问题 Public education suffers from what can be diagnosed as the sickness of an overgoverned society. This sickness denies many parents control over the kind of education their children receive. The power once held by parents has gravitated to professional educators. The sickness has been aggravated by increasing centralization and bureaucratization of schools. Which of the following, if true, would weaken the claim that there is continuing erosion of parents’ control over their children’s education?

选项 A、As a result of community pressure, growing numbers of school administrators follow recommendations made by parents.
B、The number of professional educators has risen sharply over the last decade even though the number of students has declined.
C、Parents’ organizations that lobby for changes in school curriculums are generally ineffectual.
D、More members of school boards are appointed by school administrators than are elected by the public.
E、The use of state-wide curriculum programs increased in the Untied States during the past two decades.

答案A

解析 本题问题目的清晰,可直接用问题目的中的核心关键词“parents”去定位选项,发现(A)、(C)中有“parents”而(C)为支持选项,所以(A)正确。注意:本题若加大难度,可把问题目的中的“the claim”的内容去掉,让大家自己寻求反对内容。这时,若我们用A’表示professional educators,用A表示parents,用B表示控制孩子的教育,那么段落推理模式为“A’,not A→B”,因此若用“A导致A’”的思路定位选项,发现(A)完全吻合,所以(A)为正确答案。
