The prospects for women who are scientists and engineers at major research universities have improved, although women continue to face unfair treatment in salary and【C1】______to some other resources, a panel of the National Research Council【C2】______in a new report. In recent years "men and women faculty in science, engineering and mathematics have enjoyed comparable【C3】______." said the report. It found that women who applied for university jobs and,【C4】______they had them, for promotion and tenure (终身任职), were at least as【C5】______to succeed as men.
In【C6】______report in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers at the University of Wisconsin who【C7】______a variety of studies concluded that the achievement gap【C8】______boys and girls in mathematics performance had【C9】______to the vanishing point. Girls are【C10】______of a smaller number in the ranks of young math prodigies (神童),【C11】______. that gap is narrowing. The researchers said this and other circumstances "provide abundant evidence【C12】______the impact of social, cultural and other environmental【C13】 ______on the development of mathematical skills of different genders".
The research council, an arm of the National Academy of Sciences, gathered its expert panel at the【C14】______of Congress. The panel【C15】______six disciplines — biology, chemistry, mathematics, civil and electrical engineering, and physics — and【C16】______its analysis on interviews with faculty members at 89 institutions and data from federal agencies, professional societies and other sources.
The Wisconsin researchers, Janet S. Hyde and Janet E. Mertz, studied data from 10 states.【C17】______between girls’ and boys’ performance in the 10 states were "【C18】______to zero in all grades", they said. In the national【C19】______. differences between girls’ and boys’ performance were【C20】______"trivial".
【C9】
选项
A、narrowed
B、compressed
C、descended
D、squeezed
答案
A
解析
语义衔接题。这里说的是男孩子和女孩子在数学表现上的成绩差别,后面提到消失,既然是消失,那么差别应该是缩小的,故答案为[A]narrowed“缩小”。[B]compressed“压缩;精简”;[C]descended“下降”常用来指高度上的降低:[D]squeezed“捏;榨出”。下句提到的gap is narrowing对本题有提示作用。
