参考解析：

细节理解题。根据题干关键词“findings”“team of psychologists”和“experiment”定位到第三段第二句“One team of psychologists discovered that two-thirds of men and a quarter of women would rather self-administer electric shocks than sit alone with their thoughts for 15 minutes.”。该实验表明：许多志愿者宁愿“self-administer electric shocks”也不愿忍受无聊，该部分与B选项完全吻合。选项A意为“志愿者宁愿看无聊电影也不愿独自无聊地思考”，与答案句意相反。C选项中的男女志愿者的比较文中没有提到，为无中生有。D选项意为“多数志愿者不能忍受无聊超过15分钟”，答案句中并未提及，故排除。故选B。
