问题     In interviews, famous people often say that the key to becoming both happy and successful is to "do what you love." But mastering a skill,【C1】________one that you deeply love, requires a huge【C2】________of dull practice. Any challenging activity requires【C3】________and concentrated practice.
    Anyone who wants to master a skill must【C4】________through the cycle of practice, critical feedback, modification, and progressive improvement again, again, and again. Some people seem able to【C5】________practicing an activity like this for years and take【C6】________in their gradual improvement.【C7】________others find this kind of concentrated, time-intensive work to be【C8】________pr boring. Why?
    The difference may turn on the ability to enter into a state of "flow," the feeling of being completely【C9】________what you are doing. A flow state is a special experience. Flow states can happen in the【C10】________of any activity, and they are most common when a task has well-defined goals and is at an appropriate skill level, and where the individual is able to adjust their performance【C11】________clear and immediate feedback.
    Flow states turn the dull practice into an autotelic activity—that is, one that can be enjoyed for its own sake, rather than as a【C12】________to an end or for attaining some external reward. That raises the question of how we can turn this to our【C13】________: How can we get into a flow state for an activity that we want to master, so that we enjoy both the process of【C14】________skills and the rewards of being a master?
    Psychologists suggested that those who most readily entered into flow states had an "autotelic personality". For those who aren’t necessarily【C15】________with an autotelic personality, there is evidence that flow states can be【C16】________by environmental factors. While there isn’t yet a pill that can turn dull practice into a【C17】________activity for anyone, it is encouraging that we seem, at least to some degree, to be able to push ourselves toward flow states【C18】________we are given unstructured, open-ended time,【C19】________distractions, and a task set at a【C20】________level of difficulty.
【C14】

选项 A、reinforcing
B、capturing
C、improving
D、showing

答案C

解析 SO that表明后半句是前半句的结果,如果能在自己想要掌握的活动中进入流畅状态,那么技能(skills)必定会得到提升,故选C项improving“提升”。A项reinforcing“加强,巩固”,尤指增加人员或物质,使之具有抵抗力,不与skills搭配。B项capturing“捕捉”,一般后面接某物(如逃犯等)。进入流畅状态后技能会得到提升,而不是得到“显示”,D项showing语义不符。
