Young people go to school to gather information, become respectable members of society, and prepare themselves either for university study or for employment. And it is a teacher’s job to help students accomplish these goals. But are public school teachers doing a good job?

A recent report has an answer-NO. And the details are disturbing. For one, researchers claim that 57% of all class time is wasted. During this time, no teaching or learning is actually taking place, as teacher has given this time to students to do whatever that wish. If students want to talk to friends or play computer games, that is what they do. Secondly, teaching are neglecting their classes by sometimes not even being in the room with their students. According to the report, teachers spend 33% of the time outside of the classroom where their students can’t see them. Thirdly, and probably most disturbing of all, 10% to 12% of teachers are drunk when they are giving their lessons.

It is clear that sth must change if public schools wish to help students accomplish their goals. And it seems that teachers should be supervised if improvements are to be made. Questions for the passage above: 1what is the passage mainly about? A
