选项 A、creating
B、melting
C、narrowing
D、spreading

答案 A

解析 该句空格处需要填入一个动词。本题空格所在句子句意为“许多人对自己的领导能力过于自信,导致他们在自身所认为的能力水平和实际……之间________差距。”空格处所填动词跟其后名词短语a gap between…and…(在……和……之间的差距)构成动宾关系,结合前半句的overconfident“过分自信的;自负的”和gap“差距”可知,本句前后是因果逻辑关系,由于许多人overconfident,所以才“产生”gap。综合四个选项,只有选项[A]creating“造成;引起”符合句意,故为正确选项。
