19、給他們發(fā)展創(chuàng)造力的機會”，所以while之前的句意應該與之相反，進一步推測詞義。A意為“（使）慢下來”，B意為“跟上”，C意為“超出”，D意為“引起，導致”，故選A。題型題型四：主旨大意題解釋考查學生對文章主題或中心思想的領會和理解能力。設題方式1. 問標題：What is the main topic of the passage? / The best title for the passage is _.2. 問中心：The first paragraph is mainly about the _. / The passage is mostly about _.3. 問目的，態(tài)度：T
