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.
【C18】
选项
A、reflects
B、replaces
C、proves
D、equals
答案
D
解析
本题考查上下文语义。上文解释了噪音会促进创造性思维的原理。本句以but转折,指出“但这并非如噪音……创造力这样简单”;下文紧接着说明太多的噪音也并不可取。因此,空格处填入的动词是说明噪音并不等同于创造力,即,噪音并不能绝对促进创造力,equal符合文意。其他项代入,“噪音反映、取代、证明创造力”均无从得知,应排除。
