听力原文

        (22) [Campaigners have warned that the British government is not doing enough to prevent left-handed pupils from falling behind their peers.] They claim that thousands of children are still being penalized for being left-handed. This is due to a lack of action from ministers who failed to take any meaningful action for years. It is feared that a failure to address early year challenges such as poor handwriting, leads to much more serious problems down the line with these pupils facing reduced career prospects.

        (23) [Studies in recent years show that left-handed children are more likely to suffer with learning difficulties, and their scores are lower on IQ tests.] Campaigners feel it’s strange that children in British schools are penalized because they happen to be left-handed. They don’t understand why successive governments have failed to act on this. (24) [They want the Department of Education to record which children are left-handed and what their educational attainments are] since they make up some 10% of the population. In early year education, left-handed children are struggling and making a mess of their handwriting. Educators don’t know how to deal with this. In many cases, there’s no active help and a lack of teacher training.

        Campaigners point out that a high percentage of the prison population is left-handed. (25) [They say that these prison numbers are unusually high and ask why it is the case.]

24. What do the campaigners demand the Department of Education do?

解析：D。录音中提到，活动人士希望教育部记录下哪些孩子是左撇子以及他们的学业表现。D项与此内容相符，其中的Keep track of是对录音中record的近义替换，school performance对应录音中的educational attainments，故D项为正确答案。

错项排除：A项利用录音中出现的penalized和teacher进行干扰，但录音中的being penalized是表示处于不利地位、被不公正地对待，并不是惩罚的意思，A项细节拼凑，故排除。B项中的mental health、C项中的professional skills在录音中都无依据，故均排除。
