Although "lie detectors" are widely used by governments, police departments and businesses, the results are not always accurate. Lie detectors are commonly【C1】______as emotion detectors, for their aim is to【C2】______bodily changes that contradict what a【C3】______says. The lie detector records changes【C4】______heart rate, breathing, blood pressure, and the electrical【C5】______of the skin. In the first part of the【C6】______you are electronically connected to the machine and【C7】______a few neutral questions("What is your name?" etc. ). Your physical reactions serve【C8】______the standard for evaluating what comes【C9】______Then you are presented with a few【C10】______questions among the neutral ones( "When did you rob the bank?" ). The idea is that if you are【C11】______, your body will reveal the truth, even if you try to【C12】______it. Your heart rate and breathing will change【C13】______as you respond to the questions.
That is the theory, but psychologists have found that lie detectors are simply not【C14】______. Since most physical changes are the same across【C15】______emotions, lie detectors cannot tell【C16】______you are feeling angry, nervous or excited.【C17】______people may be tense and nervous【C18】______the whole procedure. They may react physiologically to a certain word( "bank" )not because they robbed it, but because they recently used a bad check. In either【C19】______, the machine will record a "lie".
On the other hand, some practiced liars can lie【C20】______hesitation, so the reverse mistake is also common.
【C14】
选项
A、reliable
B、usable
C、reasonable
D、comprehensible
答案
A
解析
本题考查对上下文的理解和词义辨析。此处有转折连词“but”,所以行文做了转折,从而推知此处意为“测谎仪不可靠”。下文具体阐释了“人们在不同情绪状态下测谎仪测出的效果相同”。reliable可靠的,可信赖的;usable可用的,合用的,便于使用的;reasonable合理的,有道理的;comprehensible可以理解的。故选A。
