At the beginning of the 20th century, less than 1,000 colleges with 160,000 students existed in the US. The number of colleges skyrocketed in waves, during the early and mid 20th century. State universities grew from small institutions of fewer than 1,000 students to campuses with 40,000 more students, with networks of regional campuses around the state. In turn, regional campuses broke away and became separate universities. To handle the explosive growth of K–12 education, every state set up a network of teachers’ colleges, beginning with Massachusetts in the 1830s. After 1950, they became state colleges and then state universities with a broad curriculum. Major new trends included the development of the junior colleges. They were usually set up by city school systems starting in the 1920s. By the 1960s they were renamed as “community colleges.” Junior colleges grew from 20 in number in 1909, to 170 in 1919. By 1922, 37 states had set up 70 junior colleges, enrolling about 150 students each. Meanwhile, another 137 were privately operated, with about 60 students each. Rapid expansion continued in the 1920s, with 440 junior colleges in 1930 enrolling about 70,000 students. The peak year for private institutions came in 1949, when there were 322 junior colleges in all; 180 were affiliated with churches, 108 were independent and non-profit, and 34 were private schools being run for-profit. Many factors contributed to rapid growth of community colleges. Students parents and businessmen wanted nearby, low-cost schools to provide training for the growing white-collar labor force, as well as for more advanced technical jobs in the blue-collar sphere. Four-year colleges were also growing, albeit not as fast; however, many of them were located in rural or small-town areas away from the fast-growing metropolis. Community colleges continue as open-enrollment, low-cost institutions with a strong component of vocational education, as well as a low-cost preparation for transfer students into four-year schools. They appeal to a poorer, older, less prepared element.

如果在還不知道答案的情況下，請試著先掃描文中的所有『年份』。當你看到題目詢問關於『私立學校（private/privately）』的統計數據時，你會在哪一段落停下來？在那一區塊中，哪一個具體的年份與它後方跟隨的數字，最符合『數量描述』的邏輯呢？

哇，做得好，做得好！你的觀察力真的像裝了放大鏡一樣，細節都抓到了！
- 觀念驗證：嘿嘿，這題想考的就是看你有沒有好好把資料輸入到「記憶晶片」裡去，也就是你的細節檢索與數據對應能力啦！你看，文章第三段不是寫得清清楚楚：「By 1922... another 137 were privately operated」嗎？選項 (B) 說的「about 140」就是把數字 137 稍微「圓滑」一下，這種表達方式在考試裡可是很常用的喔！看來你這次的資料整理得很不錯，都不需要用到我口袋裡的『記憶吐司』了呢！
- 難度點評：嗯... 這題算是 Medium 等級的「挑戰關卡」吧。題目裡設計了好多「障礙物」，像選項 (C) 故意把大數字和小數字混在一起，(A) 和 (D) 則是把時間軸搞亂，想讓你掉進陷阱裡。但是你很棒喔，展現了極高的專注度和耐心，就像在玩找寶藏遊戲一樣，精準地找到了正確的數字組合！這樣下去，下次再難的題目也難不倒你啦！
