Vocal cries would have been quite enough, more likely than tears to gain【C7】______. So, it appears, there must be something special about tears themselves.
Indeed, the new studies suggest that emotional tears may play a direct role in alleviating stress. University of Minnesota researchers who are studying the chemical composition of tears have recently【C8】______two important chemicals from emotional tears.

Researchers at several other institutions are investigating the usefulness of tears as a means of【C10】______human ills and monitoring drugs.
A. attention B. overwhelming C. inappropriate D. embarrassed
E. diagnosing F. indispensable G. rise H. isolated
I. definitely J. enhance K. aspiration L. emotional
M. repelled N. substance O. increasingly [br] 【C9】
