Nationwide, the overall dropout rate is 【S3】______ 29%. Many say they drop out because they are bored. Because of this, U.S. educators are trying to figure out a way to stop this 【S4】______ trend.

This school received a hundred-thousand, dollar 【S6】______ to pay students who are at risk of dropping out. When these students go to school on time, bring their notebooks, and do their homework, they 【S7】______ five dollars a day. This means students can bring home a twenty-five dollar check every week for going to classes five days in a row. While the program is new, the principal claims that he has already achieved a higher rate of 【S8】______ with this money incentive. But some say it is too early to talk about the program’s 【S9】______.

选项
答案
I
解析
根据In West Virginia and in New York…one out of four students及后面的In Washington, D.C….are even worse可以看出,前后两句属于对比关系,而且很明显对比的内容应是统计数据,因此选I. statistics。注意absence“缺席;缺勤”和dropout“辍学”属于不同的概念,因此不能选E.。
