The Internet and cell phones are bringing people together, not【C1】______ us apart—at least, according to a new survey recently by the Pew Internet and American Life project. The research followed up a shocking 2006 study, which found that American social networks were rapidly【C2】______ and that 25% of Americans reported that they had not one close friend or family member to rely on.
In【C3】______ , ’Pew researchers found that just 6% of those surveyed reported having no intimate relationships. Unfortunately, the new study did confirm the other findings, showing that Americans today do have far fewer close relationships than they did as recently as 1985.
According to both studies, the average social network shrunk by one-third since 1985—and more people today are relying only on spouses or family members for emotional support.
Intriguingly,【C4】______ , Internet and cell phone use didn’t replace close【C5】______ with more superficial contacts. Instead, people who most relied on these communication tools had a larger and more【C6】______ group of close friends and family members. They were more likely to be close to someone of another race, for example.
And,【C7】______ to net opposers’ worries, Internet use didn’t replace involvement in local activities. In fact, bloggers and cell users are more likely to【C8】______ to local organizations like youth groups and charities, not less so.
Such【C9】______ effects of the Internet are good news for public health. Studies have shown repeatedly that the number and quality of people’s relationships affects many aspects of well-being. The more connected people are, the healthier they tend to be.
Consequently, the shrinkage in network size remains a serious cause for concern—but these results suggest that mobile and Internet communication are not【C10】______ problematic and can even be part of the solution.
A) surely E) however I) necessarily M) positive
B) compare F) ties J) contrast N) tearing
C) single G) negative K) contrary O) diverse
D) cutting H) belong L) contracting [br] 【C6】
选项
答案
O
解析
该空格位于副词more和名词group中间,可以判断此处可能填入一个形容词。根据后一句提到的,他们更可能接触其他民族或种族的人,所以选diverse“多种多样的”。
