Children whose minds wander might have sharper brains, research suggests.
A study has found that people who appear to be constantly【C1】______have more "working memory", giving them the ability to hold a lot of information in their heads and【C2】______it mentally.
Children at school need this type of memory on a daily basis for a variety of tasks, such as【C3】______teachers’ instructions or remembering dictated sentences.
During the study, volunteers were asked to perform one of two simple tasks【C4】______which researchers checked to ask if the participants’ minds were wandering.
At the end, participants measured their working memory capacity by their ability to【C5】______a series of letters interspersed with simple math questions.
Daniel Levinson, a psychologist at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in the United States, said that those with higher working memory capacity reported "more mind【C6】______during these simple tasks", but their performance did not suffer.
The results, published online in the journal Psychological Science, appear to【C7】______previous research that found working memory allows humans to juggle multiple thoughts【C8】______.
Dr Jonathan Smallwood, of the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Science in Leipzig, Germany, said: "What this study seems to suggest is that, when circumstances for the task aren’ t very difficult, people who have【C9】______working memory resources deploy them to think about things other than what they’ re doing."
Working memory capacity is also【C10】______with general measures of intelligence, such as reading comprehension and IQ scores, and also offers a window into the widespread, but not well understood, realm of internally driven thoughts.
A)following B)wandering C)from D)sequentially
E)associated F)during G)focusing H)distracted
I)remember J)confirm K)conflicting L)manipulate
M)concentrative N)additional O)simultaneously
【C7】
选项
答案
J
解析
空前是appear to,空后是名词previous research,则此处应填一个动词,构成appear to do结构,I、J、L项入选,I项和L项已被选择,故选择J项confirm(证实),则此句意为“这一研究结果似乎证实了先前的研究发现”,符合文意。因此选择confirm“证实”。
