问题     It would be interesting to discover how many young people go to university without any clear idea of what they are going to do afterwards. If one considers the enormous variety of courses【C1】________, it is not hard to see how difficult it is for a student to select the course most suited to his【C2】________and abilities. If a student goes to university to acquire a broader【C3】________of life, to enlarge his ideas and to learn to think for himself, he will undoubtedly benefit. Schools often have too【C4】________an atmosphere, with its time tables and【C5】________, to allow him much time for independent assessment of the work he is【C6】________to do. Most students would, I believe,【C7】________a year of such exploration of different academic studies, especially those "all rounders" with no【C8】________interest. They should have longer time to【C9】________in what subject they want to take their degrees, so that in later life, they do not【C10】________and say, "I should like to have been an archaeologist.【C11】________I hadn’t taken a degree in Modern Languages, I shouldn’t have ended up as a(n)【C12】________, but it’s too late now. I couldn’t go back and begin all over again."
    There is, of course, another side【C13】________the question of how to make the best use of one’s time at university. This is the case of the student who excels in a particular branch of learning. He is immediately【C14】________by the University of his choice, and spends his three or four years becoming a specialist, emerging with a first-class Honour Degree and very【C15】________knowledge of what the rest of the world is all about. It【C16】________becomes more and more important that, if students are not to waste their【C17】________there will have to be much more【C18】________information about courses and more advice. Only in this way can we be sure that we are not to have, on the one hand, a band of specialists【C19】________of anything outside of their own subject, and on the other hand, an ever increasing number of graduates【C20】________in subjects for which there is little or no demand in the working world.
【C17】

选项 A、knowledge
B、possibilities
C、opportunities
D、abilities

答案C

解析 填入的名词作waste的宾语,C项opportunities“机会”与之衔接得当,表示“如果学生不错失他们上大学的机会”。waste an opportunity为常见搭配。waste“浪费”通常与金钱、时间、精力、机会等连用,A项knowledge“知识”、B项possibility“可能性”和D项ability “能力”都不与waste搭配。
