问题     People who have Internet access at home are more likely to be in a
relationship, with the Web gaining in importance as a meeting place for
those seeking love, according to the latest research in the US.
    " Since prior research on the social impacts of Internet use has been【S1】________
rather ambiguous about the social cost of time spending online, our【S2】________
research suggests that Internet access has an important role to play on【S3】________
helping Americans find mates," said Michael Rosenfeld, an associate professor of sociology.
    The study, which presented at the annual meeting of the American【S4】________
Sociological Association in Atlanta on Monday, showed that 82 percent
of people in the study who had Internet access at home also had a spouse
or romantic partner, comparing to 62 percent for those who did not have【S5】________
Internet access.
    Rosenfeld and Reuben Thomas, of the City University of New
York, found the Internet is the one social arena that is unambiguously
gaining importance as a place which couples meet.【S6】________
    "It is possible that in the next several years the Internet could
eclipse friends as the most influential way which Americans meet their【S7】________
romantic partners, displacing friends out of the top position for the first
time since the early 1940s,"  Rosenfeld said in the statement.  The【S8】________
researchers said they found that the Internet was specially important for【S9】________
finding potential partners in groups where the supply is small or difficult
to identify such as the gay,  lesbian,  and middle-aged heterosexual【S10】________
communities.
【S1】
选项
答案Since—Although
解析 从句引导词错误。此处意为“先前有关互联网的社会影响的研究对上网时间的社会成本的阐述相当模糊，但我们的研究表明，网络在帮助美国人觅偶方面起到了重要作用。”根据句意可知，句子需要一个连词来引导让步状语从句，故将Since改为Although。
