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、It may produce an increasing number of idle youngsters.
B、It may affect the quality of higher education in America.
C、It may cause many schools to go out of operation.
D、It may lead to a lack of properly educated workers.
答案
D
解析
Why are many Americans concerned with the increasing dropout rate in school?
四个选项的动词produce,affect,cause,lead to均为表示结果或影响的词语,由此推测本题可能提问某一事件带来的后果或影响。文章在开头处就提出了学生辍学率不断提高所带来的不良影响:Coupled with this fact is the warning that soon we will no longer have a workforce to fill the many jobs that require properly-educated personnel,即将来会导致缺乏具有适当教育水平的社会劳动力。这也正是许多美国人担心此事的原因,所以本题的正确答案为D)。
