Children whose minds wander might have sharper brains, research suggests.
A study has found that people who appear to be constantly【C1】______have more "working memory", giving them the ability to hold a lot of information in their heads and【C2】______it mentally.
Children at school need this type of memory on a daily basis for a variety of tasks, such as【C3】______teachers’ instructions or remembering dictated sentences.

At the end, participants measured their working memory capacity by their ability to【C5】______a series of letters interspersed with simple math questions.

The results, published online in the journal Psychological Science, appear to【C7】______previous research that found working memory allows humans to juggle multiple thoughts【C8】______.
Dr Jonathan Smallwood, of the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Science in Leipzig, Germany, said: "What this study seems to suggest is that, when circumstances for the task aren’ t very difficult, people who have【C9】______working memory resources deploy them to think about things other than what they’ re doing."
Working memory capacity is also【C10】______with general measures of intelligence, such as reading comprehension and IQ scores, and also offers a window into the widespread, but not well understood, realm of internally driven thoughts.
A)following B)wandering C)from D)sequentially

选项
答案
J
解析
空前是appear to,空后是名词previous research,则此处应填一个动词,构成appear to do结构,I、J、L项入选,I项和L项已被选择,故选择J项confirm(证实),则此句意为“这一研究结果似乎证实了先前的研究发现”,符合文意。因此选择confirm“证实”。
