问题 According to the passage, it is not surprising that ______.
The desire to make education subservient to the desires of industry is attractive because ______.

选项 A、the goals are easier to define and measure
B、some people take a wider view of education
C、economic competition is so intense these days
D、youth are lacking the skills to compete in the modern economy

答案C

解析 此题考查使教育服从于工业需要之所以受人瞩目的原因是什么。subservient是超纲词,但是可以根据构词法进行猜测:前缀sub意为“在…下”,词根serv意为“to serve(服务)”,后缀ient是常见的形容词后缀,由此可知subservient意为“服从”。第二段第一句中的education must...training the youth...to compete in such markets和第三句中making education the handmaiden of the job market指的是同一件事情,即使教育服从于工业需要。而这种现象的原因是第二段第一句中的the US is seen as being in desperate, almost cut-throat competition with industrial neighbors,因此选项C符合题干要求。desperate“绝望的,孤注一掷的”,cut-throat“竞争激烈的,无情的”。
