问题     For more than six million American children, coming home after school means coming home to an empty house. They spend part of each day alone.  They are called "latchkey children".   They’re children who look after themselves while their parents work.  And their bad conditions have become a social problem.
    Lyne Brown was once the headmaster of an elementary school.  She said, "A lot of kids had chains around their necks with keys attached.! was constantly telling them to put them inside shirts.  There were so many keys, it never came to my mind what they meant. ",slowly, she learned they were house keys.
    Lyne learned of the impact working couples and single parents were having on their children.  She found that Fear is the biggest problem faced by children at home alone. Many had nightmares and were worried about their own safety.
    The most common way latchkey children deal with their fears is by hiding. It might be in a shower stall, under a bed, in a closet.  The second is TV.  They’ll often play it at high volume.  It’s hard to get statistics (情况，材料) on latchkey children. Most parents are slow to admit they leave their children alone.  
We may draw a conclusion that______.
选项 A、latchkey children enjoy having such a large amount of time alone
B、latchkey children try to hide their feeling
C、latchkey children often watch TV with their parents
D、it’s difficult to find out how many latchkey children there are
答案D
解析 文章最后一段倒数第2句It’s hard to get statistics on latchkey children，the Browns learned可推知由于父母不愿意透露孩子在家的情况，因此很难统计出钥匙儿童的实际数量。
