They are given outside support to help them base their plans on the best available analyses of student needs. Its still early，but officials are already seeing stronger test scores and a narrowing achievement gap.But some critics are worried. “We risk producing something thats very expensive and time-consuming, and that will give educators a lot of trouble. ” says Frederick Hess. “Before we spend all that extra money, Id much rather see if we can figure out how to get 50 percent more instructional time out of the current school day. ”(328W)1.

Today, they are seen only occasionally along the river during festivals and cultural events.However, Dai can still remember a time when being pulled by trackers along the Yangtze River was the only way for people to travel from village to village in the mountainous Wushan county. Due to the areas rich mining resources, his services were vital for companies that wanted to ship their goods.“I was 15 or 16 when I started, ” said the retiree, explaining that his father also worked as a tracker. “He died in 1964, when I was a teenager. I cant even remember us tracking together, but we did. It was so long ago. ”Dai said that boats crews worked in teams with a first, second and third master. The first master was the most essential because he sat in the boat and steered (操纵) it along the safest route.“It was a key role. He had to guide the boat past jagged rocks and whirlpools. ” he said, adding that first masters were often the most experienced boatmen and the most familiar with the Yangtze River.“My tracker days were dangerous, ” Dai said, “If the boat got caught in a whirlpool, it could have swallowed the boat and all the trackers down with it. The same thing would have happened if the halter (缰绳) broke. ”Dais days as a tracker finally came to an end when his family invested in a motorboat in the early 1980s. He successfully applied for a license from Wushan shortly after. (332W)6.
