选项 _________63
A:reduction
B:improvement
C:interference
D:implication
答案B
解析前一句提到音乐训练可以提高沟通技巧和改善语言障碍，可见他们发现的应该是提升音乐技能与学习说话有着相同的（same）大脑活动过程。the same as…与……相同。unique独特的；different不同的；strange奇怪的。
这项发现应该能够帮助在学习上有障碍的儿童。help帮助；tell告诉；remind提醒；entertain娱乐。
这个句子的意思是：她说音乐训练与整合不同的信息相关，比如聆听音乐、看音符、触碰乐器，以及观察其他音乐演奏者等。shape塑造；relate关于；enhance加强，增强。只有 involve能够表示“涉及，与……相关”的意思。
空格前一句讲的是音乐训练的过程，因此应该选择能表示过程的词汇，即D项。form 形式；step步骤；point观点；process过程。
结合语境可知，本篇文章讲的是音乐训练与学习说话之间的关系，因此选择C项。play 玩耍；sing歌唱；speak说话；think思考。
pass through是常用表达，意思是“经过，通过”的意思，用在空格处表明说话和音乐都通过脑干这个神经系统组织。没有use through这个短语。look through仔细查阅；put through 完成。
由常识及语境可知，大脑控制着我们讲话的能力。develop发展，开发；control控制； assess评判；observe观察，遵守。
空格前一句表明专家的观点，认为脑干不能被改善或改变；空格后一句表明Krauss及其团队的观点，即音乐训练可以改善脑干活动。两者是转折关系，故选择转折连词but。
这个研究涉及的应该是具有不同音乐能力的个人。instrument乐器；ability能力；type 类型；contact接触。本篇文章并没有对乐器和音乐类型进行探讨。
根据上文可知，音乐训练与学习说话涉及相同的大脑活动过程，由此可知这些电子设备观测的是大脑活动。physical体力的；musical音乐的；speech演讲，说话；brain大脑。
similar to的意思是“与……相似”，是英语中的习惯表达。
这个句子的意思是：人们接受音乐训练的时间越长，他们对音乐的声音和节奏就会越敏感。familiar熟悉的；inactive不活跃的；critical讽刺的，批判的；sensitive敏感的。
这个句子的意思是：那些接受过音乐训练的人在感官测试中取得的进步也最大。re-duction减少；improvement改善，提升；interference干扰；implication蕴含。
第一段最后一句提到，音乐训练能够帮助在学习上有障碍的儿童，因此选择B项。style 风格；disability残疾，无能；interest兴趣；approach方法，通道。
空格前表示的是利用音乐改善听力，选项中表示听见的hear与听力相关。read阅读； write写；hear听见；change改变。
