问题     Driving a large truck over mountain roads is not the usual way that a schoolteacher begins her day—especially if she is a preschool teacher. But Mrs. Beth Miller does this five days every week. Her unusual schoolhouse-on-wheels is really a large truck. The back of the truck has been made into a classroom in order to carry the advantages of modem education to remote area of the state of West Virginia. In many rural areas of this state it is impossible for small children to go to regular schools because of the isolation caused by the many hills and valleys of Appalachia.
    The purpose of the schoolhouse-on-wheels project is to develop basic skills and social behavior in children three to five years of age. This is accomplished through games, exercises, toys and simple handicrafts.  The schoolhouse-on-wheels also teaches the young children to recognize 300 to 400 words on the printed page. This is a great advantage in helping the pupils to learn to read when they begin regular school. In his three-year history the project has helped about 350 children in an area composed of five countries, an area of 20, 000 square kilometers.
    The schoolhouse-on-wheels is part of the Appalachia Educational Laboratory, a research paid by the federal government. Besides the mobile classroom, other pans of the program include lessons by television and visits to the home of the students. The technique is very effective, and one teacher can do the work of seven in a traditional educational system. As a result the program costs about 50% less than the regular kindergarten.
选项 A、who are already in the first grade

C、who have finished elementary school
D、who are going to finish elementary school
答案B
