Since, we are told, 80 to 90 percent of all instruction in the typical university is by the lecture method, we should give close attention【C1】______this form of education. There is, I think,【C2】______truth in Patricia Nelson Limerick’s observation that "【C3】______is an unnatural act, an act for which God did not design humans. It is perfectly all right, now and【C4】______, for a human to be possessed by the urge to speak, and to speak【C5】______others remain silent. But to do this 【C6】______, one hour and 15 minutes at a time? I do not believe that this is what the Creator【C7】______humans to do. "
The strange, almost incomprehensible fact is that many professors, just as they feel【C8】______to write dully, believe that they【C9】______lecture dully. To show enthusiasm is to risk【C10】______unscientific, unobjective; it is to appeal【C11】______the students’ emotions rather than their【C12】______. Thus the ideal lecture is one filled with facts and read with an【C13】______tone.
The cult(推崇)of lecturing dully, like the cult of writing dully, goes back some years. Edward Shils, recalls the professors he【C14】______at the University of Pennsylvania in his youth. They seemed " a priesthood,【C15】______uneven in their merits but【C16】______in their bearing. Some read from old lecture notes and then haltingly explained the thumb-worn last lines. Others lectured from cards that had【C17】______for years, to judge by the worn edges. The teachers began on time, ended on time, and left the room【C18】______saying a word more to their students, very【C19】______being detained(留住)by questioners. No questions were【C20】______in class, and there were no office hours. "
【C13】
选项
A、unchanged
B、unnatural
C、untruthful
D、artificial
答案
A
解析
形容词辨义题。该句描述理想的讲座是什么样的,特点之一是需要be filled with facts“事实纷呈”,另一个特点是讲授要带有一种什么样的语气。unchanged“没有变化的”;unnatural“不自然的”;untruthful“不诚实的”;artificial“做作的”。由该段两次出现的dully一词,以及该段的段落大意,可以知道讲授法非常枯燥,教授不带任何感情色彩,因此,unchanged符合句意。本句意为“因此理想的讲座是事实纷呈,并且是以一成不变的单调语气朗读的。”
