Bilinguals do better at tests that require multitasking, including ones that【C10】______ driving and talking on a phone. And the longer people have spoken multiple languages, the greater the cognitive【C11】______. There are even benefits when languages were【C12】______ at later ages.

解析
短语辨析题。句意为:双语儿童在其使用的每种语言中词汇量都比单语儿童词汇量小,但他们的词汇总量可能会更多一些。本文阐述的是科学研究与发现,因此要介绍一般状况,而不是个例,故四个选项中只有B“平均”符合上下文语境和科学研究的陈述语气。A“偶尔”、C“故意”和D“原则上”均不符合此处文意。
