Why do people read negative Internet comments and do other things that will obviously be painful? Because humans have an inherent need to【C1】______uncertainty, according to a recent study in Psychological Science. The new research reveals that the need to know is so strong that people will【C2】______to satisfy their curiosity even when it is clear the answer will【C3】______.
In a series of experiments, behavioral scientists at the University of Chicago and the Wisconsin School of Business tested students’ willingness to【C4】______themselves to unpleasant stimuli in an effort to satisfy curiosity. For one【C5】______, each participant was shown a pile of pens that the researcher claimed were from a previous experiment. The twist? Half of the pens would【C6】______an electric shock when clicked.
Twenty-seven students were told which pens were electrified; another twenty-seven were told only that some were electrified【C7】______left alone in the room, the students who did not know which ones would shock them clicked more pens and incurred more shocks than the students who knew that would【C8】______Subsequent experiments reproduced this effect with other stimuli, 【C9】______the sound of fingernails on a chalkboard and photographs of disgusting insects.
The drive to【C10】______is deeply rooted in humans, much the same as the basic drives for【C11】______or shelter, says Christopher Hsee of the University of Chicago. Curiosity is often considered a good instinct—it can【C12】______new scientific advances, for instance—but sometimes such【C13】______can backfire. The insight that curiosity can drive you to do【C14】______things is a profound one.
Unhealthy curiosity is possible to【C15】______, however. In a final experiment, participants who were encouraged to【C16】______how they would feel after viewing an unpleasant picture were less likely to【C17】______to see such an image. These results suggest that imagining the【C18】______of following through on one’s curiosity ahead of time can help determine【C19】______it is worth the endeavor. " Thinking about long-term【C20】______is key to reducing the possible negative effects of curiosity, "Hsee says. In other words, don’t read online comments.
【C8】
选项
A、change
B、continue
C、disappear
D、happen
答案
D
解析
空格位于定语从句中,说明第一类学生的特点;空格所在处的主语that指代的是which ones would shock them,即“哪些笔是带电的”。本段首句提到,实验对象有两类学生,一类知道哪些笔是带电的,另一类只知道有些笔带电,但不知道具体是哪些笔。本句第一个who引导的定语从句指代了第二类学生,故空格所在处应指第一类学生,即知道哪些笔是带电的,故他们是知道“摁下笔被电”是会“发生”的,故选happen。
