（2025·厦门高二下学期质检）For generations， many colleges and universities in the United States have offered classes in a lot of different subjects.But a new study suggests the current generation of college students may not value liberal arts study programs as much as earlier generations.It found many current students want programs that directly connect to specific career paths.
In November 2019， the social research company Gallup and the Strada Education Network reported on an opinion study of 340，000 Americans.Researchers asked the individuals about their educational experiences after high school.
Out of those who completed a vocational （职业的） program， meaning training for a specific job or technical skill， 57 percent strongly agreed it was worth the cost.However， only 40 percent of people who completed four-year study programs at a traditional college or university said the same.
Dave Clayton is a senior vice president with Strada.He said it shows that Americans want higher education to relate to jobs.“In the past， many Americans thought of higher education as a means， or method， of self-improvement，” Clayton says.
But this questioning of the value of a liberal arts education is nothing new， notes Timothy Burke.He is a co-director of the Aydelotte Foundation at Swarthmore College.However， even the biggest companies today are not just looking for students with one area of specialization.
In 2010， Steve Jobs， creator of Apple， stated that technology alone is not enough.“It’s technology married with liberal arts ...that yields the results that make our hearts sing，” he said.Similarly， another technology company， Google， listed strong communication and leadership abilities well above technical skills for its most successful managers.
Burke suggests the way forward is not necessarily to get liberal arts educators to change what they are teaching.Instead， they need to change how they teach by making connections between the material they present in classes and issues in the real world.That will help students better understand how they can put what they are learning to use.
4.What did the study by Gallup and the Strada Education Network find？（ ）
A.People value liberal arts. B.People treasure job skills.
C.People ignore vocational training. D.People focus on book knowledge.
5.What did many Americans think of higher education in the past？（ ）
A.It should focus on a special area. B.It should relate to future careers.
C.It stresses all-round development. D.It stresses science and engineering.
6.What’s the author’s purpose of giving the examples of Steve Jobs and Google？（ ）
A.To prove the value of liberal arts. B.To show what makes companies great.
C.To show what are important to leaders. D.To prove the importance of technology.
7.What should liberal arts educators do according to Burke？（ ）
A.Change the teaching contents.
B.Combine teaching with practice.
C.Improve their teaching methods.
D.Focus on students’ future job skills.

A half dozen women， in their 30s， 40s and 50s， gather in a classroom in Phoenix for a few hours on a weekday morning.They are all caregivers of young children and participants in an Arizona state-funded initiative called Kith and Kin.The program aims to give family， friend and neighbor caregivers the kind of training that licensed （领有许可证的） caregivers are required to have.
A study in the south Phoenix area found that 60% of children from birth to 5 years old were being cared for outside of licensed child care settings.That study led the nonprofit organization Candelen to launch Kith and Kin in 1999.“There was the high need to provide both training and support in communities where families with young children live，” says program director Angela Tapia.
Now， 25 years later， programs like Kith and Kin are getting renewed attention on account of the fragile （脆弱的） state of the child care industry.There’s increased urgency from policymakers and businesses to ensure communities have access to affordable， high-quality child care， paving the way for parents， especially women， to work.
The sessions are paid for by Arizona’s government.While most federal （联邦制的） and state funding for child care industry in the US goes to licensed settings， Arizona is one of a number of states that have long recognized the importance of informal caregiving arrangements that are allowing millions of parents to go to work.
Such arrangements are especially common in immigrant communities， where many parents hold jobs with nontraditional hours and prefer caregivers who share their language and culture.
Candelen estimates it trains about 1，000 caregivers a year.Melinda Gulick， CEO of Arizona’s early childhood agency First Things First， says the funding is recognition that all children， regardless of where they spend their first years， deserve a high quality early childhood experience.“For many parents， the best place for children to be is with their aunts or their grandmothers or their neighbors，” she says.
8.What can be learned about the women from paragraph 1？（ ）
A.They send children to a program.
B.They receive training in child care.
C.They are founders of Kith and Kin.
D.They are occupied in caring about their students.
9.What is the purpose of paragraph 2？（ ）
A.To describe the necessities of family care.
B.To show the educational challenges in Phoenix.
C.To present the requirements for licensed caregivers.
D.To offer some background on establishing Kith and Kin.
10.What is Melinda Gulick’s attitude towards Kith and Kin？（ ）
A.Approving. B.Critical.
C.Uncertain. D.Puzzled.
11.What is the text mainly about？（ ）
A.Supporting informal child care in Arizona.
B.Federal initiatives in early childhood education.
C.Challenges faced by working women in Phoenix.
D.The decrease of licensed child care facilities in Phoenix.

