It is our experiences that determine which colors we prefer,【C2】______a new study, which was the first to【C3】______ test the long-suspected idea that people like the colors of the things they like. In their【C4】______ to understand why people like certain colors, scientists have【C5】______on evolution. The main theory is that we like colors that are【C6】______ to things that are healthy and promote survival. A blue sky, for example, indicates calm weather, which【C7】______ explain why blue tends to be a (n)【C8】______ color across cultures. Dark yellows and oranges,【C9】______, invoke urine, vomit and rotting food.【C10】______expected, there is usually a drop in preference【C11】______ these colors in studies around the world.
【C12】______ those general trends, there are wide-ranging differences among individuals about which colors they like. As part of a【C13】______of experiments, the researchers showed slide shows of colored objects to a group of【C14】______.

【C17】
选项
A、marked
B、ranked
C、recorded
D、soared
答案
B
解析
动词辨析题。句意同上。该句中who引导定语从句修饰先行词Berkeley students,指最看重学校团队精神的学生,把选项代人句中,rank“属于某等级”最符合句意,为正确选项。mark“做标记”,record“记载,记录”和soar“高飞;暴涨”均不符合语境,故排除。
