选项 A、superior
B、attributable
C、parallel
D、resistant

答案B

解析 考查形容词辨析+上下文逻辑关系。空格处所在句子用分号隔开,分号代表前后两句话讨论的是一个问题,有可能相同也有可能相反。分号前说免疫系统对于女性来说的作用,后文是用男性来进行比较,说免疫系统对于男性的变化没什么作用。前后是相反的观点,所以免疫系统对女性是有影响的。superior to意为“优于,胜于”;attributable to意为“归因于…”; parallel to意为“平行于,与…平等”;resistant to意为“抵抗”。综合分析各选项,只有attributable符合句意,故选B。
