Recent analysis indicates the U.S. education system is adapting to changing workforce needs and demands. Signals from the marketplace, coming in the form of higher pay rates for certain occupations, are motivating students to enroll in educational programs congruent with the needs of those industries. This training is expanding and improving their skills in those areas, and, by extension, their own marketability. Furthermore, the entire system is undergoing positive change including parents, educators and administrators. The changes are increasing choices and helping to mitigate equity issues, but there is still room for improvement.
As the American economy becomes a more global one, the advantage of Americans in knowledge and skill-based industries will only grow larger. Thus, the level of education of the worker will become an even greater factor in increasing productivity and spurring progress. To the individual worker, that means that his level of education will directly influence his salary. Similarly, fair income distribution will greatly depend on equity of access and participation in educational resources. Given existing social disparities, intervention may be required to assist a substantial segment of Americans.
Legislation has been passed mandating equal access to key educational and aid facilities, making it easier for those most in need of those services to obtain them. Recent laws forbid employers and educators from discriminating against various applicants or employees based on their race, age, gender or physical appearance, among other factors. Furthermore, the American civil litigation system has been doing its part as well, hearing cases involving discrimination and unequal treatment and, more often than not, deciding in favor of equality. At almost all levels, progress has been made in equalizing the disparities that exist between various social and ethnic groups in the schools and in the workplace.
However, income and racial-ethnicity problems continue to dog the system. As the structure of the economy shifts to support a larger proportion of knowledge-intensive industries, these disparities will only become more intractable. To the extent that more equitable income distribution is desirable, additional government intervention may be required.
As time goes on, education will become______.
选项
A、more important to personal income and national productivity
B、less of a factor in the international trade community
C、more determinative of racial equality in the job market
D、less focused on global issues and interactions
答案
A
解析
属信息归纳题。相关信息在第二段第二、三句:工人的受教育水平对于提高生产力以及促进发展而言将成为一个更具决定性作用的因素。对于每位工人而言,这意味着他的受教育水平将直接影响他的薪金。由此可知,选项A符合此意。选项B、D与本段中第一句意思不符(随着美国经济全球化特性的逐步加强,美国人在知识技术密集型产业中的优势只会愈发突出)。选项C(determinative意为“起决定性作用的”)在文中没有推理依据。
