Lie detectors are commonly【C1】______as emotion detectors, for their aim is to【C2】______bodily changes that contradict what a 28 says. The lie detector records changes【C4】______heart rate, breathing, blood pressure, and the electrical【C5】______of the skin. In the first part of the【C6】______, you are electronically connected to the ma chine and【C7】______a few neutral questions("what is your name?" etc). Your physical reactions serve【C8】______the standard for evaluating what comes【C9】______. Then you are presented with a few【C10】______questions among the neutral ones("When did you rob the hank?" ). The idea is that if you are【C11】______, your body will reveal the truth, even if you try to【C12】______it. Your heart rate and breathing will change【C13】______as you respond to the question.

本题考查对上下文的理解和词义的辨析。此处行文做了转折,因为使用了转折连词but,从而推知此处意为“测谎仪不可靠”。下文具体阐释了“人们在不同情结状态下测谎仪测出的效果相同”。A 项reliable 意为“可靠的”;B 项usable 意为“可用的”;C 项reasonable 意为“合理的”;D 项comprehensible 意为“可以理解的”。
