　　1.A 解析：根據(jù)上下文可知，作者在列舉一些讓人感到不開(kāi)心的事情。在職場(chǎng)中，沒(méi)能獲得晉升就是其中之一。promotion提升;gift禮物;match比賽;break休息。

　　2.C 解析：或許你的心上人和你分手了。break up with sb.與某人分手;keep up with sb.跟上某人;put up with sb.容忍某人;make up with sb.同某人言歸于好。

　　3.B 解析：句意：人們說(shuō)“你別往心里去”“不要讓它對(duì)你產(chǎn)生影響”，但是那做起來(lái)卻很難。but提示上下文存在轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，說(shuō)明事情是說(shuō)起來(lái)容易，但是做起來(lái)難(hard)。

　　4.D 解析：如果你覺(jué)得心灰意冷，有什么策略能讓你感覺(jué)好點(diǎn)呢?

　　5.D 解析：根據(jù)下文“I'm the greatest!”以及常理推斷，在遭受挫敗的時(shí)候，人們往往對(duì)自己重復(fù)(repeating)一些鼓勵(lì)的話，讓自己心情好起來(lái)。

　　6.C 解析：重復(fù)“我是最棒的!”或者在和其他二流足球隊(duì)員比賽時(shí)獲勝都不是增強(qiáng)自尊的好方法。build此處意思是“逐漸增強(qiáng)”。

　　7.B 解析：根據(jù)下文內(nèi)容可知，這是作者提出的幾點(diǎn)建議。tip常用來(lái)表示一些有用的小建議;idea主意，想法;plan計(jì)劃;method(系統(tǒng)的)方法。

　　8.A 解析：你會(huì)和你所幫助的人獲得一樣多的收益。benefit得益于;repay償還;reject拒絕接受;demand要求。
