D) keep people properly informed of the crisis這篇短文講述的是學校資金短缺事件。全文共十個小段，第一段從丹佛某社區(qū)發(fā)起運動說起，交代了事件基本信息：1380萬美元的預算短缺，而后引用某位學生父母對學校表示物質支持的原話(we can help ease their financial burden, we will)。這個段落有這樣一個特點，即事件本身只是在句中附帶提到，敘述的重點在于社區(qū)對與此事相關的學校、教師的支持。這也暗示了后文的敘述方向不會是對資金短缺事件的原委的敘述，而是各方對此事的反應。從全文來看，包括社區(qū)、教師、官方、企業(yè)以及學生的反應。
接下來的第二段敘述了教師們對社區(qū)支持的反應(grateful)，而后用教師們的想法傳達出資金短缺事件的解決難度(impossible for then to solve this problem，社區(qū)支持不可能解決問題)。
下一段進一步透露出事件的其他信息：發(fā)現(xiàn)時間(last month)，并交代了州官員的反應：驚詫(Nobody would have imagined something happening like this at this level)。下三小段繼續(xù)敘述官方的進一步行動：為教師工資提供貸款(9.8 million loan that enabled the payroll)，從學生活動資金帳戶中提出170萬美元(officials also took $1.7 million)，調查該地區(qū)財務(begun investigating the district’s finances)。
