behind competence is quite simple: that one can state what people should do in behavioral terms, and then _____41____ whether a person has succeeded in meeting that task or not.

involve failure in aiming for something that is unusually good. Such things simply cannot be _____55____ by the standard of competence w here the mediocre(平凡的) is the gold standard.
