To produce the upheaval in the United States that changed and modernized the domain of higher education from the mid-1860’s to the mid-1880’s, three primary causes interacted. The emergence of a half-dozen leaders in education provided tile personal force that was needed. Moreover, an outcry for a fresher, more practical, and more advanced kind of instruction arose among tile alumni(校友) and friends of nearly all of the old colleges and grew into a movement that overrode all conservative opposition. The aggressive "Young Yale" movement appeared, demanding partial alumni control, a more liberal spirit, and a broader course of study. Tile graduates of Harvard College simultaneously rallied to relieve the college’s poverty and demand new enterprise. Education was pushing toward higher standards in the East by throwing off church leadership everywhere, and in the West by finding a wider range of studies and a new sense of public duty.
The old-style classical education received its most crushing blow in the citadel(保垒) of Harvard College, where Dr. Charles Eliot, a young captain of thirty-five, son of a former treasurer of Harvard, led tile progressive forces. Five revolutionary advances were made during the first years of Dr. Eliot’s administration. They were the elevation(提高) and amplification(增加) of entrance requirement, the enlargement of the curriculum and the development of the elective system, the recognition of graduate study in the liberal arts, the raising of professional training in law, medicine, and engineering to a postgraduate level, and the fostering of greater maturity in student life. Standards of admission were sharply advanced in 1872-1873 and 1876-1877. By the appointment of a dean to take charge of student affairs, and a wise handling of discipline, the undergraduates were led to regard themselves more as young gentlemen and less as young animals. One new course of study after another was opened up -- science, music, the history of the fine arts, advanced Spanish, political economy, physics, classical philology, and international law. [br] After the revolutionary advances in Harvard during the first years of Dr. Eliot’s administration ______.
选项

C、students would receive more professional training on campus
D、graduates from Harvard would be warmly welcomed by all walks of life
答案
C
解析
这题考查的是艾略特任职期间采取的改革措施。其中有一项是the raising of professional training(增加专业训练),即C)。从the elevation and amplification of entrance requirement(提高入校要求)得出A)错误;B)属于过度推断,哈佛开设了许多新课程,但并不是说学生可以随心所欲地选择自己喜欢的课程;D)虽看似合理,但文中并未提及。
