Question

When tension ________ in a relationship between two people, a frequent way of dealing with this is to send messages through a third person.

A．arouses

B．arises

C．rises

D．raises

Answer 1

B

考查词义辨析。arouses唤醒，arises 出现，rises 上升，raises 提高，句意：当两个人之间的关系出现紧张的时候，处理这种情况一种经常的方式就是通过第三个人来传达信息。故选B。
