问题     There is a popular belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling. No school I have taught in has ever ignored spelling or considered it unimportant as a basic skill. There are, however, vastly different ideas about how to teach it, or how much priority (优先) it must be given over general language development and writing ability. The problem is how to encourage a child to express himself freely and confidently in writing without holding him back with the complexities (复杂性) of spelling.
    If spelling becomes the only focus of his teacher’s interest, clearly a bright child will be likely to play safe. He will tend to write only words within his spelling range, choosing to avoid adventurous language. That’s why teachers often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability.
    I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a piece of writing about a personal experience, "This work is terrible! There are far too many spelling errors in the writing, but it was also a sad reflection on the teacher who had feelings. " The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the errors, but if his priorities had centered on the child’s ideas, an expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have encouraged the pupil to improve his writing.
Which of the following is TRUE according to the last paragraph?

选项 A、The writing did not truly reflect the feelings.
B、The teacher liked the writing very much.
C、The teacher’s priority was on the child’s ideas.
D、The author disagreed about the teacher’s comments.

答案D

解析 最后一段最后一句使用了虚拟语气,作者认为这位老师注意拼写并没有错,但是如果他能够优先考虑孩子的思想,那么他失望的表达就会鼓励学生提高写作水平。由此可推知,作者并不同意这位老师的评语。故选D。
