26、gB.leaningC.hittingD.competing 解析:解析:根据空格后的 an opponent(对手),再结合上文的 a simple game(一个简单游戏),可推断此处选 D 项 compete“竞争”,compete againstwith 意为“与竞争”,这里表示他们与对手竞争谁更快按下按钮。(3).【C3】(分数:2.00)A.theoryB.turnC.reality D.return解析:解析:空格前一句说参加者认为是在比谁按下按钮快,空格后则说胜负是随机决定的(randomly decided),两者语义相反,故选表“对比”的 C 项 in reality。(4
27、).【C4】(分数:2.00)A.whether B.thatC.howD.what解析:解析:此处需填入 decided 后的宾语从句的引导词。根据从句中的 or,选择连词 whether。表明“随机决定他们赢了还是输了”。(5).【C5】(分数:2.00)A.initiatedB.evadedC.expectedD.received 解析:解析:下一句提及“当对手输了,他们就给对手实施电击(gave the shock)”,故推断当他们输了,那么就将“接受”电击。因此选择与 gave 方向相反的 D 项 received“接受”。(6).【C6】(分数:2.00)A.sharpB.seri
28、ousC.painfulD.intense 解析:解析:此处需要填入与 long 并列的形容词,修饰 shock(电击)。D 项 intense“强烈的”,表示他们选择要进行的时长和“强度”,符合句意。(7).【C7】(分数:2.00)A.AfterB.DuringC.Before D.When解析:解析:此处需要填入表示时间的连词。该句说参与者需要完成一份问卷调查,下一句提到他们中的一半然后(then)拿到了混合橘子汁的酒,根据 then 可知完成问卷是在做游戏(playing)之前。故 C 项Before 正确。(8).【C8】(分数:2.00)A.expressB.measure C.e
29、vokeD.communicate解析:解析:空格要填入表 survey 设计目的的动词。A 项 express“表达”、C 项 evoke“唤起”或 D 项communicate“交流”自己对行为结果的关心程度都不会是调查的目的,逻辑上应该是 B 项 measure“衡量”关心程度。(9).【C9】(分数:2.00)A.actualB.moralC.future D.distant解析:解析:第 1 段末句提到这个研究结果的结论,即他们预见行为结果的能力。根据 foresee 可知这些结果是还没有发生的因此这里也要填入表将来的 C 项 future。(10).【C10】(分数:2.00)A.
30、drunk B.consciousC.upsetD.comfortable解析:解析:空格前的 make 为使役动词,them 指的是 participants,根据空格前的 received enough alcohol(得到足够多酒精),再结合实验目的是研究他们醉酒后的不同行为,故选 A 项 drunk“喝醉了的”。(11).【C11】(分数:2.00)A.largeB.regularC.moderateD.tiny 解析:解析:本句与上一句说明两组不同的人所喝的不同饮料,实验分组通常需要对比以得出结论,根据上一句的 enough,可知空格应填入相对应的 D 项 tiny“很少的”。(12
31、).【C12】(分数:2.00)A.getB.administer C.experienceD.endure解析:解析:本句中出现的 longer,stronger shocks 对应第 1 段末句的 how long andit should be。第 1 段末句提到,如果“对手”输了,参与者给予电击(gave the shock),并选择要进行的时长等。由此选择与 gave 同义的 B 项 administer“给予”。(13).【C13】(分数:2.00)A.experimentalB.opponentC.sober D.original解析:解析:本句中的 they 指代前文提到的对行

34、y far“到目标为止”可以放在最高级前作程度副词。(17).【C17】(分数:2.00)A.experimentB.trait C.resultD.theory解析:解析:上文提到醉酒的人是最好斗的人,下文也说这种人可以更冷静,因此空格处指的就是这种好斗性(aggressiveness),这是一种“特性”,故选 B 项 trait“特性”。(18).【C18】(分数:2.00)A.averageB.youngC.pessimisticD.impulsive 解析:解析:根据后一句的 theyre able to stay calmer,可知这类人需要保持冷静,因此可推断他们是“冲动”的人,故
