In recent years, we’ve read a lot of articles about how we need better teachers in our public schools and, if the teachers’ unions went away, our kids【C1】______score like Singapore’s on the big international tests. There’s no question that a great teacher can make a huge difference in a student’s achievement, and we need to recruit, train and reward more such teachers.【C2】______here’s what some new studies are also showing: We need better parents. Parents more【C3】______on their children’s education can also make a huge difference in a student’s achievement.
How do we know? Every three years, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, or O. E. C. D. , conducts exams as part of the Program for International Student Assessment, or PISA, which tests 15-year-olds in the world’s leading industrialized nations on their reading【C4】______and ability to use what they’ve learned in math and science to solve real problems. America’s 15-year-olds have not been【C5】______themselves in the PISA exams compared with students in Singapore, Finland and Shanghai.
To better understand why some students【C6】______in the PISA tests while others do not, Andreas Schleicher, who【C7】______the exams for the O. E. C. D. , was encouraged by the O. E. C. D. countries to look【C8】______the classrooms. So starting in 2006, the PISA team went to the parents of 5,000 students and interviewed them "about how they raised their kids and then compared that with the test results". Two weeks ago, the PISA team published the main findings of its study:
Fifteen-year-old students whose parents read books【C9】______with them during their first year of primary school show markedly higher scores in PISA than students whose parents read with them infrequently or not at all.
Schleicher explained that "just asking your child how was their school day and showing【C10】______interest in their learning can have the same impact as hours of private tutoring. It is something every parent can do,【C11】______their education level or social background. "
These PISA findings were【C12】______in a recent study by the National School Boards Association’s Center for Public Education. "Monitoring homework; making sure children get to school; rewarding their efforts and【C13】______the idea of going to college. These parent actions are【C14】______to better attendance, grades, test scores, and preparation for college. " " The study found that getting parents【C15】______with their children’s learning at home is a more powerful【C16】______for achievement than parents attending school board meetings,【C17】______in classrooms, participating in fund【C18】______, and showing up at back-to-school nights. "
To be sure, there is no【C19】______for a good teacher. There is nothing more valuable than great classroom instruction. But let’s stop putting the whole burden【C20】______teachers. We also need better parents. Better parents can make every teacher more effective.
【C11】
选项
A、according to
B、respective of
C、depending on
D、regardless of
答案
D
解析
上文说父母只要真诚地询问孩子们在学校里的情况就可以起到很好的鼓励孩子学习的作用。空格处前面说“这样的事情每个父母都可以做到”,“It is something every parent can do”,所以空格处填的介词短语应该表达“无论,不管”之意,意思是“不管他们的教育水平或者教育背景如何”。[A]选项according to表示“根据”。[B]选项中respective表示“各自的”,没有respective of这个短语,而irrespective of才表示“不管,不顾”。[C]选项depending on表示“取决于”。[D]选项regardless of表示“不管,不顾”,为正确答案。
