Something happened in the 1970’s: the price of oil increased tremendously, driving up the price of almost everything and making Americans aware that their large automobiles used a lot of gasoline. At the same time, foreign car manufacturers had begun to produce small fuel-efficient cars in large quantities for the export market. Suddenly, the large, gas-consuming American cars were no longer attractive to American buyers, who began buying foreign cars by the thousands. The American automobile industry went into a depression. Thousands of automotive workers were laid off, as were thousands of people in industries indirectly connected with the auto industry. People who are laid off tend to keep what money they have for necessities, like food and housing. They do not have the extra money needed to send their children to college. Their children cannot pay their own college costs, because during a depression they cannot find jobs. High unemployment means that more state funds must be used for social service — unemployment benefits and to aid dependent children, fox example — than during more prosperous times. It also means, that the states have fewer funds than usual, because people are paying fewer taxes. Institutions of higher education depend on two major sources of income to keep them functioning: tuition from students and funds from the states. At the present time, there are fewer students than in the past and fewer state funds available for higher education. The colleges and universities are in trouble.
选项
A、Young people couldn’t afford their own tuition in the 1970’s.
B、Fewer parents could afford to send their children to college in the 1970’s.
C、It’s difficult for graduates from colleges to find a job in the 1970’s.
D、Institutions of higher education depend mainly on government in the 1970’s.
答案
D
解析
该题问“哪种说法不对?”文中“Institutions of higher education depend on two major sources of income to keep them functioning: tuition from students and funds from the states.”表明了大学资金来源有两个,并不是完全依赖政府。因此,我们可以断定D“二十世纪七十年代高等教育主要依赖政府”这一说法是不对的。
