We focus on the cognition of lying—how hard it is to lie,【B5】______we can judge by how long it takes a person to【B6】______a false statement. There’s a lot of evidence suggesting lying is more【B7】______demanding than telling the truth.

选项
A、adulthood
B、adolescence
C、childhood
D、maturity
答案
A
解析
本题考查名词词义辨析。四个选项分别为:[A]adulthood“成年时期”;[B]adolescence“青少年时期”;[C]childhood“童年时期,少年时期”;[D]maturity“成熟”。根据上下文可知,本句是指前额皮质直到某个时期才能完全发育成熟,可见这里应填一个表示时期的词。按逻辑关系,选项[A]和[B]都有可能是正确答案,但因young adulthood是固定搭配,所以[A]为正确答案。
