That health and beauty are linked is not in doubt. But it comes as something of a surprise that who is【C1】______as beautiful depends not only on the heaith of the person in question but also on the【C2】______level of health in the place where she lives. This, though, is the conclusion of a study just published in Biology Letters by Urszula Marcinkowska of the University of Turku, in Finland, and her【C3】______—for Ms. Marcinkowska has found that men in healthy countries think women with the most feminine faces are the prettiest while those in unhealthy places prefer more masculine-looking ones.
Ms. Marcinkowska came to this conclusion by showing nearly 2,000 men from 28 countries various versions of the same female faces,【C4】______to look less or more feminine, and thus【C5】______the effects of different levels of oestrogen(雌激素)and testosterone(睾丸素). Oestrogen promotes features, such as large eyes and full lips, that are characteristically feminine. Testosterone【C6】______masculine features, such as wide faces and strong chins.
Statistical analysis shows it is unconnected with a country’s wealth or its【C7】______of men to women and thus the amount of choice available to men. The cause, though, is unclear.
Previous studies have shown that women with feminine features are more fertile. A man’s【C8】______for them is thus likely to enhance his reproductive success. Ms. Marcinkowska speculates that testosterone-induced behavioural characteristics like【C9】______, which might be expected to correlate with masculine-looking faces even in women(they certainly do in men), help in the competition for resources needed to sustain children once they are born. But why that should be【C10】______important in an unhealthy country is unclear.
A)average B)colleagues C)dominance D)favorable
E)genetically F)majority G)modified H)particularly
I)perceived J)personality K)preference L)promotes
M)ratio N)reflect O)relation [br] 【C6】
选项
答案
L
解析
空格前为主语,所以该空应填入动词且为一般现在时第三人称单数。根据上文可知,该句所要表达的意思是雌性激素促使形成如大眼睛和丰满嘴唇这样的女性特有的面部特征,所以此空应选择L)promotes。
