学员疑问：这道题为什么不选D？

         The American research university is a remarkable institution, long a source of admiration and wonder. The idyllic (田园诗的), wooded campuses, the diversity and energy of the student populations, and, most of all, the sheer volume of public and private resources available to them, have made them the envy of the world.

        Seen from the inside, however, everything is not quite so rosy….

71. The passage begins with the presentation of the American research university______.

    A. in a unique way                              B. in a jealous tone

    C. in the eyes of outsiders                 D. out of personal admiration

老师解答：如果选D，则只关注了第一段大意的内容，第一段确实是在说American research university的优点，但第二段笔锋一转，说明从内部看，一切并不是那么美好。所以第一段只是作者想借用局外人的视角描述这个大学的优点，作者是想在此基础上揭示这个大学存在的不足之处。因此答案选C。

点评分析：做阅读理解时，需要注意关注段落之间的逻辑关系。如果孤立看，能有可能不能得出作者的真正的意图。关注转折很重要。
