Goal of American Education
Education is all enormous and expensive part of American life. Its size is matched by its variety.
Differences in American schools compared with those found in the majority of other countries lie in the fact that education here has long been intended for everyone — not just for a privileged(享有特权的) elite(精英). Schools are expected to meet the needs of every child, regardless of ability, and also the needs of society itself. This means that public schools offer more than academic subjects. It surprises many people when they come here to find high schools offering such courses as typing, sewing, radio repair, computer programming or driver training, along with traditional academic subjects such as mathematics, history, and languages. Students choose their curricula depending on their interests, future goals, and level of ability. The underlying goal of American education is to develop every child to the utmost of his or her own possibilities, and to give each one a sense of civic(公民的)and community consciousness.
Schools have traditionally played an important role in creating national unity and "Americanizing" the millions of immigrants who have poured into this country from many different backgrounds and origins. Schools still play a large role in the community, especially in the small towns.
The approach to teaching may seem unfamiliar to many, not only because it is informal, but also because there is not much emphasis on learning facts. Instead, Americans try to teach their children to think for themselves and to develop their own intellectual and creative abilities. Students spend much time, learning how to use resource materials, libraries, statistics and computers. Americans believe that if children are taught to reason well and to research wei1, they will be able to find whatever facts they need throughout the rest of their lives. Knowing how to solve problems is considered more important than the accumulation (积聚) of facts.
This is America’s answer to the searching question that thoughtful parents all over the world are asking themselves in the fast-moving time: "How can one prepare today’s child for a tomorrow that one can neither predict nor understand?"
According to the passage, American education meets the needs of all the following EXCEPT
选项
A、the brightest students.
B、the slow students.
C、the students from foreign countries.
D、the immigrants.
答案
C
解析
借助第31题的理解:美国教育致力于培养每个学生的能力,因此判断A和B都应该是美国教育能满足的对象。利用备选项C和D中的核心词(from foreign countries,immigrants)作为答案线索,这样找到答案相关句:Schools have traditionally played an important role in creating national unity and Americanizing the millions of immigrants who have poured into this country from many different backgrounds and origins.该句说:美国学校在国家团结和使数百万美国移民者美国化上起着重要的作用。该句间接的暗示了美国教育能满足移民者的需要,因此只有C没有提到,故选C。
