单选题
But A
assuming that
the contrast I have developed is valid, and that the fostering of skills and creativity B
are both worthwhile goals
, the important question becomes this: Can we gather, from the Chinese and American extremes, C
a superior way
to approach education, perhaps D
to strike a better balance
between the poles of creativity and basic skills?
【正确答案】
D
【答案解析】解析：to strike a better balance一striking a better balance。句意：然而，假定我这里所说的反差是成立的，而培养技艺与创造力两者都是值得追求的目标，那么重要的问题就在于：我们能否通过在创造力与基本技能这两极之间获得某种较好的平衡，从而在中关两个极端中寻求一种更好的教育方式。perhaps部分是分词短语作方式状语，相当于perhaps by striking，所以to strike应改为striking。
