Trust is a tricky business. On the one hand, it's a necessary condition 1 many worthwhile things: child care, friendships, etc. On the other hand, putting your 2, in the wrong place often carries a high 3.

4, why do we trust at all? Well, because it feels good. 5 people place their trust in an individual or an institution, their brains release oxytocin, a hormone that 6 pleasurable feelings and triggers the herding instruct that prompts humans to 7 with one another. Scientists have found that exposure 8 this hormone puts us in a trusting 9: In a Swiss study, researchers sprayed oxytocin into the noses of half the subjects; those subjects were ready to lend significantly higher amounts of money to strangers than were their 10 who inhaled something else.

11 for us, we also have a sixth sense for dishonesty that may 12 us. A Canadian study found that children as young as 14 months can differentiate 13 a credible person and a dishonest one. Sixty toddlers were each 14 to an adult tester holding a plastic container. The tester would ask, “What’s in here?” before looking into the container, smiling, and exclaiming, “Wow!” Each subject was then invited to look 15. Half of them found a toy; the other half 16 the container was empty-and realized the tester had 17 them.

Among the children who had not been tricked, the majority were 18 to cooperate with the tester in learning a new skill, demonstrating that they trusted his leadership. 19, only five of the 30 children paired with the “20”tester participated in a follow-up activity.

1.【答案】C

【解析】該題選擇的是介詞，與后面的many worthwhile things一塊做后置定語修飾前面的condition,表明對于許多重要事情來說是一個必要的條件。而A選項from（來自于），C選項like（像）D選項on（關于）均語義不搭。

2.【答案】A

【解析】此處考察語義一致和對上下文辨析的問題。該空是做put的賓語，通過前面的On the one hand, it's a necessary condition _____(1) many worthwhile things: child care, friendships, etc. (一方面,信任對許多重要事情來說是必要條件，比如照看孩子，友誼等)；on the other hand 可以得知該題仍然是在講述關于主題 trust的問題，所以只有faith（信任）最合適。而B選項concern（關心，關注），C選項attention（注意），D選項interest（興趣，利益）均不符題意。

3.【答案】D

【解析】此處考察詞義辨析。前文說到putting your _____in the wrong place often carries a high _____（把……放在錯誤的地方通常會帶來巨大的……），可以知道該空肯定也是填貶義，但肯定不能是debt債務這種具體含義，所以只能選price，并且carries a high price也指付出高昂的代價。

4.【答案】B

【解析】此題考察上下文邏輯關系。上一段分析的是信任的利弊，該段所指內容_____, why do we trust at all? （我們?yōu)槭裁磿湃?？）所以采用了遞進關系，進一步說明信任的具體內容。只有D選項then(然后，那么)最符合語義搭配。而A選項again（再次）表示強調；B選項instead（然而）表轉折；而C選項therefore（因此）表結果，均不符合。

5. 【答案】D

【解析】此處再一次考察邏輯關系。該空_____ people place their trust in an individual or an institution, their brains release oxytocin，a hormone（___人們信任一個人或者一個機構，大腦都會釋放一種荷爾蒙）,只有when（當……時）符合上下文語境和邏輯語境。

6. 【答案】B

【解析】該題是考察定語從句的動賓搭配問題。上一句說當人們產生信任感，大腦就會產生一種荷爾蒙，a hormone that _____(6) pleasurable feelings這個that就是定語從句，指這種荷爾蒙能_____令人愉悅的感覺，只能是produce 最符合語境。

7.【答案】C

【解析】考察詞義辨析。該空所填為動詞，并且要求與之后的with形成搭配。and triggers the herding instruct that leads sheep to flock together for safety and prompts humans to _____with one another. 說明這種荷爾蒙能夠引發(fā)一種群居本能，這種本能能讓羊群聚在一起，and的后面的內容也與前面的flock together同義復現(xiàn)。所以只有connect最符合語境。

8. 【答案】D

【解析】該題考察固定搭配。與exposure to構成固定搭配的關系。表示“接觸”

9. 【答案】B

【解析】該題考察上下文語義。上文中說到這種荷爾蒙會給人帶來一種愉悅的情緒，通過這個結論，可以得出這種荷爾蒙能讓人有讓人信任的情緒/心緒。只有mood是最合適的答案。

10.【答案】A

【解析】此處仍然是考察上下文語境。上文中In a study, researchers sprayed oxytocin into the noses of half the subjects; 能從下文得知這也是只本句講另外一組受試者。conuterparts表示對應物，對應的人。

11.【答案】B

【解析】此處考察上下文邏輯關系。從后文中的also可以看出前后一致的關系。前文對于這種天賦都是褒義的色彩，所以答案此時應該是lucky。

12.【答案】B

【解析】同樣也是因為also，說明前后一致關系。只能選擇protect.

13.【答案】A

【解析】考察固定搭配。A Canadian study found that children as young as 14 months can differentiate _____ a credible person and a dishonest one. 選則between 意為：14個月大的孩子能在誠實和不誠實的人之間進行區(qū)分。

14.【答案】C

【解析】考察搭配。結合原文語境，“Sixty toddlers were each__to adult tester holding a plastic container”選項C“be introduced to sth ”表示“初次認識某物?！狈显恼Z境。

15.【答案】D

【解析】本題考察借此搭配及詞義復現(xiàn)。根據原文“what’s in here?”before looking into the container...Each subject was then invited to ___.” 選項D與前文所表達的in here和looking into相關。因此D為正選。

16.【答案】A

【解析】本題考察詞義復現(xiàn)。根據語境“half of them found a toy; the other half 16 the container was empty...”這是用分好并列連接的兩個句子，屬于并列關系。因此，前半句講一般的受測者在盒子里面找到了玩具，后半句在肯定其他人會怎么說。像個小分局的結構基本一直。因此本題填入的含義應該與found 含義相同。因此，A選項發(fā)現(xiàn)為正選。

17.【答案】C

【解析】根據本題語境，此句在破折號后面，是對前面的意思解釋說明。前面提到了另一半人發(fā)現(xiàn)盒子是空的，并且易世達測試者對他們怎么樣。既然盒子是空的，那么肯定認識到測試者是在戲弄他們，所以對此題必須要理解測試者是主語，賓語是Them 指的是受測者。主語的含義決定了謂語的含義為戲弄。因此C選項為正選。

18.【答案】B

【解析】考察搭配。根據句子結構我們可以看出逗號之前是一個介詞短語，意為在所有沒有被戲弄過的孩子里面，大多數的孩子在習得一種新技能的時候與測試者的合作是如何的。Demonstrating that they trusted his leadership 表明這些孩子信任他的領導。因此，既然信任他們就表示愿意合作。所B選項willing to do 構成固定搭配。

19.【答案】A

【解析】本題考察邏輯關系。根據原文語境“”only five of the 30 children paried with the “20” tester participated in a follow-up activity.” 通過該句中的only，可以看出與上文的“大多數”形成鮮明對比。因此，本題應該選擇轉折邏輯關系。A選項為正選。

20.【答案】C

【解析】本題考察詞義辨析。根據原文語境；在接下來的活動中，30個孩子中有5個孩子與...樣的測試者能合作，所以結合上文提到的大部分孩子信任測試者，但是5/30屬于小部分，大部分測試者對應的是信任，而小部分應該對應的是不信任。因此，C選項“不可靠”為正選。
