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.
Beta blockers work on some physical and emotional symptoms because they ______.

选项 A、fool a person into a healthier stance
B、interfere with the effects of adrenalin
C、produce side effects worse than the symptoms
D、primarily change human thought processes

答案B

解析 见文中:These medications,which interfere with the effects of adrenalin…这些用来舒缓心境和较小压力如怯场的药物会干扰肾上腺素……,可知B为答案。
