The United States Values the Disable and Sick Child’s Education
The Supreme Court will hear arguments about the use of public money for the private schooling of children with special needs. It’s interesting to note what’s not at issue: namely, that when a public school system is unable to provide an appropriate education, it has to pay the costs of private school.
The case to be heard by the court is about whether parents have to enroll a child with special needs in public school before the child can attend private school at public expense. Special-education advocates say students shouldn’t have to waste time before being placed in a setting that best suits their needs, while school boards worry about a ruling that could amount to an unfettered right to private schooling at public expense. What strikes us about the emotionally charged debate is the acceptance by both sides that sometimes it is appropriate to use public money to pay for a child go to a private school. So. why all the argument about the approximately $ 14 million for a federally funded program that lets 1,700 D. C. students attend private schools instead of failing public schools?
To hear critics of the D. C. Opportunity Scholarship Program tell it. The use of public money for private schooling is as unprecedented, in addition to the billions of dollars spent annually on private school tuitions for students with disabilities, private schools get public money for books, technology and teacher training. As long as the money is seen as benefiting the child, it is considered a proper, even desirable, use of public dollars.
Don’t get us wrong. We’re not arguing for the unilateral right of parents to enroll their sons and daughters in any school they wish with the taxpayer picking up the bill. Abuse of special education policies has contributed to increase costs that threaten to take needed money from general public education funds. Safeguards are needed. Public schools should be pressed to do a better job for students with disabilities and students without. But there are schools in Washington where statistics show that failure is almost guaranteed. If a school system can’t educate a child whether because of acute special needs or its own historical failings why should that child not have options for a "free appropriate public education"?
We may infer from the argument at the Supreme Court that______.
选项
A、too much public money is put into the private schools for children of special need
B、public school system doesn’t offer an appropriate education to students of special need
C、people consider it is reasonable to use public money for certain students’ private schooling
D、people find it is amusing arguing about spending public money for private schooling
答案
C
解析
推理判断题。由题干关键词the argument at the Supreme Court定位到第一段。由第一句可知:人们在法庭上争论的焦点在于投入到私立学校的那部分资金的使用问题。隐含的前提则是:公共费用应该用于这些孩子接受私立教育的费用。所以第二句才说:注意有一点很有意思,双方都没有争议的是:当公立学校无法提供合适的教育时,它就需要为私立学校教育支付费用。因此[C]“人们认为用公共资金支付特定学生的私立学校费用是合理的”为正确答案。法庭争论中并没有提到是否花钱太多,因此排除[A];在本段也没有提到公立学校的教育质量问题,故排除[B];而[D]“人们认为把公共资金投入到私立学校中很滑稽",在文章中没有任何依据,故排除。
