问题     Are you always sure you know what people mean when they try to describe their feelings to you? We use both words and【C1】______to express our feelings. It is true that a smile means the【C2】______thing in any language. There is 【C3】______ a number of striking similarities in the【C4】______different animals show the same feeling. This is probably because such behavior patterns are inherited 【C5】______ than learned.
    Fear is【C6】______emotion that is shown in much the same way all over the world. In Chinese and in English fiction, a phrase like "he went pale and began to tremble"【C7】______that the man is either very afraid 【C8】______ has just had a very nasty shock. 【C9】______, "he opened his eyes wide" is used to suggest anger in Chinese 【C10】______ in English it conveys surprise.
    Even in the same culture, people differ【C11】______their ability to interpret and express feelings. Experiments in America have shown that women are usually【C12】______ than men at recognizing fear, anger, love and happiness on people’s faces. Disgust, contempt and suffering seem to be the most difficult【C13】______for people everywhere either to recognize or to express. Other studies have shown that older people【C14】______find it easier to interpret body language than younger people do. And psychologists have shown that some people frequently give completely the wrong【C15】______of how they feel. For【C16】______, they try to show affection but in fact actually communicate dislike. Or when they want to show interest, they give the impression that they don’t【C17】______. This can happen【C18】______among close friends and members of the same family. In other words, what we think we are communicating through language,【C19】______. face and body movements may be the exact 【C20】______ of what other people understand. [br] 【C5】
选项 A、rather
B、less
C、more
D、sooner
答案 A
解析 语义衔接题。本题承接上两题，对上句做出了解释。动物在表达相同感觉上的相似性可能是因为这些行为方式是遗传性的而不是后天习得的。rather than意为“而不是”，与文意相符，故答案为[A]。[B]less、[C]more和[D]sooner均表示比较，在此不符合文意。
