问题     Over the years, pregnant women have asked Donald Redelmeier, at Toronto’s Sunnybrook Hospital, about the dangers of diving, hot tubs, flying, mountaineering, cycling, bear attacks and all sorts of other exotic risks,【C1】________they never【C2】________road accidents. His new study, published in the Canadian Medical Association Journal,【C3】________they should.
    Dr. Redelmeier and his colleagues wanted to know【C4】________pregnancy makes a woman driver more likely to be【C5】________in a car crash. So they【C6】________data from the Ontario Health Insurance Plan, which records health visits for the Canadian province’s 13m residents. The researchers【C7】________women who, in the months before giving birth,【C8】________a hospital emergency unit after a car accident in which they had been driving. They【C9】________looked at those women’s hospital visits in the three years before becoming pregnant and for one year【C10】________the birth.
    They found that being pregnant made the women 42％ more likely to be in a serious car crash. The【C11】________peaked in the fourth month of pregnancy. It seems that being pregnant is about as【C12】________for drivers as having sleep apnoea, which【C13】________people to snore and choke themselves awake throughout the night, leaving them【C14】________during the day.
    Women’s driving seemed to be affected【C15】________how rich or poor or old they were, whether their pregnancy was【C16】________or straightforward, or whether they already had children.

The answer was "no".
【C6】
选项 A、examined
B、requested
C、collected
D、protected
答案A
解析 examined。本题考查动词辨析。四个选项分别为A项examined“考查，检查”；B项requested“请求，要求”；C项collected“收集”；D项protected“保护”。该段几个句子是有递进关系的。首先本空所在句子说so they________data；下面一句则说The researchers________；再下一句则提到They________looked at。虽然当中出现多个空格，但是这几个句子由于主语相同，且是连续说明，逻辑上为并列或者递进，所以几个谓语动词的含义是很接近的，从这点可以判断选项中的examined与looked at比较接近，同为“查看”的意思。另外，so they________data from the Ontario Health Insurance Plan意为“他们________‘安大略省健康保险计划’的数据”，暗示数据本来就存在，已经被统计，所以他们不需要再collected“收集”资料了，排除干扰选项collected。故本题答案为A项。
