Business leaders and educators were at the National Geographic Society headquarters in Washington D.C.recently to unveil a new public education campaign designed to give kids the tools to become better world citizens. Janice Bell is Research Director for the Roper public polling organization, which is part of the campaign. "You know, our futures are much more tightly tied together including that of the United States and the world.And we are really finding that young people are unprepared for this increasingly global future." The survey included 510’people between the ages of 18 and 24 from all over the US. They were asked basic questions about world geography and current events using maps and other materials. The results were startling to some. Ms. Bell adds, "Yes, young Americans had a hard time finding certain countries on a map or a region of the world.But what was more important, this (demonstrates) a lack of a functional knowledge."

选项 A、American Youth Failing Geography
B、United States and the Whole World
C、American Youth
D、A New Public Education Campaign

答案A

解析 本文考查学生对文章中心意思的把握。文章通过他人的实验和口述,主要强调美国当代青年基本地理知识的缺乏和下降。所以,a项正确,b,c、d虽然在文中提到了但是并非主旨。
