问题    Much controversy (争论) has been caused by the publication of new report by Professor B. J. Martin. The report claims to have statistical evidence that children who attend a number of different schools through their parents having to move around the country in search of work are more likely to have low academic achievement. There are also indications of an unusually high rate of psychological disturbances (骚动) among such children.
   The professor, who has long suspected this negative effect on children, stresses that this is not simply an expression of prejudice. "It’s true, " he says. "My personal feeling is that children should stay in one school. However, our findings are based on research and not on any personal attitudes that my colleagues or I may have on the subject. "
   Captain Thomas James, an Army lecturer and father of two, said: "As far as I’ m concerned, absolutely no harm is done to the education of children who change schools regularly--as long as they keep to the same system, as in our Army schools. Army children are as well-adjusted as any others, if not more so. What the professor does not appear to appreciate is the fact that in such situations children will adapt much better than adults. "
   When this was put to Professor Martin, he said that at no time had his report suggested that all such children were backward or disturbed in some way, but simply that there was a Clear tendency in their experience. While the extremely bright child could cope with regular changes of schools without harming his or her general academic progress, the majority of children suffered from constantly having to enter a new learning environment.  
The report mentioned in the first paragraph suggests that ______.

选项 A、children who move around the country with their parents are more capable
B、it may not be good for children to change schools too often
C、parents are looking for a better school for their children’s education
D、more and more children are suffering from psychological problems

答案B

解析 第一段重点写Professor B.J.Martin的报告。报告声称有足够的证明来证实那些常随父母工作变动而换学校的学生的成绩更可能不好,并且心理骚动的比率也异常高。D选项有一定干扰,但本文专门针对经常变换学校的学生而不是所有的孩子们。
