答案解析

文章大意
本文讨论的是印度的教育发展。教育普及化是印度优先考虑的政策，但仍然是一个未了的梦想，中等教育的普及相当有限，高等教育的人口比例很小，但技术教育进展得非常好。印度近期着重发展教育现代化和技术进步，贡献了大批软件和信息技术高技能人才。印度独立管理自己的事务，不依赖外国专门技术，同时向其他国家输送了各类人力。印度在1968年和1986年分别颁布了全国教育方针，但由于多方面的原因，政策和实践之间存在着巨大的差距。
答案详解
1．therefore→however语篇错误。由上下文语义判断，此句与前句在意义上应是转折关系，前句说，中等教育的普及很有限，高等教育只有少部分人能享受；本句说职业教育发展得很好，二者形成对照，故用表转折意义的however替换therefore。
2．lain→laid词汇错误。lain是lie的过去分词，表示“躺；处于”，放在这里明显不合句意，此处是lay stress on的结构，表示“强调”，故应该改成lay的过去分词laid。
3．sphere→spheres词汇错误。other作形容词表示“别的，另外的”，通常与复数名词连用，故应把sphere改为spheres。
4．no→any词汇错误。in no way是固定搭配，意为“决不，无论如何也不”，in any way意为“以任何方式，在任何方面”，此句是否定句，故用in any way。这里的意思是“印度独立管理自己的事务，在任何方面都不依赖外国专业知识。”
5．to→for词汇错误。provide sth. for sb.是固定搭配，意为“给某人提供某物”，此句的意思是“印度为其他各国提供了各种人力资源。”
6．in (which)→in语法错误。此处是非限制性定语从句，关系代词which指代前面整句话，故不需要介词ill。
7．∧big→a语法错误。gap作名词意为“差距”，是可数名词，且在文中是第一次提到，故前面应该加上不定冠词a。
8．essential→essentially语法错误。此处应该用副词修饰介词短语，故应改为essentially，意为“根本上，基本上”。
9．∧revised→was语法错误。此句主语policy和谓语revise是被动关系，故用被动语态，加上was。
10．far→further词汇错误。far作副词意为“很，极大地”，前一段的末句已经提到了政策和实践之间有了很大的差距，此句说到政策待到修改，但却加深了确定的目标和实际政策及资源分配之间的不一致性和矛盾，故此处应该用far的比较级further，表示“更进一步”。
