If you’re looking for a creative solution to some problem at work, don’t retreat into a chamber of solitude to ponder your dilemma in silence.【C1】______, head to the nearest cafe—hopefully, one【C2】______people are chatting and the waiters are busily moving about making cappuccinos and【C3】______making some noise. A clever and creative new study suggests that moderate background noise is a better【C4】______to innovative thinking than the sound of silence.
It’s been a bit【C5】______why people sometimes get their most creative work done while sitting in a crowded, bustling cafe. It【C6】______that the effect is not【C7】______the result of the sudden infusion of caffeine. Ravi Mehta, a business administration professor at the University of Illinois, and two colleagues【C8】______explore the effect of moderate surrounding noise on creative problem solving. In a series of experiments, the researchers found that a certain level of noise【C9】______made it easier for experimental subjects to【C10】______clever new ideas.
Isn’t all that noise a bit【C11】______? Actually, yes—and that’s the【C12】______, as Mehta and his colleagues explain in a new paper published in the Journal of Consumer Research.【C13】______a relatively quiet environment may make it easier to【C14】______a book, a noisy environment can【C15】______a certain degree of "disfluency" or "processing difficulty," which can disrupt your【C16】______way of thinking in such a way that it actually【C17】______the sort of abstract thinking that can encourage real creativity.
But it’s not as simple as noise【C18】______creativity. Too much noise really can make it hard to hear yourself think. The solution is to find a happy【C19】______- a place that is pleasantly noisy【C20】______jarringly loud.
【C16】
选项
A、critical
B、practical
C、focused
D、normal
答案
D
解析
本题考查句内语义。空格处填入的形容词修饰way of thinking,这种思维方式是会被噪音扰乱的,并且与the sort of ab—stract thinking相对。符合文意的是norreal,它代入文中,说明噪音扰乱的是常规的思维,而促进的恰好是创造性的思维。其他项代入,“批判性、实用性、专注的思维方式”文中均未涉及,应排除。
