问题     Here is a popular belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling. This is, however, a【S1】______. No school I have taught in has ever ignored spelling or considered it【S2】______as a basic skill. There are, however,【S3】______different ideas about how to teach it, or how much priority it must be given over general language development and writing ability.
    If spelling becomes the only focal point of his teacher’s interest, clearly a bright child will be likely to "play safe", this is to say, to avoid using words he is not sure of. He will tend to write only words within his spelling range, choosing to avoid【S4】______language. That’s why teachers often【S5】______the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability. In this way, students will be able to【S6】______their ideas more freely.
    I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a sensitive piece of writing about a personal experience: "This work is【S7】______! There are far too many spelling errors and your writing is illegible(难以辨认的)." It may have been a sharp【S8】______of the pupil’s technical abilities in writing, but it was also a sad reflection on the teacher who had【S9】______to read the essay, which contained some beautiful expressions of the child’s deep feelings. The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the errors, but if his priorities had centered on the child’s ideas, an expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more【S10】______to seek improvement.

A)unimportant        B)omitted               C)specifically           D)encourage
E)adventurous        F)withdrawn             G)vastly                 H)terrible
I)motivation         J)reaction              K)criticism              L)indicate
M)express            N)misunderstanding      O)resistant
【S4】
选项
答案E
解析 此处需要一个形容词作定语。从上下文的逻辑性看，adventurous(冒险的)最为合适。“choosing adventurous language”意为“选择避免使用易出错的语言”。此句意为：他往往只使用自己拼写范围内的单词，避免选择使用易出错的语言。
