One research has shown that public school teachers receive salaries almost the same as private sector workers who score the same on the SAT and other standardized tests of cognitive skill. But additional welfare—in 【S1】______, generous vacation time, pensions and retiree health plans—pushes total compensation for teachers 【S2】______50 percent above private sector levels.
Of course, formal tests like the SAT do not capture all of the skills 【S3】______to be an effective teacher, or a good worker. But if teachers are being underpaid for their non-cognitive skills, like communications or organization 【S4】______, it’s expected that teachers who shifted to private sector jobs would receive a significant raise. This does not happen. The average teacher suffers a slight decrease in salary upon leaving the profession, and likely a greater 【S5】______in fringe benefits.
Public school teachers already are compensated above fair market rates. The extra money is already there, but teacher quality has not risen to 【S6】______it. This implies a 【S7】______problem with how teachers are hired.
Rather than spending even more taxpayer money inefficiently, policymakers should 【S8】______ how school funds are used. Merit pay to reward the best teachers would be a good start. But merit pay must be part of fundamental reforms to help schools hire, 【S9】______and fire teachers according to the best interests of students. This kind of arrangement is standard in the private sector, where continuous quality improvement is both expected and 【S10】______. Ultimately, reform of teacher compensation will be most successful in school systems free of the regulatory burdens imposed by union contracts and the education bureaucracy.
A) abilities I) match
B) activities J) needed
C) certainly K) particular
D) change L) profit
E) delivered M) promote
F) explain N) reduction
G) fundamental O) roughly
H) generous
【S1】
选项
答案
K
解析
该空格位于介词in之后。根据句意可知,额外的福利,如长假、保险及退休健康计划提升了教师的待遇(补偿)。破折号后面的内容是对额外津贴的具体说明。由句意及搭配可知,应填入K)particular,in particular意为“尤其,特别”。
