It is our experiences that determine which colors we prefer,【C2】______a new study, which was the first to【C3】______ test the long-suspected idea that people like the colors of the things they like. In their【C4】______ to understand why people like certain colors, scientists have【C5】______on evolution. The main theory is that we like colors that are【C6】______ to things that are healthy and promote survival. A blue sky, for example, indicates calm weather, which【C7】______ explain why blue tends to be a (n)【C8】______ color across cultures. Dark yellows and oranges,【C9】______, invoke urine, vomit and rotting food.【C10】______expected, there is usually a drop in preference【C11】______ these colors in studies around the world.
【C12】______ those general trends, there are wide-ranging differences among individuals about which colors they like. As part of a【C13】______of experiments, the researchers showed slide shows of colored objects to a group of【C14】______. They found that people preferred whichever color had been linked to the【C15】______ images they saw, whether red or green.
In another【C16】______ study, the researchers found that Berkeley students who【C17】______ highest in school spirit had the strongest preferences for blue and gold, their school’s colors, and the most【C18】______ for red and white, the colors of their rival Stanford. Spirited
Stanford students showed the opposite【C19】______, suggesting that social connections can influence which colors we like at different times in our lives.

选项
A、allowed
B、ensured
C、driven
D、committed
答案
C
解析
动词辨析题。句意为:人与人之间的细微的差距,以及造成这一现象的原因,都普遍引起了人们的兴趣。该句中名词性从句what has(50)that和the subtle differences between people并列作为areinterested in的宾语,而选项后的宾语that指代前面的“人们有着微妙的不同”这一现象,由此可以猜测,名词性从句表达的是造成这一现象的原因,所以选择drive“驱动;促使”。allow“允许;认可”,ensure“保证”和commit“犯(罪),做(错事等)”都不符合句意,所以排除。
