答案:
(答案→)ages
解析:
试题分析:学校教育是非常重要的,如今在全美国有五千六百多万人接受各种学校教育。人们都希望学校能够满足每个孩子的不同需求,所以学校课程除了包括历史、语言外,还会开设缝纫、打字、收音机或机动车辆的修理等课程,学生可以根据自己的兴趣爱好来选择课程。
【小题1】ages 前面内容是关于上学的大学生们,由空后的信息of 18 and 25可以判断此处指年龄段,填ages。
【小题2】meet根据语境可知此处指为了满足每个儿童上学的需要,固定短语meet one’s needs,此外be expected to “被期望……”,后面需要用动词原形,所以填meet。
【小题3】itself根据汉语提示可知填反身代词,而指代society,所以用itself。
【小题4】includes由结构可知此处缺少宾语从句的谓语动词,根据提示和主谓一致的原则可知此处填includes。
【小题5】well根据句意可知此处指“还有”,短语:as well as 除。。。外,答案填well。
【小题6】depending 从结构判断此处是现在分词短语做状语,由提示可知此处填depending。
【小题7】however根据前后句意可知此处表示意义上的转折,前后又有逗号,所以用副词however。
【小题8】from从句意可知此处指来自世界上许多国家的人们,填from。
【小题9】world 根据句意和首字母提示可知此处是指world,句意:当数百万来自世界上许多国家的人们来到美国定居的时候。
【小题10】important。根据结构可知此处填形容词来修饰名词part,再由文章内容可知当移民到美国来后,孩子上学受教育是非常重要的事情,所以填important。
