A college professor had his sociology class go into the Baltimore slums to get case histories of 200 young boys. They were asked to write an evaluation of each boy’s future.[33]In every case the students wrote, "He hasn’t got a chance to be successful. " 25 years later another sociology professor came across the earlier study. He had his students follow up on the project to see what had happened to these boys.[34]With the exception of 20 boys who had moved away or died, the students learned that 176 of the remaining 180 had achieved more than ordinary success as lawyers, doctors and businessmen.
    The professor was astounded and decided to pursue the matter further. Fortunately, all men were in the area and he was able to ask each one "how do you account for your success". In each case the reply came with feelings, "There was a teacher. " The teacher was still alive, so he sought her out and asked the old but still alert lady what magic formula she had used to pull these boys out of the slums into successful achievement.[35]The teacher’s eyes sparkled and her lips broke into a gentle smile, "It’s really very simple, " she said. "I loved those boys. "
32. Why did the first professor send his sociology class to the Baltimore slums?
33. What was the students’ evaluation about the future of the boys in the slums?
34. What happened to the boys in the slums 25 years later?
35. What accounted for the change of the boys’ destinies?

选项 A、All of them became very successful.
B、Most of them lived an ordinary life.
C、Most of them achieved great success.
D、No clues were found about them.

答案 C

解析 细节题。文中提到,25年后另一位教授派学生去调查那200名男孩,他们发现除了搬家或死亡的20人之外,剩余的180名男孩中有176人都取得了非同一般的成就(achieved more than ordinary success),也就是说大多数当年的男孩都取得了great success,故答案为[C]。
