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.  
According to Professor Martin, which children suffer most from changing schools constantly?
选项 A、The brightest.
B、The average.
C、Those of below-average intelligence.
D、Those from an army background.
答案B
解析 从本文最后一段尤其是最后一句我们可以做出正确的选择。最后一句是说“非常聪明的孩子能忍受定期变更学校这一状况而不影响其学业，但是大多数学生经常要遭受适应新的学习环境之苦”。这样我们可以排除A、C、D三个选项。
