文章大意：本文主要講述的是有關(guān)如何解壓的事情。在日常生活和工作中，如果我們背負(fù)了太多的負(fù)擔(dān)，時(shí)間一長(zhǎng)我們就容易受傷，所以在平時(shí)我們應(yīng)該在適當(dāng)?shù)臅r(shí)候放下負(fù)擔(dān)，放松自己。

【1】句意：你們認(rèn)為這杯水多重？

heavy重的；full滿的；long長(zhǎng)的。根據(jù)下文中Their answers were different, from 20g to 500g.他們的答案從20克到500克不同可知，空處的詞是“重的”，故答案為A。

【2】句意：學(xué)生們開始思考并猜測(cè)。

read讀；watch觀看；guess猜測(cè)。根據(jù)下句Their answers were different, from 20g to 500g.他們的答案從20克到500克不同可知，學(xué)生們不知道確切答案，所以空處的詞應(yīng)是“猜測(cè)”，故答案為C。

【3】句意：這與真正的重量沒有關(guān)系。

height高度；weight重量；length長(zhǎng)度。根據(jù)上句“How ______1______ do you think this glass of water is?” 你們認(rèn)為這杯水多重？可知，空處的詞應(yīng)是名詞“重量”，故答案為B。

【4】句意：如果我拿它一分鐘，那是可以的。

minute分鐘；day天；week周。根據(jù)下句If I hold it for an hour, I will have an ache in my right arm.如果我拿它一小時(shí)，我將右胳膊疼痛可知，空處的詞是比hour小的單位，分鐘。故答案為A。

【5】句意：如果你拿它一天，你將不得不給醫(yī)生打電話。

policeman警察；teacher老師；doctor醫(yī)生。根據(jù)If I hold it for an hour, I will have an ache in my right arm. 如果我拿它一小時(shí)，我將右胳膊疼痛可推測(cè)出，如果拿一天，胳膊會(huì)更不舒服，需要看醫(yī)生了，故答案為C。

【6】句意：我們必須做的事情是在又拿起杯子之前，放下杯子，休息一會(huì)。

rest休息；shake搖動(dòng)；work工作。根據(jù)but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes.我拿的時(shí)間越長(zhǎng)，它變得越重可知，空處的詞應(yīng)是動(dòng)詞“休息”，故答案為A。

【7】句意：如果我們一直背負(fù)負(fù)擔(dān)，遲早我們將會(huì)不堪重負(fù)。

this time這次；from time to time不時(shí)；all the time一直、始終。根據(jù)后句句意可知，空處的短語(yǔ)應(yīng)是“一直”，故答案為C。

【8】句意：我們必須時(shí)而放下負(fù)擔(dān)，以便我們能重新振作起來，繼續(xù)前進(jìn)。

think about考慮；put down放下；raise up舉起。根據(jù)后句so that we can be refreshed and are able to carry on以便我們才能重新振作，由此可以推測(cè)重新振作的前提是“放下”背負(fù)的重?fù)?dān)，故答案為B。

【9】句意：因此在你今晚下班回家之后，卸下負(fù)擔(dān)。

after在……之后；since自從；until直到……才。根據(jù)句意可知，空處的詞是“在……之后”，故答案為A。

【10】句意：學(xué)會(huì)放松你自己。

relax放松；help幫助；care關(guān)心。根據(jù)上句Whatever burdens you have, let them down for a moment if you can.無論你有什么負(fù)擔(dān)，如果可以的話，讓他們暫時(shí)放下，也就是放松一下自己可知，空處的詞應(yīng)是“放松”，故答案為A。
