American higher education stands on the brink(边缘) of chaos. 1 have so many spent so long learning so little.
The present crisis 2 the increasingly widespread acceptance among faculty and administrators of the fatal educational 3 that a student should not be required to do any academic work that 4 him. If a student prefers not to study science or history or literature, he is 5 to attain his degree without studying any science, history, or literature.
Throughout the country the attempt is being 6 to provide students with what is advertised as a 7 education without requiring of them the necessary self-discipline and hard work. Students have been led to believe they can achieve _8_ effort, that all they need to do in order to obtain a good education is skip (跳跃) casually down the merry road to learning.

选项
A、without
B、through
C、despite
D、by
答案
A
解析
美国的教育原则使学生认为他们可以不通过努力就能有所成就,所以排除与文意相反的[B]through“通过”;[C]despite“尽管”,有让步含义,也不符合句意;[D]by通常不跟effort搭配,而常用through one’s effort“通过某人的努力”;因此选without“没有……”,表示“不用付出任何努力”。
