Many men and women have long bought into the idea that there are "male" and "female" brains, believing that explains just about every difference between the sexes. A new study【C1】______ that belief, questioning whether brains really can be distinguished by gender.
In the study, Tel Aviv University researchers【C2】______ for sex differences throughout the entire human brain.
And what did they find? Not much. Rather than offer evidence for【C3】______ brains as "male" or "female," research shows that brains fall into a wide range, with most people falling right in the middle.
Daphna Joel, who led the study, said her research found that while there are some gender-based【C4】______ , many different types of brain can’t always be distinguished by gender.
While the "average" male and "average" female brains were【C5】______ different, you couldn’t tell it by looking at individual brain scans. Only a small【C6】______ of people had "all-male" or "all-female" characteristics.
Larry Cahill, an American neuroscientist(神经科学家), said the study is an important addition to a growing body of research questioning【C7】______ beliefs about gender and brain function. But he cautioned against concluding from this study that all brains are the same,【C8】______ of gender.
"There’s a mountain of evidence【C9】______ the importance of sex influences at all levels of brain function,"he told The Seattle Times.
If anything, he said, the study【C10】______ that gender plays a very important role in the brain—"even when we are not clear exactly how. "
A)abnormal I)regardless

G)percentage O)traditional
H)proving [br] 【C1】
选项
答案
E
解析
动词辨析题。空格前为名词A new study,作句子主语。空格后为名词thatbelief,作宾语,因此空格处需填入动词作谓语。后半句提到,这项新的研究质疑人类大脑是否可以靠性别来区分。由此可知,空格处动词的词义应该和“质疑”的意思相近,且该动词应为第三人称单数的形式,因此E)challenges“挑战”符合句意,故为答案。备选项中有六个动词,首先根据动词形式,可以排除分词形式的categorizing和proving,以及过去式applied和searched。而suggests的意思为“暗示,建议”,和后面的questioning并无关系,故排除。
