The outside world begins creeping into the school when the children reach the age of 13 and older, the age when they begin to make subject choices and when, according to a careers officer, they know if they’re a scientific lot or more inclined to the arts. The difficult part is bringing the outside world to life with all its opportunities and realities. Schools are handicapped because they are staffed by people who only know about schools. Careers services are heavily influenced by what is readily available in the area, which may be sausage-making(香肠制造) in Wiltshire of ship-building in Clydeside. Somewhere out in the world there are snail (蜗牛) geneticists (遗传学家) and landscape gardeners and girls who polish Elizabeth Taylor’s diamonds, but the careers officer knows little of them. What he knows about is engineering and hairdressing and opportunities in the Army. It is not surprising that this constant friction between grand aspirations (抱负) and uninspired reality produces cynicism (玩世不恭,愤世嫉俗) in both parties.
Wherever they work, sixteen and seventeen-year-olds can find themselves used as cheap labor, picking things up off floors, fetching and carrying. Some are paid a reasonable wage but it is quite possible to be paid only pocket-money. That’s in the living-in jobs like hotel work. There is a small breakthrough of girls into traditionally male preserves like agriculture, but that may be because very few boys now would put up with the low wages. Most girls, despite women’s liberation, head straight for hairdressing, nursing or office work and dream of being swept off their feet by the boss.
In what sense does the author say the outside world begins "creeping into schools" when children first make subject choices?
选项
A、Children begin to become interested in careers possibly open to them.
B、Children know what they are good at science or arts.
C、Children start to make constant contact with careers officers.
D、Children start to be concerned with what occupations they will be able to obtain.
答案
A
解析
文章第一段“the age when they begin to make subject choices and when,according to a careers officer,they know if they’re a scientific lot or more inclined to the arts.”因此正确答案为A。
