问题    As anxiety-makers, examinations are second to none. That is
because so much depends on it. They are the mark of success 【M1】______
or failure in our society. One’ s whole future may be decided on
one fateful day. It doesn’ t matter that he wasn’ t feeling very
well, or that his mother died. Things like that don’t
count on: the exam goes on. No one can give of his best when 【M2】______
what the examination system expects you to do. The moment 【M3】______
a child begins school, he enters into a world of vicious competition 【M4】______
where success and failure are clearly defined and measured.
Can we wonder at the increasing number of "drop-outs" : young people
who are written off as utter failures before they have even embarked 【M5】______
a career? Can we be surprised at the suicide rate among students?
A good education should, among other things, train one to
think for himself. The examination system does nothing but that. 【M6】______
What has to be learnt is rigidly laid down by a syllabus, so the student is
encouraged to memorize. Examinations do not motivate a student
to read widely, but restrict his reading; they do not enable him to seek 【M7】______
more and more knowledge, but induce cramming. They lower the
standards of teaching, for they deprive teachers off all freedoms. 【M8】______
Teachers themselves are often judged by examination results and
instead of teaching their subjects, they are reducing to training their 【M9】______
students in exam techniques which they despise of. The most 【M10】______
successful candidates are not always the best educated; they are the best
trained in the technique of working under duress. [br] 【M5】
选项
答案 embarked∧—on
解析 词汇错误。embark单独使用时表示“乘船，登机”，而embark on意为“从事，着手，开始做”。结合句意可知，此处应加上介词on。
