问题     When school officials and unions work together, students have a real chance to come out on top. That was clear this week【C1】________the State Education Department and New York’s teachers’ unions【C2】________agreement on a rigorous teacher evaluation system.
    The Legislature should quickly approve the【C3】________. It would improve New York’s schools and the state’s chances in the second round of the federal Race to the Top competition for hundreds of millions of dollars in education【C4】________.
    The proposal, which resembles one developed through a(n)【C5】________partnership in New Haven, does away with the poor evaluation system【C6】________which teachers are observed briefly in the classroom and【C7】________the most ineffective ones regularly receive glowing ratings.
    The new system would require more【C8】________monitoring and would finally take student【C9】________into account. Teachers would eventually be【C10】________on a 100-point scale, with 25 points based on how much students improve on the【C11】________state exams and 15 percent based on locally selected measures. The【C12】________part of the e-valuation would be locally determined, consistent with state regulations, and could include such things as evaluations by a school principal, peer observations, a teacher’s ability to【C13】________lesson plans and so on.
    Teachers would be【C14】________as highly effective, effective, developing or ineffective. Those who need help would be given【C15】________. Those rated ineffective for two【C16】________years could be fired through a hearing process that would take no longer than 60 days. Right now that process can【C17】________for more than a year.
    The State Education Department deserves particular praise,【C18】________do the two union presidents, Richard Iannuzzi of New York State United Teachers and Michael Mulgrew of the United Federation of Teachers, the city’s union. They worked on this deal even though their members are angry about coming【C19】________Legislature should move swiftly on the bill【C20】________the state can meet the next Race to the Top application deadline. It is due on June 1.
【C19】
选项 A、teaching
B、pressures
C、layoffs
D、cuttings
答案C
解析 这里考查members会生气的原因。上文提到对老师的评估，不合格的会被fire(解雇)。所以此处应该选C项layoffs“裁员，解雇”。按常理，令老师们动怒的应该不是teachings“教学”，而是更严重的事情，A项排除。虽然新的标准更加严格，压力也会陡增，但B项pressures“压力”不是老师们生气的最主要原因。D项cuttings“削减”，指削减开支、费用等，此处没有上下文依据。
