Despite gains in recent years,women still fall behind men in some areas of math achievement,and the question of why has caused heated argument. Now,a study of first and second graders suggests what may be part of the answer:Female primary school teachers who are concerned about their own skills could be passing that along to the little girls they teach.
Young students tend to model themselves after adults of the same sex,explained Beilock,an associate professor in psychology at the University of Chicago. Little girls may learn to fear math from the women who are their earliest teachers. Beilock and her colleagues studied 52 boys and 65 girls in classes taught by 17 different teachers. Ninety percent of the US primary school teachers are women,as was all of those in this study.
Students’ math ability was not related to teachers’ math anxiety at the start of the school year,but at the end of the year,the more anxious teachers were about their own skills,the more likely their female students—but not the boys—were to agree to that “boys are good at math and girls are good at reading”.In addition,the girls who answered that way scored lower on math tests than either the classes’ boys or the girls who had not developed such a belief,the researchers found.
After seeing the results,the researchers recommended that the math requirements for obtaining a primary education teaching degree should be rethought. “If the next generation of teachers,especially primary school teachers,is going to teach their students more effectively,more care needs to be taken to develop both strong math skills and positive math attitudes in these educators,” the researchers wrote.
“Girls who grow up believing females lack math skills wind up avoiding harder math classes. It keeps girls and women out of a lot of careers,particularly in science technology,” Beilock said.

In English the spelling of words does not always represent the sound. So people say /rait/ but spell it right or write, or even rite. Combinations of letters may be pronounced in many ways. And some words just seem to have too many letters.
For Americans things are a little bit easier, thanks to the work of Noah Webster, a teacher who graduated from Yale University in 1778. As a young man, he had fought against the British in the American War of Independence, and he felt that written English in the newly independent United States should have a distinctive American look.
So he began his work on American English. His first book, The Elementary Spelling Book, suggested simplifying the spelling of English words. The book was extremely popular. By the 1850s, it was selling one million copies a year, making it one of the most popular school books ever.
Many of the suggestions were quickly adopted. Center instead of centre, program instead of programme, and flavor instead of flavour. Others, however, such as removing silent letters like s in island or the final e in examine, were not .
Webster is best known for his American Dictionary of the English language, which first appeared in 1828. It introduced lots of new American words, with information about their pronunciation and use, and, of course, the new spelling. The British criticized the dictionary, but it quickly became a standard reference book in the States. Today, Webster's dictionary is still the number one dictionary for American students.
1.What is the text mainly about?
A. Webster and his best sellers.
B. British and American English.
C. The history of American English.
D. The man who made spelling simple.
2.Which is the right order according to the text?
①Webster graduated from Yale University.
②American Dictionary of the English language came out.
③Webster's book was selling one million copies a year.
④Webster took part in the American War of Independence.
A. ②①③④ B. ③①②④ C. ④①③② D. ①②③④
3.What can we learn from the text?
A. All the spelling of words does not represent the sound.
B. The Elementary Spelling Book was published in the 1850s.
C. Webster's suggestions were accepted completely.
4.What attitude do the British have towards Webster's dictionary?
A. They thought highly of it.
B. They found fault with it.
C. They argued bitterly about it.
D. They followed the examples of it.
