问题     Since we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal relationships. One strength of human condition is our possibility to give and receive support from one another under stressful(有压力的)conditions. Social support makes up the exchanges of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties. Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to deal with major life changes and daily problems. People with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties. Studies over types of illnesses, from depression to heart disease, show that the presence of social support helps people defend themselves against illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health more likely.
    Social support cushions stress in a number of ways. First, friends, relatives and coworkers may let us know that they value us. Our self-respect is strengthened when we feel accepted by others in spite of our faults and difficulties. Second, other people often provide us with informational support. They help us to define and understand our problems and find solutions to them. Third, we typically find social companionship supportive.(75)Taking part in free-time activities with others helps us to meet our social needs while at the same time distracting us from our worries and troubles. Finally, other people may give us instrumental support—money aid, material resources, and needed services—that reduces stress by helping us resolve and deal with our problems.
According to the passage, which of the following is true?

选项 A、Playing chess with others in spare time is of informational support.
B、Social support enables us to succeed in dealing with all kinds of problems.
C、With social support, people will become perfect without any faults.
D、It’ s possible that people who have fewer social ties are in poor health.

答案D

解析 事实细节题。由文章第一段最后一句的调查内容可知,好的社会关系可以帮助病人抵御疾病,而社会关系的缺失很可能会造成人们的身体状况欠佳,故D项说法是正确的。A项中playing chess是“social companionship support,”;B、C项说法太过绝对。
