问题    Much of a parent’s job is to provide the gifts of caring, love, and emotional support to children. But one gift is often beyond their reach: the resources to meet the financial demands of college tuition.
   For more than 54 years, the United Negro College Fund has fulfilled the dreams of deserving students by closing the gap between the cost of college and what their parents can afford. More than 300,000 students have graduated from United Negro College Fund member colleges since 1944, and 54,000 more are currently enrolled.
   The oldest and most successful minority higher education support organization, the United Negro College Fund is a combination of 39 private, historically black member colleges and universities. Since its founding, it has raised more than 21.3 billion to keep the dream alive for needy families across the country.
   What is it that makes the United Negro College Fund so important to America’s families? As well as raising funds and giving technical support to member colleges and universities, it creates hope and opportunity by providing financial assistance to deserving students. Consider the contributions of just a few of the distinguished graduates who have realized the benefits: civil fights activist Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. , opera diva (歌剧女主角) Leontyne Price, Olympic track star Edwin Moses; and filmmaker Spike Lee.
选项 A、afford their children’s college tuition
B、give them gifts on their birthdays
C、look after their children
D、offer their children emotional support
答案A
解析 细节题。从文章第一段可知“大多数黑人家庭感到窘迫的是无力支付子女上大学的费用”。因此，选项A为正确答案。而选项D指“提供感情支持”，选项C指“照顾孩子”，选项B指“过生日时给他们生日礼物”，这三项均不符合题意。
