A.The universities foster to-be elites for industry.
B.The tuition fees are banned in the universities.
C.The higher education is a state welfare.
D.The universities are more attractive than low taxes or cheap labour.

参考答案

A

答案解析

根据题干中的Line.4,Para.3定位到原文第三段最后一句。
语义理解题。本题考查对科尔所说的话的理解。定位句指出,就像科尔先生说的那样,大学
是“悬在工业前的诱饵,具有比低税收或廉价劳动力更大的吸引力”。根据“就像科尔先生说的那样”可以看出。这句话是对前一句的同义表达。前一句中提到,在科尔那个时代,高等教育是全州的公共福利,其目的是培养自己未来的企业家和纳税人。由此可知,A“大学为工业培养未来的精英”符合原文,故为本题答案。B“大学禁止收取学费”是科尔那个时代的大学采取的政策,故排除;C“高等教育是全州的福利”没有体现出大学与工业之间的关系,故排除;D“大学比低税收或廉价劳动力更有吸引力”并不是这句话真正要表达的意思,故排除。
