It is well known that teenage boys tend to do better【C1】________math than girls, that male high school students are more likely than their female counterparts【C2】________advanced math courses like calculus, that virtually all the great mathematicians【C3】________men. Are women born with【C4】________mathematical ability? Or does society’s sexism slow their progress? In 1980, two Johns Hopkins University researchers tried【C5】________the eternal nature/nurture debate. Julian Stanley and Camilla Benbow【C6】________10,000 talented seventh- and eighth-graders between 1972 and 1979.Using the Scholastic Aptitude Test, in which math questions【C7】________to measure ability rather than knowledge, they discovered【C8】________sex differences.【C9】________the verbal abilities of the males and females【C10】________differed, 【C11】________girls scored over 500 (on a scale of 200 to 800)【C12】________mathematical ability; at the 700 level, the ratio was 14 to 1.The conclusion: males have【C13】________superior mathematical reasoning ability.
Benbow and Stanley’s findings, 【C14】________were published in Science, disturbed some men and【C15】________women. Now there is【C16】________for those people in a new study from the University of Chicago that suggests math【C17】________not, after all, a natural male domain. Prof Zalman Usiskin studied 1, 366 tenth graders. They were selected from【C18】________classes and tested on their ability to solve geometry proofs, a subject requiring【C19】________abstract reasoning and spatial ability. The conclusion【C20】________by Usiskin: there are no sex differences in math ability.
【C8】
选项
A、distinct
B、instinct
C、remote
D、vague
答案
A
解析
由下文的at the 700 level, the ratio was 14 to 1 (而在高于700分的人群中,男女生比例拉大到了14:1),可看出男、女生的数学能力有着明显差别,distinct“明显的”符合句意。instinct“本能”;remote“偏僻的”vague“模糊的”。
