Bilingual education is controversial in the United States.【C1】______, a growing body of research shows that【C2】______speaking two languages comes with certain types of improved mental【C3】______. Being able to use two languages and never knowing which one to be used right now is good to the brain. The attentional executive system, crucial for all higher thought, seems to be【C4】______.
Executive functioning allows us to keep a goal in mind, take【C5】______to achieve that goal, and to ignore other information that might【C6】______ us from that goal. The question is; Would it be the case that bilinguals, by the【C7】______need for controlling the two languages, develop a more efficient executive functioning system? The results suggest that bilinguals【C8】______have this positive collateral effect, which is even stronger when it goes to kids and older people. These are ages【C9】______executive functioning is worse.
Bilinguals do better at tests that require multitasking, including ones that【C10】______ driving and talking on a phone. And the longer people have spoken multiple languages, the greater the cognitive【C11】______. There are even benefits when languages were【C12】______at later ages.
Certainly, bilingualism comes with some 【C13】______. Bilinguals have more " tip-of-the-tongue" problems. There are a couple of milliseconds before they can target. Bilingual children, also, have 【C14】______ a smaller vocabulary in each of their languages than monolingual children,【C15】______they probably know more words altogether.
Still, all of these findings are【C16】______ abstract. It is difficult to take laboratory findings showing better executive functioning in bilinguals and demonstrate that they【C17】______ into better performance in the workplace or some other practical 【C18】______. The only real, world application preliminarily demonstrated may be that multilingualism can【C19】______health benefits to Alzheimer’s patients. Bilinguals show【C20】______ of the disease up to four years later than monolinguals.
【C17】
选项
A、convert
B、develop
C、integrate
D、translate
答案
D
解析
动词辨析题。句意为:实验室中显示双语使用者执行功能更好的发现并不足以证实双语使用者在工作之中或其他实际情景之中表现会更好。本句是讨论实验发现与现实应用之间的关系,尽管在实验中双语者表现更好,这种表现能否迁移至现实工作或生活中仍未可知。translate into可以表示“把(思想、情感等)用另一种(尤指更具体的)形式表现出来”,符合上下文语义,故[D]为答案。develop“发展”和integrate“融合”显然不符合语境,排除;convert“转变”有一定干扰性,但该词表示的是“改变事物的形式或用途”,并不符合原文,排除。
