Miller was looking for a college experience that was【C1】______on both meaning and action.
"I was especially【C2】______to this program because it is much easier to make a lasting change in a community when you have the【C3】______of the administration of the school," said the 20-year-old from East Prospect, Pennsylvania. Widener is not【C4】______in its creative curriculum: a number of schools now include community service as part of class work
During the 1960s and 1970s, universities were often the【C5】______of student protests, characterized as ivory-tower institutions【C6】______the greater problems in society.【C7】______these days, many universities are【C8】______the forefront of encouraging students to【C9】______social change. "It’s very【C10】______, at all different kinds of colleges, from small liberal-arts colleges to big universities and community colleges," says Debra Humphreys, a spokesperson for the Association of American Colleges and Universities. According to a 2009【C11】______by the AACU, at least 68 percent of its members are including credit-bearing courses that【C12】______service learning.
Colleges and universities are【C13】______community service with every type of subject.

Last year【C15】______1,800 students elected to take at least one of the 60 "academically based community service" courses offered through the Netter Center for Community Partnerships.
At Bryn Mawr College, math professor Victor Don-nay links math to projects【C16】______sustainability, like the savings from eliminating dining trays in dorm cafeterias. It’s【C17】______to see how math can be used to make a difference in the world, Donnay says. "As they did the projects, the【C18】______of effort they put in and their【C19】______for figuring out these problems was much higher than in a【C20】______class."

选项
A、different from
B、apart from
C、safe from
D、disconnected from
答案
D
解析
文中对During the 1960s and 1970s以及these days的大学的状况进行比较。根据下文“如今,很多大学鼓励学生……社会变革”,可推出以前学生在学校的象牙塔里,很少参与社会变革,与社会脱节,故答案为D项disconnected from“脱离”。
