Schools often have too restricting an atmosphere, with its timetables and【B4】______, to allow a student much time for independent assessment of his work.

If I had not taken a 【B7】_______ in Modern Languages, I should not have ended up 【B8】_______ the job as an interpreter, 【B9】_______ it's so late." Another question is how to make the best【B10】______of one's time at university. This is the case of the student who excels【B11】______a particular branch of learning. He is immediately【B12】______to the university of his choice, and spends his four years becoming specialized in this field, finally emerging with a first-class Honor Degree, but very【B13】______knowledge of what the【B14】______of the world is all about. It【B15】______becomes more and more important that if students are not to waste their opportunities, there will have to be【B16】______detailed information about courses and more advice. Only in this way can we be sure that we are not to have, on the one hand, a【B17】______of specialists【B18】______of anything【B19】______their own subject, or on the other hand ever-increasing number of graduates qualified in subject for which there is little or no【B20】______in the working world.

【答案解析】解析:本句意为“各种课程表和______让学生没有太多时间去独立评估他的工作”。空格处所需单词和timetables(作息时间表)构成并列结构,共同解释too restricting an atmosphere。 通过句意,disciplines“纪律”符合题意。limitations和restrictings语义重复,不符合题意。 requirements“要求”、punishments“惩罚”均不符合题意。
【答案解析】解析:本句意为“另外一个问题就是在大学里应该如何充分______时间”。通过固定搭配用法可知,make the best use of“充分利用”符合题意。make fun of“嘲笑”,make much of“强调,重视”,make nothing of“不理解,不懂”,均不符合题意。
