　　答案解析：

　　36. A

　　此处意为“涉及大约300个学生至少21所高校的非正式谈话”。counting意为“数目是”，covering意为“包括”，figuring意为“数目是”。

　　37. B

　　此题考察固定搭配。at least意为“至少”。

　　38. D

　　此题考察上下文理解。此句后文出现了与空缺并列的direct，意思是“直接的”，因此，要选择与此意相近的词。四个选项分别是：A(含蓄的)，B(努力的)，C(礼貌的)，D(坦白的)。不难得出，此题选D。

　　39. C

　　comment on sth.意为“对……的评价”。

　　40. A

　　此题考察词汇和原文理解。present的意思是to bring to sb’s notice directly，符合题意。

　　41. C

　　此题考察固定搭配。make remarks意为“对……作出评价或评论”。

　　42. C

　　此题考察词汇。by the case译为“在……情况下”。原文意为“在同学们谈到某些教师时，其评论言辞的犀利程度常常被弱化了”。

　　43. B

　　此题考察介词用法。speak about意为“论及;涉及”。

　　44. B

　　此处考察上下文衔接。本句意为“正如以下建议所暗示的……”，故选B(as)。

　　45. A

　　根据文意，同学们对于课堂的某些方面还是不满意的。这样，可判断C，D不能选。A意为“不满意的”(人作主语);B意为“令人不满意的”(物作主语)。

　　46. C

　　此处考察词汇。A，B，D意思都与“打扰”相关，只有C的意思是“不鼓励”。这里指，不鼓励教师上课照念教参。

　　47. A

　　此题考察相似词汇的细微区别。四个选项的意思分别是：A(形容人说话的声音)，B(声响，声音)，C(发音)，D(手势)。依据上下文意思，故选A。

　　48. D

　　此题考察固定搭配give out，意为“分发”。

　　49. D

　　此处考察情态动词的用法。should可代表有强烈的个人感情色彩，且表将来发生的事情的可能性。而且，从后文中也用了should一词可以判断得出答案。

　　50. D

　　此处考察动词的固定搭配。avoid doing sth.意为“避免做某事”。

　　51. A

　　此处意为“一旦我们读材料，我们希望讨论它或是听到详尽的说明，而不是简单的重复”。

　　52. C

　　由于老师重复太多，同学们都很有意见，他们希望能对知识点进行讨论或者听老师的详细阐述。四个选项的意思分别是：A(记住)，B(争论，争吵)，C(讨论)D(保存)。由此可知，答案选C。

　　53. B

　　参考51题解释，故选择not。B为答案。

　　54. C

　　此题考察词汇。四个选项的意思是：A(理想的)，B(修改的)，C(要求的)，D(值得的)。本句意为“同学们厌恶购买的课本当然是老师要求、规定让他们去买的课本了。”
