14、ng Competent TeachingNations that have greatly improved their students achievements, such as Finland, Korea, Singapore, and others, attribute much of their success to their focused investments in teacher preparation and development. 21 (Create) a system that can routinely hire and prepare teachers e

15、ffectively and can support successful teaching is the arena (竞技场) in which the United States 22 (fall) behind the most. Although there are some great teachers in every community, the landscape of the supports for quality teaching looks like Swiss cheese. In some states, the holes are smaller, and in

16、 others they are bigger. Nor in no case is there a fully 23 (develop) system of instructional support even remotely comparable to that in high-achieving nations. And of course, as we have seen, the system is the weakest in communities 24 students needs are greatest.Some have argued that the answer t

17、o weak teaching in the United States id to eliminate “barriers” to teaching, such as teacher education and certification requirements, allow anyone who wants to teach into the classroom, and fire those who prove not to be effective. Although the interest in teaching effectiveness is important, this

18、approach does not offer strategy 25 (ensure) that teachers will have opportunities to gain the knowledge and skills they need in order to be effective, or that all schools will have the resources to attract and hire the best teachers. 26 does it protect the students in low-income schools, who will b

19、e the victims of unprepared and inexperienced teachers in the years until these teachers have demonstrated their incapability and left the field.A regulation 27 (focus) on easy access and easy firing ignores the question of how to develop widespread teaching skills and ensure a strong supply of high

20、ly able teachers for schools. 28 such supply, principals will be unable to hire strong teachers even if they are free to hire whomever they are pleased with, and, evidence shows that schools are likely to fire weak teachers, 29 they feel they wont be able to replace them. Even if they do, there is l

21、ittle guarantee that the quality of teaching 30 (improve). although there are good reasons to argue for stringer evaluation practices for removing incapable teachers and for recognizing excellent ones, a theory that the major problems with teaching can be solved by carrots and sticks alone leaves th

22、e development of teaching abilities to chance.Section BDirections: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once.
