Erard points out that, for no good reason, this question has been(11)_____ by science. After all, we study extraordinary(12)_____ in mathematics and music; why not linguistic geniuses?

选项
A、direct
B、continuous
C、active
D、exclusive
答案
B
解析
此处需要填入与extensive“广泛的”并列的形容词,修饰contact“联系”。广泛的联系说明联系已进行,故排除direct“直接的”、active“积极的”和exclusive“排外的”,选择continuous“连续的”,说明要理解理解文化差异,需要与本地人广泛而连续的接触。
