In his weekly radio and video address, Obama said as many as a quarter of American students are not【C1】______high school and far too few young people are getting college degrees.

With the 2012 campaign for the U. S. presidency heating up, Obama is speaking【C4】______often about education, a key issue for his political base.

Bush that seeks to hold schools【C6】______for students’ performance. "No Child" has been widely【C7】______for being inflexible, requiring teachers to adhere to a narrow curriculum【C8】______mostly at ensuring that students pass standardized tests.

选项
答案
D
解析
分析该句的句子结构可以推断出空格处应为以元音音素开头的形容词。该分句大意是“那些在教育上超过我们的国家将来会在竞争中胜过我们”,这其实是一个不可否认的事实,因为教育是强国之本。备选项中只有undeniable是以元音音素开头的形容词,有“不可否认的,无可争辩的”之意,故答案选D。
