问题      Humans are unique in the extent to which they can reflect on themselves and others.  Humans are able to 【C1】______ , to think in abstract terms, to reflect on the future. A meaningless, 【C2】______ world is an insecure world.  We do not like extensive insecurity. When it 【C3】______ to human behavior we infer meaning and 【C4】______ to make the behavior understandable. 【C5】______ all this means is that people develop "quasi theories" of human behavior, that is, theories that are not developed in a/an 【C6】______ scientific manner. When doing so, people believe they know 【C7】______ humans do the things they do.
     Let’s consider an example.  In the United States people have been 【C8】______ with tile increasing a mount of crime for several years. The extent of crime bothers us;  we ourselves could be victims.  But it 【C9】______ bothers us that people behave in such ways. Why can such things happen? We develop quasi theories. We 【C10】______ concerned about the high crime rate, but we now believe we 【C11】______ it: our criminal justice system is 【C12】______ ; people have grown selfish and inconsiderate as our moral values weaken 【C13】______ the influence of liberal ideas; too many people are 【C14】______ drugs. These explanations suggest possible solutions. 【C15】______ the courts; out more people in jails as examples to other lawbreaker.  There is now hope that the problem of crime can be solved if only we 【C16】______ these solutions. Again, tile world is no longer meaningless nor 【C17】______ so threatening.
     These quasi theories 【C18】______ serve a very important function for us.  But how accurate are they? How 【C19】______ will the suggested solutions be? These questions must be answered with 【C20】______ to how people normally go about developing or attaining their quasi theories of human behavior.
【C6】
选项 A、theoretic
B、subjective
C、conclusive
D、objective
答案D
解析 连词衔接题。句意为：也即，这些理论的形成不客观、不科学。根据句子意思，作者将这种准理论解释为“不以客观、科学的方法得出的理论”，所以只有选项D 合乎题意。选项A theoretic表示“理论上的”；选项B subjective“主观的，个人的”，用在否定的句子里正好与文章意思相反；选项C conclusive表示“结论性的，决定性的”，意思也不通。只有选项D objective“客观的，有依据的，无个人偏见的”，放在句子中合乎文意。
