Let’s all stop judging people who talk to themselves. New research says that those who can’t seem to keep their inner monologues (独白) in are actually more likely to stay on task, remain【C1】______ better and show improved perception capabilities. Not bad, really, for some extra muttering.
According to a series of experiments published in the Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology by professors Gary Lupyan and Daniel Swignley, the act of using verbal clues to【C2】______ mental pictures helps people function quicker.
In one experiment, they showed pictures of various objects to twenty【C3】______ and asked them to find just one of those, a banana. Half were【C4】______ to repeat out loud what they were looking for and the other half kept their lips【C5】______ . Those who talked to themselves found the banana slightly faster than those who didn’t, the researchers say. In other experiments, Lupyan and Swignley found that【C6】______ the name of a common product when on the hunt for it helped quicken someone’s pace, but talking about uncommon items showed no advantage and slowed you down.
Common research has long held that talking themselves through a task helps children learn, although doing so when you’ve【C7】______ matured is not a great sign of【C8】______ The two professors hope to refute that idea,【C9】______ that just as when kids walk themselves through a process, adults can benefit from using language not just to communicate, but also to help "augment thinking".
Of course, you are still encouraged to keep the talking at library tones and, whatever you do, keep the information you share simple, like a grocery list. At any【C10】______ , there’s still such a thing as too much information.
A) apparently I) obscurely
B) arrogance J) sealed
C) brilliance K) spectators
D) claiming L) trigger
E) dedicated M) uttering
F) focused N) volume
G) incur O) volunteers H) instructed
【C9】
选项
答案
D
解析
空格前为一句完整的话,跟空格后的句子没有连接词,而且空格后为that引导的宾语从句,故本空需要填入一个现在词。由句意可知,成年人使用语言有很多好处,不仅可以用于交流,还可以帮助“增强思维”,这是两位教授的看法,故空格处为一个表示观点的动词。备选项中只有claiming(声称,主张)符合句意,故答案为D。
