折关系。故选D项。

【答案】6.B7.G8.F9.E10.D

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了抑郁时积极思考的一些建议。

6.前文“Ifyou'rewonderinghowtobecomemorepositivewhendepressed,youmayneedsomeactionabletipsto

getstarted.（如果你想知道如何在抑郁时变得更积极，你可能需要一些可行的建议来开始）”提到在抑郁时变

得更积极需要可行的建议，后文段落具体介绍了这些建议，空处应该指出有这样一些建议，因此B项“Here

aresomeideas.（这里有一些想法）”符合语境，承上启下。故选B。

7.段首句“Keepapositivejournal.（坚持写积极向上的日记）“建议记录积极向上的想法，前文“Positive

thoughtscanbefewandfarbetweenwhenyouhavedepression.（当你抑郁时，积极的想法可能很少）”提到抑郁

时积极的想法会彳艮少，后文“Evenififssomethingassmallasseeingabeautifulflowerorreceivingasupportive

textfromafriend,keeparecordofyourbettermoments.（即使是看到一朵美丽的花或收到朋友的支持短信这

样的小事，也要记录下你的美好时刻）”具体指出很美好的小事也值得记录，空处应该是建议及时记录下那

些积极的想法，因止匕G项“Soeachtimeahappyorhopefulthoughtcomesintoyourhead,writeitdown.（所以

每当一个快乐或充满希望的想法进入你的脑海时，把它写下来）”符合语境，呼应段首句，承上启下。故选

Go

example,youmightdislikehavingdepression,butimaginethatonedayyoucoulduseyourstorytohelp

others-tostartasupportgrouporwriteabook.（下次当你在困难面前感到绝望时,想象一下最积极的结果。

例如，你可能不喜欢抑郁，但想象有一天你可以用你的故事来帮助别人——成立一个支持小组或写一本书）”

可知，本段主要建议想象一下最积极的结果，空处位于段首，是段落主旨句，应该与此相关，且需和其他

段首句——样使用祈使句的形式。因此F项“Takeachallengingsituationandimaginethemostpositiveoutcome.

（面对一个具有挑战性的情况，想象最积极的结果）”符合语境，可统领段落内容。故选F。

9.前文“Nexttimeyouobserveanegativethoughtenteringyourmind,askyourself:"Istherebasisforthis

thought?"Forexample,hasanyoneevertoldyouthatyouwereaterriblefriendapartfromyourself?（下次当你看

到一个消极的想法进入你的脑海时，问问自己：“这个想法有根据吗”例如，除了你自己，有没有人告诉过

你，你是一个糟糕的朋友）''建议在有消极的想法时，质疑自己的想法，向自己提问，后文“Whataboutallthe

timesyou'vebeensupportiveorhelpfultothepeopleinyourlifb?（那你在生活中支持或帮助别人的时候呢）“依

然是提问的问题，空处应该也是一个向自己提问的问题，因此E项“Ifso,isthatperson'sopiniontheonlyone

youtrulyvalue?（如果是这样，那个人的意见是你唯一真正看重的吗）”符合语境，承接前一句中的问题。故

选Eo

10.根据后文“Duringdepression,however,itoftenfeelseasiertohideunderyourcoversandletthenegative

thoughtstakeoverthantrytochangeyourpatterns.Trytochallengeyourselfduringyourstrongermomentstotry

tofindsomethingtofeelpositiveabout.（然而，在抑郁期间，躲在被子里让消极的想法接管比尝试改变你的

模式更容易。在你情绪较好的时候，试着挑战自己，试着找到一些让你感到积极的事情）”可知，本段主要

指出在抑郁期间改变自己很困难，应在情绪较好时去找让自己感到积极的事情，空处作为段首句，应该与

养成积极想法很困难相关，因此D项“Buildinghealthyhabitscanbehardatthebestoftimes.（即使在最好的

时候，养成健康的习惯也很难）”符合语境，契合后文内容。故选D。
