27、ork straight after school. But is it actually true? Jessika Golle of the University of Tubingen, in Germany reports in Psychological Science this week that those who have been to university indeed seem to leave with broader and more curious minds than those who have spent their immediate post-school

28、 years in vocational （職業(yè)的） training for work. However, it was not the case that university broadened minds. Rather, vocational training for work seemed to have narrowed them. The result is not quite what might be expected.Dr. Golle came to this conclusion after she and a team of colleagues studied t

29、he early careers of 2,095 German youngsters. The team used two standardized tests to assesstheir volunteers personality traits （特1點）including openness, conscientiousness （認真）and so on, and attitudes such as realistic, investigative and enterprising twice, once towards the end of each volunteer s tim

30、e at high school, and then again six years later. Of the original group, 382 had to make a choice between the academic and vocational routes, and it was on these that the researchers focused. University beckoned for 212 of them. The remaining 170 chose vocational training and a job.When it came to t

31、he second round of tests, Dr. Golle found that the personalities of both groups had not changed significantly. As for changes in altitude, again, none were noticeable in the university group. However, those who had chosen the vocational route showed marked drops in interest in tasks that are investi

32、gative and enterprising in nature. And that might restrict theirchoice of careers.The changes in attitude that the researchers recorded were more worrying. Vocational traininghas always been what Germany prides itself on. If Dr Golle is correct, and changes in attitudebrought about by the very train

33、ing are narrowing people s choices that is indeed a matter worthyof serious consideration.12. What does Dr. Colle s research suggest?A. Going to university is a mind-broadening experience.B. College students pride themselves on their education.C. Working straight after school narrows people s minds.

34、D. Attending university has apparent effects on personalities.13. What does the underlined phrase“ beckoned for in Paragraph 2 mean?A Examined.B. Attracted.C. Organized.D. Recognized14. What can we learn about vocational training?A. it is essential to scientific research.B. It leads to marked change

35、 in personality.C. It helps to broaden the volunteers minds.D. It causes less interest in investigative job.15. What is the author s attitude towards the finding?A. Skeptical.B. Optimistic.C. Concerned.D. Unclear.第二節(jié)（共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分）根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。Benefits of SportsDoing s
