复习扫荡狂练：完形填空—说明文
.Before 1918, when Mississippi became the last US state to req uire that school-
age children attend public or private schools, many children wer e taught by their parents at home or by teachers informally 1 by the community. Quite often in rural areas, kids of all 2 were taught in the same one-room schoolhouse.
Decades later in the 1980s, home-
schooling made a comeback when religiously conservative pare nts convinced states to 3
and give full credit for the teaching of children at home. The ho me-schooling 4
has since broadened to include parents of all faiths—
or no faith at all. Thus, an 5 1. 5 million American children—about 3 percent of the school-age population—
won’t be going anywhere as schools open for the 6 term.
7 , one or both of their parents will gather books and other ma terials, 8
lesson plans, and teach their children everything from algebra t o zoology right in their living rooms.
Home-schooling’s big selling point for many parents is the 9 that children get their ethical 10
from the people with whom they spend the most time.
In home-schooling households, it’s not 11
to find several children, aged 4 to 16, being taught together. 1 2 kids help younger ones, as they 13 did in those one-room schoolhouses. Many home-
taught students are good at several 14 and have no trouble 15 to college, often with academic scholarships in hand.
But critics point to home teachers? lack of 16
and credentials. “No one’s supervising them, ”they say. And the y 17 that pulling kids out of school may deprive them 18 social skills.
Home-
schooling parents dispute the notion that their children are 19 isolated and bookish. “They are, ”the parents say, “20
hard workers who go to scout and church meetings, play sports , and shop at malls right alongside their friends who go to schoo l. ”

organizations to look for useful information in small failures and failures they
