For centuries, boys were top of the class. But these days, that’s no longer the【C1】______.
A new study by the OECD, examined how 15-year-old boys and girls performed at reading, mathematics and science. Boys still score somewhat better at maths, and in science the genders are【C2】______equal. But when it comes to the students who really【C3】______, the difference is obvious: boys are 50% more likely than girls to fall【C4】______of basic standards in all three areas.
Why are girls performing better at school than their male classmates?
First, girls read more than boys. Reading【C5】______is the basis upon which all other learning is built. When boys don’t do well at reading, their performance in other school subjects【C6】______too.
Second, girls spend more time on homework. Researchers suggest that doing homework【C7】______by teachers is linked to better performance in maths, reading and science. Boys, it【C8】______, spend more of their free time in the virtual world: they are 17% more likely to play online games than girls every day. They also use the Internet more.
Third, peer pressure plays a【C9】______. A lot of boys decide early on that they are just too cool for school which means they’re more likely to be【C10】______in class. Teachers mark them down for this. In anonymous(匿名的)tests, boys perform better. In fact, the gender gap in reading drops by a third when teachers don’t know the gender of the pupil they are marking.

【C3】
选项
答案
N
解析
空格位于who引导的定语从句中,从句中缺少谓语成分,关系词指代的主语为复数且动作发生在现在,故应填入动词原形。上文提到,男生在数学上的分数稍微高些,而男女生在理科方面的分数大致相等。本句句首的but表转折,故本句所表达的含义应该与上文相反,即说到确实很努力的学生时,这种差别很明显,故空格处应填入struggle“努力,奋斗”。备选的动词set“布置”不符合文意,故排除。
