【2018·北京卷】 Why Do We Get Angry?
Anger seems simple when we are feeling it, but the causes of anger are various. Knowing these causes can make us examine our behavior, and correct bad habits. The main reasons we get angry are triggering(触发) events, personality traits(特征), and our assessment of situations. 6
Triggering events for anger are so many that to describe them all would take hundreds of pages. However, here are some examples: being cut off in traffic, a deadline approaching, experiencing physical pain, and much more. ____7____ The reason why someone is triggered by something and others are not is often due to one’s personal history and psychological traits.
Each person, no matter who they are, has psychological imbalances. People who have personality traits that connect with competitiveness and low upset tolerance are much more likely to get angry. 8 Also, sometimes pre-anger does not have to do with a lasting condition, but rather a temporary state before a triggering event has occurred.
9 Sometimes even routine occurrences become sources of pre-anger, or anger itself. Sometimes ignorance and negative (消极的) outlooks on situations can create anger.
10 However, anger can easily turn violent, and it is best to know the reasons for anger to appear in order to prevent its presence. With these main reasons in mind, we can evaluate our level of anger throughout the day and prevent cases of outbursts by comprehending the reasons for our feelings.
A. Our attitude and viewpoint on situations can create anger within us as well.
B. But some types of situations can help us to get rid of the occurrence of anger.
C. Anger is rarely looked upon as a beneficial character trait, and is usually advised to reduce it.
7
D. Anger is a particularly strong feeling and maybe people think that they have reasons to feel angry.
E. Having these personality traits implies the pre-anger state, where anger is in the background of your mind.
F. Understanding these reasons will control our own anger if we are willing to evaluate ourselves with a critical eye.
G. Not everyone acts the same in response to events, and that is why what triggers one person may or may not trigger another.
【答案】6.F 7.G 8.E 9.A 10.D
【解析】本文是一篇说明文。文章按照总-分-总的结构讲述了人愤怒的三个原因——触发事件、个人特征和对环境的评估。希望通过了解这三个原因，我们能更好地控制自己的情绪。
6.本句作为第一段中的最后一句话，显然应该是总括性的句子。F选项中对于了解这些原因对我们控制情绪的好处恰好符合这一特征，故选F。
7.根据下一句中“why someone is triggered by something and others are not”可知，前文中提到了每个人的触发事件都各不相同，G 选项中“what triggers one person may or may not trigger another.”恰好提到了这一点，符合语境。故选G。
8.根据后文“Also, sometimes pre-anger does not have to do with a lasting condition, but rather a temporary state before a triggering event has occurred”可知，前一句也提到了pre-anger这一状态，E选项中“pre-anger state”恰好符合。除此之外，上一句的“personality traits”在此句中也出现了。故选E。
9.本文为总-分-总结构，按照第一段的顺序，此段应该讲assessment of situations，故选A。
10.根据后文“However, anger can easily turn violent, and it is best to know the reasons for anger to appear in order to prevent its presence.”可知，前面一句应该是说生气有其存在的合理性。故选D。
