If they move it to the end of the field, they receive six points.
     It is difficult to move the ball. Eleven men on the other team try to stop the man with the ball. If he
does not move the ball ten yards, his team kicks the ball the other team.

     In a classroom in many countries, the teacher teaches more than art or history or language. He or she
also teaches the culture of the country.
     In a country such as the United States, people with different history, culture and language join
together and they pay much attention to personal ideas. Teachers try to make each student special.
Students to do not have to remember a lot of information, instead, they work and find answers by
themselves, There is often discussion in the classroom. At an early age students learn to have their own
ideas. Their education encourages personal thought. The important thing is on how to arrive at an answer
and not only to get the correct answer.
     In most Asian countries, people have the same language, history and culture. Perhaps for this reason,
the education there pays more attention to group goals than personal ideas; Children in China and Japan
often work together and help each other on homework. In the classroom, the ways of teaching are often
very traditional. The teacher says, and the students listen. There is not much discussion. Instead, the
students repeat rules or information that they have been taught in order to keep them in mind.
     In many ways these differences come from different educational ideas. In Western countries teachers
are taught to help students to learn. They make it easier for the students to learn by themselves. In some
Asian countries, however, teachers often feel that their job is to pass knowledge to students.
