Could the reason for the world’s economic misfortunes all come down to finger length? Although certainly an oversimplification of our【C1】______ troubles, scientists have shown that financial traders who lose the biggest dollars are more【C2】______ to have shorter ring fingers than index fingers.
Former Wall Street trader and scientist John Coates of the University of Cambridge wondered whether finger ratio really correlated with trader success. His team【C3】______ that traders with the lowest index-to-ring-finger ratios made the most money over a 20-month period, even when the researchers controlled for years of experience. They averaged the【C4】______ of $1,232,590, nearly six times more than that of men with【C5】______ ratios. "I almost fell off my chair," says Coates. "I, could not believe what I was seeing."
Tim Harford, a columnist for the Financial Times and author of The Logic of Life: The Rational Economics of an Irrational World, calls the study "fascinating." He says he’s glad to see that economists have【C6】______ looking at financial markets in terms of natural【C7】______ instead of looking at them in terms of rational people making rational decisions.
Coates,【C8】______ , says it is important to note that this study【C9】______ on only one type of trading, and increased confidence and quick reactions may in fact be an obstacle to those trading over long periods of time, like investors at hedge funds and investment banks. "Each【C10】______ of trading may require a different set of traits," he says.
A) focuses E) strengthens I) high M) moreover
B) started F) likely J) conventional N) selection
C) however G) equivalent K) found O) current
D) figure H) style L) studied [br] 【C4】
选项
答案
G
解析
此处应为名词。句子是说食指与无名指长度比率最低的交易员20个月赚的钱平均相当于123.259万美元,equivalent符合文意。考生乍一看可能选figure,但“$l,232,590”是金额,并非一个数字,所以figure可以排除。
