They found(39) ________differences in the volume of white matter. Overweight individuals had a widespread reduction in white matter compared with lean people.The team then calculated how white matter volume related to age across the two groups.They discovered that an overweight person at 50 had a(40) _________white matter volume to a lean person aged 60.Researchers only observed these differences from middle-age onwards, suggesting that brains may be particularly vulnerable during this period of ageing.E D C H I K J B G F易错题分析：32. 根据标志词brainsbrain structure词性和句子意思可以判断出是扫描大脑，所以用scanned33. 根据标志词Shrinkage of parts的提示，可以判断出来这空填shrunk；35. 此处易错主要是学生通常把decline看成动词，忽略它的名词的性质，所以容易错；40. 此处学生可能容易判断错词性，把它当成缺乏副词，所以容易写错，根据句子意思，这里是“50多的人比起60多岁的人，白质相当多”可以判断出来这空填comparable 完型Language is hard. In fact, it’s infinitely harder and more complicated than math. And yet, nearly every small child can learn and master language.Why is math so overwhelming for so many students? And how high is the price we pay from having so many math- (41) _______ or even math-illiterate people in our society? Too high, especially as the ability to grasp data and pursue advanced work that involves math is becoming increasingly(42) _________ for both citizens and job applicants.But how many of us feel incapable, rather than poorly taught, when we are confronted with the rigors of math? How many children who struggled to grasp math concepts, who lacked the necessary tool kit, were led to feel stupid, even demeaned?Compare it to spoken or written language. When you make a mistake, a teacher corrects the part that is wrong. And then you(43) _______. With math, if you don’t have the correct result, it is typically treated as wrong. And, as mistake after mistake(44) __________, too many students simply give up: I can’t do math.But math is not about intelligence. It’s a language that too many people never learn, often because the education process(45)________ the number of ways that a given person can arrive at a given solution.That’s not a failure of children to learn. That’s a failure of (46)________. It’s a failure of the school. We should not blame the student. (These are children, after all.)Part of the challenge is to identify the gaps in knowledge, to (47)________ that the challenge is not that a student simply doesn’t understand algebra or trigonometry or whatever. There may be a particular basic concept that stands(48)________of going forward in math, as well as other fields such as social science or engineering. Overcoming this block requires moving beyond broad industrialized education and to, (49)_________ learning that allows students to find their own way in. Show me a thousand students and I’ll show you a thousand (50)_______ pathways that they might take to achieve math success.With new digital technologies and a massive amount of data collection and analytics, we have the ability to help students identify the essential concepts they don’t understand. We have data on all the students that solved a particular math problem and those that failed to solve it. We also have data on the problems they were able to solve prior to that.So as a student recognizes that they are(51)______ with, say, negative number concepts, they can go back and master the material—to fill in the gaps that allows them to go forward. And when they hit another tough spot? They can jump to the problems that allow them to master that concept. The hope is that as they progress, their interest and enthusiasm(52)________.We are pursuing this approach at the university level. We also are seeking to incorporate this approach at the high school, middle school and elementary levels. This will make it possible for a growing number of students to pursue degrees and careers that they never thought.In the years ahead, that mindset, borne out of the failure of math instruction, should(53)_________. If we can succeed at breaking down the (54)________ that there’s something wrong with a 3rd grader who cannot learn math—rather than something wrong with the teaching process—then we can look forward to new generations of math-literate citizens. Whatever career they choose, they will be more confident andmore capable to understand and contribute to an increasingly complex, (55)_______ driven world.学语言真的很难。
