As Valentine’s Day approaches, many single people begin to feel a little sorry for themselves. On a day【C1】________by couples, this can lead to feelings of【C2】________and loneliness, say researchers.【C3】________, don’t worry—they say it could【C4】________be good for you.
"On the【C5】________of everyday life, it is understandable how something as personally【C6】________as loneliness could be regarded as a plague on human existence," John Cacioppoat and his fellow researchers at the University of Chicago write in the journal Cognition & Emotion. "Research【C7】________the past decade suggests a very different view of loneliness than suggested by personal experience, one in which loneliness【C8】________a variety of adaptive functions in【C9】________habitats."
"Although it may feel like loneliness has no redeeming【C10】________. it promotes behavior change to increase the likelihood of the survival of one’s genes. The pain of loneliness served to【C11】________us to renew the connections we needed to ensure survival and to promote social trust, cohesiveness, and collective action."
However, there was also bad news—researchers found the ’lonely’ are viewed more negatively in terms of their psychosocial functioning and attractiveness.
"In a social environment non-lonely people form a negative impression【C12】________lonely people, which then affects their behavior and【C13】________the lonely individual’s perceived isolated existence," the researchers wrote. "【C14】________. individuals rated opposite-gender partners who they expected to be lonely as less sociable, and【C15】________towards them in a less sociable【C16】________than they did toward partners they expected not to be-lonely."
The team even say loneliness could be behind many sports fans decision to【C17】________their team. "The emergence of a collective connectedness factor underlying loneliness, therefore, suggests that we may have evolved the capacity for and motivation to form relationships not only with other individuals but also with groups (e.g., a Chicago Cubs or Boston Red Sox fan), with the【C18】________being the promotion of co-operation in【C19】________conditions (e.g., competition, warfare). The identification with and investments in the group, in turn, may increase the likelihood of the continuity of the group, its members, and their individual genetic【C20】________."
【C6】
选项
A、pleasing
B、surprising
C、puzzling
D、disgusting
答案
D
解析
后面提到could be regarded as a plague(被看作是一种瘟疫),瘟疫作为一种致命性的传染病通常人见人怕、令人厌恶,可以推断空格处所填单词应含有令人厌恶之意。D项disgusting意为“令人厌恶的”,符合语义逻辑。A项pleasing“令人愉快的”与后面所说的plague逻辑上矛盾。B项surprising和C项puzzling表示“令人惊讶的”和“令人困惑的”,均不能体现出瘟疫的特点。
