"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. [br] 【C5】
选项
答案
B
解析
此处应填入形容词,修饰descriptions。根据常识推断,说谎的人不会用precise“准确的”语言描述自己,而short“简短的”为最佳答案,因为用语越简短越不容易暴露。
