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.

选项
A、participants
B、candidates
C、rivals
D、victims
答案
A
解析
名词辨析题。句意同上。由原文可以推断,研究人员在实验中为了解人们对颜色的喜好,特意放带彩色物体的幻灯片给他们看。这些人应该称之为participant“参与(实验)者”,candidate意为“候选人;应试者;求职者”。rival“竞争对手”和victim“牺牲者;受害者”都不能准确表达观看幻灯片的这群人的身份,所以排除。
