(2025·四川省仁寿第一中学(北校区)高三下学期模拟考试)Is there a pessimist in your life—a person who thinks about the negative aspects of a situation more than the positive? If you are optimistic, it may be hard to deal with a pessimist's opinions. The strategy to not let a pessimist get you down is to reduce the effect pessimism has on you. The following tips may work.
__1__
Sometimes we can spend so much time worrying about others and how __2__ that we lose sight of ourselves. Take responsibility for your own feelings and reactions towards pessimism. By focusing on your own happiness and less on others' negativity, you take the power away from negativity.
强化精练
Give attention to the person's good qualities
The individual's views on things aren't her only feature. __3__. So rather than fixing on the negatives, look for the good things. Is she intelligent? Supportive of you? Is she unique enough not to care what anyone else thinks about her? Pay attention to the positive aspects of a person and seek to balance out the negatives.
Practice acceptance
__4__. Learning to get along with people who are not like us is an important part of selfdevelopment and socialization. Being pessimistic isn't always bad. Some researchers have argued it may actually make people happier and closer to reality because they will be more prepared and less disappointed if they consider that the worst outcome might occur.
强化精练
Create boundaries
You may need to spend time apart from this person or distance yourself. Setting boundaries on what you discuss with the person and how long you bathe in her influence can be useful ways of overcoming your dislike of being in her presence. Of course, do not just ignore her. __5__.
A.care about others
B.Focus on yourself
C.they are feeling
D.There are many more complex qualities within a person

题组16 残缺句线索——复合句残缺/并列句残缺/简单句残缺
The perception of visual illusions, once widely regarded as a phenomenon exclusive to humans, is not uniquely human after all.

Understanding the Solitaire Illusion
__2__. Previous studies have highlighted its impact on humans, capuchin monkeys, guppies, and bumblebees, while other species like chimpanzees, rhesus monkeys, and domestic dogs seem immune to it. __3__. In them, insects were conditioned to connect a higher quantity of dots with a sugar reward.
The Universality of Illusions
Both bees and wasps exhibited a perception of the illusion that is similar to the perception of humans and other species. Such findings emphasize the universality of illusions, __4__. The ability to perceive illusions might have evolved as a crucial adaptation for the efficient processing of complex information. The study put forward two potential evolutionary routes—convergent (趋同的) evolution and conserved evolution.

Unraveling More Aspects
Despite these findings, the iScience study recognizes the Solitaire illusion's multifaceted nature. It might not solely depend on quantity but could include other elements such as color area, size, or perimeter.

The study of visual illusions provides fascinating glimpses into the workings of different brains. __5__.
A.The illusion exists in two animals
B.indicating that illusion perception is limited to animals
C.suggesting that it is not confined to human perception
