President Obama,s plan last week to overhaul(改善)former president George W.Bush’s No Child left Behind program is an improvement on a good thin9.But it doesn’t go far enough.
Obama outlined a goal that by 2020,all grade school and high school students ale on a path toward college and career readiness.
However, what we need is a practical plan that not only requires all high school graduates to take at least two years of college but also makes it financially possible for them to do so. We’ve provided a free public education through the l2th grade.If we’re going to keep up—or catch up—with some other countries(1ike China)in preparing young people for careers,a 12-year education program no longer is enough.
About 3 million students across the USA will graduate from high school this spring. But only 2 million will go on to college, according to a survey by the National Center for Education Statistics(NCFES).For the more than l million who won’t go on,money is a major factor.If tuition(学费)were free,about half of them could make up other COSTS from family or part—time jobs.
Critics(批评家)of free college tuition will say we can’t afford it because of the federal deficit(联邦赤字)and other rising costs.Let’s see some government spending in detail:
In the last nearly 10 years.the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have cost us $1 trillion(that’s $1,000 billion,or an average of$100 billion a year).Federal money spent on public elementary and secondary education in the last year for which figures are available was$47 billion.If we end costly and unnecessary wars and nation—building efforts abroad,the federal government could provide more money on public education,for which state and local governments now carry most of the burden(负担).
According to President Obama’s plan,in 10 years, .
A.there will be no expensive and unnecessary Wars
B.all grade and high school students can go to college
C.the U.S.will catch up with China in career preparation
D.students Call enjoy a l2-year public free education
If tuition were not charged.
A.about 2.5 million students could afford college education
B.about 2 million students could be provided chances of college education
C.over l million students still could not afford college education
D.about 3 million students could graduate from high school
The author may agree that President Obama’s plan
A.has little to do with Gorge W.Bush’s program
B. does not agree with the survey by NCFES
C.does not contain practical measures to achieve its goal
D.will lighten the burden of state and local governments
It can be inferred from the passage that
A.the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are expensive but necessary
B.the federal Can not provide more money on education
C,critics of free college tuition think little of the plan
D.President Obama’s plan might be hard to carry out

(四)
About ten years ago, a young and very successful businessman named Josh was traveling down a Chicago neighborhood street. He was going a bit too fast in his shiny, black, 12 cylinder Jaguar XKE, which was only two months old.
He was watching for kids rushing out from between parked cars and slowed down when he thought he saw something. As his car passed, no child came out, but a brick sailed out and — WHUMP! — it hit the Jag’s shiny black side door! SCREECH...!!!! Immediately Josh stopped the car, jumped out, seized the kid and pushed him up against a parked car. He shouted at the kid, "What was that all about and who are you? Just what the heck are you doing?!" Building up a head of steam, he went on. " That’s my new Jag, that brick you threw is gonna cost you a lot of money. Why did you throw it?"
"Please, mister, please....I’m sorry! I didn’t know what else to do!" begged the youngster. "I threw the brick because no one else would stop!" tears were streaming down the boy’s face as he pointed around the parked car. "It’s my brother, mister," he said. "He rolled of the curb (路沿) and fell out of his wheelchair and I can’t lift him up. "Sobbing, the boy asked the businessman," Would you please help me get him back into his wheelchair? He’s hurt and he’s too heavy for me.
Moved beyond words, the young businessman tried hard to swallow the rapidly swelling lump in his throat. Straining, he lifted the young man back into the wheelchair and took out his handkerchief and wiped the scrapers and cuts, checking to see that everything was going to be OK. He then watched the younger brother push him down the sidewalk toward their home.
It was a long walk back to the black, shining 12 cylinder Jaguar XKE — a long and slow walk. Josh never did fix the side door of his Jaguar. He kept the dent (凹痕) to remind him not to go through life so fast that someone has to throw a brick at him to get his attention. Feel for the bricks of life coming at you. w.w.w.k.s.5.u.c.o.m
