30、为让尖子生留在普通班里学习，那无疑是对人才的埋没。那么事实是怎么样的呢？1CA项principle“原理；主义”和B项theory“理论；原理”角度太高，与话题不符；D项classification“分类；类别”不符合语境和逻辑，只有C项arguments“争论”与前面argue相呼应。故选C项。2C根据本文主题可以看出，这里强调的situation“环境”应该指学习环境。故选C项。3D句意：有天赋的孩子在普通班在智力方面会受到遏制。average意为“平均的；平常的；普通的；一般的”， average children“普通的孩子”与前句的“gifted children”相对应。故选D项。
31、4B通过下文 “can help the gifted children to graduate earlier”可知， 此处所指的班级应该是特长班。故选B项。5A句意：把这些有天赋的孩子们从普通班里选走可能会造成严重的问题。A项children意为“孩子们”，符合题意。故选A项。6A通过上下文，尤其是从“who were taken out of a special class”可知，这儿所指的孩子应该是聪明的(intelligent)孩子。故选A项。7B从该句前面信息可以看出，这里所指的班级是普通班(regular class)。故选B项。8D根据语境可知，此处指学生在特长班，处处依赖老师

33、oncern“担心”，所以，A项concern对应前句的concerned。故选A项。12B从these可以看出指的是上文的parents和teachers，adult具有概括性。故选B项。13A根据句子中“special classes”的提示可知，有些家乡和老师就简单地以为特长班是为“有天赋的(talented)”孩子设立的。故选A项。14D从本句的so及前句的“Some top students do feel bored in class”可知，此处在说明学生的这种感受。故选D项。15C从前句“Studies have shown that to be bored is to be a

36、ides, taking everyday exercise and going on a diet can help to train a persons perseverance. However, the others have different ideas. They hold the view that it is a waste of time, energy and money. Some often try to lose weight by taking weight-loss pills. As a result, their health gets damaged badly. Whats worse, whoever takes weight loss seriously often lacks confidence.In my opinion, if one is too fat and often falls ill, he or she should try to lose weight with the help of a doctor.
