【解析】

試題 MOOC是大規模在線課程的縮寫，只需一臺電腦和互聯網，成千上萬的人可以同時使用MOOC。本文主要介紹了兩位教師對于MOOC的觀點與看法。

【1】根據上文You can be anywhere in the world to take it. 你可以在世界任何地方接受它，可知下文大型在線課程 “All you need is a computer and the Internet.你所需要的只是一臺電腦和互聯網。”符合語境。故選：B。

【2】根據下文He says,“When students take some lessons, they needn't be present to hear and get them.”He says more and more students in MOOCs can mean less communication between them and the teachers.可知，Scott Anderson認為“大型在線課程”有其優、缺點。所以“He thinks MOOCs have both advantages and disadvantages”符合語境。故選：A。

【3】根據下文 She says online education has more weaknesses for her subjects.She says…可知，上文應提到一個女性。Lisa Jadwin teaches literature and writing at a college in New York.符合語境。故選：C。

【4】根據上文 She says,“What's lost in online education is face-to-face communication. But the teaching of literature needs that.”學習文學需要面對面地交流，所以下文會說到 “She says some students can learn very well from talks and discussion groups.”,承接上文點名這種學習方式的好處。故選：D。

【5】根據文章大意，主要介紹了“什么是MOOC,以及兩位老師對此的看法與觀點”，所以“what two teachers think of MOOCs”最符合文意。故選：B。
