四六级辅导名师精析6月四级考试真题
仔细阅读PASSAGE Two
文章题目中的I suck可能会令考生困惑，意为很烂、很差、糟透了。Suck 一词在英语口语中使用频率很高，在英语电影中经常听到。文章首段第一句提出自助的理论基础是变消极思维为积极思维，但之后的连续两个问句让读者对此论述提出了质疑。第二段阐述了加拿大科学家的研究结果，即积极思维的效果适得其反。3-5段分别用两个实验论证了这一研究结果的正确性：90年代的作文案例和68名学生的自我肯定案例。作者在最后一段推荐了一种新的心理疗法：静思法。

原文定位于最后一段。作者在最后一段提出了新的心理疗法，建议人们接受消极思维，而不要一味用积极思维去反抗。In contrast这一短语的应用，说明meditation是积极思维的对立面，即消极思维的一种方式。只有把自己的不足放到更广泛、更现实的层面去思考，才会大事化小，小事化了。选项D中的内容文中并未提及。
