问题 Take the case of public education alone．The principal difficulty faced by the schools has beenthe tremendous increase in the number of pupils．This has been caused by the advance of the legalage for going into industry and the impossibility of finding a job even when the legal age has beenreache@D@In view of the technological improvements in the last few years，business will require inthe future proportionately fewer workers than ever before．The result will be still further raising ofthe legal age for going into employment，and still further difficulty in finding employment when thatage has been attaine@D@If we cannot put our children to work，we must put them in school．
We may also be quite confident that the present trend toward a shorter day and a shorter weekwill be maintaine@D@We have developed and shall continue to have a new leisure class．Already thepublic agencies for adult education are swamped by the tide that has swept over them since adepression began．They will be little better off when it is over．Their support must come from thetaxpayer．
It is surely too much to hope that these increases in the cost of public education can be borneby the local communities．They cannot care for the present restricted and inadequate system．Thelocal communities have failed in their efforts to cope with unemployment．They cannot expect tocope with public education on the scale on which we must attempt it．The answer to the problem ofunemployment has been Federal relief．The answer to the problem of public education may have tobe much the same，and properly so．If there is one thing in which the citizens of all parts of thecountry have an interest，it is in the decent education of the citizens of all parts of the country．Ourincome tax now goes in part to keep our neighbors alive．It may have to go in part as well to makeour neighbors intelligent．We are now attempting to preserve the present generation through Federalrelief of the destitute．Only a people determined to ruin the next generation will refuse such Federalfunds as public education may require．
According to the author，the answer to the problem of public education is that the Federalgovernment______.
选项 A、should allocate Federal funds for public education
B、should demand that local communities provide support
C、should raise taxes to meet the needs of public education
D、should first of all solve the problem of unemployment
答案A
解析 细节题。根据第三段第五、六句“The answer to the problem ofunemployment：has been Federal relief. The answer to  the problem of public education may have tobe much the same，and properly so．”可知，失业问题的解决靠政府救济，公共教育困难的解决也需靠政府投入。所以，选项A为正确答案。
