Diana Jacobs thought her family had a workable plan to pay for college for her 21-year-old twin sons:a combination of savings,income,scholarships,and a modest amount of borrowing.Then her husband lost his job,and the plan fell apart.
“I have two kids in college,and I want to say‘come home’.but at the same time I want to provide them with a good education.”says Jacobs.
The Jacobs family did work out a solution:They asked and received more aid from the schools,and each son increased his borrowing to themaximum amount through the federal loanprogram.They will each graduate with $20,000 ofdebt.but at least they will be able to finish school.
With unemployment rising,financial aidadministrators expect to hear more families like the J acobs.More students are applying for aid,andmore families expect to need student loans.Collegeadministrators are concerned that they will not have enough aid money to go around.
At the same time,tuition continues to rise.Areport from the National Center for Public Policy and Higher Education found that college tuition and feesincreased 439% from 1 982 to 2007,while average family income rose just 147%,Student borrowing has more than doubled in the last decade.
“If we go on this way for another 25 years.We won’t have an affordable system of highereducation,”says Patrick M.Callan,president of the center,“The middle class families have been financing it through debt.They will send kids to college whatever it takes,even if that means a hugeamount of debt.”
Financial aid administrators have been having a hard time as many companies decide that student loans are not profitable enough and have stopped making them.The good news,however,is that federal loans account for about three quarters of student borrowing,and the government says that money will flow uninterrupted.
What can we learn about the middle class families from the text?
选项
A、They blamed the government for the tuitionincrease.
B、Their income remained steady in the last decade.
C、They will try their best to send kids to college.
D、Their debts will be paid off within 25years.
答案
C
解析
根据第六段中的“They will send kids to college whatever it takes,even if that means a huge amount of debt.99可推断,应选C。
