问题     Quite often, educators tell families of children who are learning English as a second language to speak only English, and not their native language, at home. Although these educators may have good【C1】______, their advice to families is misguided, and it【C2】______from misunderstandings about the process of language acquisition.

选项

答案 F

解析 该空格位于动词have之后。并由形容词good修饰.据此推断所填词应为名词。文章开篇第一句讲述了教育者们关于语言学习的建议,而本句中开头为Although,可知空格所在部分与句子后半部分有转折关系,后半句说这种建议帮了倒忙,由此可以判断空格所在位置表明这些教育工作者们的出发点还是好的,故答案为intentions“意图.目的”。备选项中还有asset和object两个名词,但与上下文语意不符.故排除。
