After becoming president of Purdue University in 2013, Mitch Daniels asked the faculty to prove that their students have actually achieved one of higher education’s most important goals: critical thinking skills. Two years before, a nationwide study of college graduates had shown that more than a third had made no【C1】______ gains in such mental abilities during their school years. Mr. Daniels needed to【C2】______ the high cost of attending Purdue to its students and their families. After all, the percentage of Americans who say a college degree is "very important" has fallen【C3】______ in the last 5-6 years.
Purdue now has a pilot test to assess students’ critical thinking skills. Yet like many college teachers around the U.

However, the professors need not worry so much. The results of a recent experiment showed that professors can use【C6】______ metrics to measure how well students do in three key areas; critical thinking, written communication, and quantitative literacy.
Despite the success of the experiment, the actual results are worrisome, and mostly【C7】______ earlier studies. The organizers of the experiment concluded that far fewer students were achieving at high levels on a critical thinking than they were doing for written communication or quantitative literacy. And that conclusion is based only on students nearing graduation.

Knowledge-based degrees are still important, but employers are【C9】______ advanced thinking skills from college graduate. If the intellectual worth of a college degree can be【C10】______ measured, more people will seek higher education—and come out better thinkers.
A) accurately I) predominance
B) confirm J) presuming
C) demanding K) reputation
D) doubtful L) significant
E) drastically M) signify
F) justify N) simultaneously
G) monopolized O) standardized H) outcome
【C10】
选项
答案
A
解析
空格前为情态动词加be动词,空格后为动词的被动形式,故本空需要填入一个副词。本文一直在谈论如何评价大学文凭的智力价值,而且其会影响人们是否愿意接受高等教育,因此大学文凭的智力价值只有得到准确的评价,才会促使更多人追求高等教育。备选项中只有accurately(精确地,准确地)符合,故答案为A。
