The game, called Phonomena, was (3)______ by David Moore of the University of Oxford, UK, as a(n) (4)______ for children with language problems, but he says his latest (5)______ also show that it can help any child. Other experts,(6)______, are reserving judgement until independent tests are(7)______.
Phonomena is designed to(8)______ children’s ability to distinguish between different phonemes, the basic sounds that form the building(9)______ of language. Up to a fifth of all children (10)______ thought to have problems (11)______ the differences between some sounds, says Moore, who heads the UK Medical Research Council’s Institute of Hearing Research.
In the game, children have to distinguish between(12)______ of phonemes such as the "i" sound from the word "bit" and the "e" from "bet". They are played one phoneme(13)______ by two more examples, and asked which one(14)______ the first sound.

选项
A、boost
B、progress
C、produce
D、disturb
答案
A
解析
词汇线索题。下文的allow them to progress表明此处需要填入表积极意义的词汇,故先排除disturb“干扰”。而能与宾语listening skills搭配的只有A项boost“提高,帮助”。progress是不及物动词,其后不接宾语;produce不符合空格前的dramatically语义关系,也不与“听力技能”搭配。
