Women have long been more in number than men on college campuses. They also hold more advanced degrees than their male【C1】________. So it makes sense that women would also score higher on IQ tests. But for the last 100 years, they’ve lagged behind men by as much as five points—【C2】________ their scores have been rising.
Finally, according to IQ expert James Flynn, women have【C3】________ the IQ gap and are in fact scoring higher than men, reports the Telegraph.
IQ, the most widely used measure of intelligence and is determined based on the difference between one’s IQ score and the average IQ score of a certain age group. It’s thought to be a product of both environmental and【C4】________ factors, and is a statistically reliable indication of future educational achievement, job performance and income. But the reasons for differences in IQ— for example, between races or genders—have long been widely【C5】________.
There are many【C6】________ reasons that women finally surpassed men in IQ after a century of【C7】________ behind, according to Flynn, who is writing a book about IQ and gender.
One theory is that women have always been capable of scoring higher but, because of gender stereotypes, never realized their own【C8】________. Gender-based differences in education, breeding and social roles have historically set the standard lower for women.
"This improvement is more noticeable for women than for men【C9】________ they were socially and economically deprived in the past," Flynn told the Telegraph.
Now if only women could close in on that【C10】________ wage gap.
【C10】
选项
答案
A
解析
此处应填入形容词作定语修饰wage gap e,前面说到女性开始抹平了与男性在IQ测试得分上的差距,此处用了表示假设的if only“要是……就好了”。说明作者认为wage gap是个不好的东西,故空格填入的词具有负面意义。词库中的annoying“烦人的”符合要求。
