參考答案【正確答案：B】
推斷題。A選項(xiàng)與文章意思相反;C選項(xiàng)屬無(wú)中生有；文中只是說(shuō)“我們高興時(shí)，我們更可能對(duì)人做出反應(yīng)，同外界的聯(lián)系比我們憂愁時(shí)更密切”，并沒(méi)有說(shuō)憂愁的人對(duì)外界的反應(yīng)并沒(méi)有快樂(lè)的人多，故可排除D選項(xiàng)。文章第四段指出，我們高興時(shí), 更可能對(duì)別人做出反應(yīng)，而且同外界的聯(lián)系比我們憂愁時(shí)更密切。然而，這并不意味著一些人天生就憂愁。基因可能使一個(gè)人容易憂愁, 但是性情可能受個(gè)人選擇的影響, 你能夠通過(guò)自己的勞動(dòng)增加自己的快樂(lè)。故B選項(xiàng)正確。
