时尽量减少其负面影响)”可知，上文提到了减少负面影响，本句为本段最后一句，应说明调节负面情绪的好处。故E选项“调节负面情绪也有助于理智思考”符合语境，故选E。第三部分语言运用(共两节，满分30分)第一节(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分)阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Iloveandenjoyplayingthepiano.Sowhentherecital(音乐演奏会)was___21___,Iwasdisappointed.Ihadexpecteditforlongandalready___22___mybestsongs.However,Momturnedthis___23___intosomethingworthwhile.“Youshould___24___atCarriageHouseManor.I'msurethe___25___therewouldreallyappreciatethemusic.”Tome,thiswasawin-winsituationbecausenotonlywouldIplaymoresongs,butIhavethechanceto___26___theresidents,someofwhomtragicallydidn'thavefamilies.Themuch-anticipatedday___27___arrived.Steppingintothediningarea,Isawseveralgray-hairedpeopleseeminglyenjoyingadinnerandthe___28___.Despiteon-goingconversationsattables,___29___stillhunglikeadarkcloudintheroom.Afterintroductions,Isatdowninfrontofthepiano,butterfliesinmystomach.Butmy____30____meltedawayasIplayedon.Thedinnerhourflewby.Onewomangotupandbegantocheerfully____31____abouttheroomtothebeatofthe____32____whileotherssnappedtheirfingers(打响指).Iwas____33____toseehowmusicbroughtbigsmilestotheirfaces.Callingofftherecitalwasablessingbecauseitledtous____34____thegiftofmusicwiththosewhoneededitmost.Gospread____35____wheneverpossible.21.A.cancelled
