" If you can’t say something good about someone, sit right here by me," Alice Roosevelt Longworth, a self-proclaimed "hedonist," used to say. But it seems the greater pleasure comes from more【B1】______gossip.
New research finds that gossiping can be good for you【B2】______you have something nice to say. In a presentation in September, Jennifer Cole, a social psychologist, reported results【B3】______two related studies, both of which【B4】______that it’s in one’s self-interest to say " So-and-so’s second husband is【B5】______" rather than "She married that idiot?"
In the first study,【B6】______to measure a person’s short-term emotional【B7】______to gossiping, 140 men and women,【B8】______undergraduates, were asked to talk about a fictional person either positively or negatively.
The second study, which looked【B9】______the long-term effects of gossiping on well-being, had 160 participants, mostly female undergrads, fill out questionnaires about their【B10】______to gossip, their self-esteem and their【B11】______social support.
According to Dr. Cole, after speaking kindly of others, positive emotions increased【B12】______three percent, negative emotions were【B13】______six percent, and self-esteem rose five percent. These are not【B14】______numbers, as Cole is the first to admit. But it’s【B15】______one of the few times researchers have【B16】______anything beneficial to the silly art of gossip.
And there was one【B17】______positive result: whether kind or cruel, gossip was【B18】______with a greater sense of social support for the perpetuator. But does tittle-tattle really help【B19】______more friends? " It could be that people who gossip a lot think they have social support, but they don’t actually," Cole said, noting that previous research shows people【B20】______to dislike and mistrust gossips.
【B11】
选项
A、acquired
B、expressed
C、perceived
D、compared
答案
C
解析
动词辨析题。空格所需词在本段无法直接确定,而应根据最后一段内容做出选择。该段重点讨论了社会支持感的问题,指出人们往往误以为自己通过讲闲话可以吸引更多的朋友,而实际上未必如此。可见,本空所在段的研究,关注的应该是调查对象对自己社会支持状况的了解和认知。首先排除[D]compared“对比”,而原文并没有对两个事物进行比较的内容。[B]expressed“表达”,显然也不符合原文语义。而[A]acquired意为“习得的,养成的”,与其后的“社会支持”语义不能搭配,故该项也可排除。动词perceive表示“感知,察觉”,与最后一段的内容可以相呼应,符合原文语义,故答案为[C]。
