But across two large empirical analyses and four experiments, the researchers showed that a second emotion—fear—is also【B6】________, mediating the【B7】________on consumption patterns.
Analyzing data from 2009 through 2014 from Google Flu Trends, and Nielsen Consumer panels, they found that people bought more items when the【B8】________of influenza was high in their state, and they【B9】________products that were familiar.

选项
A、similar to
B、such as
C、as for
D、along with
答案
[B]
解析
本题考查短语辨析。四个选项分别为[A]similar to“和……相似”;[B]such as“例如”;[C]as for“关于,至于”;[D]along,with“沿着,连同……一起”。由上文可知,在流感发病率高时,人们更倾向于买熟悉品牌的产品,而这些反应也适用于非食品产品,空格16后面的内容为非食品产品的例子。故选项[B]正确。
