问题     A set of genes play a role in learning to read and do math, but this ability is not just gene-driven,【C1】________schooling and help from parents are also vital【C2】________.
    Early mathematical ability and literacy are known to【C3】________in some families, but the genes【C4】________affect this have until now been【C5】________unknown.
    Scientists looked into a data pool called the Twins Early Development Study, which【C6】________12-year-olds from nearly 2,800 British families.
    The team compared twins and【C7】________children to see how they【C8】________in tests for maths and reading comprehension, and then matched the children’s genomes.
    Between 10 percent and half of the genes in-volved in reading were also involved in math, they found, and tiny variants in these【C9】________genes influence skill level.
    【C10】________it’s also clear how important our life experience is in making us better at one or the other. It’s this complex【C11】________of nature and nurture as we grow up【C12】________shapes who we are.
    Professor Robert Plomin said the study was the first to estimate the【C13】________from DNA alone on learning ability.
    But, he stressed, the genetic valiants that were identified were not【C14】________"literacy or numeracy" genes.
    【C15】________they formed part of a more complex mechanism in which many genes each【C16】________a small, but combined, effect on learning ability.
    "Children differ【C17】________in how easy or difficult they find learning, and we need to recognize and【C18】________these individual differences," said Plomin.
    "Heritability does not【C19】________that anything is set in stone—it just means it may take more effort from parents, schools and teachers to【C20】________the child up to speed."  
【C17】

选项 A、reasonably
B、slightly
C、genetically
D、physically

答案C

解析 空格前是动词differ,所以该空格需填入一个修饰differ的副词。根据前文的论述,一部分是先天基因的原因,一部分是后天学校和家教的影响。因此,此处应选C项genetically“基因上地”。A项reasonably“合理地”跟上文提到的“先天”和“后天”都不相关,首先排除。由空格后的we need to recognize…differences(我们需要认识和……这些差异),说明个体差异并不是细微的,故排除B项slightly“细微地”。D项physically“身体上地”跟孩子们的感知关联性不太相关,故排除。
