本文是一篇說明文，介紹了世界上有兩種人——快樂的人和不快樂的人，快樂的人總能發(fā)現(xiàn)事物好的一面，而不快樂的人恰恰相反，總能發(fā)現(xiàn)事物不好的一面，但不快樂的習慣是可以擺脫的，作者建議不快樂的人改掉他們不快樂的習慣。11．細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中的“Peoplewhoaretobehappyfixtheirattentionontheconvenienceofthings…Thosewhoaretobeunhappythinkandspeakonlyoftheoppositethings.”可知，快樂的人總能發(fā)現(xiàn)事物好的一面，而不快樂的人恰恰相反，總能發(fā)現(xiàn)事物不好的一面，故D項正確。12．居易理解題。根據(jù)sourthepleasureofsociety后的“offend(hurt)manypeople,andmakethemselvesdisagreeableeverywhere.”可知，他們傷害了很多人，處處不討人喜歡，由此可知sourthepleasureofsociety的意思是“讓別人不快樂”，故B項正確。13．推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段中的“Thehabitmaybestrong,butitmaybecuredwhenthosewhohaveitrealizeitsbadeffectsontheirinterestsandtastes.”可知，不快樂的習慣是可以擺脫的，故C項正確。14．細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段中的“Theseshouldchangethisbadhabitandbepleasedwithwhatispleasing,withoutworryingneedlesslyaboutthemselvesandothers.Iftheydonot,itwillbegoodforotherstoavoidanycontactwiththem.”可知，如果不快樂的人拒絕改掉他們的習慣，其他人最好避免與他們接觸，故A項正確。15．作者意圖題。根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容，特別是第二段中的“Ihopethislittlewarningmaybeofservicetothem,andhelpthemchangethishabit.”可知，作者寫這篇文章的目的是建議不快的人改掉他們不快樂的習慣，故C項正確。
