0514 TPS Finish the Sentence Contest－Answer and Explanation你是接龍的高手嗎? 正確解答!
Answer: We believe the sentence is best completed this way:
“Jean Piaget’s analysis of the cognitive development of children startled his esteemed colleagues in the same way a precocious child startles his teachers.”
Children are the theme of the sentence, the study of them by a researcher who began by studying his own children. His conclusions were ground-breaking in their perspective, though when seen in hindsight were quickly accepted as genuine insights into intellectual development. To give the sentence cohesion, a natural choice is to finish it in references to childhood intellect. Thus, we pull the sentence together by comparing the relationship of the researcher and his professional colleagues to that of a child with mature brainpower and his teacher. Compatible imagery can help unify a sentence for a reader.
本句的主題是兒童，討論皮亞傑對兒童的研究，他的研究先從自已的小孩開始，研究結論在觀點上極具突破性，雖然以後見之明來看，這些觀點確實是對智力發展了不起的見解，現在很容易就能接受。要讓句子保持凝聚力，結尾自然要提到兒童的智力。因此，這裡用智力早熟的兒童和老師的關係，比擬皮亞傑與學術同儕的關係，結合整個句子。適切的比喻有助讀者統合句子。
