A common assumption about the private sector of education is that it caters only to the elite.【C1】______, recent research points in the opposite direction. If we want to help some of most【C2】______group in society, then encouraging deeper private sector【C3】______is likely to be the best way forward.
Several developments are【C4】______in India, all of which involve the private education sector meeting the【C5】______of the poor in distinct ways.【C6】______India is not unique in this respect similar phenomena are happening all over the developing world.
As a point of departure, how do government schools serve the poor? Usefully, the government sponsored Public Report on Basic Education in India from 1999 paints a very【C7】______picture of the "【C8】______" of the government schools for the poor. When researchers【C9】______unannounced on their random sample of the schools, only 53% had any "teaching activity" going on.【C10】______, the team noted that the【C11】______of teaching standards has nothing to do【C12】______disempowered teachers, but instead could be【C13】______"plain negligence". They noted "several cases of irresponsible teachers【C14】______a school closed for months at a time".
But is there any【C15】______to these schools? Surely no one else can do better than government【C16】______the resources available? As it happens, the Report pointed to private schools that were serving the poor and【C17】______that such problems were not found in these schools. Most parents believed that private schools were successful because they were more accountable:" the teachers are accountable to the manager who can fire them, and,【C18】______him or her, to the【C19】______who can withdraw their children. " Such accountability was not present in the government schools, and "this contrast is【C20】______with crystal clarity by vast majority of parents".
【C7】
选项
A、desolate
B、bleak
C、ingenious
D、delicate
答案
B
解析
结合上下文可知,研究者们为政府学校的不良运作描绘了一幅悲凉的、毫无希望的前景,故选[B]bleak“荒凉的,无望的”为答案。[A]desolate为强干扰项,虽有“荒凉”之意,但并无“无望的”的含义;[C]ingenious“机灵的;有独创性的”;[D]delicate“美味可口的;娇弱的”。
