3、n math or science. “ The reason, he said, “is because the system is deeply and fundamentally flawed. “ The new analysis, which released this week by the National【 S3】 _ Science Foundation in Arlington, Va. , is based on data collecting【 S4】 _ from about 50 nations as part of the Third International
4、Mathematics and Science Study. Not only approaches to teaching science and math vary among【 S5】 _ individual U. S. communities, the report finds, but there appears to be a little strategic focus within a school districts curricula, its【 S6】 _ textbooks, or its teachers activities. This contrasts sha
5、rply with the coordinated national programs of most other countries. In average, U.S. students study more topics within science【 S7】 _ and math than their international counterparts do. This creates an educational environment where “ is a mile wide and an inch deep,“【 S8】 _ Schmidt notes. For instan
6、ce, eighth graders in the United States cover about 33 topics in math versus just 19 in Japan. Among science courses, the international gap is even wide. U.

8、ge in this country have suddenly given way to apparent abundance. Stores and shops are choked with food. Rationing is virtual suspended, and overseas suppliers have【 S1】 _ been asked to hold back deliveries. Yet, instead of joy, there is widespread easiness and confusion. Why do food prices keep on【

Does it mean【 S3】 _ that we need to think less now about producing more food at home? No one knows what to expect. The recent growth of export surpluses on the world food market ha
10、ve certainly been unexpectedly great, partly because of a strange【 S4】 _ sequence of two successful grain harvests. North America is now being followed by a three. Most of Britains overseas suppliers of meat, too,【 S5】 _ are offering more this year and home production has also arisen.【 S6】 _ But the
11、 effect of all this on the food situation in this country has【 S7】 _ made worse by a simultaneous rise in food prices, due chiefly for the【 S8】 _ gradual cutting down of government support for food.
