There may be ways, however, to(4)_____ a lying person before you find yourself(5)_____ from him or her at a table lit by candles.

At least half the subjects(15)_____ their height, and nearly 20 percent changed their age.

选项
A、protect
B、distance
C、save
D、rescue
答案
B
解析
do this指代的是“使用简短的语言”,人们这样做的目的当然是为了使自己远离谎言,distance...from...“使远离……”符合语义要求。protect“保护”、save“挽救”在语义上过重了:rescue“救援”常用于从灾难中救出。
