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?

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.

选项
A、promise
B、predict
C、provide
D、prove
答案
C
解析
动词辨析题。句意为:唯一在现实应用中初步得到证实的可能就是,多语使用对老年痴呆症患者有益。此处文章是在讨论双语使用的现实益处,而不是讨论其未来的可能,因此首先排除promise“承诺”和predict“预测”;这里是阐述实验研究以外的现实情况,因此prove“证实”不合上下文语境,也应排除。provide“提供,带来”符合原文语义,并可与介词to搭配,故为答案。
