Executive functioning allows us to keep a goal in mind, take【C5】______to achieve that goal, and to ignore other information that might【C6】______ us from that goal. The question is; Would it be the case that bilinguals, by the【C7】______need for controlling the two languages, develop a more efficient executive functioning system? The results suggest that bilinguals【C8】______have this positive collateral effect, which is even stronger when it goes to kids and older people. These are ages【C9】______executive functioning is worse.
Bilinguals do better at tests that require multitasking, including ones that【C10】______ driving and talking on a phone. And the longer people have spoken multiple languages, the greater the cognitive【C11】______. There are even benefits when languages were【C12】______at later ages.
Certainly, bilingualism comes with some 【C13】______. Bilinguals have more " tip-of-the-tongue" problems. There are a couple of milliseconds before they can target.

It is difficult to take laboratory findings showing better executive functioning in bilinguals and demonstrate that they【C17】______ into better performance in the workplace or some other practical 【C18】______.

选项
A、simulated
B、controlled
C、pretended
D、performed
答案
A
解析
动词辨析题。句意为:双语者在多重任务测试中表现得更好,这些测试包括模拟边打电话边开车的情境。根据原文,这里所说的是一种测试,所以必然不是真的边开车边打电话,而是一种模拟测试,因此simulated为答案。controlled“受控”和performed“表演”不符合语境,排除;pretended“假装”有一定干扰性,但该词不适用于科学研究,排除。
