考研英语阅读命题思路透析和真题揭秘(39)
1994年Passage 3
Exceptional children are different in some significant way from others of the same age. For these children to develop to their full adult potential, their education must be adapted to those differences.
Although we focus on the needs of exceptional children, we find ourselves describing their environment as well. While the leading actor on the stage captures our attention, we are aware of the importance of the supporting players and the scenery of the play itself. Both the family and the society in which exceptional children live are often the key to their growth and development. And it is in the public schools that we find the full expression of society' s understanding-the knowledge, hopes, and fears that are passed on to the next generation.
Education in any society is a mirror of that society. In that minor we can see the strengths, the weaknesses, the hopes, the prejudices, and the central values of the culture itself. The great interest in exceptional children shown in public education over the past three decades indicates the strong feeling in our society that all citizens, whatever their special conditions, deserve the opportunity to fully develop their capabilities.
"All men are created equal." We've heard it many times, but it still has important meaning for education in a democratic society. Although the phrase was used by this country's founders to denote equality before the law, it has also been interpreted to mean equality of opportunity. That concept implies educational opportunity for all children-the right of each child to receive help in learning to the limits of his or her capacity, whether that capacity be small or great. Recent court decisions have confirmed the right of all children-disabled or not-to an appropriate education, and have ordered that public schools take the necessary steps to provide that education. In response, schools are modifying their programs, adapting instruction to children who are exceptional, to those who cannot profit substantially from regular programs.
62. From this passage we learn that the educational concern for exceptional children ___.
[A] is now enjoying legal support
[B] disagrees with the tradition of the country
[C] was clearly stated by the country` s founders
[D] will exert great influence over court decisions
[答案] A
[解题思路]
本题对应于文章最后一段,其中倒数第二句话指出"Recent court decisions have confirmed the right of all children-disabled or not-to an appropriate education, and have ordered that public schools take the necessary steps to provide that education"(最近的法庭裁决已再次确定了所有儿童--不论残疾与否--都有接受相适应的教育的权利,并已命令公立学校采取必要的措施来提供这种教育),因此A选项符合题意。该段中第三、四句话指出"Although the phrase was used by this country's founders to denote equality before the law, it has also been interpreted to mean equality of opportunity. That concept implies educational opportunity for all children-the right of each child to receive help in learning to the limits of his or her capacity, whether that capacity be small or great"(尽管这句话被国家缔造者们用来预示法律面前人人平等,它也被解释为机会面前人人平等。这一概念暗示了所有儿童都有接受教育的机会--即每个儿童,不管其本身的能力大小与否,都有权利在学习上最大限度地得到帮助),因此对特殊儿童的教育关注是符合这个国家的"机会平等的传统"的,因此B选项是错误的。C选项的错误在于开国元勋们并没有提到这个问题。D则不符合倒数第二句话的意思。
[题目译文]
从这篇文章中我们了解到,对特殊儿童的教育关于 。
[A] 现在得到了法律上的支持
[B] 与国家的传统相背离
[C] 早在建国初期先驱们就已有明确表述
