The 4 of the average class period also has 5 , from more than 57minutes to less than 54,the Association reports.
“The 6 has to be that students are simply 7 less,” said the director of the Association. “If you count the actual 8 of contact hours, you'll find they are 9 four years in college getting an education that would have taken about 10 years in 1964.”
The universities argue (认为) that they are simply teaching more 11 “The traditional idea that learning 12 in the classroom and 13 reading and writing 14 based on seat time is out of date,” said a spokesman for the American Council on Education. “ 15 than attending lectures, students now 16 their professors on their computers or use other types of 17 technology, allowing for a shorter school year,” he said. It is very 18 .that, in many schools, they are going to spend 19 time 20 than they used to.

| 第1题,这些内容都是以the National Association 0f Scholars为依据的。因此选A。
第2题,上文讲的是大学的情况,下文要讲的是中小学的情况,两者“比较起来”,应为“By comparison”。 第3题,require意为“要求;需要”,其他选项的词义与文章上下文不符。 第4题,一节课平均的时间长短应该用length(名词),因此选B。 第5题,fallen在此句中表时间长度“减少”。 第6题,上文讲的是数据,此处得出“结论”。 第7题,此处的“结论”即学习时间减少了,与上文语义一致。 第8题,time指“时间”时是不可数名词,故应排除选项B,只有<span lang=EN-US style='mso-bidi-font-size:10.5pt; color:black'>number可表“总量”。 第9题,此句中使用的是“spend+some time+doing sth.”句型。 第10题,根据文章前两段可得出此答案。 第11题,大学认为时间缩短了,但效率提高了。 第12题,took place在此句中意为“进行”。 第13题,传统的教学理念是指在课堂上和通过阅读写作进行。因此选A。 第14题,write assignments是固定的动宾搭配,意为“写作业”。 第15题,rather than是固定词组,意为“而不是”。 第16题,通过计算机或者其他方式和教授聊天。因此用chat with. 第17题,information technology(IT)意为“信息技术”。 第18题,“It is likely that…”是常用句型,likely是形容词,意为“可能的”。lovely也是形容词,但意为“可爱的”,与上下文语义不符。A、B两个选项是副词,属语法错误,故应排除。 第19题,依据后边的than they used to可以判断应该用比较级,较少的时间,因此选A。 第20题,本篇短文讲的是“在教室里”学习时间的多少,故选C。
