Studies have found, however, that in reality, lighting up has the【S2】______effect, causing long-term stress levels to rise, not fall. For those dependent on smoking, the only stress it【S3】______is the withdrawal between cigarettes.

The scientists’【S8】______was that the continuing smokers were dealing with uncomfortable cravings (渴望 ) between cigarettes multiple times a day, while the abstainers, after facing some initial withdrawal, had greater freedom from nicotine cravings and thus had【S9】______a frequent and significant source of stress. Other studies have also found that smokers experience higher levels of stress and【S10】______between cigarettes and lower levels over all when they quit.

选项
答案

解析
形容词辨析题。分析句子结构可知,此处应填入形容词作定语。根据下文的start up again可知,此处应该填入一个褒义词来形容香烟的作用,故calming“镇定的”符合句意。
