Language barriers present a variety of challenges for children of any age. In Houston alone, bilingual education programs have helped many grade-school students【S1】the trials that accompany not being able to speak English.
In the past, such vital curriculum was not always readily【S2】for children who needed it. One person who experienced the【S3】of school life without a bilingual program was UH education professor Yolanda Padron.
As a child, Padron and her family moved from Cuba to the United States. Settling in Landover, Mass., she was placed into elementary school, but had no working【S4】of English. With that, she found herself at a【S5】disadvantage.
"When I came here, I was in the fifth grade, but because I didn’t speak English, they put me back a year," she said. "We lived there for about six months before we moved to Houston. When I came here, I still didn’t speak English, so I was placed back another grade. At the time, that was the【S6】to how to deal with children who didn’t speak the language." Despite the awkwardness of being placed back two grade levels, Padron【S7】some much-needed attention from concerned teachers. After being【S8】, it was learned that she was on par with other students of her【S9】age despite not knowing English. By the eighth grade, Padron was【S10】able to join students in her peer group.
A) little I) lost
B) major J) received
C) impossible K) difficulties
D) tested L) knowledge
E) finally M) available
F) response N) basically
G) own O) overcome
H) happiness
【S2】
选项
答案
M
解析
本空所填词应能被readily修饰且能与空后的for连用。该句概括出过去的情况,该段第二句举出Yolanda Padr6n的例子,其中的without a bilingual program应和空格所在句意思一致,故选M)available。其中such vital curriculum指的就是a bilingual program,not always readily available和without对应。
