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、Because children are more interested in learning foreign languages.
B、Because children may become clerks in different department.
C、Because children may remember more words of a foreign language.
D、Because children may learn a foreign language more easily than adults.
答案
D
解析
从题目所给核心名词children,foreign, language,adults以及核心动词remember, learn可知,该题可能考查与孩子外语学习有关。可以从“Research shows that children have an easier time than adults learning languages(研究表明孩子比成人在学习语言方面更轻松)”得知,由于孩子学习外语语言相对容易,应该加强对他们外语语言的教育力度,故可推测出正确答案。
