This alone should do wonders in relieving stress in your relationships. Doctors know that prolonged anxiety harms you, but encouraging words can remove stress and a peaceful mind leads to improved physical health, too. _2_ Avoid fueling verbal fire. When someone starts to blow up all at you, be careful about your response. Why burn your relationship house down with your own mouth? Try spraying water on an argument with calm words instead of using a flamethrower. How many marriages have been destroyed when in a fit of anger people spew out hurtful accusations to one another that are never forgotten! _3_ “A soft answer turns away wrath(狂怒), but a harsh word stirs up anger.”Stop plaining. We all know people who plain all the time, especially about the fault of others. _4_ Nothing is ever going well for them, and probably nothing ever will as long as they keep plaining and putting their energy on what they really dont want. Do think before you speak. _5_ It is useless regretting. It doesnt matter how unintentional they may be, words can sometimes cut a lot deeper than a sword. Very often youll hear people say, “I didnt mean to hurt your feelings.” Well, if you didnt want to hurt feelings why couldnt you be thoughtful before you let the unpleasant words escape your loose lips?AYou should practice waiting a while before answering someone when you are angry.BPractice speaking positive words instead of negative ones.CWe store in our minds in a kind of mental art gallery what others have said to us.DOnce the words leave your mouth, it is impossible to take them back.EThe longer you think, the better youll speak.FThe more they do so, the more they are disliked.GThink twice before speaking. 【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文，告诉我们应如何注意自己的说话方式以帮助我们减压并改善人际关系。1答案与解析：B根据空后一句“Concentrate on the qualities of.on their faults.”和下文的“encouraging words can remove stress”可知，应选B(练习说一些积极的话语而不是消极的话语)。2答案与解析：C由空前一句中的“prolonged anxiety harms you, but encouraging words can remove stress”可知，我们会把别人对我们说的话储存在脑海里，如果这些话是消极的，则会伤害我们；相反若是鼓励性的话语，就会帮我们消除压力，故选C。3答案与解析：A根据空前一句中的“. when in a fit of anger people spew out hurtful accusations to one another that are never forgotten！”可知，人们一气之下就会说出让自己后悔的话，所以要练习在气头上控制自己的情绪，故选A(当你生气时，你应该练习在回答问题之前先等一会儿)。4答案与解析：F由空前一句“We all know people who plain all the time.of others.”和空后的“Nothing is ever going well for them”可知，那些喜欢抱怨的人抱怨得越多，他们就越不招人喜欢，F选项中的they指的就是那些爱抱怨的人。5答案与解析：D最后一段的主题是“在说话之前要三思”。根据空前的“Do think before you speak”和空后一句“It is useless regretting.(后悔是没有用的。)”可知，选D项。三、短文改错(2018广西重点高中二模)The day before Mothers Day, everybody around me was talking about what was most suitable gift they would buy for their mothers.

The language is unpleasant and there arent any tourist _1_ (attract) like Frances Louvre or Englands Buckingham Palace.I begged my parents to reconsider, _2_ before I knew it, we were boarding our flight to Munich.On arriving there, we found the houses and roads somehow looked oldfashioned.In January, the snowwhite scenery _3_ (be) breathtaking.Every morning we _4_ (serve) a satisfying breakfast buffet in German style.Almost every day we went to a ski resort and learned how to ski.It took us _5_ couple of days to get the hang of it.We visited Germanys highest mountain peak, _6_ the weather was perfect above the clouds.I found _7_ interesting that we had to pay for grocery bags.Because my mom and I didnt know this (and we didnt want to pay extra), we made two trips to carry groceries from the store to the car.I realized that I was being exposed _8_ a different culture where certain behavior that may be _9_ (accept) in America was not here.Since the trip, I have studied German for years and learned more about the world culture.I began _10_ (appreciate) new things from a different perspective and with an open mind.语篇解读：一次不情愿的德国之旅让作者体会到文化风俗的差异，促使作者从不同的角度去了解世界文化，以一种开放的心态去欣赏新的事物。1attractionstourist attraction为固定搭配，意为“旅游景点”，该句中的谓语动词是arent，所以此处要用复数形式，故填attractions。2but根据上下文可知，设空处前后两个句子之间是转折关系，所以此处应填表示转折的并列连词，故填but。3was根据上一句中的found可知，作者描述的是过去发生的事情，所以应用一般过去时，故填was。4were served主语we和谓语动词serve之间是被动关系，而且是描述过去发生的动作，所以要用一般过去时的被动语态，故填were served。5aa couple of .为固定搭配，意为“几个”，故填a。6where分析句子结构可知，该空应是非限制性定语从句的引导词，先行词是表示地点的名词mountain peak，引导词在定语从句中作地点状语，故填where。7itfind itadj./n.that .为固定句型，it是形式宾语，that引导的从句是真正的宾语，故填it。8tobe exposed to .为固定搭配，意为“面临；体验；暴露于”，故填to。9acceptable/acceptedbe动词后面多用形容词作表语，故填acceptable，意为“可接受的”。此处也可理解为“被接受”，故用被动语态，填accepted。10to appreciate/appreciatingbegin to do/doing sth.意为“开始做某事”，故填to appreciate或appreciating。
