问题     Much of a parent’s job is to provide the gifts of caring, love, and emotional support to children. But one gift is often beyond their reach: the resources to meet the financial demands of college tuition.
    For more than 54 years, the United Negro College Fund has fulfilled the dreams of deserving students by closing the gap between the cost of college and what their parents can afford. More than 300,000 students have graduated from United Negro College Fund member colleges since 1944, and 54,000 more are currently enrolled.
    The oldest and most successful minority higher education support organization, the United Negro College Fund, is a combination of 39 private, historically black member colleges and universities. Since its founding, it has raised more than $1.3 billion to keep the dream alive for needy families across the country.
    What is it that makes the United Negro College Fund so important to America’s families ? As well as raising funds and giving technical support to member colleges and universities, it creates hope and opportunity by providing financial assistance to deserving students. Consider the contributions of just a few of the distinguished graduates who have realized the benefits: civil rights activist Dr. Martin Luther King; Olympic track star Edwin Moses; and filmmaker Spike Lee.
Most of parents fell embarrassed when their children graduate from high school because they can’t ______.

选项 A、afford their children’s college tuition
B、offer their children emotional support
C、look after their children
D、give them gifts on their birthdays

答案A

解析 本题属于细节题。问题是:“当他们的孩子高中毕业时大多数家长感到困窘,因为他们不能……”从文章的第一段第二句话可以得出结论,大多数父母承担不起孩子上大学的费用。因此A为正确答案。
