问题     In a telephone survey of more than 2 000 adults, 21 % said they believed the sun revolved around the earth. An additional 7 % did not know which revolved around【C1】______. I have no doubt that【C2】______all of these people were taught in school that the earth revolved around the sun; they may even have written it【C3】______a test. But they never【C4】______their incorrect mental models of planetary(行星的)motion because their every day observation didn’t support【C5】______their teachers told them: People see the sun "moving" across the sky as morning turns to night, and the earth seems stationary(静止的) 【C6】______that is happening.
    Students can learn the right answers【C7】______heart in class, and yet never combined them with their working models of the world. The objectively correct answer the professor accepts and the【C8】______personal understanding of the world can exist side by side, each unaffected by the other.
    Outside of class, the student continues to use the【C9】______model because it has always worked well in that circumstance. Unless professors address specific errors in students’ personal models of the world, students are not【C10】______to replace them with the correct one.
【C4】

选项 A、formed
B、altered
C、believed
D、thought

答案B

解析 连接词but引导的这个句子相对于上句而言,语气发生转折。上文说到:虽然他们在学校里学过甚至在考卷上也答过地球绕太阳旋转这一知识,因此,下文应该是说:但是他们并没有改变自己心目中不正确的行星运行的模式。B项altered意为“改变,转变”,在此正符合题意。A项formed(形成),C项believed(相信)和D项thought(认为)用在本句中正好与原意相反。
