问题     In West Virginia and in New York, one out of four students drops out of high school. In Washington, DC, the【S1】______are even worse. One half of all high school students never【S2】______Nationwide, the overall dropout rate is【S3】______29%. Many say they drop out because they are bored. Because of this, U.S. educators are trying to figure out a way to stop this【S4】______trend. In Milwaukee, some schools are having lotteries for used cars for students who stay in school. In Philadelphia, at-risk students are being【S5】______summer jobs for staying in school. But in a New Jersey high school, one principal is using money, not jobs, as an incentive(刺激).
    This school received a hundred thousand dollar【S6】______to pay students who are at risk of dropping out. When these students go to school on time, bring their notebooks, and do their homework, they【S7】______five dollars a day. This means students can bring home a twenty-five dollar check every week for going to classes five days in a row. While the program is new, the principal claims that he has already achieved a higher rate of【S8】______with this money incentive. But some say it is too early to talk about the program’s【S9】______. Still others feel that even if it does work, using money as an incentive is【S10】______

[A] appropriately       [F] disturbing        [K] approximately
[B] misleading          [G] awarded           [L] rewarded
[C] positive            [H] contents          [M] earn
[D] success             [I] statistics        [N] grant
[E] absence             [J] graduate          [O] attendance
【S4】
选项
答案F
解析 从前面的用词even worse和bored等都可以看出这种趋势必然是一种不好的趋势，观察列表可以发现，表示negative“负面的，消极意义的”词是disturbing。这种趋势对于educators来说就是disturbing。B misleading虽然也是表示negative的词，但是从上下文中看不出dropout“辍学”是被主观引导或误导的，因此排除。
