31、”的结论。(2).【C2】（分数：2.00）A.behind B.toC.amongD.with解析：解析：上文谈到蜡烛燃烧的烟雾有利于心率，空格句试着解释原因。空格后 the effect 是上句谈到的烟雾对心率的影响，A 项 behind 与之搭配指“这一效果背后的原因”。(3).【C3】（分数：2.00）A.pouredB.pumped C.blownD.dumped解析：解析：句中空格处过去分词应表明研究者在监测志愿者的心脏时对受试者所呼吸的气体(air)所采取的措施。B 项 pumped“给打气；用泵输送”代入后，可指研究者为控制实验环境往志愿者所在的小房间(a small cham

32、ber)里注入气体。(4).【C4】（分数：2.00）A.waysB.areasC.respectsD.cases 解析：解析：下句提到，志愿者们不知道他们呼吸的是哪种空气，可判断研究者向小房间输入了不同类型的气体。因此，应认为空格后的内容只是其中的一些情况。D 项 cases 代入后可组成 insome cases 的固定表达，表示“有时候，在某些情况下”。(5).【C5】（分数：2.00）A.deterioratedB.recoveredC.improved D.injured解析：解析：首段提到吸入蜡烛燃烧产生的烟雾能给心率带来有利的影响。由此可判断当志愿者呼吸的空气中含有蜡烛烟雾时，他

33、们的心率变异性会有所改善。C 项 improved“改善，好转”代入后可指心率变异性增高，语义符合语篇逻辑。(6).【C6】（分数：2.00）A.evidentlyB.habituallyC.consciouslyD.naturally 解析：解析：现在分词短语 beating a littleout 的意思是“心跳在吸入空气时比呼出时快”，作伴随状语，说明心率变化的情况。由下一句 This is perfectly healthy 可知人们的心跳在吸入空气时比呼出快，这是自然、正常的事情。故选 D 项 naturally“自然地”。(7).【C7】（分数：2.00）A.elasticB.al

34、ert C.awakeD.open解析：解析：根据 healthy 的语义，可知心率变化是人脑健康的积极反应，从而让大脑进一步地调节心脏(isable to regulate the heart)。B 项 alert“警惕的，机警的”代入后，句意为“大脑警觉性高，有能力调节心脏”。(8).【C8】（分数：2.00）A.vanishesB.hidesC.falls D.ceases解析：解析：根据自然规律，可推测“当人们变老的时候”，心率变化的生理机能会有所减退。C 项falls“下降”代入后指心率变异性会随着年龄的增加而下降。(9).【C9】（分数：2.00）A.develop B.treat

35、C.observeD.prevent解析：解析：空格处填入的动词，需能衔接 we 和 heart problems，且与 we get older 并列。A 项develop 搭配 heart problems 意为“患(上)心脏病”，符合语义。(10).【C10】（分数：2.00）A.measuringB.emittingC.inhaling D.smelling解析：解析：从第二段中提到的研究来看，吸入蜡烛烟雾会增高心率变异性。C 项 inhaling 意为“吸入，吸气”，可对应上文 breathing 一词。(11).【C11】（分数：2.00）A.condensedB.disperse

36、dC.generated D.polluted解析：解析：基于 was similar to 的语义，可认为研究者比较了“研究中的烟雾浓度”(the con-centration of smokeduring the study)和“烛光晚餐所释放的烟雾浓度”(that created by acandlelit dinner)。C 项 generated“产生，生成”能对应 that 后的 created 一词，代入后指“研究中蜡烛燃烧产生的烟雾的浓度”。(12).【C12】（分数：2.00）A.throughB.away C.offD.along解析：解析：在该项研究中，志愿者看不到蜡烛，

37、也未被告知所呼吸的气体，因此不能把“烛光具有镇静效果”(the calming effect of candlelight)看作是改善心率的原因。B 项 away 置于 ex-plained 后，意为“为辩解”，代入后与谓语中的 could not be 一起表达“不能把当作理由”之意。其他三个选项不与 explain 搭配。(13).【C13】（分数：2.00）A.specialized inB.guided toC.controlled overD.involved in 解析：解析：既然蜡烛烟雾中含的微小颗粒对心脏有好处，那么它们对心率应该具有调节作用(regulating the he

38、art“s rhythm)。D 项 involved in 意为“参与；与相关联”，代入后可指烟雾中的微小颗粒帮助调节心率,语义符合要求。(14).【C14】（分数：2.00）A.flame B.roomC.candleD.volunteer解析：解析：首段最后一句话表明句中的 salts 指的是蜡烛燃烧时释放的“微小盐颗粒”。既然这些盐颗粒是蜡烛燃烧时释放出的，就应推断释放的盐颗粒的数量受蜡烛燃烧情况的影响。四个选项中只有 A 项flame“火焰”与螬烛燃烧相关。(15).【C15】（分数：2.00）A.favorableB.negative C.definiteD.impressive解析

39、：解析：上文谈到的 study 一直围绕“蜡烛燃烧的烟雾对心脏有好处”展开，并没有涉及任何负面因素。下一分句也指出 Dr Isaxon 并没有花费巨大精力来寻找与之相关的证据。B 项 negative“消极的，否定的”可满足语篇和逻辑要求。(16).【C16】（分数：2.00）A.although B.providedC.thereforeD.because解析：解析：主句指出该项研究并未发现螬烛烟雾对健康有其他的影响。这一事实不会因为研究者(she，即 Dr Isaxon)所承认的“并没有花费巨大精力来寻找相关证据”的事实有所改变。因此空格后引导的从句应是一个让步状语从句，故选 A 项 al

40、though。(17).【C17】（分数：2.00）A.prepared forB.made up forC.blamed for D.appreciated for解析：解析：下句指出常见的蜡烛会释放有害化学物质。由此判断：煤烟会导致健康问题。C 项 blamed for“被责备”代入后可指煤烟被看成是健康问题的成因。(18).【C18】（分数：2.00）A.potentially B.periodicallyC.instantlyD.permanently解析：解析：句子的语义表明这些化学物质是常见的蜡烛释放出来的，且与癌症和其他疾病相关。换言之，这些诱发癌症和其他疾病的化学物质是对身体有

41、潜在威胁的化学物质。故 A 项 potentially“潜在地”符合语义要求。(19).【C19】（分数：2.00）A.odoursB.poisonsC.alcoholsD.scents 解析：解析：Dr Isaxon 建议要尽量使用天然蜡烛，要避免使用“染料”(dyes)等人工添加进蜡烛里的物质。D 项 scents“香味”可指添加进蜡烛的额外物质，与 dyes 并列。(20).【C20】（分数：2.00）A.enormousB.fantasticC.fearfulD.dangerous 解析：解析：as 表原因，说明需要避免在蜡烛中使用染料(dye)的原因：燃烧时释放出化学物质。通常，只有

42、释放出的化学物质对人体有害，才需要人们去尽力避免，故 D 项 dangerous“危险的”正确。Nowadays, amateur photography has become a troubling issue. Citizens of rich countries have got used to being watched by closed-circuit cameras that【C1】_roads and cities. But as cameras【C2】_and the cost of storing data decreases rapidly, it is individu

43、als who are taking the pictures. Some 10,000 people are already testing a【C3】_of Google Glass. It aims to reproduce all the functions of a smartphone in a device placed on a person“s nose.
