There were 1, 300 schools who did not send a single student to Oxbridge(牛津剑桥)between 2006—2009. Let’s assume that there were at least some students in these schools who, with some more help, could convince admissions tutors to give them a place.
My proposal is to let the private sector find and coach these students, outside of normal school hours. In each geographical region, grant several private tutoring firms state contracts to scout and tutor for prestigious university entrance. They can sign up qualifying students and allocate them tutoring, outside of school hours, from this contract budget. A bonus will be awarded for each successful student.
The private tutoring firm will be free to sign up and release students promptly!they should be able to allocate their resources as they see fit, and not be compelled to retain students who, for example, they regard as not sufficiently committed. A similar freedom will be granted to the student. Contracts will not be renewed for under-performing firms.
Some people may find this proposal arguable because it avoids schools and sets up extra-curricula(课程外的)tutoring arrangements directly with the candidates. There are several good reasons for this.
First, after-school tuition for Oxbridge exams is common practice in the private sector and it is unhelpful to assume that disadvantaged pupils could compete without it. Second, there is already a set of targets for teachers to aim at:if these gifted students are helped at the expense of the others in the classroom, it could be an unpopular initiative. Perhaps most importantly, the act of pulling students away from their normal environment and into one that supports(and expects)higher ambition will help provide the necessary self-confidence to succeed.
Many talented people would relish a job in such a programme, since it would combine prospects for social good and material gain. Yet the most compelling argument for adopting this proposal is that paying the private sector by results is arguably the most efficient way of levelling the playing field. This strategy is already in use elsewhere in government policy. Here, it could put new power into social mobility and provide a life-changing opportunity to thousands who were least expecting it.
Many people will enjoy working in this situation, as this programme is a______of prospects for social good and material gain.

根据题干关键词many people,programme,prospects,social good and material gain定位到原文最后一段第一句:Many talented people would relish a job in such a programme,since it would combine prospects for social good and material gain.可知,很多有才能的人会在这样的项目中享受工作的乐趣,因为它把社会利益和物质好处结合在一起。故空格处应填入combine的名词形式combination。
