Americans who remember "the good old clays" are not alone in complaining about the educational system in this country. Immigrants(移民)complain, too. Lately a German friend was filled with anger when he learned that the mathematics test given to his son on his first day as a college freshman included multiplication and division. Japanese businessmen in Los Angeles send their children to private schools staffed by teachers imported from Japan to learn mathematics at Japanese levels, generally considered at least a year more advanced than the level here.
But I wonder: If American education is so poor, why is it that this is still the country of innovation(创新)?
When I was 12 in Indonesia, I had to memorize the name of all the world’s major cities, from Kabul to Karachi. At the same age, my son, who was brought up by a Californian, thought that Buenos Aires was Spanish for good food. However, unlike children of his age in Asia and Europe, my son had studied creative geography. When he was only 6, he drew a map of the route that he traveled to get to school, including the streets, the traffic signs and the houses that he passed.
Dissatisfied American parents forget that in this country their children are able to experiment freely with ideas; without this they will not really able to think or to believe in themselves.
Critics of American education cannot grasp one thing: freedom. America, I think, is the only country that extends even to children the license to freely speak, write and be creative. Our public education certainly is not perfect, but it is a great deal better than any other. I think I have found the answer to my question. [br] Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
选项
A、If children are not allowed to experiment freely with ideas they won’t grow up independent and creative.
B、Most Americans think the present American educational system is not as good as it used to be.
C、Private schools run by Japanese businessmen maintain a higher level than American public schools.
D、Americans are more innovative than the other people in the world.
答案
A
解析
本题属于推理判断题,提问的是从文章中我们可以得出哪个暗示。选项B)中的“大部分美国人”显然与事实不符;根据文章内容,配备了日本教师的私立学校在数学教学方面的进度更快,但不能说水平更高,而且也没有提到是日本商人开办的,因此选项C)不准确;作者谈到美国是一个崇尚创新的社会,但不能就说美国人比其他国家的人更有创新性,因此选项D)也不准确;选项A)的内容正是文章的主题,作者认为的美国教育的优势所在,故应为正确答案。
