Teams of teachers and school administrators from at least fourteen American cities are at a conference in Washington. The American Federation of Teachers, a labor union, holds the Quest conference every two years. This year, one of the subjects is a tutoring program that provides extra help to students in Rochester, New York. The Rochester City School District was one of five in the nation recognized by the Bush administration for their tutoring programs. Tutoring is big business in the United States these days. There are private learning centers where parents can take their children after school. Test preparation companies are also doing well. One reason for all this tutoring is the growing competition for places at top universities. Another influence is the Bush Administration’s federal education law, called No Child Left Behind. The law requires services like free tutoring for poor students at schools that fail to meet educational goals for three years. There is federal money to pay the tutors. But the No Child Left Behind law does not say who must do the tutoring. It can be a private company or local teachers. The law does say, however, that the provider must have shown a record of effectiveness in helping students learn. In Rochester, the tutoring is provided by a teachers union, the Rochester Teachers’ Association. The program began in the spring of 2003 with 47 students and 15 tutors.
Questions 30 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.
30. What organization is the host of the Quest conference?
31. Which is one of the reasons that tutoring becomes popular in the United States?
32. Who will pay the tutors in the program?
选项
A、The influence from Asian countries.
B、The growing competition from foreign students.
C、The growing competition for entrance into top universities.
D、The teachers’ need of extra income.
答案
C
解析
因果关系题。浏览选项可知,四个选项均是名词短语,从内容分析,可知可能是考查原因。文章中有明确提到在美国补习变得流行的原因之一:One reason for all this tutoring is the growing competition for places at top universities,意思是补习能够提升学生进入一流大学的竞争力。故选C。
