Answers:
  1. 选 I ; 由该句中的 has 可知,此处应填动词过去式,且表达的含义应和后面的 consider…unimportant 相近,故应排除 contained 和 expressed而选择 ignored ;
  2. 选 A ; 此处应填名词,但能与后面 over 构成固定搭配的名词只有 priority ,故排除 了 criticis
m 和 motivation ;
  3. 选 M. 由空格前面的 and 可知,此处应填副词和 freely 并列;从句意来理解,在没有拼写困难的情况下,怎样鼓励学生自由且 …… 地表达自己,选项中只有 confidently “自信地“符合题意;

  5. 选 E ; 由前一句中的 be likely to “ play safe ”和空格前的 avoid可以推知,此处所填词的意思应与play safe表达的意思相反,故选项中只有adventurous符合题意;
  6. 选 K ; 很明显此处应填动词的一般现在时,可选项有 encourage和 persuade ;由 That’s why 知本句与前一句构成因果关系,而前一句说的是学生往往会用他们拼写范围内的词写文章,从而选择避免用那些不会的词,故由此可推知此句应理解为老师鼓励学生用字典,因此排除 persuade 而选encourage;
  7. 选 H ; 此处应填形容词;由空格后面的 too many spelling errors和illegible可知,这篇文章是
写的很糟,而不是很难理解;故排除difficult而选terrible;
  8. 选 B ; 此处应填名词;由后半句中 a sad reflection on the teacher可知,前半句是在指责学生,故选项中只有criticism符合题意;
  9. 选 C ; 此处填动词过去式,本句中由 which 引导的从句是对 essay的解释,剩余选项中 contained 和 expressed ,根据句意,文章 …… 儿童内心感受的一些好的表达,故只有 contained 符合题意;
  10. 选 G ; 此处应填名词;根据句意,如果老师更注重学生思想的表达的话,会给学生更大的动力去寻求提高;故排除 motive “动机,原因”而选 motivation ;

For middle and higher management, a special method is used to evaluate managers on their knowledge of the job, their responsibility, and their __6__ to solve problems.
