问题     One-room schools are part of the heritage of the United States, and the mention of them makes people feel a vague long for the way things were. One-room schools are an endangered species, however. For more than a hundred years, one-room schools have been systematically shut down and their students sent away to centralized schools. As recently as 1930 there were 149,000 one-room schools in the United States. By 1970 there were 1,800. Today, of nearly 800 remaining one-room schools. More than 350 are in Nebraska. The rest are scattered through a few other states that have on their road maps wide-open spaces between towns.
    Now that there are hardly any left, educators are beginning to think that maybe there is something yet to be learned from one-room schools, something that served the pioneers that might serve as well today. Progressive educators have come up with progressive-sounding names like "peer-group teaching" and "multi-age grouping" for educational procedures that occur naturally in the one-room schools. In a one-room school the children teach each other because the teacher is busy part of the time teaching someone else. A fourth grader can work at a fifth-grade level in math and a third-grade level in English without the stigma associated with being left back or the pressures of being skipped ahead. A youngster with a learning disability can find his or her own level without being separated from the other pupils. In larger urban and suburban schools today, this is called "main streaming". A few hours in a small school that has only one classroom and it becomes clear why so many parents feel that one of the advantages of living in Nebraska is that their children have to go to a one-room school. [br] We learn from the first paragraph mat one-room schools______.
选项 A、are the best in Nebraska
B、are becoming more and more centralized
C、have has a strong influence on American people
D、need to be shut down
答案 C
解析 细节题。从文章第一段来看，第一句说“一间房学校是美国的遗产的一部分，提及这些学校人们都会感到一阵说不清的渴望”，接下来叙述一间房学校的数量越来越少，学校逐渐被关闭，而孩子们都被送到centralized schools。从四个选项看，A项“Nebraska的一间房学校是最好的”，B项“变得越来变得越来集中化”，C项“对美国人有很大的影响”，D项“需要被关闭”。四个选项中A项第一段没有提及，B项和D项与原文表述不一致，所以结合第一句话来看，此选项C最合适。
