    It has long been known that high-calorie food can act as a balm (阵痛软膏) for anxiety and bad moods, but now a series of new studies published in Psychological Science【C1】________that high-calorie food may be a balm for economic anxiety, too, and one that we are prepared to apply whenever we perceive【C2】________in the world.
    In one of the experiments, people who were exposed to words suggesting tough times, like " disaster", "suffer" and "struggle", were prompted to eat more high-calorie food and【C3】________low-calorie food than a control group did—even though these words were in the background, on a poster, and not 【C4】________understood.

选项
答案N
解析 动词辨析题。根据句子结构可知，空格处缺少谓语动词。空格所在句前半部分提到“高卡路里食物能充当焦虑和坏心情的止痛药”，而此句后半部分说其也会成为经济焦虑的止痛药，由此可推知，后者是《心理科学》上发表的一系列新研究所显示的内容，故N项suggests“显示，表明”为答案。
