With a mixed feeling of pride and discontent, Prof. Mitchell sat on the front lawn of Princeton High School, watching the Class of 2004【S1】______. Her pride was for the seniors’ average SAT score of 1237, third-highest in the state, and their admission to famous universities like Harvard, Yale and Duke. As president of the high school alumni(校友)association, Ms. Mitchell deserved to【S2】______the tradition of public-education excellence.
Though, she felt quite【S3】______about Blake, her own son. He was receiving his diploma on this June afternoon only after years of struggle. More often than not, the science teacher said he was merely【S4】______of C’s. Even at that, Ms. Mitchell realized, Blake had done【S5】______better than several friends who were not【S6】______at the graduation ceremony. They were headed instead for crash courses(补习班).
"I said to myself: ’Oh, no. Please, no, ’" Ms. Mitchell recalled. "I was so hurt. These were【S7】______kids. This shouldn’t have been happening."
It did not escape Ms. Mitchell’s notice that her son and most of those less【S8】______classmates were black. They were the【S9】______of an accomplished school district’s dirty little secret, a racial achievement gap that has been【S10】______and left uncorrected for decades. Now that pattern may have to change under the pressure of the federal No Child Left Behind law.
[A] absent [F] graduate [K] bright
[B] pleased [G] capable [L] enjoy
[C] dissatisfied [H] successful [M] slightly
[D] weakness [I] hardly [N] recognized
[E] finish [J] evidence [O] present
【S6】
选项
答案
O
解析
所填词的下一句是对其上一句的进一步介绍说明。从instead一词可判断Ms.Mitchell的儿子的几个朋友做的事情和Ms.Mitchell的儿子做的事情不相同。Ms.Mitchell的儿子在这个六月的下午领到了毕业证书,那么他的几个朋友应该是没有出席毕业典礼,因此答案选present“出席的”。absent和present一样可以接 at引导的地点状语,但是其含义是“缺席的”,由于此句已有否定(not),所以排除absent。
