问题     Who talks more, women or men? The seemingly contradictory evidence is【B1】by the difference what I call public and private speaking. More men feel comfortable doing public speaking,【B2】more women feel comfortable doing【B3】speaking. Another way of【B4】these differences is by using the【B5】"reporttalk" and "rapport-talk".
    For most women, the language of conversations is【B6】a language of rapport: a way of establishing connections and【B7】relationships. Emphasis is【B8】on displaying similarities and【B9】experiences. From childhood, girls criticize peers who try to stand【B10】or appear better than others. People feel their closest connections at home, or in setting where they feel at home—with one or a few people they feel close【B11】and comfortable about—in other words, during private speaking.【B12】even the most public situations can be approached like private speaking.
    For most men, talk is primarily a means to【B13】independence and negotiate and【B14】status in a hierarchical social order. This is done by exhibiting knowledge and skill, and by【B15】center stage through verbal performance such as storytelling, joking, or【B16】information. From childhood; men learn to use talking as a way to get and keep【B17】. So they are more【B18】speaking in larger groups made up of people they know less well, in the broadest【B19】"public speaking". But even the most private situations can be approached like public speaking, more like giving a report than【B20】rapport.
选项 A、Compromised
B、consolidated
C、reinforced
D、reconciled
答案 D
解析 本段的第二句是文章的主旨句。从本句句意可知，所填词是表示evidence和difference之间的逻辑关系。综合整段来看，这里的difference是指男女交谈的差异，从修饰evidence的seemingly contradictory(表面上矛盾的)可知这里需要表示“协调，一致”的词，D.reconciled“使一致、使符合”正确。A.compromised“妥协”；B.consolidated“巩固，加强”；C.reinforced"增强”，三项都不符合句意。
