读经一（天主使万世协助那些爱他的人得到益处。）恭读圣保禄宗徒致罗马人书 8:26-30弟兄们：圣神扶助我们的软弱，因为我们不知道怎样祈求才对，而圣神却亲自以不可言喻的叹息，代我们转求。那洞悉心灵的天主，知道圣神的意愿是什么，因为圣神是按照天主的旨意代圣徒转求。我们知道：天主使一切都协助那些爱他的人，就是他照自己的旨意所召叫的那些人，获得益处，因为他所预拣的人，也预定他们与他儿子的肖像相同，好使他儿子在众多弟兄中做长子。天主不但召叫了他所预定的人，而且也使他所召叫的人成义，并使成义的人，获享光荣。——上主的圣言。答唱咏 咏12:4-6答：上主，我仰赖你的慈爱。领：上主，我的天主！求你垂顾我，应允我，求你照亮我的眼睛，不要让我沉睡丧亡，免得我的仇敌说：“我战胜了他！”免得我跌倒时，仇人欢欣若狂。答：上主，我仰赖你的慈爱。领：但我却仰赖你的慈爱，我的心灵因你的救援而欢乐，我要向厚待我的上主呕歌。答：上主，我仰赖你的慈爱。阿肋路亚 得后2:1-4答：阿肋路亚。领：天主藉福音召唤了我们，使我们获得我们的主耶稣基督的光荣。答：阿肋路亚。福音（从东方和西方将有人来，在天主的国里吃饭。）恭读圣路加福音

For many years, Diane Ravitch was among the country’s leading conservative thinkers on education. The cure for what ailed the school system was clear, she believed: high-stakes standardized testing, national standards, accountability, competition, charters, and vouchers.
