问题     Psychologist Alfred Adler suggested that the primary goal of the psyche (精神) was superiority. Although【1】he believed that individuals struggled to【2】superiority over others, Adler eventually developed a more【3】definition of the drive for superiority.
    Adler’s【4】of striving for superiority does not refer to the everyday meaning of he word superiority. He did not mean that we【5】seek to surpass one another in【6】or position, nor did he mean that we seek to【7】an exaggerated importance over our【8】.
    Rather, Adler’s drive for superiority involves the desire, to be competent and effective, complete and【9】, in whatever one strives to do.
    Striving for superiority occasionally takes the【10】of an exaggerated lust for power. An individual may seek to play god and exercise【11】over objects and people. The goal may introduce a【12】tendency into our lives, in which we play games of "dog eat dog". But such【13】of the desire for superiority do not reflect its more【14】, constructive nature.
    According to Adler, striving for superiority is innate and is part of the struggle for survival that human beings share with other species in the【15】of evolution. From this【16】, life is not【17】by the need to reduce【18】or restore equilibrium, as Sigmund Freud tended to think; instead, life is encouraged by the desire to move from below to above, from minus to plus, from【19】to superior. The particular ways in which individuals undertakes their【20】for superiority are determined by their culture, their unique history, and their style of life.
选项 A、worship
B、humiliate
C、achieve
D、endure
答案C
解析 选项C表示“完成；实现”。“achieve指排除阻力、困难而实现目标、计划、愿望等”，强调完成某项任务或事业的重要性，而且“achieve”与上文提到的“goal目标”构成搭配。而选项A“崇拜，敬仰；做礼拜；worship表示的尊敬程度最深，指主语对其认为神圣的人或事物的‘崇拜，崇敬’，带有虔诚的含义”，选项B“使蒙羞，羞辱，使丢脸”，选项D“表示‘持久，持续’的含义时，含有抵制住破坏力或其他不利因素而持续的意思。该词还可表示在一种良好的状态下存在下去”均不符合题意。
