One place where children (3)_____ A-characteristics is school, which is, by its very nature, a highly competitive institution. Too many schools adopt the ’win at all costs’ moral standard and (4)_____ their success by sporting (5)_____ The current passion for making children compete against their classmates or against the clock produces a two-layer system, in which competitive A-type seem in some way better than their B-type fellows.

The merits of competition by examination are somewhat (12)_____, but competition in the certain knowledge of failure is positively harmful.

选项
A、outcome
B、effect
C、consequence
D、denouement
答案
C
解析
名词辨析。outcome结果,成果;effect效果,作用,影响;consequence结果;denouement结局。consequence和outcome 强调一系列事件的独特的结果。effect强调事物的效用。consequence多指有害的后果或副作用。denouement多指戏剧性收场。根据句意,可知这种结果是危险的,因而只能选consequence。
