An unusual characteristic of American university life is its competitiveness. Institutions of the same class【C1】______ for faculty, research funds, students and public attention. That Harvard and Stanford, for example, actively recruit and compete for students is quite【C2】______ to establishments(教育机构)such as Tokyo or Kyoto universities,【C3】______ an entrance examination determines all. It is almost【C4】______ unusual in most parts of the world for one institution to hire professors【C5】______ from another by offering a higher salary and / or better working conditions. In Japan, and to a lesser extent elsewhere, universities hire almost【C6】______ their own graduates. In-breeding is rampant—a sharp contrast with most departments in top American universities.
Institutional competitiveness has some negative【C7】______ —particularly if your university loses too many encounters with the market. The dark side includes too much movement by professional stars from one university to another in【C8】______ of personal gain, and a consequently lower level of institutional presence. Competition also leads to invidious(招人反感的)comparison among fields of study, with excessive【C9】______ within the university going to those subjects where "market power" is strong(computer sciences, yes; English, no). However, the benefits of American-style competition among universities outweigh the costs. It has【C10】______ complacency and encouraged the drive for excellence and change.
【C2】
选项
A、unreasonable
B、incomprehensible
C、impossible
D、insensible
答案
B
解析
四个选项的意思分别是:A.不理智的,不合理的;B.无法理解的,不能接受的;C.不可能的,不会发生的;D.无知觉的,麻木不仁的。根据上下文,并且注意到空格后面的介词to,我们得知:哈佛大学和斯坦福大学的做法对东京大学或京都大学来说是无法理解的,是不能接受的。所以正确答案是B项incomprehensible。
