According to a recent newspaper article, girls do better than boys at every level of education.So it is hardly surprising that boys are now far more likely(可能的) than girls to go to universities.
“Eclipsed” (黯然失色)
Mary Curnock Cook, a leader of the University, is so worried about the future of boys that she wants to see a national effort to solve the problem.If this difference goes on growing, girls born this year will be 75% more likely to go to university than boys.
So what is at the root of this gap(差距)? Are there changes in the nature of universities which have led to the dominance of girls on campus? Are girls simply better at schoolwork these days, and boys less interested?
By the time teenagers get to their high school, the number of girls is bigger.So before they sit a single exam, there are probably more girls than boys who are likely to go to university.
“Waste of time?”
The average grade for a girl is C+ compared to C for a boy at A-level examinations.But the differences between boys and girls start much earlier on.
According to a University of Bristol study, boys are nearly twice as likely as girls to have fallen behind by the time they start school.Primary schools often have more female teachers, and mothers helping out.
According to the study, girls and boys often have different attitudes towards schoolwork.The report says : “Boys are more likely than girls to regard school as a waste of time.” What’s more, boys tend(倾向) to spend over one hour less per week on homework than girls.They are more likely to play computer games and less likely to read outside of school.
“There are a lot of boys thinking they can get away with the least work and wanting to spend their time doing other ‘more interesting things’,” says Roger Leighton, the former head teacher of Sydney Russell School.“Girls, on the other hand, tend to understand the need to work hard earlier on --- they take a longer view.”
1.Mary Curnock Cook wants to _______.
A. find out the cause for the difference B. find out the number of girls on campus
C. see boys work harder than they used to D. see people work together on the problem
2.The underlined word “dominance” in Paragraph 4 probably refer to “______”.
A. achievement in schoolwork B. position of advantage
C. progress in subjects D. control of attention
3.What can we learn from the passage?
A. Boy do better at some levels of education.
B. There are changes in the nature of universities.
C. Girls spend more time on schoolwork than boys.
D. Boys and girls perform similarly in primary school.
4.Which of the following is probably the best title for the passage?
A. Which is more attractive to students?
B. What do girls understand better than boys?
C. Why do more girls than boys go to university?
D. Who is more likely to do a better job in universities?
