During the 1992 presidential campaign, Hillary Rodham Clinton observed, "Our lives are a mixture of different roles. Most of us are doing the best we can to find whatever the right balance is... For me, that balance is family, work, and service."
As an【C1】______at Wellesley College, Hillary mixed academic excellence with school government. Speaking at graduation, she said, "The challenge now is to practice politics as the art of making what appears to be impossible,【C2】______."

In 1978, President Jimmy Carter【C4】______her to the board of the Legal Services Corporation, and Bill Clinton became governor of Arkansas. Their daughter, Chelsea, was born in 1980.
Hillary served as Arkansas’s First Lady for 12 years, balancing family, law, and public service. She【C5】______the Arkansas Educational Standards Committee, co-founded the Arkansas Advocates for Children and Families, and served on the boards of the Arkansas Children’s Hospital, Legal Services, and the Children’s Defense Fund.

She wrote a weekly newspaper column entitled "Talking It Over," which focused on her experiences as First Lady and her observations of women, children, and families she has met around the world. Her 1996 book It Takes a Village and Other Lessons Children Teach Us was a best seller, and she received a Grammy Award for her recording of it.

选项
答案
B
解析
此处应为动词的过去式,而且是及物动词。从原文该段首句可以知道接下来将要讲到希拉里在工作方面的出色表现,而从第2句的结构可以知道空白处的单词应与cofounded,served并列,表示希拉里在阿肯色州教育标准委员会的工作角色,这样看来,chaired一词最为合适。
