(CNN News)-In his work for a humanitarian(人道主义)agency in Afghanistan, Lex Kassenberg asks an important question when he visits schoolchildren: What will you do when you grow up?“I want to be president,”is an answer Kassenberg often hears from girls.

   But for all the admiration Kassenberg has for a youngster's ambition, the 53-year-old CARE aid worker knows that in Afghanistan, the idea of a female national leader remains unlikely to be realized in the immediate future. Only recently, women had suffered a lot under the rule of the militant(激进的)Taliban.

  The importance of education, especially for girls, is not ignored by the Afghan people or humanitarian agencies trying to improve their living conditions. That's why the World Bank partnered with CARE to investigate how education can succeed when there are increasing violent attacks on Afghan schools.

  “Knowledge on Fire”, CARE's education report made known to the public Monday, found that community-based schools are the most sound and workable in Afghanistan.“Education-related violence is an alarming trend in Afghanistan,”said Helene Gayle, president of CARE. “But this study suggests that an approach of building support for education at the local level can reduce the risks of attacks.”

  Because government school are often associated with a Kabul administration viewed by the Taliban as a pupper(傀儡政府)of the United States, they are likely to be attacked, Kassenberg said. And schools built with reconstruction dollars are associated with the military. Between January 2006 and December 2008, 1,053 education-related attacks or threats were reported in Afghanistan, according to CARE. The number of incidents was almost three times as much as that in 2005.

The World Bank cooperated with CARE in order to       .

A. know how to educate Afghan boys and girls successfully during the war.

  B. know how to give money to Afghan boys and girls.

C. know the condition of education in Afghan schools.

D. know if the education of Afghan boys and girls is successful

The passage implied that         .

  A. Afghan people suffered a lot               B. Afghan boys suffered little                           

  C. Afghan girls didn't suffer at all            D. Afghan girls suffered more than boys

A. The Taliban thought schools are connected with the military.

  B. The Taliban thought the Kabul administration would cooperate with it.

C. The Taliban thought schools were built by the American government.

D. The Taliban thought schools were built with reconstruction dollars.

  A. 670               B. 1, 053               C. over 1,700        D. about 350
