【答案】

【1】Although/Though

2which/that

3between

4because

5what

【解析】

试题分析:

【1】Although/Though。考查连词。句意:她是个很美的女人但她的脸上还是有一个疤痕。文中没有but这样的转折词,所以句首应该是Although或者Though。

2which/that。考查定语从句。covered nearly the whole right side of her face. 前面应该有一个关系代词指这个伤疤。所以关系代词应为which/that。

3between。考查固定搭配。between and是在……中间。所以填between。

4because。考查连词。句意:每个人都很害怕,因为火势已经失去了控制。所以应填because。

5what。考查代词。句意是我永远不会悔恨我所做的,是宾语从句,所以填what。

【题目】Women are friendly. But men are more competitive. Why? Researchers have found its all down to the hormone oxytocin(荷尔蒙催生素). Although known as the love hormone, it affects the sexes differently.

Women tend to be social in their behavior. They often share with others. But men tend to be competitive. They are trying to improve their social status, said Professor Ryan.

Generally, people believe that the hormone exytocin is let out in our body in various social situations and our body creates a large amount of it during positive social interaction(互动)such as falling in love or giving birth.

But in a previous experiment Professor Ryan found that the hormone is also let out in our body during negative social interactions such as envy.

Further researches showed that in men the hormone oxytocin improves the ability to recognize competitive relationships, but in women it raises the ability to recognize friendship.

Professor Ryans recent experiment used 62 men and women aged 20 to 37.

Half of the participants(参与者)received oxytocin. The other half received placebo(安慰剂).

After a week, the two groups switched with participants. They went through the same procedure with the other material.

Following each treatment, they were shown some video pictures with different social interactions. Then they were asked to analyze the relationships by answering some questions. The questions were about telling friendship from competition. And their answers should be based on gestures, body language and facial expressions.

The results indicated that, after treatment with oxytocin, mens ability to correctly recognize competitive relationships improved, but in women it was the ability to correctly recognize friendship that got better.

Professor Ryan thus concluded:Our experiment proves that the hormone oxytocin can raise peoples abilities to better distinguish different social interactions. And the behavior differences between men and women are caused by biological factor(因素)that are mainly hormonal.”
