Directions: Fill in each of the following blanks with ONE word to complete the meaning of the passage. Write your answer on ANSWER SHEET II.

As children we start 51 a natural curiosity about everything around us, and during the maturation process this curiosity can be stimulated, buffered or severely attenuated by our environment and experience. The future success of research in science and engineering depends 52 our society recognizing the crucial role played by stimulation of mental processes early in life. Pattern recognition, analytical thinking and similar abilities need to be stimulated from birth onward. To destroy this natural curiosity or to attenuate the joy of discovery is the greatest disservice we do 53 the developing person.

For those who reach maturity with their natural curiosity intact and enhanced by education, the joy of discovery is a strong driver of success. But why are so 54 of our capable students pursuing the level of education required for a successful research career? Is it 55 we have dampened their curiosity? Have we failed to let them experience the joy of discovery? Is it because the media sometimes portrays scientists and engineers 56 nerds? Is it because too many of us currently involved 57 the research enterprise have become disenchanted with our circumstances and therefore paint a bleak future for potential scientists and engineers? Perhaps entirely different factors are 58 play in the decision to not become scientists and engineers.

We have too frequently portrayed science and engineering as professions that are all-encompassing. We have portrayed research as a profession that requires long and grueling hours in the laboratory to achieve success. We have 59 to promote the excitement and exhilaration of discovery. We have not promoted the fact that it is not only very common 60 very reasonable to have a successful research career and an exciting and normal personal life.
