解析
本题考查考查词汇在语境中的运用,解题思路是根据句子的句子结构、上下文语义以及固定搭配搭配来选择合适的单词。
- “thethe... that people are happy when they have a good salary”,这里“that”引导同位语从句从句,解释说明前面的名词,结合语境,“notion”(观念)符合后后表示“人们认为高薪就会快乐这种观念是不正确的”,所以填“notion”。
- “keep their spirits up and, at the same time... a sense of a sense of happiness at work”,这里需要一个动词,“foster”有“培养,促进”的意思,“foster a sense of happiness”表示“培养快乐感”,符合语境,所以填“foster”。
- “Happreciation is a state of mind, ... an attitude”,这里需要一个现在分词作伴随状语,“reflecting”表示“反映”,“反映态度,符合逻辑,所以填“reflecting”。
- “not on... rewards or material gain”,根据“or material gain”可知,这里需要一个与“物质”相关的形容词,“monetary”表示“金钱的”,“monetary rewards”即“金钱奖励”,所以填“monetary”。
- “Always remembering the good aspects of the work and... from thinking about what makes you unhappy”,“and”连接两个并列的动名词短语,“refrain from doing sth.”是固定搭配,表示“克制做某事”,所以填“refraining”。
- “Negativity and... about bad things are easy”,“and”连接两个并列的名词,“complaining”表示“抱怨”,“complaining about bad things”表示“抱怨不好的事情”,符合语境,所以填“complaining”。
- “Rather than looking for help and... from other people”,“and”连接两个并列的名词,“incentives”表示“激励,奖励”“寻找帮助和激励”,符合语境,所以填“incentives”。
- “Getting... with work is one of the primary factors that cause people to switch jobs”,“get bored with”是固定短语,表示“对……感到厌倦”,符合语境,所以填“bored”。
- “So find new challenges and deal with them by making... plans and following them”,这里需要一个形容词修饰“plans”,“exhaustive”表示“详尽的,彻底的”,“exhaustive plans”即“详尽的计划”,所以填“exhaustive”。
- “It is a good idea to have help from your manager if you hit a(n)...”,“hit a barrier”后面接名词,“barrier”表示“障碍”,“hit a barrier”表示“遇到障碍”,符合语境,所以填“barrier”。
