1. a phenomenon是可数名词，此处是泛指一种全球的现象，所以应用不定冠词。故填a。
2. locations设空前有 different修饰，所以设空处应用复数形式。故填 locations。
3. from graduate from.是固定搭配，意为“毕业于…”。故填from。
4. further far的比较级为 further/farther。farther多用于表示实际距离“更远的”，further多表示抽象意义“进一步；更深入”。由句意可知应填 further。
5. highly修饰形容词 popular应用副词形式。故填 highly。

阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
People have all turned to sad music to make 1 (they) feel better at some point in their lives，but why does the music with double sadness help drag people out of low spirits
A new study throws light on what's going on inside people’s brains when they match the music to their feelings, and it looks as if sad music can be enjoyable, rather than 2 (simple) depressing. Music of this sort can arouse positive memories in people’s life, thus 3 (lift) their mood.
Psychologist Adrian North from Curtin University in Australia says 4 exist two groups of possible explanations for why people enjoy listening 5 sad music—one from social psychology（心理学）, and the other from cognitive neuroscience（神经学）.
In terms of social psychology, one idea about this is that people will feel 6 (good) about themselves if they focus on someone who’s doing even worse. Everything’s going to be okay, because this person is having 7 even worse day than they are.
Another idea from social psychology is that people like to listen to the very music 8 shows their present life circumstances, because this kind of music makes them feel they are understood. With their emotions 9 (share), they definitely get a certain amount of comfort.
So sad music does cheer people up, and it 10 (work) far better than happy music, in most cases.

【语篇导读】本文主要介绍了伤感的音乐对人们的影响。伤感的音乐能使人振奋，而且在大多数情况下，它比快乐的音乐更有效。
1. themselves设空处作make的宾语，指代主语 People，当宾语跟主语是同一个对象时，宾语应用反身代词。故填themselves。
2. simply修饰形容词应用副词。故填 simply。
3. lifting设空处应用非谓语动词作结果状语，lifting与句子主语为逻辑上的主动关系，且表示自然而然的结果，应用现在分词。thus为副词，意为“这样”。故填 lifting。
4. there There exists…为固定句型，意为“有……”。故填 there。
5. to listen to为固定搭配，意为“听……”。故填to。
6. better句意为：社会心理学对此有一种观点，即如果人们把注意力集中在一个做得更糟糕的人身上，他们的自我感觉便会好些。根据空后的 even worse以及句意可知，此处应用比较级，故填 better。
7. an句意为：一切都会好起来的，因为这个人的处境比他们还要糟糕。此处泛指“一天”，其前应用不定冠词。even的发音以元音音素开头，故填an。
8. that设空处引导定语从句，music是先行词，从句缺少主语，且先行词由 the very修饰，所以应用关系代词that，不可以用 which故填that。
9. shared句意为：因为他们的情绪得以分享，他们肯定会得到定程度的安慰。此处是“with+宾语+宾补”结构，emotions和share之间是逻辑上的被动关系，所以应用过去分词形式，故填shared。
10. works work是谓语动词，与主语it之间是主动关系，逗号前的分句使用一般现在时，所以此处也应用一般现在时。故填works。
