Top universities have been called on to publish lists of "banned" A-level subjects that may have prevented thousands of state school pupils getting on to degree courses.
The lists are said to【C1】_____subjects such as law, art and design, business studies and drama subjects primarily【C2】_____by comprehensives rather than private schools. Teachers accused universities【C3】_____putting comprehensive pupils at a【C4】_____by refusing to publish their lists. Some【C5】_____the lists were a filter(过滤器)that enabled the most【C6】_____universities to accept more private school pupils than state-educated ones.
Private school pupils are three times more【C7】_____to score the highest grade than comprehensive pupils,【C8】_____30% of the total number of "A" grades when their pupils【C9】_____for just 14% of entries. But even the brightest state school pupils,【C10】_____a string of "A" grades, stand little【C11】_____of a place at a top university this year if they have taken one or more of the A-level subjects【C12】_____the banned lists.
John Bangs said he strongly【C13】_____that there was a single unofficial list of banned subjects. "The list is built on the【C14】_____that these subjects are easier than others and not【C15】_____enough. " he said.
However, Wendy Piatt, director general of the Russell Group, said no Russell Group university block【C16】_____any A-level subject. "University websites typically include details on ’ essential’ and ’ preferred’ A-levels to help students【C17】_____their chances of gaining entry to competitive degree courses," he said. " Most【C18】_____very clear and comprehensive information on required A-level subjects and which ones will not be considered when making【C19】_____decisions. Students would be well advised to take very careful note of such【C20】_____. "
【C11】
选项
A、possibility
B、chance
C、opportunity
D、occasion
答案
B
解析
固定搭配题。本句意在表明,即使公立学校最聪明的孩子也不一定有机会上名牌大学。stand a chance of是常用搭配,意为“有……的希望,有……的可能”,符合句意。possibility“可能性”.occasion“场合”,均不符合句意;opportunity虽有“机会”之意,但不能用于该结构中。
