问题     One problem with much personality research is that it examines and rates whatever traits the researchers are interested in at the time: conscientiousness, emotional stability and so on. But when we 【C1】______someone in real life, we don’t consider an array of personality measures; instead, we focus on a few【C2】______ traits that sum up the【C3】______of the person. One is particularly anxious, another is【C4】______ reliable, yet another is a "live wire". While we might hesitate to characterize individuals along every personality dimension, we can accurately identify them【C5】______ their key characteristics.
    In research at Stanford University, Daryl Ben and Andrea Allen tested this idea by first asking college students【C6】______they were consistently or only occasionally friendly and then 【C7】______their parents and friends how friendly the students were. Ben and Allen observed how the students acted under two specific conditions:【C8】______they spoke in small groups and how quickly they 【C9】______a conversation with strangers. The researchers found that students who considered themselves consistently friendly were indeed more likely to be【C10】______ in both circumstances than were those who【C11】______ themselves only intermittently friendly. 【C12】______that, the friendliness ratings by parents and peers of the students who were consistently friendly were very similar【C13】______the students’ self-ratings and【C14】______accurately how they would act in two conditions. It seems that we can【C15】______ourselves accurately and that others can rate us very well on traits【C16】______serve as our trademarks.
    To predict how someone will behave in a given situation, we must【C17】______ the requirements of the situation with the trademark characteristics of the person【C18】______. People who are strongly of one type or【C19】______should react predictably in a given situation,【C20】______the behavior of other, more diffuse personalities is harder to anticipate.
【C8】

选项 A、how much
B、how often
C、how well
D、how long

答案A

解析 考查语法结构+上下文语义。后面的连词and连接并列结构,根据下文提示how quickly they ______ a conversation可以判断出空格所在部分的大意应该是“他们在小团体里面说话的多少”。所以正确答案是A.how much。how often“多久”表频率,how well“多好”,how long“多长”,均与题意不符,故排除。
