President Bush has proposed to increase the study of foreign languages in American schools (29). The new plan is called the National Security Language Initiative. It will involve the departments of State, Education and Defense, and the director of National Intelligence.
The plan calls for teaching foreign languages to more children, as early as the age of four. It also aims to increase foreign language instruction in college and graduate school. The hope is to bring more foreign language speakers into government service. Administration officials will ask for 114 million dollars in 2007 to start the program. They say too many American children learn only English. They say only 44 percent of American high school students take any foreign language. And 70 percent of those are learning Spanish.
Officials say money would be used to help foreign-language students pay for their education in exchange for future service. The plan also calls for sending more American students to other countries for part of their college studies. And it calls for bringing more foreign language teaching assistants to the United States(31). Officials say the United States does not have enough foreign language teachers. Research shows that children have an easier time than adults learning languages(30), Yet less than 1/3 of American elementary schools teach languages other than English. And experts say most of these schools just teach the basics, not how to speak a foreign language well.
选项
A、Investing more money in studying the teaching methods of foreign languages.
B、Hiring more foreign language teaching assistants in American schools.
C、Starting earlier foreign language teaching in American elementary schools.
D、Sending more American students to other countries to study their language.
答案
A
解析
从题目选项核心动词sending,hiring,starting,investing可以得知,该题可能考查与外语学习有关的措施。可以从“The plan also calls for sending more American students to other countries for part of their college studies. And it calls for bringing more foreign language teaching assistants to the United States(计划呼吁派遣更多的美国学生到外国读大学并向美国引进更多的外语助教)”得知,这些都是具体的措施,但没有具体提到投入更多的钱研究外语教学法,故可推测出正确答案。
