Every education system is inevitably a mirror that reflects the culture of the society it
is a part of.

In many Western societies, such as the United States or Canada,【C1】______many different nationalities, religious groups and cultural orientations, individualism and independent thinking are【C2】______valued. And these values are reflected by the education systems in these countries. Teachers【C3】______the qualities that make each student special. Students are【C4】______expected to memorize information; instead, they are encouraged to【C5】______, find answers on their own and【C6】______individual solutions. At an early age, students learn to form. their own ideas and opinions, and to ex press their ideas in class discussion.

In Japan,【C7】______, the vast majority of people share the same language, history, and culture. Perhaps for this reason, the education system there reflects a belief in group goals and traditions【C8】______individualism. Japanese schoolchildren often work together and help one another on assignments. In the classroom, the teacher is the main【C9】______of knowledge: He or she lectures, and the students listen. There is not much discussion;【C10】______, the students recite rules or information that they have memorized.

The advantage of the education system in Japan is that students there learn the social skill of cooperation.【C11】______advantage is that they learn much more math and science than most American students. They also study more hours each day and more days each year than their North American【C12】______do.

The advantage of the education system in North America,【C17】______, is that students learn to think for themselves. They learn to【C18】______to make decisions and take action without someone telling them what to do. There are drawbacks, however.【C19】______other things, American high school graduates haven't studied as many basic rules and facts as students in other countries have.

Flirt with Suicide

The life of David Woods was the stuff of an Australian boy's dream. He played professional rugby league football in a country that treats athletes as idols. At 29, he had a loving family, a girlfriend, a 3-month-old baby, plenty of money, everything to live for. And for inexplicable reasons, nothing to live for. On New Year's Eve, Woods called his mother to announce that he had signed a new contract with his team, Golden Coast, recalls his elder brother, Tony. The next morning,, he ran a hose from the exhaust pipe to the window of his Mitsubishi sedan (轿车) and gasses himself. His family still has no idea why.

The death of David Woods came as a wake-up call to Australia, which is often voted as the ideal place to bring up kids. But the sun, the beaches and the sporting culture are the cheery backdrop to a disturbing trend: Young Australian men are now killing themselves at the rate of one a day — triple the rate of 30 years ago. Though most Australians aren't particularly suicidal, their boys are. In 1990 suicide surpassed car accidents as the leading cause of death among males aged 15 to 24. Fun-loving Australia is now far worse off than Asian nations known for strict discipline. The yearly suicide rate for young Australian males is 2.5 times higher than in Japan, Hong Kong, or Singapore.

Possible Causes for Suicide

Why boys? A nation of wide-open spaces and rugged individualism, Australia still idolizes the film star Gary Cooper model of masculinity: the strong, silent type who never complains, who always gets the job done. In recent years schools and social institutions have concentrated on creating new opportunities for equality for girls — while leaving troubled boys with the classic command of the Australian father: pull yourself together. It's past time to take a much closer look at the lives of young men, some researchers argue. "People think, 'My kids aren't doing drags, my kids are safe at home'," says psychiatrist John Tiller of Melbourne University, who studied 148 suicides and 206 attempts in the state of Victoria. "They are wrong."

The Haywards, a comfortably well-off family in Wyong, north of Sydney, figured they were dealing with the normal problems of troubled teenhood. Their son Mark had put up a poster of rock star Kurt Cobain, a 1994 suicide victim, along with a Cobain quote: "I hate myself and I want to die." "From the age of 12, Mark had his ups and downs — mood swings, depression and low self-esteem," says his father. The Haywards sent Mark to various counselors, none of whom warned that he had suicidal tendencies. By last year Mark was 19, fighting bouts (回合) of unemployment and a drug problem. He tried church, struggling to do the right thing. Last September he dropped out a detoxification (戒毒) program, and apologized to his parents. "I've let you down again." A few days later, his mother found Mark's body in bush-land near their home.

In retrospect, Mark Hayward's struggles were far from uncommon. The number of suicides tends to keep pace with the unemployment rate, which for Australians between 15 and 19 has risen from 19 percent in 1978, the first year data were collected, to 28 percent last year. Suicide is especially high among the most marginal: young Aboriginal (土著的) men, isolated by poverty, alcoholism and racism. As in other developed countries, Australian families have grown less cohesive in recent years, putting young men out into the world at an earlier age. Those who kill themselves often think "it'll make it easier for the parents by not being there".

The deeper mystery is why the universal anguish of growing up should have such particularly devastating effects in Australia. One answer is that the country allows easier access to guns than most other developed Asian countries. (One exception is neighboring New Zealand, where guns are as easy to find, and the suicide rate amo

The signs of the degeneration of American society and of Western civilization are all

too plain: declining educational standards, rising crime, disintegrating families and record rate of suicide among the young.Able-bodied beggars have become a common sight in cities from San Francisco to Washington, as well as in London and Paris.

Murders involving guns in New York City are now more than 30 times what they were half a century ago. Racial polarization has become far more common on college campuses than it was 20 years ago, and separate living arrangements have been created by college administrators who nevertheless proclaim their devotion to"diversity".

Official irresponsibility in Washington is symbolized by the soaring national debt-during a decade when government revenues doubled. And the new tax increases will not reduce this debt by one penny because spending has not been cut but simply renamed"investment."

Worst of all, much of the degeneracy of our times is not merely tolerated but celebrated. The crude words of“rap” music have beensanctified in editorial columns and by PhD.s at respected universities.Multiple murderers are mourned at their executions. An accused child molester (骚扰儿童者) on the Stanford University faculty has a medal struck in his honor after he commits suicide when confronted with the charges.

Despite a long history of struggle by blacks for better education, it has now become common in ghetto schools for those black youngsters who excel academically to be denounced for“acting white”--and to face social exclusion, or even physical violence, from their classmates.

The barbarians are not at the gates. They are inside.

1.According to the author, college administrators().

A.should not be blamed for racial discrimination

B.have successfully implemented satisfactory living arrangements for the students

A.People’s moral values are confused

B.people are generally irresponsible

C.young people are no longer ambitious

D.legal system is too lenient for criminals

4.The word"sanctified" in the fourth paragraph most likely means().

D.approved
