"On the Internet, nobody knows you’re a dog," read the title of a famous Peter Steiner cartoon, and nowhere is it truer than Internet dating. The experience is by now familiar: the【C1】________ mate who seemed just your type in a profile turns out to be a disappointment in person.
There may be ways, however, to spot a lying person before you find yourself【C2】________ from him or her at a table lit by candles. Researchers from Cornell University and the University of Wisconsin-Madison compared the【C3】________ heights, weights, and ages of 78 Internet dating participants to their profiles on four dating websites. They noticed several patterns from people who were less than【C4】________. For example, they were less likely to refer to themselves as "I"; used indirect expressions, like "not boring" instead of "exciting" to describe themselves; and stuck to 【C5】________ descriptions.
"People do this because they want to distance themselves from their misleading statements," explained Catalina Toma, an author of the study, in a statement. Using these indications, the researchers【C6】________ identified liars about 65 percent of the time.
People lied most frequently about their weight, with women slimming down, on average, by 8.5 pounds, and men by 1.5 pounds. At least half the subjects【C7】________ their height, and nearly 20 percent changed their age.
Despite the frequency of lies, volunteers proved【C8】________ at catching them. Fortunately, Toma and the team’s research opens up the possibility of a software that could【C9】________ lies for you, though Internet dating participants should be careful what they wish for—nearly everyone in the study lied in some【C10】________ way.

选项
答案
E
解析
空格所在句and连接两个并列分句,前一个分句缺少谓语动词,故需填入动词。后一分句说20%的人谎报年龄,由此推测前面是说近一半的人谎报身高,空格处需填入与changed近义的动词,词库中的altered“改变。更改”符合要求。transform强调“改变性质和外观”,不跟“身高”搭配,可排除。
