Goal of American Education
Education is an enormous and expensive part of American life.Its size is matched by its variety.
Differences in American schools compared with those found in the majority of other countries lie in the
fact that education here has long been intended for everyone一not just for a privileged elite.Schools are ex-
pected to meet the needs of every child,regardless of ability,and also the needs of society itself. This means
that public schools offer more than academic subjects.It surprises many people when they come here to find
high schools offering such courses as typing,sewing,radio repair,computer programming or driver training,
along with traditional academic subjects such as mathematics,history,and languages.Students choose their
curricula depending on their interests,future goals,and level of ability. The underlying goal of American edu-
cation is to develop every child to the utmost of his or her own possibilities,and to give each one a sense of
civic and community consciousness.
Schools have traditionally played an important role in creating national unity and"Americanizing"the
millions of immigrants who have poured into this country from many different backgrounds and origins.
Schools still play a large role in the community,especially in the small towns.
The approach to teaching may seem unfamiliar to many,not only because it is informal,but also
because there is not much emphasis on learning facts.Instead,Americans try to teach their children to think
for themselves and to develop their own intellectual and creative abilities.Students spend much time,learning
how to use resource materials,libraries,statistics and computers.Americans believe that if children are
taught to reason well and to research well,they will be able to find whatever facts they need throughout the
rest of their lives.Knowing how to solve problems is considered more important than the accumulation of
facts.
This is America's answer to the searching question that thoughtful parents all over the world are asking
themselves in the fast-moving time:"How can one prepare today's child for a tomorrow that one can neither
predict nor understand?"
选项
Which of the following best states the goal of American education?
A:To teach every learner some practical skills.
B:To provide every learner with rich knowledge.
C:To give every student the opportunity to fully develop his/her ability.
D:To train every student to be a responsible citizen.
答案
C
解析
A、B、D三项均只指出了美国教育口标的一个方面。C项说的是:为每个学生提供一个 充分发展他(她)的才能的机会。这是美国总的教育目标。
由文章第二段倒数第二句话“Students choose their curricula depending on their interests, future goals , and level of ability.”可知,学生可以根据自己的兴趣、将来的目标和能力来选择课 程,因此他们所学的课程是不同的。
A、B、D三项都只提到教育的某一个方面。由文章第四段第二句话“Instead, Americans try to teach their children to think for themselves and to develop their own intellectual and creative abilities.”可知,美国教育最强调的是对学生创造能力的培养。
文章中没有提到美国教育满足外国留学生的需求。
由文章第二段最后一句话“The underlying goal of American education is to develop every child to the utmost of his or her own possibilities,and to give each one a sense of civic and community consciousness.”可知,给每个学生提供最充分地发挥自己能力的机会是美国教育最重要的特点。
