    According to the second paragraph, land-grant College _____.

    ［A］ belonged to the land-owning class

    ［B］ enlarged the scope of education

    ［C］ was provided only to the poor

    ［D］ benefited all but the upper class


    正确答案：B

     本题考查了事实细节。解此类题的关键是根据题干定位到原文。Land-grant College一词出现在第二段第二句话：国家赠予土地的学校的建立为那些来自非盎格鲁·萨克逊血统、工人阶级和中下层背景的贫穷但有抱负的男孩们敞开了享受高等教育的大门。由此可知，［B］项为正确答案。作者提到为穷人提供了更多的机会，却并没有将上层人士排除在外，也未曾说明只有穷人才能从中获益。因此［C］项和［D］项错误。［A］项中土地所有者阶级是由land-grant colleges一词字面意思得来，文中没有依据。

    C

    because of the location of the office

    D

    became he couldn’t find any other job


    正确答案： C
    解析：
    句意：Horace很高兴的接受第一份工作的原因是这正是他想要的工作。文章第九段最后一句，当Horace被问及为什么想做这份工作时，他回答“I want to learn all I can about newspapers”，说明这份工作正是他想要的，故选A。文章第十一段说明这份工作开始仅提供食宿，排除B。第十二段中提到Horace的家要搬到Pennsylvania，而这份工作是在Vermont（第九段第一句），有600英里之远，排除C。D项在文中没有提到。

    C

    does not mean that the children will become rich.

    D

    may not be a guarantee for a poor family to become better off.


    正确答案： B
    解析：
    细节理解题。由题干信息定位到第三段，A、D选项属于无中生有，该段第一句“Employment no longer provides an escape from poverty.”可知，就业不再能使人摆脱贫困，推测就业在以前可能可以使人摆脱贫，故B选项错误；该段第三句“More than seven million poor children have at least one working parent.”可知，700多万贫穷孩子的父母至少有一方有工作，父母有工作，但是孩子依然贫穷，所以父母有工作并不意味着孩子们会变得富有，故答案为C项。

    正确答案： A

    D
