了一个为期八周的正念减压项目,并于 1979 年在马萨诸塞大学医学院建立了现在的正念中
心。提示词 think(认为)作后置定语修饰名词词组 One of the people,是非谓语动词,与
其逻辑主语 One of the people 之间是被动关系,应用过去分词表被动。故填 thought。
【2 题详解】
考查名词性从句。句意:Jon Kabat-Zinn 是通常被认为将正念引入西方的人之一。他开发
了一个为期八周的正念减压项目,并于 1979 年在马萨诸塞大学医学院建立了现在的正念中
心。空格后是及物动词 found 后的宾语从句,从句中缺少主语,用连接代词 what 引导该宾
语从句,作主语。故填 what。
【3 题详解】

学科 网(北 京)股 份有限 公司
人所接受。根据句意,句中指代“西方人”,用复数代词 those。故填 those。
【4 题详解】

据句意,anxiety 和 depression 是对 health issues 的举例说明,可用介词 like 引出列举
对象,意为“例如,譬如”。故填 like。
【5 题详解】
考查动词时态和语态和主谓一致。句意:在过去的几年里,大量的研究集中在正念冥想的能
力。focus on(聚焦,集中)是句中谓语动词,结合时间状语 over the past few years 可知
应用现在完成时态,与主语之间可理解为主动关系“研究集中于……”,用主动语态,也可
理解为被动关系“研究被聚焦于……”,用被动语态,又因“a large quantity of+名词”
作主语,谓语动词用单数形式,所以谓语动词用现在完成时主动或被动语态,单数形式。故
填 has focused/has been focused。
【6 题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:考虑到正念可以减少压力,它也可以帮助处理情绪问题就不足为奇了。
分析句子可知,空格后是限制性定语从句,修饰先行词 way(方式);名词 way 表示“方式”
时,其后定语从句可用关系词 that 或者 in which 引导,也可省略引导词,结合语法填空特
征,本题用关系代词 that 引导。故填 that。
【7 题详解】

明会降低工作记忆。根据句意,上下文上之间存在因果关系,用从属连词 as 或者 because
引导原因状语从句。故填 as/because。
【8 题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:对照组的工作记忆下降;然而,在正念组中,花最少时间进行正念
冥想的人工作记忆下降,而花大部分空闲时间进行正念冥想的人工作记忆增加。spend some
time (in) doing sth.是固定搭配,用动名词作宾语。故填 practising。
【9 题详解】
考查形容词比较级。句意:例如,一项研究发现,在正念冥想之后,参与者不太可能形成准
确的记忆。结合上文“it’s not a cure-all”可知,句中讲正念冥想的不足之处,用比较
级 less likely 表示否定意思,意为“不太可能”。故填 less likely。
