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."
【C7】
选项 A、troubles
B、distresses
C、counts
D、emphasizes
答案C
解析 从for example后面的内容“重新评估政策，重新分配预算”等可以看出。这些工作对实现校园没有种族、宗教和性别歧视是很重要的，故选C项counts“有重要意义”。首先可排除及物动词B项distresses“使痛苦，使苦恼”和D项emphasizes“强调”，因为空格后没有接宾语。重新评估政策和重新分配预算这类事情并不属于麻烦，而是事关学校能否破除偏见的关键。A项troubles“麻烦”不合逻辑。
