LaMar Baylor, an American performer in the Broadway musical, spends most of his time in New York City．But since 2020, he has also spent weeks in Kigali, the capital of
Rwanda．There, he teaches dance to boys who live on the street．His teaching is part of an effort by the Rebecca Davis Dance Company．The project helps young people learn more about dance and learn how to behave in a classroom environment．
Rebecca Davis and LaMar Baylor teach ballet to street children in Kigali, Rwanda．The children have lost all of their families．Some have been in prison; others have sold their bodies for sex．Dance classes provide the children with structured learning and self-expression that they've never had before． Rebecca Davis is the founder and director of the dance company．She got the idea for the project after visiting Rwanda in 2020．There she met a large number of street children who were dancing, and she thought that dance could be used to get them off the street and into a safe place．She believes that learning to dance is a step toward education．She says children can take classes in information and technology after they have learned to attend classes and follow directions．
Boys who have done best in the classes win scholarships and are sent to the Sunrise Boarding School．About 30 boys have won this kind of financial aid． As for LaMar
Baylor, he knows from his own experience how dance can lead to a better life．He is from Camden, New Jersey．Camden has sometimes been called America's poorest and most dangerous city．He now thanks dancing for saving his life．
The Rwanda program is the largest one set up by the Rebecca Davis Dance Company, and Ms．Davis has also set up dance programs in Bosnia-Herzegovina and Guinea．About 2,000 children in the three countries have taken part in the project since it was begun in 2020．
21．The dance project aims to____． A．give the street children parental care
B．provide scholarship for the street children C．help the street children receive some education D．keep the street children in good health22．What do we learn about the street children from the passage?

23．What LaMar Baylor and the street children in the project have in common is that _． A．they all benefit from dancing

driveway, watching our neighbor hurry off to kindergarten．My wife and I wanted to give James the best education, but that meant we'd have to change our jobs and spend less time with our kid．I asked myself, \research on child development, I think it might not．Where our kids go to school might matter less than most American parents think．
Social scientists have long tried to determine why some children grow up to be
successful．In a 2020 study, Greg Duncan, a professor of education at the University of
California, measured the influence that the people in a child's life have on how well the child does in school．Duncan and his team found almost no relationship between how students did on the test and whom they sat beside in class, whom they hung out with after school and who lived in their block．The only For a long time, scholars thought that a family's
income heavily affected how well kids did in life．But that might not be the case．When Susan Mayer at the University of Chicago looked at the relationship between family income and lifetime achievement, she ran a series of experiments to measure it, finding such
outcomes weren't caused by income．She argued that the things that make a difference are relatively inexpensive: the number of books a kid has or how often his family goes to museums．
Lareau, another scholar began one of the most in-depth observations of American
parenting．He concluded that success is much more related to the amount of time parents spend with their children．He said \
children's futures．Butbest' of everything．\
So at last, we decided to leave things as it were．More time with our kid is the best we can provide．
