Articles in magazines and newspapers and special reports on radio and television reflect the concern of many Americans about the increasing dropout rate in our junior and senior high schools. Coupled with this fact is the warning that soon we will no longer have workforce to fill the many jobs that require properly-educated personnel. The highest student dropout rate is not a recent development. Ten years ago, many urban schools were reporting dropout rates between 35 and 50 percent. Some administrators maintain that dropouts remain the single greatest problem in their schools. Consequently, much effort has been spent on identifying students with problems in order to give them more attention before they become failures. Since the dropout problem doesn’t start in senior high school, special programs in junior high school focus on students who show promise but have a record of truancy, that is, staying away from school without permission. Under the guidance of counselors, these students are placed in classes with teachers who have had success in working with similar young people. Strategies to motivate students in high school include rewarding academic excellence by designating scholars of the month, or by issuing articles of clothing such as school letter jackets formally given only to athletes. No one working with these students claims to know how to keep all students in school. Counselors, teachers, and administrators are in the frontlines of what seems at times to be a losing battle. Actually, this problem should be everyone’s concern, since uneducated, unemployed citizens affect us all.

选项 A、Allowing them to choose their favorite teachers.
B、Creating a more relaxed learning environment.
C、Rewarding excellent academic performance.
D、Helping them to develop better study habits.

答案C

解析 What is mentioned as one of the strategies used to motivate students?
四个选项的内容都是针对提高学生成绩而采取的措施,由此推测本题可能提问具体采取哪一种方式来提高学生的成绩或学习兴趣。为了解决学校中存在的辍学现象,文章中提出了解决问题的建议:Strategies to motivate students in high school include rewarding academic excellence by designating scholars of the month,or by issuing articles of clothing. 总的来说就是rewarding academic excellence(奖励学习优秀的学生),同时提供了两个具体的方法:designating scholars of the month(每月评选奖学金)和issuing articles of clothing(发放衣服作为奖励)。结合四个选项可知,C)为本题的正确答案。
