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. " It is an【C2】______fact that countries who out-educate us today will out-compete us tomorrow.

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. His $447 billion job creation plan includes money for hiring teachers and school repairs, and on Friday he announced a【C5】______of " No Child Left Behind," a decade-old education measure introduced by former President George W. 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
I
解析
分析该句的句子结构可以推断出空格处应为动词的过去分词,表示被动意义。空格后的“for being inflexible”表明,不让一个孩子剩下的法律缺乏灵活性。由此可以推断,人们对此应持否定态度。备选项中只有criticized有“批评,指责”之意,故答案选I。
