问题 Why does the author say that parents are the true fighters in the college-admissions wars?
Why do parents urge their children to apply to more schools than ever?

选项 A、They want to increase their children’s chances of entering a prestigious college.
B、They hope their children can enter a university that offers attractive scholarships.
C、Their children will have a wider choice of which college to go to.
D、Elite universities now enroll fewer students than they used to.

答案A

解析 由题干中parents urge their children to apply to more schools than ever可定位到第二段第二句:Fearful parents urge their children to apply to more schools than ever。本题为推断题。本题还是对原文的一种现象提问原因,原文并未直接提及,但是我们可以从字里行间看出答案。第二段第一句说家长还是存在一种名牌大学的恐慌,即担心孩子无法进入名牌大学。由此萌生让孩子多申请的想法。第三句紧接着提出名校毕业生的种种优势,如能够接受更好的教育,更有可能成功等等。由此推断,家长们让孩子向更多的大学提出申请是为了保障孩子有更多的机会迈入名校门槛。A)“他们想增加孩子进入名校的机会”与原文意思吻合,因此选项A)是本题的正确答案。
