问题     Mr. Faugel was convinced that student nervousness had affected their scores; to reduce the anxiety of these students who had already been tested, he gave 22 of them a beta blocker before readministration of the test. Their scores improved significantly. The other 8 students (who did not receive the beta blockers) improved only slightly. Second-time test-takers nationwide had average improvements which were similar to those in Faugel’s non-beta blocker group. Beta blockers are prescription drugs which have been around for 25 years. These medications, which interfere with the effects of adrenalin, have been used for heart conditions and for minor stress such as stage fright. Now they are used for test anxiety. These drags seem to help test-takers who have low scores because of test fright, but not those who do not know the material. Since there can be side effects from these beta blockers, physicians are not ready to prescribe them routinely for all test-takers.
"Re-administration" in this passage refers to giving ______.

选项 A、the test again to people without administering beta blockers
B、the test again to both groups after beta blockers have been administered to one group
C、the test to both groups of test-takers and then giving them beta blockers
D、the beta blockers without retesting

答案B

解析 见文中:…to reduce the anxiety of these students who had already been tested,he gave 22 of them a beta blocker before readministration of the test.为减轻这些已参加过测试的学生的焦虑,他给其中22人服用了β-受体阻滞药,然后又给他们做了次测试。因此选项B.“一组人(22人)服用β-受体阻滞药后再给两组做了次测试”是正确答案。
