    Given the choice between spending an evening with friends and taking extra time for his schoolwork, Andy Klise admits he would probably【C1】______ to the latter. It’s not that he doesn’t like to have fun; it’s just his desire to excel【C2】______ drives his decision-making process.
    A graduate of Wooster High School and now a senior biology major at the College of Wooster, Klise acknowledges that he may someday have second thoughts about his decision to limit the time he has spent socializing, but for now, he is【C3】______ with the choices he has made. "If things had not【C4】______ as well as they have, I would have had some regrets," says Klise, who was a Phi Beta Kappa inductee as a junior. "But spending the extra time studying has been well worth the【C5】______. I realized early on that to be successful, I had to make certain sacrifices."
    As for the origin of his intense motivation, Klise notes that it has been part of his makeup for as long as he can remember. "I’ve always been goal【C6】______," he says. "This internal drive has caused me to give my all in pretty much everything I do." Klise【C7】______ Wooster’s nationally recognized Independent Study(IS.)program with preparing him for his next step in life: a research position with the National Institute of Health(NIH). "I am hoping that my I.S. experience will help me【C8】______ a research position with NIH," says Klise.

选项

答案 B

解析 空格前有情态动词would,空格后有介词结构to the latter,故此空需填入能与介词to搭配的动词原形,构成“~to sth.”结构。词库中能与介词to搭配的动词原形只有prefer。prefer可用于prefer A to B、prefer to do sth.、prefer doing sth.等结构,文中涉及的用法是第一种结构,表示“喜欢A更胜于B”。将prefer代入空格,表示“会选择后者”,符合下文语境。此处would prefer to the latter省略了prefer后面的the former(“前者”,即指spending an evening with friends)。
