9、ed19. AIn contrastBAs a resultCOn the wholeDFor instance20. AinflexibleBincapableCunreliableDunsuitable1.【答案】C【解析】该题选择的是介词，与后面的 many worthwhile things 一块做后置定语修饰前面的 condition,表明对于许多重要事情来说是一个必要的条件。而 A 选项from（来自于），C 选项 like（像）D 选项 on（关于）均语义不搭。2.【答案】A【解析】此处考察语义一致和对上下文辨析的问题。该空是做 put 的宾语，通过前 面 的 On the on

10、e hand, its a necessary condition (1) many worthwhile things: child care, friendships, etc. (一方面,信任对许多重要事情来说是必要条件，比如照看孩子，友谊等)；on the other hand 可以得知该题仍然是在讲述关于主题 trust 的问题，所以只有 faith（信任）最合适。而 B 选项 concern（关心，关注），C选项 attention（注意），D 选项 interest（兴趣，利益）均不符题意。3.【答案】D 【解析】此处考察词义辨析。前文说到 putting your in the

11、 wrong place often carries a high （把放在错误的地方通常会带来巨大的），可以知道该空肯定也是填贬义，但肯定不能是 debt 债务这种具体含义，所以只能选 price， 并且 carries a high price 也指付出高昂的代价。4.【答案】B【解析】此题考察上下文逻辑关系。上一段分析的是信任的利弊，该段所指内容 , why do we trust at all? （我们为什么会要信任？）所以采用了递进关系，进一步说明信任的具体内容。只有 D 选项 then(然后，那么)最符合语义搭配。而A 选项 again（再次）表示强调；B 选项 instead（然

12、而）表转折；而 C 选项 therefore（因此）表结果，均不符合。5. 【答案】D【解析】此处再一次考察逻辑关系。该空 people place their trust in an individual or an institution, their brains release oxytocin，a hormone（ 人们信任一个人或者一个机构，大脑都会释放一种荷尔蒙）,只有 when（当时）符合上下文语境和逻辑语境。6. 【答案】B【解析】该题是考察定语从句的动宾搭配问题。上一句说当人们产生信任感，大脑就会产生一种荷尔蒙，a hormone that (6) pleasurable

13、feelings 这个 that 就是定语从句，指这种荷尔蒙能 令人愉悦的感觉，只能是 produce 最符合语境。7.【答案】C【解析】考察词义辨析。该空所填为动词，并且要求与之后的 with 形成搭配。and triggers the herding instruct that leads sheep to flock together for safety and prompts humans to with one another. 说明这种荷尔蒙能够引发一种群居本能，这种本能能让羊群聚在一起，and 的后面的内容也与前面的 flock together 同义复现。所以只有 conne

14、ct 最符合语境。8. 【答案】D【解析】该题考察固定搭配。与 exposure to 构成固定搭配的关系。表示“接触”9. 【答案】B【解析】该题考察上下文语义。上文中说到这种荷尔蒙会给人带来一种愉悦的情绪，通过这个结论，可以得出这种荷尔蒙能让人有让人信任的情绪/心绪。只有mood 是最合适的答案。10.【答案】A【解析】此处仍然是考察上下文语境。上文中 In a study, researchers sprayed oxytocin into the noses of half the subjects; 能从下文得知这也是只本句讲另外一组受试者。conuterparts 表示对应物，对应

15、的人。11.【答案】B【解析】此处考察上下文逻辑关系。从后文中的 also 可以看出前后一致的关系。前文对于这种天赋都是褒义的色彩，所以答案此时应该是 lucky。12.【答案】B【解析】同样也是因为 also，说明前后一致关系。只能选择 protect.13.【答案】A【解析】考察固定搭配。A Canadian study found that children as young as 14 months can differentiate a credible person and a dishonest one. 选则 between 意为：14 个月大的孩子能在诚实和不诚实的人之间进行区分。14.【答案】C【解析】考察搭配。结合原文语境，“Sixty toddlers were each to adult tester holding a plastic container”选项 C“be introduc
