Women have long been more in number than men on college campuses. They also hold more advanced degrees than their male(1)______. 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—(2)_____ their scores have been rising.
Finally, according to IQ expert James Flynn, women have(3)_____ the IQ gap and are in fact scoring higher than men, reports the Telegraph.
IQ, the most widely used measure of(4)_____ and is determined based on the difference between one’s IQ score and the(5)_____ IQ score of a certain age group. It’s thought to be a product of both environmental and(6)_____ factors, and is a statistically reliable(7)_____ of future educational achievement, job(8)_____ and income. But the reasons for differences in IQ—for example, between races or genders—have long been widely(9)_____.
There are many(10)_____ reasons that women finally surpassed men in IQ after a century of falling(11)_____, according to Flynn, who is writing a book about IQ and gender.
One(12)_____ is that women have(13)_____ been capable of scoring higher but, because of gender stereotypes, never realized their own(14)_____. Gender-based differences in education,(15)_____ and social roles have historically set the(16)_____ lower for women.
"This(17)_____ is more noticeable for women than for men(18)_____ they were socially and economically(19)_____ in the past," Flynn told the Telegraph.
Now if only women could close in on that annoying(20)_____ gap.
(20)
选项
A、wage
B、age
C、achievement
D、communication
答案
A
解析
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”。年龄差距和沟通差距,是人与人之间客观存在的,不可能填平这些差距;由上文第一段可知,女性在学术上的表现更优于男性,故不能说她们要缩小“成就差距”;最有可能消除的是工资差距,A为最佳选项。
