The researchers monitored the hearts of 13 men and women as they breathed in air【C3】________into a small chamber. In some【C4】________the air included smoke from candles in a second room. The volunteers didn’t know which type of air they were breathing, but when it included candle smoke, their heart rate variability【C5】________.
Everyone’s heart rate varies【C6】________all the time, beating a little bit faster when we breathe in than when we breathe out This is perfectly healthy and a sign that the brain is【C7】________and able to regulate the heart But this variation【C8】________as we get older and if we【C9】________heart problems. In the study, it was increased by【C10】________candle smoke.
Researcher Christina Isaxon said the concentration of smoke【C11】________during the study was similar to that created by a candlelit dinner. As the volunteers could not see the candles and weren’t told what they were breathing, the effect could not be explained【C12】________by the calming effect of candlelight.
Dr Isaxon believed that tiny particles of the candle smoke could be responsible for the beneficial effects. These particles are【C13】________regulating the heart’s rhythm and in sending messages between cells in the body. More salts are produced when a【C14】________is still. The study did not find any【C15】________health effects of the smoke—【C16】________she admitted she did not ’make a huge effort’ to find any.
Soot, black powder in the smoke, from lit candles has been【C17】________health problems in the past. The American Chemical Society has warned that common wax candles release【C18】________harmful chemicals linked to cancer and other illnesses. It recommends using beeswax.

【C17】
选项
A、prepared for
B、made up for
C、blamed for
D、appreciated for
答案
C
解析
下句指出常见的蜡烛会释放有害化学物质。由此判断:煤烟会导致健康问题。C项blamed for“被……责备”代入后可指煤烟被看成是健康问题的成因。A、B、D三项置于该句后。分别表示“为健康问题准备煤烟”、“用煤烟来弥补健康问题”及“煤烟因为健康问题而被赞赏”。语义均不能满足本句语义要求。
