问题 What is the passage mainly about?
The word "afflict" in the third sentence of the first paragraph most probably means ______.

选项 A、benefit
B、cause suffering to
C、teach
D、draw attention from

答案B

解析本题考查考生根据上下文猜测词义的能力。afflict所在的句子告诉我们，其意义不可能是benefit或teach。afflict所在句子的前一句提到人们害怕艾滋病人，而冒险心理可能导致致命的后果。这令我们联想：艾滋病危险，对社会有危害。所以选项B最有可能是afflict的意义解释。
