Top universities have been called on to publish lists of "banned" A-level subjects that may have prevented thousands of state school pupils getting on to degree courses.
The lists are said to【C1】_____subjects such as law, art and design, business studies and drama subjects primarily【C2】_____by comprehensives rather than private schools. Teachers accused universities【C3】_____putting comprehensive pupils at a【C4】_____by refusing to publish their lists. Some【C5】_____the lists were a filter(过滤器)that enabled the most【C6】_____universities to accept more private school pupils than state-educated ones.
Private school pupils are three times more【C7】_____to score the highest grade than comprehensive pupils,【C8】_____30% of the total number of "A" grades when their pupils【C9】_____for just 14% of entries. But even the brightest state school pupils,【C10】_____a string of "A" grades, stand little【C11】_____of a place at a top university this year if they have taken one or more of the A-level subjects【C12】_____the banned lists.
John Bangs said he strongly【C13】_____that there was a single unofficial list of banned subjects. "The list is built on the【C14】_____that these subjects are easier than others and not【C15】_____enough. " he said.
However, Wendy Piatt, director general of the Russell Group, said no Russell Group university block【C16】_____any A-level subject. "University websites typically include details on ’ essential’ and ’ preferred’ A-levels to help students【C17】_____their chances of gaining entry to competitive degree courses," he said. " Most【C18】_____very clear and comprehensive information on required A-level subjects and which ones will not be considered when making【C19】_____decisions. Students would be well advised to take very careful note of such【C20】_____. "
【C17】
选项
A、maximize
B、minimize
C、optimize
D、emphasize
答案
A
解析
动词辨析题。此处引用的是Wendy Piatt的话:“大学的网页上通常详细列举“重要的”和“优先的”A-levels课程,以帮助学生——获得学习有竞争性的学位课程的机会。”因此,maximize“尽量增大”符合句意。minimize“尽量减少”;optimize“完善,优化”;emphasize“强调”。
