2. There is no sense for us to feel embarrassed when we talk to ourselves because _______.

　　A. it does no harm to have “self-talk” when we are alone

　　B. almost everybody has the habit of talking to themselves

　　C. we can benefit from talking to ourselves

　　D. talking to ourselves always gives us courage

　　答案解析：答案为C。本题为推理题。由第三段 “This “self-talk” helps us motivate ourselves, remember things, solve problems, and calm ourselves down. Be aware, though, that as much as 77% of self-talk tends to be negative. So in order to stay positive, we should only speak words of encouragement to ourselves.”可知，虽然77%的自言自语是消极的，但是自言自语可以激发我们，帮助我们记住事情、解决问题和使我们保持镇定。为了保持积极，我们对自己应该只讲鼓励的话语。由此可推断，自言自语让我们收益。故C选项正确，A选项错误。B选项只是一种现象，不是原因，D选项显得绝对，故均不选。

　　3．The underlined part in the third paragraph means that we should also occasionally _______.

　　A. give ourselves amusement                    B. praise ourselves  

　　C. remind ourselves                                   D. make ourselves relaxed
