Ⅲ.阅读理解

A

Most American students go to traditional public schools.There are about 88,000 public schools all over the US.Some students attend charter schools.

Charter schools are self­governing.Certain companies operate(经营)some charter schools.They are similar in some ways to traditional public schools.They receive tax money just as other public schools do.Charter schools must prove to local or state governments that their students are learning.These governments provide the schools with the agreement called a charter that permits(允许)them to operate.

Charter schools are different because they do not have to obey most laws that govern traditional public schools.Each school can choose its own goals and decide what to teach and how to teach in its own way.Class size is usually smaller than that in traditional public schools.

The government strongly supports charter schools as a way to reorganize public schools，which are failing to educate students.But some education unions are against charter schools.One teachers' union has just released the results of the first national study，which compared the progress of students in both traditional public schools and charter schools.

The results of the study show that charter school students performed worse on maths and reading tests than the students in traditional public schools.

Some experts say the study is not fair because students in charter schools have more problems than students in traditional public schools.Other education experts say the study results would make charter school officials realize that they should help their students make greater progress.

1．If a company wants to operate a charter school，it must ________.

A．try new methods of teaching

B．prove its management ability

C．obey the local and state laws

D．get the government's permission

2．What's the government's attitude to charter schools?

C．Satisfied. D．Unclear.
