Children for whom school has no point Many children do not go to school either because their parents want them at home as carers for siblings,or simply because their parents cannot be bothered to send them．Thousands more are not registered at any school at all,because of their families'unstable lives. Underlying this dreadful situation there are two central truths．First of all,the problem of children not going to school often has more to do with their parents than with the children themselves．Secondly,once children go to school,we need to make sure that the experience is a positive one so that they want to keep on going. In Britain,the Ministry of Education has introduced a complex package of sticks and carrots to persuade Schools to bring truants'and excluded children back into the classroom．It is paying grants so that a thousand schools can set up special units to help these children．Schools receive the grant if they bring a target number of children back to school;if they do not meet the target,the grant is withdrawn. Parents are the subject of this campaign,too:the Home Office has introduced fines for parents who fail to send their children to school,and has given the police power to pick up truants on the streets. Truant=a child who does not go to school when he or she should. According to the text,there are thousands of children who__.

C、

D、

【正确答案】：C
【题目解析】：首先，从文本中可以找到与试题直接相关的描述：“Thousands more are not registered at any school at all, because of their families' unstable lives.” 这句话明确指出了有成千上万的孩子由于家庭不稳定的生活而没有在任何学校注册。 接下来，分析各个选项： A. “run away from school” 表示从学校逃跑，文本中没有提及。 B. “live in stable families” 表示生活在稳定的家庭中，与文本描述的“unstable lives”相矛盾。 C. “are not registered at any school” 与文本中的描述一致。 D. “stay at home doing the housework” 表示留在家做家务，文本中只提到了有些孩子留在家照顾兄弟姐妹，并未提及做家务。 综上所述，根据文本描述和选项分析，可以确定答案为C：“are not registered at any school”。
