ite

【答案】A

【解析】根據本句句內邏輯關係，“it turns out that hugs…”説明擁抱還有其他結果。因此，前文的邏輯關係應該為“除此以外”，結合選項，des(除此之外)最為合適。

rior

【答案】C

【解析】本題實為邏輯關係題。根據句子前後結構“helping you feel close and _____(2)”，我們可以判斷，由於空格處與前面內容通過and連接，説明我們要選擇一個單詞與feel close同義，並且要與後面介詞to 連用。因此，通過對於四個選項含義判斷，C選項有“關聯的”含義最為符合。

ce

【答案】B

【解析】此題為固定搭配。“a host of”表示大量的。其他選項搭配不合理。

【答案】A

【解析】根據題幹信息“a warm embrace might even help you _____(4)getting sick this winter.”中，出現“even”，表示“甚至”，説明此句話與上一句話存在遞進的邏輯關係。上一句話的語義表示“擁抱可以帶來大量的好處”，因此，這句話也應該表示擁抱的好處。根據四個選項含義，d(避免)et(忘記)ll(回憶)(保持)，A選項“避免生病”最符合文意。

lving

【答案】D

【解析】本題考查現在分詞做後置定語，需要選擇一個現在分詞修飾前面的“study”，因此，結合四個選項ecting(收集)cting(影響)ing(引導)lving(涉及、捲入)，根據句子含義，應該表達“關於涉及400人”的研究。因此正確選項應為D

【答案】A

【解析】本題為固定搭配。根據句義“examined the effects of perceived social support and the receipt of hugs_____(6)the participants'…”考查固定搭配“examined the effects…on sth”因此，本題正確選項為A。

sed

【答案】D

【解析】根據句義“common cold after being_____(7)to the virus.”“通常感冒是在。。。細菌之後發生的.。”結合選項含義ted(致力於)acted(吸引)(丟失)sed(暴露於)，D選項“暴露在細菌中…”符合文意。

【答案】C

【解析】本題為固定搭配。 along with(和。。。相處的好) across with(償付) down with(得病，感染) out with(出版，提出)，結合語境，根據後面與cold(感冒)搭配，C選項“得感冒”搭配最為合理。

ulated

【答案】D

【解析】本題為動詞與賓語從句搭配問題。根據原文“the researchers_____(9)that the stress-reducing effects of hugging _____(10)about 32 percent of that beneficial effect.”動作的主語是“研究人員”，連接後面的賓語從句“擁抱減小壓力的作用”，並且有數據支撐。從選項含義ined(想像)ed(否認)ted(懷疑)ulated(計算，推測)來看，賓語從句部分應為研究人員計算推測出的結果。因此，選項D符合要求。

ired

【答案】C

【解析】本題為動詞含義考查。根據文章內容，“the stress-reducing effects of hugging _____(10)about 32 percent of that beneficial effect.”本題同樣考查研究人員做出的研究結果，因此，結合選項含義ed(服務)ored(存儲)ained(解釋)ired(要求)，C選項“解釋”符合語境要求。

【答案】D

【解析】本題為邏輯關係題。(因此，表示因果關係)l(仍然，表示強調關係)er(相反，表示對比關係)(甚至，表示遞進關係)根據文章上下文邏輯，下文是對上文做進一步説明，因此選擇遞進關係比較符合邏輯關係。D為正確選項。

s

【答案】B

【解析】形容詞與名詞搭配問題。根據語境“the ones who felt greater social support and received more frequent hugs had less severe_____(12)”所選詞要與severe構成合理搭配，再結合前文語境是關於對於擁抱實驗的結果。因此，toms(症狀)符合語境要求。正確選項為B。

mized

【答案】B

【解析】本題為形容詞修飾。根據原文"Hugging protects people who are under stress from the _____(13)risk for colds that's usually _____(14)with stress,"，需要選擇一個形容詞來修飾risk。在選項中，lighted(突出的)eased(增加的)rolled(被控制的)mized(最小的)，對比選項含義，B“增加的風險”更符合原文語境。

ared

【答案】C

【解析】此題為固定搭配題。A 和B選項不可以和with連接。ciated可以和with連接，意為“與。。。有關聯”。ared和with連接表示“和。。相比”不符合文章要求。因此，本題正確選項為C.

rd

【答案】B

【解析】此題考查動賓搭配。根據原文“Hugging is a marker of intimacy and help _____(15)the feeling…”，需要選擇一個動詞能夠和後文的“the feeling”搭配。分析選項含義：ss(評估)rate(產生)rate(緩和)rd(記錄)，四個選項中，B“generate the feeling”產生感覺搭配最為合理。因此正選為B。

the name the form the face the way of

【答案】C

【解析】此題為短語搭配題。分析選項含義 the name of(以…為名) the form of(以…的形式) the face of(面對…) the way of(以…的方式)，結合文章語境，應為“面對困難”搭配最為合理。因此，正確選項為C。

rn

【答案】A

【解析】此題為固定搭配題。即：attribute sth to sth .因此正確選項為A

l

【答案】B

【解析】此題為邏輯關係題。選項含義ss(除非)use(因為)gh(雖然)l(直到。。。才)。結合原文語境，“often called "the bonding hormone"_____(18)it promotes attachment in relationships,”(經常被稱之為“形成親密關係的荷爾蒙”….它促進了關係的依賴。)從本句來看，前後文屬於因果邏輯關係。因此正確選項為B

eases

【答案】A

【解析】本題為動詞辨析。選項含義為ins(仍然)ges(出現)shes(消失)eases(減少)結合語境信息“But some of it _____(19)in the brain, ”C和D選項跟文章含義相反。而B 選項只表示一種動作。A選項表示它仍然在大腦裏存在，最符合文章要求，因此正確選項為A。

where it _____(20)mood, behavior and physiology.

uences

【答案】D

【解析】本題為動詞辨析。選項含義為riences(經歷)ines(結合)ifies(替某人辯護，證明合理)uences(影響)。根據原文語境，“where it _____(20)mood, behavior and physiology.”能夠搭配後面並列的三個賓語“情緒、行為、和生理”，只有D“影響”因此正確選項為D。
