People have wondered for a long time how their personalities and behaviors are formed. It is not easy to explain why one person is intelligent and another is not, or why one is【C1】______ and another is competitive.
Social scientists are, of course, extremely interested in these types of questions. They want to explain why we possess certain characteristics and【C2】______ certain behaviors. There are no clear answers yet, but two【C3】______ schools of thought on the matter have developed. As one might expect, the two【C4】______ are very different from one another, and there is a great deal of debate between proponents (支持者) of each theory. The controversy is often【C5】______ to as "nature vs nurture".
Those who support the "nature" side of the conflict believe that our personalities and behavior
patterns are largely determined by biological and【C6】______ factors. That our environment has little, if anything, to do with our abilities, characteristics and behavior is central to this theory. Taken to an extreme, this theory maintains that our behavior is predetermined to such a great degree that we are almost completely【C7】______ by our instincts.
Proponents of the "nurture" theory, or, as they are often called, behaviorists, claim that our environment is more important than our biologically based instincts in determining how we will act. A behaviorist, B. F. Skinner, sees humans as beings whose behavior is almost completely【C8】______ by their surroundings.
Neither of these theories can yet【C9】______ explain human behavior. In fact, it is quite likely that the【C10】______ to our behavior lies somewhere between these two extremes. That the controversy will continue for a long time is certain.
A) governed E) consulted I) scarcely M) cooperative
B) referred F) genetic J) approaches N) resolution
C) strategies G) reveal K) key O) distinct
D) fully H) shaped L) exhibit [br] 【C7】
选项
答案
A
解析
are…by结构表明此处需填入动词的过去分词。空格前说我们的行为在很大程度上是被预先决定了的(predetermined),因此governed“控制,支配”符合上下文语义,表示“我们几乎是完全受本能支配”。
