With the 2012 campaign for the U. S. presidency heating up, Obama is speaking【C4】______often about education, a key issue for his political base. His $447 billion job creation plan includes money for hiring teachers and school repairs, and on Friday he announced a【C5】______of " No Child Left Behind," a decade-old education measure introduced by former President George W. Bush that seeks to hold schools【C6】______for students’ performance. "No Child" has been widely【C7】______for being inflexible, requiring teachers to adhere to a narrow curriculum【C8】______mostly at ensuring that students pass standardized tests.

选项
答案
A
解析
分析该句的句子结构可以推断出空格处应为名词复数。由空格后that引导的定语从句“在伤害孩子而不是在帮助他们”可知,空格处应该是说该法律的不好之处。备选项中只有flaws一个名词复数且有“缺陷,瑕疵”之意,故答案选A。
