问题     Some people’s ears produce wax like busy little bees. This can be a problem even though earwax(耳垢)appears to serve an important purpose.
    Experts say it protects and cleans the ear. It【B1】______dirt and other matter and keeps insects out. Doctors think it might also help【B2】______infectious diseases. And the waxy oil keeps ears from getting too dry. So earwax is good. And there are two kinds. Most people of European or African【B3】______have the "wet" kind: thick and sticky. East Asians commonly have "dry" earwax.
    But you can have too much of a good thing. Some people may have too much wax in their ear canal. Earwax is【B4】______expelled; it falls out of the ear or gets washed away. But【B5】______wax can harden and form a blockage that【B6】______sound waves and reduces hearing. People can also cause a blockage when they try to clean out their ears—but only push the wax deeper inside. Earwax【B7】______is sometimes necessary. But you have to use a safe method or you could do a lot of damage.
    Experts at N.I.H., the National Institutes of Health, suggest some ways to treat【B8】______earwax yourself. They say the wax can be softened with mineral oil or ear drops. Another way to remove wax is known as irrigation. With the head upright,【B9】______the outer part of the ear. Gently pull upward to straighten the ear canal. Use an injection【B10】______to gently direct water against the wall of the ear canal. Then turn the head to the side to let the water out.
【B6】
选项
答案interferes with
解析 根据空格前的that可知这是一个定义从句，此处需要动词或动词词组充当从句的谓语。interfere with意为“干扰”。由于先行词是a blockage，因此要用第三人称单数形式，加-s。
