1.E根据空后一句话可知，空处与下一句是递进关系.E项“这会挑战你认为别人看待你的方式“，所以E 项符合语境。

2.F根据空前的“don't immediately allow your emotions to get the better of you，but rather，take a moment to consider whether the criticism is at all accurate”可知，空处应讲给自己一个机会真正吸收这些信息并对其进行评估。

故F项符合语境。

3.C根据该段小标题“Avoid unnecessary conflict”可知，C项“但是最好避免陷人争吵”符合语境。

4.A根据空后的“And it maybe because of a concept called‘cognitive dissonance' that can prevent us from changing even when that's what we need most” 及本段小标题可知，A项“我们大部分人都很倔强”符合语境。

5.G根据空后的“Your emotions will be running high，and you may not be particularly receptive to extra information”并结合上文可知，空处应讲最开始听到批评时不适合问更多的细节，故G项符合语境。
