This week, we report about another public school change, a shorter school week.In most of the United States, students attend classes for 5 days each week. Schools are supposed to hold classes for about 180 days a year. Recently, schools in some areas of the country have begun experimenting with the new teaching schedule (时间安排）of holding classes for 4 days a week. Classes would meet either Monday through Thursday, or Tuesday through Friday. Some schools in 12 American states are now using that schedule.The students still have the same number of total (总、的)hours in class as before. But they attend school for a longer time on each of the 4 days. In Colorado, schools on the four-day week hold classes for 7.5 hours a day for 144 days. Traditional schools meet for 6 hours a day for 180 days.Many schools on a four-day schedule ofifer special programs, trips or sports meets on the fifth day. According to the government, this allows students to have even more time in class than on the traditional schedule. Students do not have to miss school to go to the events. They can also go to doctors or deal with other important things on the fifth day.The main reason for shortening the school week is that many small schools can save money by not providing meals or transportation for students on the fifth day. And they say research shows that students are not affected by the shorter week.31. What have the schools in 12 American states tried recently?A. A 3-day week schedule. B. A 4-day week schedule.C.
