问题     Culture is activity of thought, and receptiveness to beauty and humane feeling,【1】of information have nothing to do with it. A merely well-informed man is the most useless【2】on God’s earth. What we should【3】at producing is men who【4】both culture and expert knowledge in some special direction. Their expert knowledge will give them the ground to start【5】, and their culture will lead them as【6】as philosophy and as high as【7】. We have to remember that the valuable【8】development is self-development, and that it【9】takes place between the ages of sixteen and thirty. As to training, the most important part is given by mothers before the age of twelve.
    In training a child to activity of thought, above all things we must【10】of what I will call "inert ideas" —that is to say, ideas that are merely【11】into the mind without being【12】, or tested, or thrown into fresh combinations. In the history of educaton. the most【13】phenomenon is that schools of learning, which at one epoch are alive with a craze for genius, in a【14】generation exhibit merely pedantry and routine. The reason is that they are overladen with inert ideas. Except at【15】intervals of intellectual motivation, education in the past has been radically【16】with inert ideas. That is the reason why【17】clever women, who have seen much of the world, are in middle life so much the most cultured part of the community. They have been saved from this horrible【18】of inert ideas. Every intellectual revolution which has ever stirred humanity【19】greatness has been a【20】protest against inert ideas.
选项 A、load
B、burden
C、gap
D、span
答案B
解析 选项B表示“担子；负担；重担；责任”。根据文章一致性原则，“burden”与“are overladen with负担过重的；负担过多的”构成呼应。而选项A“装载(量)，负荷(量)；(一)担，(一)车；原义指车、船、飞机、人或动物的负荷物，引申义指工作或精神上的‘负担’，未必很繁重”，选项C“间隙，缺口”，选项D“跨度，跨距”均不符合题意。
