B.contradictsC.confuses

D.condemn參考答案：B【詳解】考查動詞辨析。A.conducts引導(dǎo)，指揮；B.contradicts與…矛盾；駁斥；C.confuses使…困惑；D.condemn譴責(zé)，判刑；句意：在社交網(wǎng)站上看舊圖片能夠改善你的情緒，這一發(fā)現(xiàn)與之前的研究相矛盾，之前研究的說明與之相反。根據(jù)“whichsuggestedotherwise”可知之前的研究與現(xiàn)實(shí)情況相反，所以使用contradict說明前后結(jié)果相矛盾。故B項(xiàng)正確。7.Noonereallyknowsexactlywhenthefirstsettlersreached______weknowasCalifornia.
