Just seven years ago, the Texas Legislature prescribed that all high schoolers must pass two math courses and geometry to graduate. This summer, the state reversed course, easing its【C1】________math, science, and social-studies requirements to【C2】________class time for job training.
Texas legislators want to create a more【C3】________system that helps students who aren’t headed to four-year colleges enter the workforce. But that【C4】________carries some risks.【C5】________it’s true that not all students will go on to college, pulling back on college preparatory coursework has to be【C6】________carefully in a state like Texas, with its hundreds of thousands of low-income and【C7】________students. They’re the students who would benefit from college the most.
New laws in Texas, as well as in Florida, de-emphasize the math class required for【C8】________to four-year colleges. Knowledge of these subjects is considered an indicator of college readiness【C9】________the Common Core standards, which have been【C10】________by 45 states, including Florida.
More than half of public-school students in both states are nonwhite and from low-income families. It’s particularly【C11】________that these Hispanic and African-American students leave high school qualified to further their e-ducation—【C12】________they don’t plan on doing so right away. A college【C13】________is the most important driver of social mobility. By 2020, 65 percent of all jobs will require some kind of postsecondary education according to surveys.
【C14】________speaking, Texas’s earlier college-prep course-work recommendations didn’t fit reality.【C15】________the high bar, only about half of the state’s high school graduates immediately headed off to college of any kind. "We wanted to give students and parents more flexibility, to not only be college-prepared—which I think we’re doing a pretty good job of—but perhaps to【C16】________that preparation to folks who may not be going to college," Representative Jimmie Don Aycock, who【C17】________the Texas House’s Public Education Committee, says of the revision. The goal isn’t to dumb down the curriculum, he says, but to let kids【C18】________a path that might not have been【C19】________ to them before. The state’s educational system still rewards schools when students【C20】________college readiness.
【C12】
选项
A、provided that
B、even if
C、now that
D、in case
答案
B
解析
此段旨在说明让拉美和非洲裔学生上大学的重要性。而且不会因学生“不想马上上大学”的打算而改变,因此可考虑空格后分句为让步状语从句。B项even if“哪怕;即使”符合要求。A项provided that“假如”引导条件状语从句,C项how that“既然”表示原因,D项in case“万一”引导条件状语从句,此三项的逻辑和用法均不符合要求。
