Since we are social beings,the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal relationships. One strength of the human condition is our tendency to give and receive support from one another under stressful circumstances. Social support consists of the exchange of resources among people based on their iinterpersonal ties.Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to cope with major life charnges arid daily hassles (困难).People with strong social ties live longer and have bettrr health than those without such ties. Studies over a range of illnesses, from depression to heart disease,reveal that the presence of social support helps people fend off(挡开) illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health more likely.Social support cushions stress in a number of ways. First, friends,relatives,and co-work-ers may let us know that they value us. Our self-respect is strengthened when we feel accepted by others despite our faults and difficulties. Second, other people often provide us with informational support. They help us to define and understand our problems and find solutions to them. Third, we typically find social companionship supportive. Engaging in leisure-time activities with others helps us to meet our social needs while at the same time distracting(转移.....注意力)us from our worries and troubles. Finally, other people may give us instrumental support—financial aid, material resources, and needed services—that reduces stress by helping us resolve and cope with our problems.Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word“cushions”?()A.Does away with B.Adds the effect ofC.Lessens the effect of D.Has no change
选项
答案
C
解析
cushion为动词,对……起缓冲作用。选项中只有C项与之最为接近。如果不认识这个单词可以通过上下文进行推测词意。首先它后面跟的是stress,即压力。跟压力搭配的只能是动词,于是我们推测cushion stress的含义或者是增加压力,或者是减轻压力。 后面讲了四种方式,第三种方式会转移我们对担心与麻烦的注意力。明显cushion stress的含义就是减轻压力。B、D项可马上排除。A项为废除、去掉的意思,也不符合。
