(共50分)The first year of school in America, known as kindergarten,usually begins between the ages of five and six.Among rich countries such a late start is very strange.President Obamabelieves it is an economic and social problem;his education secretary goes as far as to say that it is"morally wrong".This statement has some support,as it is clear from research into vocabulary that youngsters from poor families enter kindergarten well behind those from rich families—a disadvantage that usually lasts a lifetime.Children from households on welfareknew 525 words by the age of three,while the children of professionals had mastered 1,116.Pre-school can help close this gap.So in a speech last month,Mr.Obama called for apartnership between the federal government and the states to expand it to every Americanchild. It later became known that"every"meant those who come from families with incomes of up to 200%above the poverty line—equal to an income of$47,000 for a family of four.Some critics say that sending children to school at the age of four does not work.Theevidence suggests otherwise. For example,on March 20thnew results were announced from a study of 9 to 11 year olds in New Jersey.This report found that disadvantaged children who hadattended pre-school had better literacy(读写能力),language,maths and science skills.And two years of pre-kindergarten were better than one.Some studies also follow the effects of early learning over lifetimes,such as its effect on crime rates and other factors that may eventually burden society.Critics have singled out a government scheme called Head Start, created in 1965,which provides poor households with arange of services including school-based early education.操作提示：通过题目后的下拉选项框选择正确答案。
