Human males living with their moms may not expect to have much luck hooking up this Valentine’s Day.(1)_____ among the northern Muriqui monkeys, males that spend the most time around their mothers seem to get a(n)(2)_____ boost when mating time rolls around.
The findings, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences USA, suggest that females in some species(3)_____ have evolved to play a critical role in their sons’ reproductive (4)_____. Karen Strier, the paper’s lead author and a professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, says the paper "(5)_____" the so-called grandmother hypothesis, a concept(6)_____ human females evolved to live past their(7)_____ reproductive years to spend more time(8)_____ offspring.

选项
A、proves
B、extends
C、tests
D、rejects
答案
B
解析
根据后文提到的“人类女性进化到在生育期结束后继续存活,以花时间在后代上”.可知这个假说与研究成果一致,因此extends正确,指论文“拓展”了所谓的祖母假说。同时可排除rejects“否决”;而proves“论证”和tests“检验”都与空格后的so-call(所谓的)矛盾。
