问题 Although early work showed positive correlations between self-esteem and academic performance, modern efforts have cast doubt on the idea that higher self-esteem may actually________students to do better.

选项 A、induce
B、prick
C、tempt
D、urge

答案D

解析 本题考查动词辨析。根据although引导的让步状语可知,自尊和学业表现呈正相关关系,即自尊能促进学业表现。再结合have cast doubt on(对……表示怀疑)可知,现代研究对这一想法提出了质疑,这一想法指的就是although引导的内容,而that引导的同位语从句修饰idea,that后的内容与although引导的内容意义相似,所填词应表示“促进”的意思,且其后可接sb. to do sth. 的结构。urge sb. to do sth. 意为“敦促某人做某事”,符合语义,故答案为D项。induce sb. to do sth. 意为“劝说/诱使某人做某事”;prick意为“刺,戳”,常用prick sb. (with sth. )表示“用……戳某人”;tempt sb. to do sth. 意为“诱使某人做某事”。
