题目解答
答案
C
解析
本题考查名词辨析,核心在于理解固定搭配"have effect on"的用法。句子中需要填入一个能与"have"搭配,表示"对...产生的影响"的名词。关键点在于区分选项中各词的常见搭配和语境适用性。
选项分析
A. harm
harm通常与动词do搭配,如"do harm to"(对...造成伤害)。而题目中用的是have,因此搭配不当。
B. strength
strength意为“力量”,与have搭配时,常表示“拥有力量”(如"have strength to do sth")。但此处需要表达“对身体的影响”,与语境不符。
C. effect
effect表示“效果、影响”,"have effect on"是固定搭配,意为“对...产生影响”。此处医生研究 laughter 的作用,effect最符合语境。
D. good
good意为“好处”,但英语中通常用"have a good effect on"表达“对...有益”。直接使用good搭配have不符合习惯用法。
