题目解答
答案
（1）C.细节理解题。根据下文"so it is hardly surprising that some of their self-worth comes from the approval of others.This instinct （天性） is a powerful force in many people's lives. （所以毫不奇怪，他们的一些自我价值来自于他人的认可。这种本能在许多人的生活中，是一种强大的力量。）"可知，人们对自己的认识常根据别人对自己的认可，可知人们是作为社会群居的群体，结合下文"instinct"可知，空白处讲述人属于群居生物的天性。选项C."人天生就是社会性生物。"符合语境，故选C。
（2）E.语境衔接题。根据前文"While for certain individuals，seeking social acceptance is so important that it becomes like an addiction. （然而对于某些人来说，寻求社会认可是如此重要，以至于它变成了一种瘾。）"可知，某些人把寻求社会认可视为"成瘾"，下文"Groups of children may join in bullying newcomers in school. （一群孩子在学校里可能会加入到新来者的欺凌中来。） "提到了这种"成瘾"带来的后果，可推知，空白处可以描述这种错误的认知带给他们的危害。选项E."他们可能会放弃对错的判断。"符合语境，故选E。
（3）B.标题归纳题。根据下文"Schools and other organizations try to teach kids about the dangers of negative peer pressure.They teach kids to stand up and be themselves，and encourage them to decline to do things that they believe are wrong. （学校和其他组织试图告诉孩子们负面同伴压力的危害。他们教孩子们站起来，做自己，鼓励他们拒绝做他们认为是错的事情。）"可知，本段论述的内容为对于"同辈压力"的现象，学校及其它组织教给孩子们的应付办法。因而作为本段的主题句应该为：要拒绝消极的"同辈压力"。选项B."对抗负面压力。"符合语境，故选B。
（4）D.段落大意题。根据本段主题句"Active Parenting （积极的父母教育）"可知，本段接下来描述的内容为积极的父母教育带给孩子的影响。选项D."父母的参与可以帮助减轻有害的同伴压力。"论证了父母的积极参与带来的结果，与本段论述的主题一致，符合语境，故选D。
（5）A.语境衔接题。根据前文"Being slf-aware is at the root of managing this type of pressure. （自我意识是管理这种压力的根本。） "提到了自我意识的意义，所以空白处可以承接前文，讲述要重视自我认知，选项A."重视自我"，符合语境，故选A。
（2）E.语境衔接题。根据前文"While for certain individuals，seeking social acceptance is so important that it becomes like an addiction. （然而对于某些人来说，寻求社会认可是如此重要，以至于它变成了一种瘾。）"可知，某些人把寻求社会认可视为"成瘾"，下文"Groups of children may join in bullying newcomers in school. （一群孩子在学校里可能会加入到新来者的欺凌中来。） "提到了这种"成瘾"带来的后果，可推知，空白处可以描述这种错误的认知带给他们的危害。选项E."他们可能会放弃对错的判断。"符合语境，故选E。
