In his weekly radio and video address, Obama said as many as a quarter of American students are not【C1】______high school and far too few young people are getting college degrees.

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.
" Experience has taught us that the law has some serious【C9】______that are hurting our children instead of helping them," Obama said, making plain that education will be one of his key【C10】______issues into next November’ s vote.

选项
答案
J
解析
分析该句的句子结构可以推断出空格处应为以辅音开头的单数名词。由下文可知,该项法律因种种弊端而受到世人的诟病,而且奥巴马总统自己也认为该项法律对孩子弊大于利,因此对该项法律他采取的应该是消极的态度。备选项中只有loosening符合要求,意为“放宽(限制或法律)”,故答案选J。
