问题     Illiteracy may be considered more as an abstract concept than a condition. When a famous English writer used the (1)_____ over two hundred years ago, he was actually (2)_____ to people who could (3)_____ read Greek or Latin. (4)_____,it seems unlikely that university examiners had this sort of (5)_____ in mind when they reported on "creeping illiteracy" in a report on their students’ final examination in 1988. (6)_____ the years, university lecturers have been (7)_____ of an increasing tendency towards grammatical sloppiness, poor spelling and general imprecision (8)_____ their students’ ways of writing; and sloppy writing is all (9)_____ often a reflection of sloppy thinking. Their (10)_____ was that they had (11)_____ to do teaching their own subject (12)_____ teaching their undergraduates to write. Some lecturers believe that they have a (n) (13)_____ to stress the importance of maintaining standards of clear thinking (14)_____ the written word in a world dominated by (15)_____ communications and images.

选项 A、verbal
B、visual
C、oral
D、factual
答案B
解析 解此题的关键在于空白后的communications and images，A项"verbal(文字上的)"为强干扰项，因为前面写的都与writing有关，考生此处很容易选verbal，但是如将verbal放在这里，那空白后的"images"无从解释。实际上，此处的意思是说在一个视频通信和图像主导的社会里(写作技能相对锻炼得比较少)，教师们感到有必要告诉学生写作与思维的重要联系。故空白处应选"visual"，这样空白后的"images"也能说得通了。oral(口头的)和factual(事实的)则比较容易排除。
