作者态度题。根据对整篇文章的分析，特别是文章最后一段，我们可以看出，作者对比尔·盖茨和玛琳达及其基金会的评价很高，因此．选项A最贴近题意，为正确答案。
参考译文：
比尔·玛琳达基金会可以算是历史上最具创新意识、最成功的基金会。现在一共有270亿的慈善基金。
几年前，比尔·盖茨和他的妻子玛琳达就开始思索他们如何才能帮助大部分人，然后就开始着手把更多的资金投在慈善事业上。一开始，他们就达成协议说他们的钱不是为了得到世人的认可和褒扬而投资的；更不会区分受助者的种族、肤色和宗教信仰。相反，是为了世界各地那些亟待帮助的人们。事实上在大多数情况下，是那些关乎生存的需要。不久，他们将这些想法变成了现实：开始关注全球健康和教育。1999年，基金会兑现了最大的慈善诺言之一：将7亿5千万资金用于购买儿童疫苗。
此后他们的投入不仅仅是金钱。他们把自己的聪明才智和精力也投资到了慈善事业上。比尔开始大量接触医疗知识。他每年都要翻阅大量医疗资料以便学习如何对付世界上出现的最危险的疾病。在与他的接触中，我曾多次听他谈到这方面的知识，而且每次都为他知识的深度而折服。玛琳达则周游世界各地去了解从西雅图出去的每一分钱是否都用在了实处。
她坚信“好人有好报”。无论是比尔辽是玛琳达，他们都全身心地投入到这种令人难以置信的棘手的工作当中。他们的智慧在那些大型慈善机构中是罕见的。哪里有需要哪里就有他们及时的帮助。
在对人类福利争业所做的页献上，他们是让我最敬佩的人物。

第8题：
Section B
Directions: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice.
The number of parents teaching their offspring at home will increase if the current public school system continues to be viewed as an irrelevant institution that can hinder a child's ability to learn.
The rise of home-schooling reflects broadening dissatisfaction with formal education in the US. Discontent is high for two reasons. First, public schools are turning out a poor product--illiterate and unprepared graduates. For example, American 13-year-olds have been documented as having math skills that rank below their counterparts in 14 other developed countries. One survey noted that just one-third of high school juniors could place the Civil War in the correct half-century. Equally troubling, public schools have become scenes where drugs are sold, teachers are robbed, and homemade bombs are found in lockers.
Compounding the situation, teachers' unions, school officials, and many politicians adamantly(坚决地) oppose the use of public monies(钱) for innovative solutions, such as vouchers and charter schools. Those alternatives, although not a panacea(万能) for all the present problems, are at least promising vehicles that could help poor and middle-income parents to find better schools for their children and break up the monopoly of a "one-size-fits-all" philosophy of education.
In light of the educational quagmire(沼泽) the US finds itself in, many parents, impatient for reform, are taking matters into their own hands. One alternative that is gaining growing public acceptance is the educational option known as home-schooling. Home-schooling is defined simply as the "education of school-aged children at home rather than at a school". Home-schoolers believe that students who receive instruction simultaneously from the home and the community at large will be more culturally sophisticated than those whose bulk of learning experience is confined to a school. Home-schooling families believe they are using their liberties well and wisely. The American can-do spirit is evident in the home-schools and households parents manage simultaneously. Those families, however, could use some further deregulation, be it through home-school tax credits or a loosening of compulsory attendance school laws, to make their task easier.
According to the text, the number of children being schooled at home has increased because ______.
A．children don't want to go to school
B．parents are dissatisfied with pubic schools
C．home-schooled children learn better
D．public schools are too crowded
解析：推断题。由题干关键词the number和being schooled at home定位到第一段，该段说，如果在人们眼中，现行的公共教育体系继续有碍孩子学习能力的发展，在家中教育子女的家长将有增无减。这说明，在家中受教育的孩子数量增多是由于父母对公共学校的不满。
