问题     To a comparative educationalist many questions about the
selection and training of doctors and lawyers in different countries
are questions almost without meaning. Asking whether European
schools are better than schools in the United States are like asking a【S1】______
comparative anatomist whether a whale is a better mammal than an
elephant.
    The comparative anatomist is interested in examining the
similarities and differences to be found in animal or plant organs
which carry on the same function; he is very cautious,【S2】______
therefore, about proclaiming the virtues of a device found in one【S3】______
particular species over a device for a similar purpose found in other.【S4】______
Of course, the anatomist knows that mammals are modified only
slowly by changes in environment; like schools or colleges, no man-【S5】______
made decisions will radically alter the structure of the functioning
organism he is examining.
    Some will argue that this damages my analogy; they may claim
that the essence of human organizations lies in the fact conscious【S6】______
acts of men and women can change them, and as history shows,
overnight if need be. " But wait a moment, " the student of the
comparative anatomy of schools will say, " not overnight surely,
except at the point of a bayonet or in our time under the shadow of
armored vehicles and tanks. " And such changes, he will argue, are
the equivalent of pathological alterations.【S7】______
    History shows that, except in conditions of threat brought about【S8】______
by external forces, schools and colleges have developed gradually in
different parts of the world in response to variety of different【S9】______
conditions. They are a product of the society they serve for and they【S10】______
also influence the future of this society. [br] 【S5】
选项
答案 like—unlike
解析 语义错误。根据上文提到的mammals are modified only slowly by changes in environment“哺乳动物的缓慢演变只受到环境变化的影响”可知，该处句意是“与学校不同，解剖学家所研究的机体并不受人为因素的影响”。此处指生物和学校并不一样，故将like改为unlike。
