问题     When Paul Gorski, the founder of an organization called Ed Change, visits colleges and universities to advise them on campus diversity, he has come to see a pattern. Initially, schools are enthusiastic,【C1】________their full commitment to ensuring their campuses are【C2】________of racial, religious, and gender bias. They【C3】________participate in surveys that measure students’【C4】________of cross-cultural relations on campus. They【C5】________international dinners, sponsor diversity days, and spend weeks writing and refining diversity statements.
    【C6】________when Gorski begins to suggest the work that he believes really【C7】________, for example, reevaluating policies, reallocating budgets, and【C8】________challenging the current situations—they stop returning his phone calls. They【C9】________someone new, and they start again. Since student bodies turn over so quickly, it always looks as if the school is making an effort,【C10】________they’re actually just staying in the same place.
    It’s true that many colleges and universities make【C11】________efforts to recruit racially, ethnically, and religiously diverse student bodies with the【C12】________of creating an integrated campus where diversity is truly【C13】________for students, preparing them to work in a global economy and a society with different cultures. Some are【C14】________willing to fight affirmative-action【C15】________in the highest courts to get there. But, as Gorski’s experience indicates, some seem to forget that the admissions office is just the beginning of the struggle【C16】________an integrated campus.
    Of course it’s hard for a university or college to purposefully【C17】________problems that they’re not aware of. Biases and resentments are often suppressed below the【C18】________invisible to all but those directly affected. Gorski says that in 14 years on the job, his surveys have always revealed unresolved issues involving race and diversity— typically there’s a profound difference between the understandings held by different【C19】________with students of color reporting that racism is still a problem, while white students and higher-level officials【C20】________that there’s anything wrong. "Diversity day is for white people to learn about people of color," Gorski says. "Generally speaking, people of color don’t need organized opportunities to learn about white people."
【C2】

选项 A、deficient
B、free
C、finite
D、rare

答案B

解析 保罗.戈尔斯基建议高校朝多元化发展。此句提到各学校很热情,可以推测,学校要保证校园里没有种族、宗教和性别歧视,故选B项free,be free of“无……的”为固定搭配。A项deficient“缺乏的”,缺乏的都是需要的东西,显然种族、宗教和性别的偏见不是学校想要的,而且该词通常与介词in连用,而不是of。学校追求的是没有任何偏见,而不是finite“有限的”,C项不合适。D项rare“稀少的”是用来修饰不普通的、珍贵的东西,显然偏见不属于此范畴。且这三项都不与be…of构成搭配。
