Getting ready to go back to school in the good old days of, say, 1998 meant a few trips to the mall and a quick check of the bus route. This year, for many parents, there are some new things to remember: the teacher’s e-mail address, the school’s website and which night online homework helps chat will be offered. "The 1999-2000 school year will be the one when the majority of parents really feel the Internet’s influence on their children’s education at the everyday level," says Jonathan Carson, chairman of the family education co., which offers a parenting website at www. family education, com and a framework for local schools to create and maintain their own sites.
This year promises to show a quantum leap in the spread of school technology: Parents in many districts can expect to be able to check the school lunch menu, read class notes, see activity calendar and view nightly homework assignments — all online. "The schools are wired," says Carson, "A majority of parents now have access and the educators are ready to go."
Over the summer, parents of high school German students in Ithaca, N. Y. got to be part of a class to Europe, through their home computers. The class brought a digital camera and laptop with them to Germany and documented their visit on their web page. Hazy Ash, father of 16-year-old traveler Brian, found it reassuring to see his son’s smiling face from half a world away. Before their kids left, parents had checked the site for scheduling information, a list of activities and advice on cultural differences.
When it’s designed well, a district, school or classroom website can change the relationship between the parents and the school, says Cynthia Lapier, Ithaca’s director of information and instructional technology. "The more you can involve parents in school, the better," Lapier says, "the technology gives us another way to reach them, especially parents of secondary school students, who tend to be less involved."
Ithaca high school physics teacher, Stever Wirt, gets e-mails from parents regularly, some from the parents he believes might otherwise not pick up the phone with a concern. Using software called blackboard course info, Wirt conducts online chats with his students often reviewing for a quiz or discussing homework problems.
The way things are going, by the end of this year, many parents may be fully converted — and in fact dependent upon their schools’ technological capabilities. At a recently wired school in Novi, Michigan, the school webmaster was just a few hours late posting the lunch-menu calendar on the website. In that time, more than a dozen parents called him by telephone to request the information. "A year ago, it never would have been there," says Carson. And now parents are finding it’s tough to get by without it. [br] "The schools are wired. A majority of parents now have access and the educators are ready to go." (Sentence 2, Para. 2) means that______.
选项
A、the schools and parents are connected by the Internet so that teachers will leave school
B、parents can find out what happens to their children in school by visiting Internet
C、parents and educators may discover that schools are strange by using computers
D、the schools are online and parents now can teach their children and the teachers are to go
答案
B
解析
由题干可定位到第2段的最后一句,意为“学校联网了,大多数家长有机会了解孩子在校的情况,教育者们也准备好了”。意思是说家长和教师都能够利用互联网的便利条件,因此B项“家长可以通过访问因特网了解孩子信息”为正确选项。A项与原文不符,老师不会离开学校。C项意为“家长和教育者通过电脑发现学校很奇怪”,与原文不符。D项所述内容在文中并未提及。
