问题     Psychologist Alfred Adler suggested that the primary goal of the psyche(精神)was superiority. Although【C1】______he believed that individuals struggled to【C2】______superiority over others, Adler eventually developed a more【C3】______definition of the drive for superiority.
    Adler’s【C4】______of striving for superiority does not refer to the everyday meaning of the word superiority. He did not mean that we【C5】______seek to surpass one another in【C6】______or position, nor did he mean that we seek to【C7】______an exaggerated importance over our【C8】______.
    Rather, Adler’s drive for superiority involves the desire, to be competent and effective, complete and【C9】______, in whatever one strives to do.
    Striving for superiority occasionally takes the【C10】______of an exaggerated lust for power. An individual may seek to play god and exercise【C11】______over objects and people. The goal may introduce a【C12】______tendency into our lives, in which we play games of ""dog eat dog"". But such【C13】______of the desire for superiority do not reflect its more【C14】______, constructive nature.
    According to Adler, striving for superiority is innate and is part of the struggle for survival that human beings share with other species in the【C15】______of evolution. From this【C16】______, life is not【C17】______by the need to reduce【C18】______or restore equilibrium, as Sigmund Freud tended to think; instead, life is encouraged by the desire to move from below to above, from minus to plus, from【C19】______to superior. The particular ways in which individuals undertakes their【C20】______for superiority are determined by their culture, their unique history, and their style of life."
【C12】

选项 A、amiable
B、hostile
C、alien
D、cruel

答案B

解析 选项B表示“有害的;敌对的,敌方的,敌意的”,指态度、行为十分不友好且具危险性。根据上下文,上文提到“an exaggerated lust for power”以及下文的“dogeat dog”,可见“the goal of superiority is hostile”。而选项A“和蔼可亲的;令人愉悦的”与原文意思相反,选项C“外国的,外国人的;陌生的”,选项D“残忍的,残酷的”是本题的干扰项,不符合题意。