（2025·厦门高二下学期质检）For generations， many colleges and
universities in the United States have offered classes in a lot of different
subjects.But a new study suggests the current generation of college
students may not value liberal arts study programs as much as earlier
generations.It found many current students want programs that directly
connect to specific career paths.
In November 2019， the social research company Gallup and the
Strada Education Network reported on an opinion study of 340，000
Americans.Researchers asked the individuals about their educational
experiences after high school.
Out of those who completed a vocational （职业的） program，
meaning training for a specific job or technical skill， 57 percent strongly
agreed it was worth the cost.However， only 40 percent of people who
completed four-year study programs at a traditional college or university
said the same.
Dave Clayton is a senior vice president with Strada.He said it shows
that Americans want higher education to relate to jobs.“In the past，
many Americans thought of higher education as a means， or method， of
self-improvement，” Clayton says.
But this questioning of the value of a liberal arts education is nothing
new， notes Timothy Burke.He is a co-director of the Aydelotte
Foundation at Swarthmore College.However， even the biggest
companies today are not just looking for students with one area of
specialization.
In 2010， Steve Jobs， creator of Apple， stated that technology
alone is not enough.“It’s technology married with liberal arts ...that
yields the results that make our hearts sing，” he said.Similarly，
another technology company， Google， listed strong communication and
leadership abilities well above technical skills for its most successful
managers.
Burke suggests the way forward is not necessarily to get liberal arts
educators to change what they are teaching.Instead， they need to change
how they teach by making connections between the material they present
in classes and issues in the real world.That will help students better
understand how they can put what they are learning to use.

A half dozen women， in their 30s， 40s and 50s， gather in a
classroom in Phoenix for a few hours on a weekday morning.They are all
caregivers of young children and participants in an Arizona state-funded
initiative called Kith and Kin.The program aims to give family， friend
and neighbor caregivers the kind of training that licensed （领有许可证
的） caregivers are required to have.
A study in the south Phoenix area found that 60% of children from
birth to 5 years old were being cared for outside of licensed child care
settings.That study led the nonprofit organization Candelen to launch Kith
and Kin in 1999.“There was the high need to provide both training and
support in communities where families with young children live，” says
program director Angela Tapia.
Now， 25 years later， programs like Kith and Kin are getting
renewed attention on account of the fragile （脆弱的） state of the child
care industry.There’s increased urgency from policymakers and
businesses to ensure communities have access to affordable， high-quality
child care， paving the way for parents， especially women， to work.
The sessions are paid for by Arizona’s government.While most
federal （联邦制的） and state funding for child care industry in the US
goes to licensed settings， Arizona is one of a number of states that have
long recognized the importance of informal caregiving arrangements that
are allowing millions of parents to go to work.
Such arrangements are especially common in immigrant
communities， where many parents hold jobs with nontraditional hours
and prefer caregivers who share their language and culture.
Candelen estimates it trains about 1，000 caregivers a year.Melinda
Gulick， CEO of Arizona’s early childhood agency First Things First，
says the funding is recognition that all children， regardless of where they
spend their first years， deserve a high quality early childhood
experience.“For many parents， the best place for children to be is with
their aunts or their grandmothers or their neighbors，” she says.

15. B 本段主要讲要不断学习。B项对下文有总括作用，适合为本段
的标题。
16. G 上文讲要学会反思，G项中的mistakes与上下文对应，有承上
启下作用。
