填空题Directions: In this section, you will hear a passage three times. When the passage is read for the first time, you should listen carefully for its general idea.

In the early 1950s, researchers found that people {{U}} {{U}} 1 {{/U}} {{/U}}lower on intelligence tests if they spoke more than one language. Research in the 60s found the {{U}} {{U}} 2 {{/U}} {{/U}}Bilingual people did better than {{U}} {{U}} 3 {{/U}} {{/U}}- people who speak only one language. So which is it?

But researcher Ellen Bialy stock says it probably does make you better at certain skills. "Imagine driving down the highway," says she. "There're many things that could{{U}} {{U}} 5 {{/U}} {{/U}}your attention and you really need to be able to {{U}} {{U}} 6 {{/U}} {{/U}}all of them. Why would bilingualism make you any better at that?" And the answer, she says, is that bilingual people are often better at controlling their attention - a function called the executive control system. "It's quite possibly the most important {{U}} {{U}} 7 {{/U}} {{/U}}system we have because it's where all of your decisions about what to {{U}} {{U}} 8 {{/U}} {{/U}}to, what to ignore, what to process are made. " The best method to measure the executive control system is called the Stroop Test.{{U}} {{U}} 9 {{/U}} {{/U}}. So you would have the word blue written in red, but you have to say red But blue is so noticeable , {{U}} {{U}} 10 {{/U}} {{/U}}.That's the executive control system. {{U}} {{U}} 11 {{/U}} {{/U}}They need to suppress one to be able to speak in the other.
