找机会一起大笑，以增进亲密感，尤其是在进行艰难的对话之前。同样，共享的笑声

的，可以在解决冲突之前使用。故选C。

16.答案：CBGFA

解析：①语境衔接题。根据空后一句，也是第二段首句Thatisthefindingoftwo

fascinatingrecentstudies.（这是最近两项引人入胜的研究的发现），再结合第二段最后

controlgroupafterbeingforcedtowatchadullscreensaver.（在第二项研究中，受试者在

被迫观看枯燥的屏保后，在单词测试中给出的答案比非无聊对照组要多）以及空前句

Todayitiseasytogetridofboredom.（如今，摆脱无聊很容易），可知本空应选表结

果、发现的句子。C选项Butwhatifboredomisameaningfulexperience?（但如果无聊

是一种有意义的体验呢？）符合语境。故选C。

②语境衔接题。根据空前一句Theresult?（结果如何？）空后一句描述了实验的表现

Inthesecondstudy,subjectsgavemoreanswerstoawordtestthananon-boredcontrol

groupafterbeingforcedtowatchadullscreensaver.（在第二项研究中，受试者在被迫观

看枯燥的屏保后，在单词测试中给出的答案比非无聊对照组要多），可知提示本空应

选表实验结果的句子。B选项Boredsubjectscameupwithmorecreativeideas.（无聊的

受试者会想出更多有创意的点子。）符合语境。故选B。

③语境衔接题。根据本段首句Arestlessmindhungersforstimulation,soboredom

becomesaseekingstate.（一颗不安分的心渴望刺激，所以无聊就成了一种寻求状

态），空后一句则是这种状态的表现：Parentswilltellyouthatkidswith"nothingtodo"

willeventuallyinventsomefungamestoplay-withacardboardbox,alightswitch,

whatever.（家长们会告诉你，”无事可做”的孩子最终会发明一些有趣的游戏一一用纸

箱、电灯开关什么的），故填入G选项Whennotsatisfiedwithyourstate,you*re

seekingandengaged.（当不满足于自己的状态时，就会去寻找和投入。）符合语境。故

选G。

④语境衔接题。根据空后句"Thismightrelieveustemporarily,butitshutsdownthe

deeperthinking."（”这可能会暂时缓解我们的压力，但却关闭了更深层次的思考。

tokilleverymomentofboredomwithmobiledevices.（我们试图用移动设备消磨无聊的

懒得做。因此，我们现代任务的一个重要部分就是学会评估这些不同类型的无聊一一

区分有用的无聊和有害的无聊），以及上一段讲述了无聊带来的好处，可知本段应讲

述坏的无聊这一面，故填A选项Andthereis,ofcourse,badboredom.（当然，也有不

好的无聊。）符合语境。故选A。
