本句摘自2022年高考英语全国卷1阅读理解A。
句中的missed是什么意思?
附全段语境:An essay not submitted in class on the due date will lose a letter grade for each class period it is late. If it is not turned in by the 4th day after the due date, it will earn a zero. Daily assignments not completed during class will get a zero. Short writings missed as a result of an excused absence will be accepted.

本段讲的是:截止日期之前未在课堂上提交的论文将因每延迟一节课而降低一个评分等级。如果在到期日后的4天内仍未上交,将会得零分。上课时期间未完成的日常作业也将会得零分——这前面讲的都是“按时性”,即不按时就会有所惩罚(比如降低等级或得零分)。本段最后一句则说的是:如果是“因故请假”而没有按时提交呢?也会受惩罚吗?不会!将会 be accepted。所以本句中的 miss 其实是指因请假缺席而“错过”提交时间。
