问题     The happier you are, the better, right? Not necessarily. Studies show that there is a darker side to feeling good and that the【C1】________of happiness can sometimes make you less happy. Too much cheerfulness can make you deceivable, less successful—and that’s only the tip of the iceberg.
    Happiness does have【C2】________It can protect us from stroke and from the common cold, makes us more【C3】________ to pain and even【C4】________our lives. Yet, June Gruber, a psychologist warns that it’s important to experience positive moods in moderation. She compares happiness to food:【C5】________necessary and beneficial, too much food can cause problems;【C6】________happiness can lead to bad outcomes. "Research indicates that very high levels of positive feelings【C7】________risk-taking behaviors, excess alcohol and drug consumption, overeating, and may lead us to【C8】________threats," she says.
    How else can excessive joy, or having lots of positive emotions and a relative absence of【C9】________ones, hurt you?
    First, it may【C10】________your career prospects. Psychologist Edward Diener, known for his happiness research, and his colleagues analyzed a variety of studies, and discovered that those who early in their lives reported the highest life【C11】________years later reported lower income than those who felt slightly less【C12】________when young. What’s more, they【C13】________school earlier.
    Included in the studies was one【C14】________a group of American college freshmen who in 1976 claimed to be very cheerful. Surveyed again when they were in their late 30s, they earned, on average, almost $3,500 a year less than their slightly less cheerful【C15】________. Why? Diener suggests that people who don’t experience much sadness or anxiety are【C16】________dissatisfied with their jobs and therefore feel less pressure to get more education or change careers.
    Psychologists point out that emotions are【C17】________: They make us change behavior to help us【C18】________Anger prepares us to fight; fear helps us flee. But what about sadness? Studies show that when we are sad, we think in a more systematic manner. Sad people are attentive【C19】________ details and externally oriented, while happy people【C20】________ make snap judgments that may reflect racial or sex stereotyping.
【C6】

选项 A、however
B、likewise
C、furthermore
D、thus

答案B

解析 本句主句的compares…to提示本句为类比,说明快乐和食物一样,需要适度。和过多食物多会导致问题(cause problems)一样,过度快乐也会导致不好的后果(lead to bad outcomes),因此选择能表示类比的副词,B项likewise“同样地”。A项however表示转折,C项furthermore表示递进,D项thus表示因果,均不能体现类比关系。
