The game, called Phonomena, was (3)______ by David Moore of the University of Oxford, UK, as a(n) (4)______ for children with language problems, but he says his latest (5)______ also show that it can help any child.

Phonomena is designed to(8)______ children’s ability to distinguish between different phonemes, the basic sounds that form the building(9)______ of language. Up to a fifth of all children (10)______ thought to have problems (11)______ the differences between some sounds, says Moore, who heads the UK Medical Research Council’s Institute of Hearing Research.
In the game, children have to distinguish between(12)______ of phonemes such as the "i" sound from the word "bit" and the "e" from "bet". They are played one phoneme(13)______ by two more examples, and asked which one(14)______ the first sound.

选项
A、same
B、similarity
C、equal
D、equivalent
答案
D
解析
词汇线索题。由空格前的progress可推断这个计算机程序能在几个星期中就让儿童获得两年的学习进展,equivalent是“等价物”的意思,by theequivalent of表示“相当于”,符合语境意思,故选D。equal指“在能力、地位、权利、责任等方面同等的人,匹敌者”;same强调“同一事物,完全一样的东西”,通常与as搭配。similarity“相似性,类似点”在意思上与句意相差太远。
