Let’s all stop judging people who talk to themselves. New research says that those who can’t seem to keep their inner monologues (独白) in are actually more likely to stay on task, remain【C1】______ better and show improved perception capabilities. Not bad, really, for some extra muttering.
According to a series of experiments published in the Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology by professors Gary Lupyan and Daniel Swignley, the act of using verbal clues to【C2】______ mental pictures helps people function quicker.
In one experiment, they showed pictures of various objects to twenty【C3】______ and asked them to find just one of those, a banana. Half were【C4】______ to repeat out loud what they were looking for and the other half kept their lips【C5】______ . Those who talked to themselves found the banana slightly faster than those who didn’t, the researchers say. In other experiments, Lupyan and Swignley found that【C6】______ the name of a common product when on the hunt for it helped quicken someone’s pace, but talking about uncommon items showed no advantage and slowed you down.
Common research has long held that talking themselves through a task helps children learn, although doing so when you’ve【C7】______ matured is not a great sign of【C8】______ The two professors hope to refute that idea,【C9】______ that just as when kids walk themselves through a process, adults can benefit from using language not just to communicate, but also to help "augment thinking".
Of course, you are still encouraged to keep the talking at library tones and, whatever you do, keep the information you share simple, like a grocery list. At any【C10】______ , there’s still such a thing as too much information.
A) apparently I) obscurely
B) arrogance J) sealed
C) brilliance K) spectators
D) claiming L) trigger
E) dedicated M) uttering
F) focused N) volume
G) incur O) volunteers H) instructed [br] 【C6】
选项
答案
M
解析
空格后为名词,而且该句中有谓语动词helped,故本空需要填入一个现在分词。转折连词but连接前后两个分句,表示对比,所以该空所填词语应与talking about的意义相近。备选项中只有uttering (讲,说出)符合句意,故答案为M。
