5.阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式.Do you make friends(61)easily (easy)?Do a wall-sit test and you'll find out.
Researchers at the University of Oxford did (62)astudy with 101participants aged between 18and 34.Participants first (63)filled (fill) out questionnaires about their social lives,and they were then asked (64)to press (press)against a wall with their(65)knees (knee) at right angles(直角)for as long as they could,(66)whichcan be really painful.
The results showed that the longer participants held the position,the bigger(67)theirouter network---or distant friends they contacted once or twice a month-was.That was(68)becausethe brain's painkilling system is associated (69)withboth pain tolerance and social bonding,which means that the more active this system is,the(70)better (good) you are at both.
分析 本文主要讲述通过一个测试来显示结交朋友与大脑的止痛系统相关.即:止痛系统越活跃,疼痛忍耐力和社会关系越好.
解答 61.easily 考查副词.make是动词,要用副词修饰,形容词easy的副词是easily.
62.a 考查冠词.study意为"调查;研究",是可数名词,单数形式前要加不定冠词a.
63.filled 考查动词时态.事情已经发生,要用一般过去时态.
64.to press 考查动词不定式.ask sb.to do sth.意为"让某人做某中",此处ask用了被动语态.
65.knees 考查名词复数.knee不止一个,要用复数形式.
66.which 考查定语从句.分析句子结构可知这是一个定语从句,先行词to press against a wall with their knees at right angles指事,在从句中作主语,用关系代词which.
67.their 考查代词.their指代participants.
68.because 考查连词."that was because从句"是一个句型,意为"那是因为…".
69.with 考查词语用法.be associated with意为"与…相联系",是固定搭配.
70.better 考查固定搭配."the more…,the more…"句型常表示"越…就越…",是一个复合句,其中前面的句子是状语从句,后面的句子是主句.the用在形容词或副词的比较级前,more代表形容词或副词的比较级.
