Mayra Avila is looking forward to her high school prom(毕业舞会). Avila, 18, the West Potomac High School senior is, among hundreds of thousands of teenagers getting a head start on an associate’s or bachelor’s degree — and saving on tuition — by taking college courses in high school.
President Obama, who set the goal of having the United States claim the highest share of college graduates of any country by 2020, is counting on the success of students such as Avila, a Mexican immigrant whose parents never finished high school. One approach policymakers are harnessing to help students such as her: dual enrollment programmes that lower tuition and attract students who don’t think college is within reach.
The partnership between Fairfax County schools and Northern Virginia Community College sets Avila, one of six children, on a path to earn a bachelor’s degree. She wants to study dental hygiene(口腔卫生学)at the community college in the fall and then transfer to Virginia Commonwealth University. Heading straight to a four-year university isn’t an option. "If I had the opportunity, I would, but there’s no money for it," Avila said. Her English credits will make college less expensive. She’s paying reduced tuition and the high school buys the books.
"As I tell kids and parents, it’s the best deal since sliced bread," said Bruce Jankowitz, assistant principal at West Potomac High, which offers six dual-enrollment sessions in English and government, up from two last year. "These are kids who have not come from the orientation that college is in your future. It serves a niche(合适的地位)for students who are motivated to go to college — maybe they are the first in their family to go to college."
Raising the rate depends on getting more minority students into higher education. In the decade leading up to 2014-15, public high schools are expected to produce about 207,000 more Hispanic graduates — a 54 percent jump, according to a report by the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education. There will be more Asian and black graduates and fewer whites. [br] What can we know about Avila from the first three paragraphs?
选项
A、She is a college student now.
B、She plans to go to a four-year university.
C、She prefers the community college to a four-year university.
D、She will pay less college tuition than average.
答案
D
解析
第3段末提到,阿维拉的英语学分让她上大学的学费便宜了些,由此可推断出她的学费比一般学生低一些,故D)为答案。由第1段首句可知她是一个高中生,故A)项不对。第3段阿维拉说她想直接上四年制大学可是没有钱,故直接上四年制大学只是她的愿望而不是她的打算,而且可以看出她是更喜欢四年制的大学,排除B)、C)两项。
