Such【C11】______training is of less interest than being able to【C12】______mental alertness. " Fozard and others say they【C13】______their brains with different mental skills, both because they enjoy them and because they are sure that their range of activities will help the way their brains work.

【C4】
选项
A、rather
B、better
C、other
D、greater
答案
A
解析
语义衔接题。空前是比较级形式的more,因为比较级不可连用,所以可首先排除[B]better和[D]greater。[A]rather和[C]other均可与than连用,但含义不同:rather than指“而不是,而非”;other than指“除……以外,不包括”。[C]项很明显不符合语境,故排除,故答案为[A]。此处是说,一个有较多而不是较少思考经历的人。
