the doctor.
   Most people are a(n)【C13】______of optimism and pessimism, but are in favor of one direction or the other. It is a pattern of【C14】______learned at our mothers’ knees. It grows out of thousands of cautions or【C15】______, negative statements or positive ones. Pessimism is a hard habit to break but it can be done. So, if you are a pessimist, there are ways.
【C2】
选项 A、for instance
B、at best
C、in fact
D、by contrast
答案D
解析 根据上下文可知，研究表明乐观主义可以使人更快乐、健康和成功，而悲 观主义使人绝望、患病和失败。由此可推知，此处表示对比关系，所以by contrast(相比 之下)符合语境。for instance：例如；at best：最多，充其量；in fact：实际上。故选D。
