[A] Fewer children attend Catholic schools now
[B] Change in higher-income families will lead to change of private school pool
[C] The tuition of private schools are unaffordable to most Americans
[D] The loss of many Catholic schools
[E] Worries about inequality and income segregation
[F] Change of the 10% children attending private schools
[G] The Catholic Church dominate America’s private school
In 1925, the U. S. Supreme Court issued a ruling that cemented the country’s thinking on school choice: Families had the right to decide where to send their children to school and thus could choose private education. Catholic schools, which were the target of the lawsuit, rejoiced. They could continue serving as an alternative to the United States’ system of "common schools. "
【R1】__________
The Catholic Church went on to dominate America’s private-school world for several decades. But starting in the 1970s that dominance started to fade. Today, the number of students who attend Catholic schools ( roughly 1. 8 million children) is fewer than half of what it was half a century ago, according to an analysis of federal data published in the latest issue of Education Next. The National Catholic Education Association says that more than 100 Catholic schools were consolidated or closed altogether during the 2017-2018 year alone.
【R2】__________
This trend isn’t just a source of concern for the Catholic community. It’s also troubling to those worried about growing inequality and income segregation in the education system as a whole. As the new Education Next report concludes, the demise of Catholic education is correlated with a decline in the share of middle-class students attending independent schools.
【R3】__________
The tuition charged by private schools—which in the 2010-2011 academic year, the most recent year for which such data is available, averaged about $11,000 annually—renders them out of reach for most Americans. Just 10 percent of school-aged children in the U. S. attend a private school.
【R4】__________
That number has been largely the same for decades. What has changed is the demographic makeup of that 10 percent—and that’s in part because of the loss of many Catholic schools, which have historically sought to enroll lower-income families by keeping tuition low and providing financial aid.
【R5】__________
The private-school pool is more predictably affluent ( and likely whiter) because private schools are usually more expensive than Catholic schools and tend to serve higher-income families. As families of color become more affluent, that trend will likely change as they too pursue other non-public educational options for their children.
【R4】
选项
答案
F
解析
本段的关键句为“现在改变的是10%的学生构成”,后面讲述的是改变的原因,因此不能选择[D]“天主教学校的收入损失”,而应该选[F]“10%的学生构成的变化”。
