Online social networks are massively influential, yet we understand very little about the impact they have on our brains. Recently, scientists have found a direct 【C1】______ between the number of Facebook friends a person has and the size of【C2】______ brain regions. The study also shows the more Facebook friends a person has, the more real-world friends he is【C3】______to have.
Facebook users who have a【C4】______of friends also tend to have smaller circles of friends in the real-world and,【C5】______ those who have thousands of friends on Facebook are likely to have larger circles offline, according to the study. The findings support the【C6】______ that most Facebook users use the site to【C7】______their existing, real-life social relationships, maintaining or reinforcing these friendships,【C8】______creating a network of entirely new,【C9】______friends.
The researchers scanned the brains of 125 university-aged Facebook users,【C10】______ these scans to the size of their friend networks online and the real-world. Those with larger Facebook networks had larger amounts of grey matter in several regions of the brain. One of these regions, the amygdala, is 【C11】______with processing memory and emotional responses. Pairing this【C12】______ another recent study, the researchers show increased volume grey matter in the amygdala【C13】______ a larger network of real-world friends.【C14】______these studies show a large network of online friends also point to an increased volume of grey matter—【C15】______ information processing occurs. In addition to brain scans, the participants were asked questions 【C16】______ to compare the size of their online networks to the size of their real-world networks.
The study【C17】______the correlation between the number of friends online【C18】______ offline. Still, it is not possible from the【C19】______to say whether having more Facebook friends makes the regions of the brain larger【C20】______ whether some people are "hard-wired" to have more friends. [br] 【C3】
选项
A、anxious
B、likely
C、bound
D、glad
答案
B
解析
形容词辨析题。句意为:研究还表明,一个人拥有的“脸书”好友越多,他在现实中拥有的朋友数量可能也越多。依据后文,第二段第一句比较了拥有“脸书”好友圈较大的人与好友圈较小的人,两者在现实社会中拥有的朋友数量也可能有差别,原文中分别用了“tend to”和“are likely to”,因此likely“可能的”符合此处文意。本段介绍的是科学研究的客观发现,没有涉及主观的情绪和态度,因此排除anxious“焦急的”和glad“高兴的”;第二段明确提示,本句所陈述的发现只是一种倾向,故排除bound“注定的,必然的”。
