B)reward J)similar
C)alternative K)approved
D)recommendations L)informed
E)familiar M)exclusively
F)provoke N)requirements
G)traditional O)complex

【C4】

选项

答案G

解析 此处应填形容词。该空需要填一个形容词修饰path,该空选择主要靠理解上下文文意。文章开始就提到纽约州董事会考虑让替代教师培训计划来认证教师,以扩大一直只由教育学院履行的职责,第2段又提到改变获取教师资格证的要求,这都是要改变过去认证教师的方法,所以可知认证的扩展带来的可能结果,应该是重新定义过去成为教师的途径,备选项中表示与过去相关的形容词只有G)traditional“传统的”。文章最后的“revolution”是对本空的反义复现。
