Illiteracy may be considered more as an abstract concept than a condition. When a famous English writer used the (1)_____ over two hundred years ago, he was actually (2)_____ to people who could (3)_____ read Greek or Latin. (4)_____,it seems unlikely that university examiners had this sort of (5)_____ in mind when they reported on "creeping illiteracy" in a report on their students’ final examination in 1988. (6)_____ the years, university lecturers have been (7)_____ of an increasing tendency towards grammatical sloppiness, poor spelling and general imprecision (8)_____ their students’ ways of writing; and sloppy writing is all (9)_____ often a reflection of sloppy thinking. Their (10)_____ was that they had (11)_____ to do teaching their own subject (12)_____ teaching their undergraduates to write. Some lecturers believe that they have a(n) (13)_____ to stress the importance of maintaining standards of dear thinking (14)_____ the written word in a world dominated by (15)_____ communications and images. They (16)_____ on the connection between clear thinking and a form of writing that is not only clear, but also sensitive to (17)_____ of meaning. The same lecturers argue that undergraduates appear to be the victims of a "softening process" that begins (18)_____ the teaching of English in schools, but this point of view has, not (19)_____, mused a great deal of (20)_____.
选项
A、disability
B、faculty
C、condition
D、significance
答案
A
解析
如上文所述,空白处"this sort of..."正是指上文谈到的内容。上文说到英国作家用这个词,谈论的是有些人不懂希腊文或拉丁文。不懂希腊文或拉丁文是能力上的缺失,空白处后面谈到:大学的主考官在使用这个词的时候,不太可能会想到上文所说到的这种…。因此disability(能力缺乏)放在此处语义通顺,"faculty"(才能)与文意相反。上文已讲到不能将illiteracy视作一种社会状况,"condition"(状况)不对。这里谈论的是illiteracy指的是什么,并非讨论其重要意义,因此"significance"(意义)不对。
