　　(2015·常州教学质检)I read mostly fiction before I was introduced to CaMalcolm Gladwells work.

　　In his TED talk called “Choice, Happiness, and Spaghetti Sauce”， the economist and journalist used the __1__ of Pepsi and spaghetti sauce to argue that giving people choices makes them happy. If I had only heard his conclusion statement and __2__ the artfully­manipulated (巧妙处理的) statistical evidence that he __3__， I would have been itching (渴望的) to know how he could argue such an interesting point. But he __4__ his argument like a detective story, with each puzzle piece __5__ to the conclusion.

　　__6__， I borrowed his book Outliers：The Story of Success from the library. Each chapter had its own story and argument, and all of the arguments were, __7__ Gladwell, about __8__ that led to an individuals success in the world.

　　The __9__ of his research was amazing. In the first chapter, he __10__ the reasons behind the crash of Korean Air Flight 801 in 1997, which __11__ more than 220 lives. The disaster took place partly because the co­pilot didn?t __12__ mistakes that the pilot was making. In South Korea, it?s __13__ to contradict higher­ups even if they are doing something wrong.

　　Gladwell explained why a(n)__14__ number of Canadian hockey players are born in the first part of the year. The __15__ date for youth hockey leagues is December 31, and since hockey players born in the beginning of the year seem older, larger and more __16__ than younger players, they are more to be given more attention in training and become __17__ hockey players as adults, he wrote. Perhaps most interesting of all, Gladwell explained why Asians are so good at __18__. He said Asians get a head start when we learn how to count because our language has fewer syllables and makes numbers easier to remember.

　　Gladwell is mostly interested in answering my favorite question, “Why？”. And that’s exactly why I love his work. After reading Outliers: The Story of Success and other books like it, I found myself __19__ my commonly­accepted beliefs much more often. After all, why should we take anything __20__？
