Surprisingly, no one knows how many children receive education in English hospitals, still less the content or quality of that education. Proper records are just not kept. We know that more than 850 000 children go through hospital each year, and that every child of school age has a legal centre to continue to receive education while in hospital. We also know there is only one hospital teacher to every 1 000 children in hospital.
Little wonder the latest survey concludes that the extent and type of hospital teaching available differ a great deal across the country. It is found that half the hospitals in England which admit children have no teacher. A further quarter have only a part-time teacher. The special children’s hospitals in major cities do best; general hospitals in the country and holiday areas are worst off. From this survey, one can estimate that fewer than one in five children have some contact with a hospital teacher--and that contact may be as little as two hours a day. Most children interviewed were surprised to find a teacher in hospital at all. They had not been prepared for it by parents or their own school. If there was a teacher they were much more likely to read books and do math or number work; without a teacher they would only play games.
Reasons for hospital teaching range from preventing a child falling behind and maintaining the habit of school to keeping a child occupied, and the latter is often all the teacher can do. The position and influence of many teachers was summed up when parents referred to them as the library lady or just the helper. Children tend to rely on concerned school friends to keep in touch with school work. Several parents spoke of requests for work being ignored or refused by the school. Once back at school children rarely get extra teaching, and are told to catch up as best they can.
Many short-stay child-patients catch up quickly. But schools do very little to ease the anxiety about falling behind expressed by many of the children interviewed.
We can conclude from the passage that the author is ______.
选项
A、opposed to children receiving education in hospitals
B、concerned with the present state of hospital teaching
C、in favor of the efforts schools have made to help their students
D、more than satisfied with the results of the latest survey
答案
B
解析
观点态度题。本文的主要话题是hospital teaching,文章开头就提到了这种现象不被人了解,然后通过一个survey的调查结果介绍了hospital teaching之不尽如人意,最后还提到了学校对住院学生也不提供什么帮助,因此选B,而非C。A、D不是最核心的问题。
