选项 A.message
B.cede
C.notice
D.sign

答案 A

解析词义辨析【直击答案】空格所在句意为：这种普遍存在的盔甲（不和陌生人交流）传递了“不要靠近我”这个。空格内容是对“Please don't approach me”的概括，另结合动词sends与宾语the的搭配关系，可知A项正确。【命题思路】本题考查的是名词辨析。选填时要根据其与动词的搭配习惯和语义来确定。【干扰排除】B项code和D项sign不和send搭配。C项notice虽然可以和send搭配，但是与语义不符。What is it that makes us feel we need to hide 5 our screens?One answer is fear,according to Jon Wortmann,executive mental coach.We fear rejection,or that our innocent social advances will be 6 as“weird”.We fear we'll be__7.We fear we'll be disruptive.,是什么让我们觉得我们需要躲在手机屏幕后面？【译文】执行心理教练John Wortman认为，答案之一是恐惧。我们害怕拒绝，或者是我们无辜的社会进步会被误解为“怪异的”。我们害怕我们会被评判。我们害怕我们会制造混乱。
