问题 Why do most parents feel embarrassed when their children graduate from high school?
Much of a parent’s job is to provide the gifts of caring, love, and emotional support to children. But one gift is beyond their reach: the resources to meet the financial demands of college tuition. For more than 54 years, the United Negro College Fund has fulfilled the dreams of deserving students by closing the gap between the cost of college and what their parents can afford. More than 300,000 students have graduated from United Negro College Fund member colleges since 1944 and 54,000 more are currently enrolled. The oldest and most successful minority higher education support organization, the United Negro College Fund is a combination of 39 private, historically black member colleges and universities. Since its founding, it has raised more than $1.3 billion to keep the dream alive for needy families across the country. What is it that makes the United Negro College Fund so important to America’s families? As well as raising funds and giving technical support to member colleges and universities, it creates hope and opportunity by providing financial assistance to deserving students. Consider the contributions of just a few of the distinguished graduates who have realized the benefits: civil rights activist Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.; opera diva Leontyne Price; Olympic track star Edwin Moses; and filmmaker Spike Lee.

选项 A、Because they can’t afford their children’s college tuition.
B、Because they can’t offer their children emotional support.
C、Because they can’t look after their children.
D、Because they can’t give their children birthday gifts.

答案 A

解析 细节题。原文提到:大多数黑人家庭感到窘迫的是无力支付子女上大学的费用,因此,答案A正确。选项B和选项C分别是提供感情支持和抚养照顾,都是父母力所能及的义务,无所谓感到窘迫;选项D是给子女生日礼物,文中未提及。
