In the United States elementary education begins at the age of six. At this stage nearly all the teachers are women, mostly married. The atmosphere is usually very friendly, and the teachers have now accepted the idea that the important thing is to make the children happy and interested. The old authoritarian (要绝对服从的) methods of education were discredited (不被认可) rather a long time ago—so much so that many people now think that they have gone too far in the direction of trying to make children happy and interested rather than giving them actual instruction.
The social education of young children tries to make them accept the idea that human beings in a society need to work together for their common good. So the emphasis is on cooperation rather than competition throughout most of this process. This may seem curious, in view of the fact that American society is highly competitive; however, the need for making people sociable in this sense has come to be regarded as one of the functions of education. Most Americans do grow up with competitive ideas, and obviously quite a few as criminals, but it is not fair to say that the educational system fails. It probably does succeed in making most people sociable and ready to help one another both in material ways and through kindness and friendliness.
Some Americans complain about elementary schools because they think______.
选项
A、children are reluctant to help each other
B、schools lay too much emphasis on cooperation
C、children should grow up with competitive ideas
D、schools give little actual instruction to children
答案
D
解析
本题考查考生对具体句子意思的理解。The old authoritarian(要绝对服从的) methods of education were discredited(不被认可)rather a long time ago—so much so that many people now think that they have gone too far in the direction of trying to make children happy and interested rather than giving them actual instruction.这句话应理解为:“绝对服从的教育方式很久以前就不被认可了,甚至于现在许多人认为在让孩子们感到快乐有趣的方向上偏离太远,还应该给他们一些实际的指导。”从以上理解我们可以判断,某些美国人抱怨初等教育的原因在于忽视了应该给孩子们一些实际的指导。因此,正确答案是D。前三项都不是抱怨的原因,而是当前初等教育所提倡的。
