单选题
The title of professor should be given only to those who, first and foremost, do ______.
【正确答案】
A
【答案解析】[分析] 词汇题。第四段中,作者建议"The title of professor should be given to those who profess,”在此句之前,作者强调了教学与科研相结合,在本段最后又指出“Professors unwilling to teach can be called‘distinguished research investigators,’or something else”,由此可以推测出句中 profess 在此应指的是“ teach”,故选A。
