问题     It is a disgrace that Ms. Chavez continuously spreads misinformation about bilingual education. Too many people accept the idea that children should【S1】their home language and learn only in English. Such policies have put language-minority children at a【S2】and caused them a lot of harm.

Being proficient in a language includes more than simply being able to【S5】the language; it also means being able to read, write, and think【S6】in it.
    The length of time it takes to become proficient in a second language depends on many factors including the【S7】for well-developed concepts and language skills in the first language. This【S8】often takes more than three years.
    Children in general are not cognitively【S9】to think abstractly, or read and write proficiently in the language they grow up in until after six or seven years. Why does Ms. Chavez want less for language-minority children?
    It is unfortunate and【S10】that because of false rumors, such as those spread by Ms. Chavez, that language-minority children get pushed into all English classes too early.

选项
