问题    Using a computer or smartphone at night can cause us to【C1】______on the pounds, new research has revealed.
   The study found a link between blue light【C2】______—blue light is【C3】______by smartphones and tablets—and increased hunger. It found that exposure【C4】______the light increases hunger levels for several hours and even increases hunger levels【C5】______eating a meal.
   Results of the US study show that blue-enriched light exposure, compared with【C6】______light exposure, was【C7】______with an increase in hunger that began 15 minutes after light onset and was still【C8】______almost two hours after the meal. Blue light exposure has also already been shown to decreased【C9】______in the evening increasing the risk of insomnia.
   Study co-author Ivy Cheung, of Northwestern University, in Chicago, said: "A single three-hour expo sure to blue-enriched light in the evening【C10】______impacted hunger and glucose metabolism. " "These results are important because they suggest that【C11】______environmental light exposure for humans may represent a novel【C12】______of influencing food【C13】______patterns and metabolism."
   The study group【C14】______10 healthy adults with regular sleep and eating schedules who received【C15】______carbohydrate-rich meals. They completed a four-day trial【C16】______dim light conditions, 【C17】______involved exposure to less than 20 lux during 16 hours【C18】______and less than three lux during eight hours of sleep. On day three they were exposed to three hours of 260 lux, blue-enriched light starting 10.5 hours after waking up, and the effects were compared with dim light exposure on day two.
   Ms Cheung said more research is needed to determine the【C19】______of action【C20】______in the relationship between light exposure, hunger and metabolism.

选项 A、current
B、present
C、occurring
D、existed

答案B

解析 本题考查形容词辨析。that后面的句子修饰hunger,表示在被明亮蓝光照射15分钟后,饥饿感便会开始增加,并且在饭后近两小时内都会存在,and和still都暗示后面的内容是递进意义,因此B.present“存在的”为正确答案。current意为“目前的,现在的”,occur“发生”不用于进行时态,exist“存在”无被动形式,三者均不合适。
