问题     Reading is thought to be a kind of conversation between the reader and the text. The reader puts questions, as it were, to the text and get answers. In the light of these he puts further questions, and so on.
    For most of the time this "conversation" goes on below the level of consciousness. At times, however, we become aware of it. This is usually when we are running into difficulties, when mismatch is occurring between expectations and meaning. When successful matching is being experienced our questioning of the text continues at the unconscious level.
    Different people converse with the text differently. Some stay very close to the words on the page; others take off imaginatively from words, interpreting, criticizing, analyzing and examining. The former represents a kind of comprehension which is written in the text, The latter represents higher levels of comprehension. The balance between these is important, especially for advanced readers.
    There is another conversation which from our point of view is equally important, and that is to do not with what is read but with how it is read. We call this a "process" conversation as opposed to a "content" conversation. It is concerned not with meaning but with the strategies we employ in reading.
    If we are an advanced reader, our ability to hold a process conversation with a text is usually pretty well developed. Not so our ability to hold a content conversation. It is precisely this kind of conversation that is of importance when we are seeking to develop our reading to meet the new demands being placed upon us by studying at a higher level.
According to the passage, it is of great importance for readers at a higher level to maintain a balance between________.

选项 A、conscious and unconscious levels of comprehension
B、the readers expectations and the meaning of a text
C、lower and higher levels of comprehension
D、interpreting and criticizing a text

答案C

解析 阅读题干it is of great importance for readers at a higher level to maintain a balance between. 划线部分就是目标词,回到原文中寻找,在倒数第二段的最后一句中锁定目标词balance以及上句话中的the latter represents higher levels…,从上文中可知是维持低水平与高水平的平衡,所以与C选项相符,由此C即为正确答案。
