 　　The number of devices you can talk to is multiplying—first it was your phone, then your car, and now you can tell your kitchen appliance what to do. But even without gadgets that understand our spoken commands, research suggests that, as bizarre as it sounds, under certain 26____, people regularly ascribe human traits to everyday objects.

　　Sometimes we see things as human because we are 27____. In one experiment, people who reported feeling isolated were more likely than others to attribute 28____ to various gadgets. In turn, feeling close to objects can 29____ loneliness. When college students were reminded of a time they had been 30____ in a social setting, they compensated by exaggerating their number of friends-unless they were first given tasks that caused them to interact with their phone as if it had human qualities. According to the researchers, the participants’ phones 31____ substituted for real friends.

　　At other times, we personify products in an effort to understand them. One study found that three in four respondents yelled at their computer. Further, the more their computer gave them problems, the more likely the respondents were to report that it had its own “beliefs and 32____.”

　　So how do people assign traits to an object? In part, we rely on looks. On humans, wide faces are 33____ with dominance. Similarly, people rated cars, clocks, and watches with wide faces as more dominant-looking than narrow-faced ones, and preferred them-especially in 34____ situations. An analysis of car sales in Germany found that cars with grilles(护栅)that were up turned like smiles sold best. The purchasers saw this 35____ as increasing a car’s friendliness.

　　【参考答案】：ELHAJ BIDFK

　　【26解析】：首先可以判断这里缺一个名词，再根据上下文，这里说明的是一个情况，所以Under…circumstances, 在…情况下，固定搭配。E Circumstance n. 情况，环境。

　　【27解析】：根据上下文确定文章主旨-我们为什么要人格化一些机器或者设备，根据下文可以大致判断其中原因之一，人会觉得孤单we feel ___ 很显然这里填一个形容词，结合选项Llonely adj. 寂寞的，孤单的。

　　【28解析】：to attribute 28____ to various gadgets. Attribute sth to sth 把…赋予…;认为…具有…。了解这个词组的意思是解题的关键。由这个词组结构我们知道这里填名词。结合文章主旨和选项找到答案Hconsciousness n. 意识

　　【29解析】：In turn, feeling close to objects can 29____ loneliness. 通过赋予机器意识，反过来，让人觉得自己和他们很亲近，从而可以__孤独。这里根据文意，可以判断应该填一个表示减小，减轻的动词。所以选择Aalleviate vt. 减轻，缓和

　　【30解析】：When college students were reminded of a time they had been 30____ in a social setting, they compensated by exaggerating their number of friends-unless they were first given tasks that caused them to interact with their phone as if it had human qualities.

　　解这道题需要看下文，他们通过其他的方式，比如夸大他们的朋友的人数来补偿曾经被排斥的寂寞孤单。结合上下文，这里应该填一个动词，J. exclude vt. 排除;排斥

　　【31解析】：the participants’ phones 31____ substituted for real friends. 我们发现这个句子语法上成分已经很完全了，而substituted是动词，所以这里副词修饰动词表程度。结合文意，选择Bapparently adv. 显然地，似乎

　　【32解析】：beliefs and 32____. And 表示并列，前后词性要一致，含义要相近。所以此处一定填一个抽象概念的名词。结合文意，排除法可得Idesire n. 欲望;心愿

　　【33解析】：So how do people assign traits to an object? In part, we rely on looks. On humans, wide faces are 33____ with dominance. 文章到这里开始介绍我们怎么给一些物体人格特征的。正确答案为D.Be associated with 和…联系在一起;与……有关，与……有关 固定搭配。

　　【34解析】： Similarly, people rated cars, clocks, and watches with wide faces as more dominant-looking than narrow-faced ones, and preferred them-especially in 34____ situations. 解答这道题要看上文，我们发现作者一直在做比较。注意此处rate这个单词。很多同学常记忆为比率的意思，但是这个词熟词僻义是思考，认为的意思。因为rat作为拉丁文词根是思考的意思。同根词如ration ratio ratify reason。所以这句话大意为：类似地，人们认为宽面的汽车，钟表，手表比窄边的同样的东西看起来更让人印象深刻。这里要填一个形容词形容情况。根据文意可知这题答案选F competitive adj. 竞争的;比赛的;比较的

　　【35解析】：An analysis of car sales in Germany found that cars with grilles(护栅)that were up turned like smiles sold best. The purchasers saw this 35____ as increasing a car’s friendliness. 这里通过上下文大致判断填名词，而上文说道德国人发现有护栅的车子因为有护栅卖的更好。车和设备的一些特点特性，常用Kfeature n. 特色，特征。
