11、ired to teach handwriting”可知书法教学是基本的教学要求，A项为正确推论。根据“One study published this year found that about three out of every four teachers say they are not prepared to teach handwriting”可知，很多老师不愿意教书法课，B项错误；根据第一段末句可知C项错误；根据全段判断，只是说键盘普及使一些人认为书法渐渐过时了，D项错误。答案A2.解析细节认定题。根据第二段可知，传统的书法教学重复很多遍并且持续时间长，因此A、B两项内容正确。根

12、据第三段第一句可知C项内容正确；根据最后一段第二句可知D项内容错误。答案D3.解析推测词义题。根据下文“which means forming the letters so they can be read”可推测画线词的意思是“清楚，易读”。答案A4.解析标题归纳题。作者对美国书法教学的现状作了叙述，没有自己的主观评论，故选择B。A项没有涉及，C项只是其中一部分内容，D项只是一部分人的观点。答案B5.解析态度判断题。根据全文的叙述，作者只是将美国书法教学的现状和不同人的观点呈现出来，并没有发表自己的见解，因此作者持客观的态度。答案B。*结束.完形填空Words：340难度系数：建议用时：17
