Phonomena is designed to(8)______ children’s ability to distinguish between different phonemes, the basic sounds that form the building(9)______ of language.

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、compares
B、rivals
C、mates
D、matches
答案
D
解析
词义辨析题。上文提到儿童必须辨别成对的音素,故可推断这个游戏之后紧跟的两个实例是为了让儿童辨别哪个与先给出的音素相符。可知D项matches正确。compare“比较,相比”;rival“竞争,对抗”;mate“(动物)交配”。
