问题     Mr. Faugel was convinced that student nervousness had affected their scores; to reduce the anxiety of these students who had already been tested, he gave 22 of them a beta blocker before readministration of the test. Their scores improved significantly. The other 8 students (who did not receive the beta blockers) improved only slightly. Second-time test-takers nationwide had average improvements which were similar to those in Faugel’s non-beta blocker group. Beta blockers are prescription drugs which have been around for 25 years. These medications, which interfere with the effects of adrenalin, have been used for heart conditions and for minor stress such as stage fright. Now they are used for test anxiety. These drags seem to help test-takers who have low scores because of test fright, but not those who do not know the material. Since there can be side effects from these beta blockers, physicians are not ready to prescribe them routinely for all test-takers.
According to the passage, ______.

选项 A、all people can take beta blockers
B、beta blockers are widely prescribed
C、beta blockers work only on test anxiety
D、beta blockers work only to improve test scores if the test-taker truly knows the material

答案D

解析 根据对以上几题的解析,可排除选项A和B。又根据文中These drugs seem to help test-takers who have low scores because of test fright,but not those who do not know the material.(此类药似乎有助于那些由于怯场而导致分数低的考试者,却不能帮助那些不了解考试内容的人。)可推断出D是正确答案。
