问题 Students of economics are in revolt again．This year，65 groups of students from 30 countries established an International Student Initiative for Pluralism in Economics．In no other subject do students express such organized dissatisfaction with their teaching．It seems，however，to little lasting effect．Impermanence is inherent in student life：they don suits，collect their first salary and leave their complaints behind until the same gripes are rediscovered by a new group of 19-year-olds with similar naive hopes of changing the world．Still，recurrent dissatisfaction among both students and employers suggests they have a point．
    One cause of the problem is not specific to economics．Modern universities prize research above teaching，to a degree that would astonish people outside the system．who imagine its primary purpose is to educate the young．In reality，teaching ability plays a negligible role in university hiring．Tenure and promotion decisions．Many academic staff regard teaching as a nuisance that gets in the way of their“own”work．If most students were not having such a good time outside the classroom．They would be angrier than they are．They should be．
    Students demand for more pluralism in the economics curriculum IS well made．Yet much oflhe“heterodox economics”the Manchester students suggest including is flaky，the creation of people with their own political agenda，whether Marxist or neoliberal；or of those who cannot do the mathematics the dominant rational choice paradigm requires．Their professors reject the introduction of these alternative schemes for the same good reasons their science colleagues would reject phlogiston theory or creationism．
    Yet teachers are mistaken in their conformity，to a single methodological approach—encapsulated in the claim that has taken hold in the past four decades that approaches not based on rational choice foundations are unscientific or“not economics”．The need is not SO much to teach alternative paradigms of economics as to teach that pragmatism，not paradigm，is the key to economic understanding．
    This eclecticism is reflected in the curriculum proposals．The subject of economics is not a method of analysis but a set of problems—the problems that drew students to the subject in the first place．The proper scope of economics is any and all ideas that bear usefully on these topics just as the proper scope of medicine is any and all therapies that help the patient．
    请回答下列问题。
Judging from the context，what does the word“don”(Para．1)mean?
选项 A、Destroy．
B、Wear．
C、Discard．
D、Buy．
答案B
解析 含义题。根据题干关键词定位到第一段倒数第二句，句意为“学生生活本质上就是暂时的：他们——西服，拿到自己的第一份薪水，就将过去的抱怨抛之脑后，直到新一批同样怀抱改变世界的天真愿望的19岁的年轻人，再次生出同样的牢骚为止”。可知don与collect、leave并列，并且具有逻辑关系，即学生先穿戴整齐，去工作，然后拿薪水。A项“毁坏”，C项“丢弃”和D项“购买”均不符合题意，故排除。故本题选B。
