Surprisingly, no one knows how many children receive education in English hospitals, still less the content or quality of that education. Proper records are just not kept.
We know that more than 850,000 children go through hospital each year, and that every child of school age has a legal right to continue to receive education while in hospital.
Little wonder the latest survey concludes that the extent and type of hospital teaching available differ a great deal across the country. It is found that half of the hospitals in England which admit children have no teacher. A further quarter have only a part-time teacher. The special children’s hospitals in major cities do best; general hospitals in the county and holiday areas are worst off.
From this survey, one can estimate that fewer than one in five children have some contact with a hospital teacher and that contact may be as little as two hours a day. Most children interviewed were surprised to find a teacher in hospital at all. They had not been prepared for it by parents or their own school. If there was a teacher they were much more likely to read books and do math or number work; without a teacher they would only play games.
Reasons for hospital teaching range from preventing a child falling behind and maintaining the habit of school to keeping a child occupied, and the latter is often all the teacher can do. The position and influence of many teachers was summed up when parents referred to them as "the library lady" or just "the helper".
Children tend to rely on intimate school friends to keep in touch with school work. Once back at school, children rarely get extra teaching, and are told to catch up as best as they can.
Many short-stay child-patients catch up quickly. But schools do very little to ease the anxiety about falling behind expressed by many of the children interviewed.
The hospital teachers are found______.
选项
A、not welcomed by the children and their parents
B、unnecessary
C、not quite helpful
D、capable
答案
C
解析
从第五段可以看出,教师的作用只是让孩子过得比较充实,他们对于孩子和家长来说,只不过是 "the library lady" or just "the helper",帮助有限。所以选C,同时排除D。由第四段倒数第二句They had not been prepared for it by parents or their own school可知家长和孩子只是没有想到医院里还可以有老师,并不是对此不欢迎或认为没有必要,所以A和B可以被排除。
