Music produces profound and lasting changes in the brain. Schools should add music classes, not cut them.

【C16】
选项
A、trouble
B、distract
C、disclose
D、transform
答案
A
解析
上下文语义题。空格位于that引导的定语从句中,应填入动词充当从句谓语,说明先行词the budget crises “预算危机”如何作用于public schools。危机通常会带来不好的影响,且 “不断地”一词体现了动作发生的持续性。四个选项中A项trouble “烦扰”最符合要求,填入文中表示“不断困扰公立学校的预算危机”。B项distract “使分心”一般是指无法专心做某事,填入文中表示“不断使公立学校分心的预算危机”。C项disclose“揭露”的施动者通常是人,不宜说the budget crises。D项transform “改变”指形式、外表或本质的彻底改变,与先行词the budget crises和宾语public schools无法构成通顺完整的意思。
