Is Google creating the next generation of office blowhards? A clever psychological study by Yale University researchers【B1】______ the answer is yes.
It seems that as we look things up on the Web, we become convinced that the information【B2】______ in our brains. It doesn’t. But we behave as if it does, and we’re not shy about 【B3】______ that it’ s there. "This huge database is leading people to believe this information is in their heads,【B4】______in fact it’s not," Matthew Fisher, the Yale graduate psychology student who【B5】______ the study, said.
Is that a bad thing? 【B6】______an annoyance? Or no harm at all? It depends on whom you ask. Fisher’s paper, published online Tuesday in the Journal of Experimental Psychology, 【B7】______that by " wrongly situating【B8】______knowledge within their own heads, people may unwittingly exaggerate how much【B9】______ work they can do in situations【B10】______they are truly on their own."
But Clive Thompson, author of the book Smarter Than You Think: How Technology is Changing Our Minds for the Better, wasn’t so sure. "I’m not quite as【B11】______about it as they seem to be at the end of the article," he said after reading the study. "The【B12】______is that we’ re not that often truly on our own."
And only a few of those【B13】______when we truly are on our own may be dangerous. 【B14】______you might not want your brain surgeon overconfident about how much knowledge she has 【B15】______in her head, does it really【B16】______whether your auto mechanic can change your fan belt from memory or with an assist from a quick laptop【B17】______?
"I don’t think we can conclude this is some terrible strategy," Fisher acknowledged. But, he warned, "if you’re【B18】______of the gaps in your understanding【B19】______it’s being filled in by this information you think you know, you’ d be less inclined to【B20】______out and fill in those gaps."
【B13】
选项
A、events
B、occasions
C、cases
D、intentions
答案
B
解析
occasions侧重于“重大场合或时机”。空缺的段落探讨在哪些情况下会发生危险的情形。选项[A]events(时间)侧重于unusual or important,而且强调某种计划或策划。选项[C]cases(事例,实例)侧重于与其他事件进行比较的example。从文中的dangerous,terrible等词项表达语气看,选项[A]和[C]不如[B]恰当。而选项[D]intentions(意图,打算)也明显不符合上下文含义。
