[单项选择]Margaret Spellings, the secretary of education, announced a pilot reform .to the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB), George Bush’s education law, which was passed in 2002 Up to ten states, she said, would be allowed to target their resources at the most severely struggling schools, rather than at the vast number needing improvement. The change drew a predictable mix of praise and censure. Above all, though, it was a reminder of utter inaction elsewhere,

Contrary to appearances, the law’s main tenets are unlikely to be abandoned completely.
