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.

选项 A、little
B、nothing
C、plenty
D、enough
答案C
解析 此处的语境为：他们的苦衷是，不教大学生进行写作，他们仅教自己的学科就够忙的了，而不是没有事做。故little、nothing两项首先排除，剩下两项都有充足的意思，可进一步考虑。"plenty"的英语解释为：a more than adequate number，quantity，or amount，a full supply，enough and to spate，即过多，太多。"enough"英文释义为：a quantity that satisfies desire，is adequate to the want，or is equal to the power，即足够，能满足。在这里谈抱怨，说他们要做的应该说太多了，多得做不完，"plenty"与此相符，正确。
