25.10It isgenerally acknowledgedthat youngpeople frompoorer socio-economicbackgrounds tendto doless wellintheeducation system.In anattempt tohelpthe children ofpoorfamilies,a nationwideprogram calledHeadstart”was startedintheUS in

1965.A lotof moneywaspoured intoit.It tookchildren intopre-school institutionsattheage ofthree andwas supposedtohelp themsucceed inschool.But the results havebeen disappointing,because theprogram begantoolate.Many childrenwho enteredit atthree werealready behindtheir peersin language andintelligence andthe parentswerenotinvolved inthe process.At theend ofeach day,“Headstart”children returnedtothesame disadvantagedhome environment.To improvetheresults,another programwas startedin Missourithat concentratedon parentsasthe childs firstteachers.This programwas basedon researchshowing thatworking withthefamily isthemosteffective wayof helpingchildren getthe bestpossible startin life.The four-yearstudy included380families whowere aboutto havetheir firstchild andrepresented differentsocial-economic status,ageand family structure.The programinvolved trainededucators visitingandworking withthe parentor parentsandthechild.The programalso gavethe parentssomeguidance,and usefulskills onchild development.At three,thechildreninvolved inthe uMissourf,program wereevaluated withthe childrenselectedfromthesame socio-economic backgroundandfamilysituations.The resultswere obvious.The childrenintheprogram weremore advancedin languagedevelopment,problem solvingandother intellectualskills thantheir peers.They performedequally wellregardless ofsocio-economicbackgrounds orfamily structure.The onefactor thatwas foundto affectthechilds developmentwasthe poorquality ofparent-child interaction.That interactionwas notnecessarily badin poorerfamilies.The“Missouri”program comparesquite distinctlywiththe“Headstart”program.Without asimilarfocus onparent educationand onthe vitalimportance ofthefirstthreeyears,some evidenceindicatesthatitwillnotbe enoughtoovercomeeducational unfairness.

1、What causedthe failureofthe“Headstart”programA・The largenumberofpoor families.B.The disapprovalfrom children.。
