這是一段談?wù)撁绹鴮W(xué)校教育情況的文章,文中介紹了美國小學(xué)、中學(xué)、大學(xué) 的基本概況。
1.C。美國有些州規(guī)定孩子16歲之前必須接受義務(wù)教育。until不只用于 not...until句型中,B項(xiàng)的含義包 括16歲之后,不合題意。
2. A。leave school 意為畢業(yè)(離校), 英國英語用secondary school 指中學(xué),與middle sc hool同義,下文的highschool(美國英語,指中 學(xué))包括junior/senior high school(初/高中)。
3.B
4.B
5.C。由于學(xué)校經(jīng)費(fèi)來自政府,美國公立學(xué)校不收費(fèi), 因此美國大 部分家長還是將孩子送到公立 學(xué)校讀書。
6.C。下面的盡管這些學(xué)校收費(fèi)昂貴,說明前面still后應(yīng)為肯定私立學(xué)校, 因此,B、D項(xiàng)排除。
7.D。go on to universities表示繼續(xù)上大學(xué)深造。
8.D。象travel/visit之類的動(dòng)詞,按常理可排除。
9.A。下文的good working habits and live by their own hands說明美 國許多大學(xué)生是靠勤工儉學(xué)完成 學(xué)業(yè)的。這反映了美國青年的獨(dú)立意識(shí)。
10.A。develop在這兒指(培)養(yǎng)成……習(xí)慣。屬習(xí)慣搭配。
