However, there is added emphasis on logical thinking and creative problem solving, to which there may be several equally valid solutions.解题导语本文讲述了美国学生无法掌握数学基本概念的现象、原因及相应的对策。4What does the underlined sentence probably mean?AStudents with low scores fear to ask their teachers for help.BPoor equipment in classrooms limits teens chances to learn.CMath anxiety, hardly noticed, is actually a silent call for help.DPoorsighted students cant see clearly, which is a silent call for help.C解析：句意理解题。根据上下文及画线句前面的“Embarrassment about not knowing math can lead to fear in the classroom.Fear can lead to silence because students do not want to draw attention to their lack of knowledge.”可知，学生会因自己不懂某些数学知识感到尴尬，而这又会使他们产生恐惧心理，恐惧可能导致沉默，因为学生不想让人注意到自己知识匮乏，相应地，老师也就会忽略学生这方面的不足，由此可知，C项最能传达该画线句的含义。5Which may lead to American students innumeracy?AThe methods of teaching.BThe difficulty of math itself.CStudents lack of interest in math.DSchools not attaching enough value to it.A解析：细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“in addition to poor education”及第四段的内容尤其是“Math reform is beginning with the educators themselves.Teachers are now being trained to recognize and to help students.gaining competence in mathematics.”可知，教学方法可能是美国学生不能掌握数学基本概念的原因。6What may be discussed in the following paragraph?AWhat to be taught in Americas revised math programs.BHow to make math reform actually benefit American students.CHow to im
