President Bush has proposed to increase the study of foreign languages in American schools. 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 collage studies. And it calls for bringing more foreign language teaching assistants to the United States. Officials say the United States does not have enough foreign language teachers. Research shows that children have an easier time than adults learning languages. 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 bow to speak a foreign language well.
What is the purpose of the plan proposed by President Bush?
Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the program?
选项
A、Sending more American students to other countries to study their languages.
B、Hiring more foreign language teaching assistants in American schools.
C、Starting earlier foreign language teaching in American elementary schools.
D、Investing more money in studying the teaching methods of foreign languages.
答案
D
解析
本题问“下面哪项内容是本讨划没有提及的?”短文谈到,The plan also calls for sending more American students to other countries for part of their college studies. And it calls for bridging more foreign language teaching assistants to the United States.也就是说,计划提及了向国外输送更多的美国大学生和向美国国内引进更多的外语助教,排除了[A]和[B];最后又提到,Research shows that children have an easier time than adults learning languages. Yet less than 1/30 of American elementary schools teach languages other than English.因此[C]在美国的小学开展早期的外语教育也被排除。但[D]的相关内容短文中没有捉到,据此可以确定[D]“在外语教学方法的研究上投入更多的财力”正确。
