D: produced
参考答案
参考解析
解析：收集数据用动词collect, invent和enable不能和data搭配，misuse虽可以和data搭配，但意思讲不通。
对……产生争论，debate后面用over，属固定搭配。其他几个选项均不能这样用。
取得结果，可以说acquire results，其他几个选项意思讲不通。
examine the work，审查（研究）了……的著作。examine在这里的意思是“审查”。 written和produced虽然也可和work搭配，但结合上下文，逻辑上讲不通，created一般不和work搭配使用。
size表示“大小”，这里指大脑的大小，因为问题提到智力与大脑大小的关系，所以这里选A。
从前后逻辑来看，这里的意思应该是“因为，所以”，只有选项D才有这个意思，所以选D。
Gould重复了Morton的数据，没有得出与此一致的结果，“结果”用results表示，其他几个选项意思与原文不符。
procedure的意思是“程序、过程”,“采用……程序或过程”，用动词use，所以选项C 为正确答案。
此句的意思是说大脑的大小并不代表智力水平，而不是其他，因为通篇都在谈大脑与智力的问题，所以选C。
这里只能从上下文的意思去判断，scientific work指科学工作，其他几个选项虽可以和work搭配，但意思讲不通。
这里是被动语态，从搭配上来讲都说得过去，但意思上只有选项B才说得通。
句子前面有so，把句子后面助动词提前是倒装句，本句时态为一般过去时，所以应将did提前，故选D。
此题也必须在读懂上下文意思的基拙上才能做出判断，因为recent可以和四个选项搭配。从上下文判断，这里指的是研究方面的进展情况，故选A。
此处在陈述一个事实，用it is said that这种结构。
最后一句为并列句，只有while为并列连词，其他几个词不能这样用。故选B。
