A study of nearly 1, 000(2)______ of identical and non-identical twins found genes(3)______ half the personality traits that make people happy(4)______ factors such as relationships, health and careers are responsible for the rest of our well-being.

选项
A、trying
B、try
C、managing
D、manage
答案
A
解析
动词辨析题。根据句子结构和语法,此处应为动名词作researchers的后置定语,故排除[B]和[D]。[A]trying表示“尽力做某事,但未成功”,[C]managing表示“设法做某事,并成功”,根据这句话的意思,应该是研究人员目前还没有找到“人为什么会郁闷”的更为合理的解释,故选[A]。
