In only two decades Asian Americans have become the fastest-growing U.S. minority. As their children began moving up through the nation’s schools, it became clear that a new class of academic achievers was emerging. Their achievements are reflected in the nation’s best universities, where mathematics, science and engineering departments have taken on a decidedly Asian character. This special liking for mathematics and science is partly explained by the fact that Asian-American students who began their educations abroad arrived in the U.S. with a solid grounding in mathematics but little or no knowledge of English. They are also influenced by the promises of a good job after college. Asians feel there will be less unfair treatment in areas like mathematics and science because they will be judged more objectively. And the return on the investment in education is more immediate in something like engineering than with an arts degree.
Most Asian-American students owe their success to the influence of parents who are determined that their children take full advantage of what the American educational system has to offer. An effective measure of parental attention is homework. Asian parents spend more time with their children than American parents do, and it helps. Many researchers also believe there is something in Asian culture that breeds success, such as ideals that stress family values and emphasize education.
Both explanations for academic success worry Asian Americans because of fears that they feed a typical racial image. Many can remember when Chinese, Japanese and Filipino immigrants were the victims of social isolation. Indeed, it was not until 1952 that laws were laid down giving all Asian immigrants the right to citizenship. [br] What are the major factors that determine the success of Asian Americans?
选项
A、Solid foundation in basic mathematics and Asian culture.
B、Hard work and intelligence.
C、Hard work and a limited knowledge of English.
D、Asian culture and the American educational system.
答案
D
解析
文章第2段第1句说明了第一个原因是American educational system,最后一句说明了第二个原因为Asian culture,即选项D。选项A中的solid foundation in basic mathematics在文章第1段提到。但这只是亚裔美国学生偏爱数学和理工科的部分原因,选项B和C无原文依据,且选项C后半部分也不合情理。
