　　【解析】詞義題。本題題干在問，“acclimation”最接近下面哪個(gè)意思?定位第三段最后一句話，Gap year experiences can lessen the blow when it comes to adjusting to college and being thrown into a brand new environment, making it easier to focus on academics and activities rather than acclimation blunders. 本句是說，當(dāng)談到適應(yīng)大學(xué)生活并且很快融入到一個(gè)全新的環(huán)境這個(gè)問題時(shí)，擁有空檔年方面的經(jīng)驗(yàn)可以減少相關(guān)的打擊，這就使得專注去學(xué)習(xí)并且參與活動而不是______更容易。各選項(xiàng)代入，A最符合語義，和前面的adjusting to形成復(fù)現(xiàn)。
