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.

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.

选项
A、identified
B、narrowed
C、reduced
D、closed
答案
D
解析
根据句中的“事实上得分高过男性”可知close“填平”更符合句意。如果男性和女性之间的IQ差距只是缩小了(narrow),女性的IQ得分就不可能高过男性,因此排除B。identify“认出,识别”;reduce“减少”。
