【C3】

选项 A、complicated
B、visioning
C、important
D、regular

答案B

解析 此处需要填入一个形容词,与strategic“战略性的”共同修饰后面的work,而且做这项工作的目的是make those larger changes at the school“让学校发生更大的变化”,所以这样的工作涉及学校将来的发展,故B.visioning“有远见的,前瞻性的”为正确答案。complicated“复杂的”和regular“普通的;正式的”与策略和工作目的都不搭。important“重要的”虽然词义的方向正确,但是visioning比important表意更精准,故排除important。
