Part IIIReading Comprehension(40 minutes)Section ADirections: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks. You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of words given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage through carefully before making your choice. Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. Please mark the corresponding letter for each blank in Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.A team of researchers led by Priyanka Joshi examined the degree to which men and women relied on "communicative abstraction" to verbally convey their ideas and emotions(communicative abstraction, according to the researchers, reflects the tendency of people to use "abstrac speech that focuses on the broader picture and 26 purpose of action rather than concrete speech focusing on details and the means of 27 action." Interestingly, they found that men were far more likely to speak in the abstract than were women.To arrive at this 28 ,the researchers examined the linguistic(语言的)patterns of men and women in over 400,000blog posts written on websites. To do this, the researchers compared abstractness ratings for 29 140,000commonly used words in the English language. Words considered to be concrete could be easily visualized, such as "table" or "chair". Words that were more 30 to visualize, for example, "justice" or "morality" were considered to be more abstract. They found that men used 31 more abstract language in their blog posts.What is the 32 of this effect? The researchers suggest that power differences between the genders—that is, men having more power in society—might be a key determinant(决定因素). For instance, in a follow-up study conducted with a sampl of 300 students, the researchers 33 power dynamic in an interpersonal setting to see if this would influence communicative abstraction. They found that participants in a high-power interview role were more likely to give abstract descriptions of behaviors than were participants in a low-power interview role. This suggests that communicating abstractly does not reflect a 34 tendency of men or women but rather 35 within specific contexts.A approximatelyB manipulatedC astonishingD recommendedE conclusionF refiningG difficultH signalsI emergesJ significantlyK fixedL scoresM ignoredN ultimateO legally
