问题 According to the text, the author’s attitude toward John Hood is one of ______.
To which of the following statements would the author most probably agree?

选项 A、The contribution from alumni won’t lure ample donation by the wealthy.
B、The civilized rationality is gradually spoiled by fractious nature.
C、The row going on in Oxford is passionate but beside the point.
D、American’s top universities are somewhat apprehensive of their current status but over-confident of their prospect.

答案C

解析 本题既是一道中心主旨题,又是一道细节题,测试考生对原文中心主旨句的识别和正确理解能力。本题的答案信息来源在第三段的第一、二、三句。这三句话的大意是:"Hood先生坚持牛津大学的管理需要大检修是正确的。虽然他的建议对参与这场争论的人士而言似乎是极端的,但是他的建议并不足够极端。…更根本的问题在于牛津大学与政府的关系"。作者的言外之意是:虽然牛津大学目前的争议非常激烈,但是还未对准其根本问题(即:牛津与政府的关系问题)。由此可以推断本题的正确选项应该是"The row going on in Oxford is passionate but beside the point"(牛津大学进行的争论是激烈的,但是偏离了要点)。考生在阅读时要善于识别和理解原文的中心主旨句,这对理解全文和解题均十分重要。
