题目

Each year,millions of children around the world are unable to go to school. To draw attention to this widespread problem,the United Nations(UN)is putting education first. Recently,the UN screened a documentary film called Back to School. The film is the second in a series of documentaries(纪录片)for the project Time for School. These films follow seven children from seven different countries. This 12-year project began in 2006,when the children first started school. "This is something we could do to help the education crisis in the world,"said producer and writer Judy Katz. “Documentary film-makers can get deeply involved in a problem and do something about it.”More than 100 million children will never set foot in a school. Sixty percent of those children are girls. Cheryl Faye,head of the UN Girls Education Initiative,spoke about the many factors that prevent girls from getting an education. One problem is the long distance many children must travel to get to school. Also,girls in many cultures are traditionally expected to marry early and work to help their families. “We need to make a special effort for girls,”Faye said. As part of the UN's Millennium goals,the organization wants every single child to get at least an elementary education by 2018. Students from Lawrence Middle School in New York were deeply moved after they saw the film. The seventh grade class is raising money to help build a library on the outskirts of Nairobi,Kenya(肯尼亚),where Joab-a child in the documentary-lives. The class teacher,Karen Weiner,and the class are known in their school as the “Kenya crew”. All the kids were really happy to support Joab and said they felt great about their fund-raising efforts. Like the seventh graders at Lawrence Middle School,kids can work together to make a difference in places like Nairobi. By raising money for education,kids can help children on the other side of the world have a chance of a better,happier life.【1】What's the purpose of the UN screening the documentary film Back to School?A.To raise funds for global education.B.To raise awareness of the need for global education.C.To encourage all the children to come back to school.D.To show the achievements which have been made in the past few years.【2】Special efforts should be made for girls because ____________A.sixty percent of the children in the world are girlsB.more than 100 million girls will never go to schoolC.most of the girls are tired of going to schoolD.more than one half of the children who never go to school are girls【3】Which of the following could NOT be the factor that prevents girls from getting an education?A.Long distance from school.
