Nowadays everyone hopes to ______ good education so as to get a good job in the future. A．accept B．accept a C．receive D．receive a

Answer 1

D

考查词义辨析。accept 主观上接受，receive 客观上收到，也可指受教育，句意：现在为了在将来找一份好工作，每个人希望接受一种良好的教育。一种良好的教育前面应加上不定冠词a，所以选D。

Answer 2

答案：D. receive a
释义：教育的主要方式还是由老师——讲出，学生——听进。从客观上是从老师那儿——接收过来，receive 比 accept 更适合于句义。
比较：accept 的主观意识问题可通过下例来辨识一二：
The official accepted bribes from people who wanted favours in return．这个官员从向他求情的人那里接受贿赂。（这是有意识的行为，所以是有罪的）
The official received some bribes from people who wanted favours in return．这个官员从向他求情的人那里收到一些贿赂。（这是无意识的，所以是无罪的）
