of fit讲得比较抽象，下文会详细阐述。it is not surprising that…为作者观点句，是作者的argument。语篇关键词：gifted students / school）In one study of 400 adults who had achieved distinction in all areas of life, researchers found that three-fifths of these individuals either did badly in school or were unhappy in school. Few MacArthunr Prize fellows, winners of the MacArthur Award for creative accomplishment, had good things to say about their precollegiate schooling if they had not been placed in advanced programs. Anecdotal(名人轶事的) reports support this. Pablo Picasso, Charles Darwin, Mark Twain, Oliver Goldsmith, and William Butler Yeats all disliked school. So did Winston Churchill, who almost failed out of Harrow, an elite British school. (27) About Oliver Goldsmith, one of his teachers remarked, “Never was so dull a boy.” Often these children realize that they know more than their teachers, and their teachers often feel that these children are arrogant, inattentive, or unmotivated.（作者接着举出研究人员的调查来证明自己的观点。先提出观点，再用例子证明，这是常见的写作手法。）
27.The author quotes the remarks of one of Oliver Goldsmith’s teachers _________.
[定位与替换]本题是问作者引用Goldsmith的老师的评论的目的是什么？根据关键词Oliver Goldsmith’s teachers定位到第一段，作者引用了一些名人轶事证明很多有成就的人都对他们的学校经历评价不高，也就是证明作者自己的观点，故选A) to provide support for his argument对其观点提供支持。解题的关键在于认清例证在段落中的作用是为了证明作者的观点，平时要加强语篇分析。
[干扰项分析] B) to illustrate the strong will of some gifted children阐明一些天才儿童的坚强的意志，第一段无内容支持strong will，第二段中有strong-willed一词，属于词汇干扰；C) to explain how dull students can also be successful解释愚笨的学生如何也能获得成功, Goldsmith的老师说过从来没见过这么dull的孩子，但这并非作者的观点；D) to show how poor Oliver’s performance was at school 显示Oliver在学校的表现有多么糟糕，此选项和C的错误类型相同。
(28) Some of these gifted people may have done poorly in school because their gifts were not scholastic. （作者在第一句就提出了论点，these gifted people指第一段举的许多名人，承接上文。） Maybe we can account for Picasso in this way. (30)But most fared poorly in school not because they lacked ability but because they found school unchallenging and consequently lost interest.（注意：not because … but because 结构中，作者语意重点在but because之后。）Yeats described the lack of fit between his mind and school: “Because I had found it difficult to attend to anything less interesting than my own thoughts, I was difficult to teach.” As noted earlier, gifted children of all kinds tend to be strong-willed nonconformists.
