To master the violin takes 10,000 hours of practice. Put in that time and【C1】________will follow. This, at least, is what many music teachers tell their pupils. Psychologists are more【C2】________. Some agree practice truly is the thing that【C3】________experts from beginners, but others suspect genes play a role, too, and that【C4】________the right genetic make-up even 20,000 hours of practice would be pointless.
A study just published in Psychological Science, by Miriam Mosing of the Karolinska Institute, in Sweden, suggests that the skeptics are【C5】________. Practicing music without the right genes to【C6】________that practice up is【C7】________useless.
Dr Mosing drew her【C8】________in a time-honored way—by studying twins. She and her colleagues【C9】________ 1,211 pairs of identical twins (who share all their genes) and 1,358 pairs of fraternal twins (who share half). They asked each participant【C10】________he or she played a musical instrument or actively【C11】________singing. Those who did were asked to【C12】________how many hours a week they had practiced at different ages. From this Dr Mosing was able to calculate a【C13】________for each individual’s lifetime practice. Anyone who did not play an instrument or sing got no point.
Next, Dr Mosing tested her volunteers’ musical a-bilities. Expert musicians are exceptionally good at【C14】________differences in pitch, melody and rhythm. She therefore expected to find that if someone had put in【C15】________practice time his musical ability would be as high as an expert’s. But that was not true. In fact, there appeared to be no【C16】________between practice and musical ability of the sort she was measuring. A twin who practiced more than his genetically identical co-twin did not appear to have better musical abilities as a result. In one case the difference between two such twins was 20,228 hours of practice,【C17】________the pair’s measured musical abilities were found to be the same.
That is not to say practice has no【C18】________. Playing an instrument and singing are physical skills, and do take a long time to【C19】________. And Dr Mosing has shown that musical ability has a big genetic【C20】________.
【C13】
选项
A、percentage
B、cost
C、profit
D、score
答案
D
解析
根据下句“没有学习过乐器或者唱歌的人没有分数(got no point)”的语义,可推测Mosing依据这些调查内容,计算出每个人一生总共练习的时间并据此给出分数。故D项score符合语义要求和搭配习惯。A项percentage“比率,百分比”不能对应下句中got no point这一表达。B项cost“花费,成本”,C项profit“利润,利益”,上下文以及Mosing的研究都不涉及学习乐器的成本或回报。
