Working parents and teachers see after-school programs no longer as optional, but as an essential support for children as they grow and develop, according to a new national study of after-school programs, released by Reader's Digest Funds. Nearly 80 percent of parents surveyed in the study said that after-school programs helped their children cope with behavioral problems and helped them obtain new skills to meet increased demands in school.
At a time when states and the federal government are pressing harder than ever for improved academic achievement by all children, a three-year study shows that after-school programs, particularly in low-income communities, are an effective and affordable way not only to keep children safe and out of trouble, but also to keep them engaged in school. The report concludes that children in school-based after-school programs benefit both academically and socially in programs that offer a diverse set of activities. The report findings are significantly giving the emerging debate over whether or not basic skills can be effectively taught only in programs that exclusively focus on academics or whether such skills can be taught in a variety of program activities such as art, sports, book and chess clubs.
Extended Service Schools (ESS) are school-based programs that provide a variety of academic and enrichment activities for young people during non-school hours, from homework help to career awareness. The facilities typically operate before and after school, on weekends and over the summer months. Well-designed programs support families, too. Parents with children in ESS programs said that their children's attitudes and behaviors in school changed and it kept their children out of trouble. As a result, their children's attendance improved. Parents were also able to manage their work schedules better, attend classes and get better jobs.
The ESS study involved four .national models of after-school programs in 17 communities across the country. The models differed in organizational structure and management, but all sought to promote positive youth development during out-of-school hours. Each ESS site was located in school and operated by a community-based organization. All the programs focused on a mix of academics, cultural and recreation activities.
Practical lessons from the report, such as cost and program design, are highly relevant to local program managers providing after-school services and to state agencies that are administering 2lst Century Community Learning Centers for the first time. The Reader's Digest Funds supported nearly 60 such ESS programs in communities across the country to help transform. underused public schools into neighborhood centers.

听力原文：W: Sit down please, Mr. Johnson.
M: Nice to meet you, ma'am.
W: I have read your letter here. You seem to have done very well in school. Can you tell me something about your schoolwork？
M: As you can see, my strongest subjects were art subjects. My best subject was history, and my second best was geography. However, my favorite subject was math, and the results 1 got in the math paper were quite reasonable.
W: That' s hue. Now, can you tell me why you think these subjects will help you in this job？
M: Well, ma' am, I understand that you manufacture computers, prepare software, and advise diets on how to use them. Is that right？
W: What's right.
M: And I've been told that working with computers needs a logical mind rather than great skills in mathematics. That' s especially true, I believe, when it comes to writing programs. So I think my results show that I have some ability in logic and in mathematics as well.
W: So, you would like to write material for computers, would you？
M: Yes, ma'am. That's what interests me most about computers, writing programs. But I think the computer industry itself is still expanding enormously. I' m sure that career prospects in the industry would be very good.
W: I see. Well, thank you. I've enjoyed our talk. We'll be writing to you.
M: Thank you, ma' am. Goodbye.
