Why do we have the political opinions we have and not another? How and why do our【C1】________change? The answers to these questions are complex. Differences of opinion are shaped by【C2】________life experiences: where you live; how you were【C3】________; whether you’re rich or poor. Emotion comes into the picture, and emotion has a【C4】________basis, at least in part. All of this and more combines into a mixed dish【C5】________a fixed recipe, even if many of the ingredients are known.
Surprisingly, a recent experimental psychology suggests, our political beliefs may have【C6】________to do with a specific aspect of our biological makeup. In the mid-2000s, a political scientist【C7】________the neuroscientist Read Montague with a radical proposal—political orientation might be partly inherited, and might be【C8】________by our physiological reactivity to threats. To test their theory, they wanted Montague, who【C9】________the Human Neuroimaging Laboratory at Virginia Tech, to scan the brains of subjects【C10】________ they looked at a variety of images—including ones displaying disgusting scenes【C11】________ badly injured animals and dirty toilets—to see whether neural responses showed any【C12】________ with political ideology.
Montague【C13】________ laughed at the idea, but the team returned with studies to argue their case, and eventually he signed on. 【C14】________ the data began rolling in, any skepticism about the project quickly【C15】________. The subjects, 83 in total, were first shown a random【C16】________ of neutral and emotionally provocative pictures—this second category contained both positive and negative images—while【C17】________ brain scans. Then they filled out a questionnaire seeking their views on hot-button political and social issues, in order to classify their general outlook on a【C18】________ from extremely liberal to extremely conservative. As Montague mapped the neuroimaging data against ideology, he recalls, "my jaw dropped." The brains of liberals and conservatives reacted in wildly different ways to【C19】________ pictures: Both groups reacted but different brain networks were stimulated. Just by looking at the subjects’ neural responses, in fact, Montague could【C20】________ with more than 95 percent accuracy whether they were liberal or conservative.
【C12】
选项
A、similarity
B、correlation
C、difference
D、trouble
答案
B
解析
本题需填入一个名词,满足句意“检测受试者神经反应与显示任何政治意识形态的________”。根据本段开头前两句的句意,本段主要探讨的问题是政治倾向和生物学之间的关系,实验中观察受试者的神经反应也是为了检验这一结果,所以空格处所填名词应体现两者之间是有“联系”的,四个选项中只有选项[B]correlation“相互关系,联系”符合句意,故为正确答案。
