e. New rumors branch out to fill in the gaps left by the initial rumor.”把謠言比作樹,新謠言的出現填補了最初謠言留下的空白。故選D。根據第四段中的“Each receiver is at the same time a potential transmitter of the information. The receiver often adds their own opinion.

In one experiment healthy college students were asked to write about either personally disturbing experiences or ordinary topics over a period of four days. In the months afterwards, students who had chosen to show their inner thoughts and feelings in their writing visited the health center for illness much less often than those who had written about everyday topics. The researchers suggested that failure to face up to painful experience can be a form of stress itself, and can increase the possibility of illness. It follows, then, that actively dealing with a major shock makes possible its understanding and acceptance. The answer is not to suffer in silence. It may not always be possible to talk about personal problems, but writing them down will help the body to fight disease in the long run.(1)In the first experiment, the students who wrote about painful events ________. to suffer psychological problems sharing their inner thought and feelings less likely to seek treatment for sickness39。許多專家認為將與令人不安的事件有關的思想和情感表達出來是十分重要的。所以從長遠來看,不要默默忍受,說出來或者寫出來將有助于身體對抗疾病。根據第二段中的“In the months afterwards, students who had chosen to show their inner thoughts and feelings in their writing visited the health center for illness much less often than those who had written about everyday topics.”可知,在隨后的幾個月里,那些選擇在寫作中表達自己內心想法和感受的學生,比那些寫過日常話題的人更少去看病。 (2)考查細節(jié)理解。故選C。根據第三段中的“The white cells that fight off bacteria and viruses…”可知,白細胞是用來對抗細菌和病毒的,因此these invaders 指的就是細菌和病毒這些“入侵者”。 (4)考查主旨大意。然后通過兩個實驗證明,將內心的感受通過說或者寫的方式表達出來從長遠看會有助于身體對抗疾病。選A。7.閱讀理解 s just over 1% of the population — an amount expected to increase to 25% by 2025.
