Back in the day, a good report card earned you a parental pat on the back, but now it could be money in your pocket. Experiments with cash incentives (激励) for students have been catching on in public-school districts across the country, and so has the debate over whether they are a【C1】______tool for hard-to-motivate students.

The program【C3】______by the Louisiana Department of Social Services and the Louisiana Workforce Commission was simple: enroll in college at least half-time,【C4】______at least a C average and earn $1,000 a semester for up to two terms. Participants, who were randomly【C5】______, were 30% more likely to register for a second semester than were students who were not offered the supplemental financial【C6】______. And the participants who were first offered cash incentives in spring 2004—and thus whose progress was tracked for longer than that of subsequent groups before Hurricane Katrina【C7】______forced researchers to suspend the survey for several months in August 2005—were also more likely than their peers to be enrolled in college a year after they had finished the two-term program. Students offered cash incentives in the Louisiana program earned more【C8】______and were more likely to attain a C average than were nonparticipants. And they showed psychological【C9】______too, reporting more positive feelings about themselves and their abilities to【C10】______their goals for the future.
