问题 PASSAGE THREE
What does the author mean by saying the notion of meritocracy is "yet another myth" (Para. 3)?

选项

答案The legendary meritocracy doesn’t exist in reality.

解析语义题。原文第三段第一句指出，精英体制的理念其实不过是又一个传说；该段最后一句提到，美国梦(包括精英主义的理念)与美国人的生活现实是有矛盾的；而第八段第一句直接指出精英体制的核心理念其实是一种在美国并不存在的平等。可见这种精英体制的理念虽然根植于美国社会，但是在现实中并不存在，只是一种传说，故答案为“The legendary meritocracy doesn’t exist in reality. ”。
