The studies clearly show that the dropout rate isnt dropping. And, in particular, the dropout rate isnt dropping for poor and minority students.Amazingly, though so many regret the rising dropout rate, our schools continue to lack formal plans-or any plans-to teach students motivation(动机). Most schools have no game plan to ensure that students understand that schooling will be completely necessary. Schools expect youth and children to act as though schooling is important, but they never teach them to believe that.Years ago, families ensured that thechildrenrecognized the value of schooling. But in many modern families, the children may fail to recognize the importance of school life just because these families may actually tell their children that school is not important. Since many families are not motivating their children to be interested students, youth professionals, like teachers may need to provide this training. Otherwise, it is likely the dropout rate will continue not to drop, but only worsen.Here are some strategies to convince even the most apathetic (无动于衷的) students that they must stay in school.Ask students if they will ever need to work: The world has changed. 100 years ago, factory work was the booming job, and it required no education. Today, factories are increasingly automated. Most computer-related jobs require education and at least a high school diploma.Ask students which century they will be prepared for: In 1900, the most common jobs were farm laborer and domestic servanteducation not needed. Now, the most common jobs are office and sales staffeducation and diploma usually needed. An amazing 6 out of 10 people today work in a store or office.Ask students to devise a way that the employee could be replaced. For example, the coming trend in fast food is to use computers rather than people to run the restaurant. A prototype is apparently already being tested. The students should discover that most jobs that lack education and diploma requirements may be ripe for automation.11. What does the underlined part mean in Paragraph1? A. Few students can afford to go to school in large cities. B. A large number of the 9th graders can graduate now. C. There are still quite a few 9th graders leaving school early. D. Most schools in large cities have fewer and fewer students.12. Without the help of youth professionals,_. A. more and more families will gradually recognize the value of school. B. it is likely that the dropout rate in schools wont continue to drop. C. some parents will be more convinced of their childrens future. D. the schools will make proper plans to solve the problems with dropout.13. The author takes factory work for example mainly to _. A. tell us that many jobs requires certain education in the past B. show that there are more factory work and employment in modern society C. show that employment in the computer field grows at a high rate D. emphasize that modern jobs require education and schools are necessary 14. It can be inferred that_. A. both schools and families should answer for the high dropout rate B. many new jobs dont need childrens high school diploma C. working in a store doesnt require a high school diploma D. most schools are ready to help students recognize the importance of study15. If students play the “Replace Me” game, the result would be “_”A. They will know that they can always do without a diploma B. More of them will drop out early to go to workC. They will discover that lack of education is a disadvantage in choosing jobsD. They will become better at using computers to hunt for a job参考答案 1115 、CBDAC阅读理解。阅读下列短文, 从给的四个选项 (A、B、C和D) 中, 选出最佳选项。Book 1 : Brack Obama Grades: 3-5Our Price: $ 8.95His mother came from Kansas.
