并且carries a high price也指付出高昂的代价。4.【答案】b【解析】此题考察上下文逻辑关系。上一段分析的是信任的利弊，该段所指内容_____, why do we trust at all? （我们为什么会要信任？）所以采用了递进关系，进一步说明信任的具体内容。只有d选项then(然后，那么)最符合语义搭配。而a选项again（再次）表示强调；b选项instead（然而）表转折；而c选项therefore（因此）表结果，均不符合。5. 【答案】d【解析】此处再一次考察逻辑关系。该空_____ people place their trust in an individual or an institution, their brains release oxytocin，a hormone（___人们信任一个人或者一个机构，大脑都会释放一种荷尔蒙）,只有when（当……时）符合上下文语境和逻辑语境。6. 【答案



】b【解析】该题是考察定语从句的动宾搭配问题。上一句说当人们产生信任感，大脑就会产生一种荷尔蒙，a hormone that _____(6) pleasurable feelings这个that就是定语从句，指这种荷尔蒙能_____令人愉悦的感觉，只能是produce 最符合语境。7.【答案】c【解析】考察词义辨析。该空所填为动词，并且要求与之后的with形成搭配。and triggers the herding instruct that leads sheep to flock together for safety and prompts humans to _____with one another. 说明这种荷尔蒙能够引发一种群居本能，这种本能能让羊群聚在一起，and的后面的内容也与前面的flock together同义复现。所以只有connect最符合语境。8. 【答案】d【解析】该题考察固定搭配。与exposure to构成固定搭配的关系。表示“接触”9. 【答案】b【解析】该题考察上下文语义。上文中说到这种荷尔蒙会给人带来一种愉悦的情绪，通过这个结论，可以得出这种荷尔蒙能让人有让人信任的情绪/心绪。只有mood是最合适的答案。10.【答案】a【解析】此处仍然是考察上下文语境。上文中in a study, researchers sprayed oxytocin into t
