Apply to an American
CollegeEarlier, we explained
how to begin a search for schools by going to one of the American educational
advising centers around the world. We also discussed the rules for entering the
United States. And we talked about programs that can be completed online.But if your goal is to
come to the United States to study, then it is time to make a list of colleges
or universities that interest you. Be sure to choose more than one. Directors
of foreign student admissions say students should apply to at least three
schools.Some students want to
attend a small college. Others want to go to a big university. If a really big
university appeals to you, then there are ones like Ohio State. That university
in Columbus, Ohio, in the Midwest, has almost fifty-two thousand students.
There are students this year from around one hundred fifty countries.Ohio State provides
international students with an application on its Website. You can pay the
application charge online with a credit card. Or you can print the forms and
mail them with the payment.Many colleges and
universities have their applications and also their catalogs online. You should
start on your applications at least two years before you want to begin studies.Completing a college
application can take some time. But answering all the questions is not enough.
Another important step is taking admissions tests. The SAT is the college entry
test that American high school students most commonly take.Colleges and
universities also require international students to take the TOEFL — the Test
of English as a Foreign Language.If you have a general
question for our Foreign Student Series, write to special @ voanews. com.1.What purpose does

their counterparts in many industrialized countries, yet they spend far more
hours in front of the classroom, according to a major newinternational
study.　　B The salary differentials are part of apattern of relatively low public
investment in education in the United States compared with other member
nationsof the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, a group in
Paris that compiled thereport. Total government spending on educational
institutions in the United Statesslipped to 4.8 percent of gross domestic
product in 1998, falling under theinternational average — 5 percent — for the
first time.　　C “The whole economy has grown faster thanthe education system,” Andreas
Schleicher, one of the reports’ authors,explained. “The economy has done very
well, but teachers have not fullybenefit.” The report, due out today, is the
sixth on education published since1991 by the organization of 30 nations,
founded in 1960, and now covering muchof Europe, North America, Japan, South
Korea, Australia and New Zealand.　　D In addition to the teacher pay gap, thereport shows the other countries
have begun to catch up with the United Statesin higher education: college
enrollment has grown by 20 percent since 1995across the group, with one in four
young people now earning degrees. For thefirst time, the United States’ college
graduation rate, now at 33percent, is not the world’s highest. Finland,the
Netherlands, New Zealand and Britain have surpassed it.　　E The United States is also producingfewer mathematics and science
graduates than most of the other member states.And, the report says, a college
degree produces a greater boost in income herewhile the lack of a high school
diploma imposes a bigger income penalty. “The number of graduates is increasing,
but that stimulates even more of a demand —there is no end in sight,” Mr.
Schleicher said. “The demand for skill, clearly,is growing faster than the
supply that is coming from schools and colleges.”　　F The report lists the salary for a highschool teacher in the United
Stateswith 15 years experience as $36,219, above the international average of
$31,887but behind seven other countries and less than 60 percent of
Switzerland’s$62,052. Because teachers in the Unites States have a heavier
classroom load —teaching almost a third more hours than their counterparts
abroad — theirsalary per hour of actual teaching is $35, less than the
international averageof $41 (Denmark, Spain and Germany pay more than $50 per
teaching hour, SouthKorea $77). In 1994, such a veteran teacher in the United
States earned 1.2 times theaverage per capita income whereas in 1999 the salary
was just under thenational average. Only the Czech Republic, Hungary,Iceland and
Norway pay their teachers less relati in South Korea,
teachers theactual teaching salary earn 2.5 times the nationalaverage. Teacher
pay accounts for 56 percent of what the United Statesspends on education, well
below the 67 percent average among the group ofcountries.　　G The new data come as the United Statesfaces a shortage of two million
teachers over the next decade, with questions oftraining, professionalism and
salaries being debated by politicians local andnational. Joost Yff, an
international expert at the American Association ofColleges of Teacher
Education, said training for teachers is comparable amongmost of the nations in
the study, and that they are all dealing with similarissues of raising standards
and increasing professionalism.　　H Though the United States lags behind in scores on standardized tests in
science and mathematics, students here get more instruction in those subjects,
the report shows. The average 14-year-oldAmerican spent 295 hours in math and
science classes in 1999, far more than the229 i only
Austria(370 hours), Mexico (367)and New Zealand(320) have more instruction in
those subjects. Middle-schoolers here spend less time thantheir international
counterparts studying foreign languages and technology, butfar more hours
working on physical education and vocational skills. High schoolstudents in the
United Statesare far more likely to have part-time jobs: 64 percent of Americans
ages 15 to19 worked while in school, compared with an international average of
31 percent(only Canada and the Netherlands, with 69 percent, and Denmark,with 75
percent, were higher).　　I One place the United States spends more money is on special services for
the disabled and the poor. More than one infour children here are in programs
based on income — only five other countriesserve even 1 in 10— and nearly 6
percent get additional resources based on physical or mental handicaps, twice or
three times the rate in other countries.　　J The report shows a continuing shift inwhich the United Statesis losing
its status as the most highly educated among the nations. The UnitedStates has
the highest level of high school graduates ages 55 to 64, but fallsto fifth,
behind Norway, Japan, South Korea, the Czech Republic andSwitzerland, among ages
25 to 34. Among college graduates, it leads in theolder generation but is third
behind Canada and Japan in the younger cohort (一群). While the portion of
Americans with high schooldiplomas remains at 88 percent across age groups, the
average age among membercountries is rising. It has gone from 58 percent of
those ages 45 to 54, to 66percent of those ages 35 to 44 and 72 percent of those
ages 25 to 34. A higherpercentage of young people in Norway,Japan, South Korea,
the CzechRepublic and Switzerland have degrees than in the United States.　　K “The U.S. has led the development incollege education and making
education sort of accessible for everyone,” Mr.Schleicher said. “It’s now
becoming the norm.”　　1. Compared with their counterparts in many industrialized countries, the
U.S. teachers work longer.　　2. The U.S. government spent 4.8% of its GDP on education in 1998.　　3. From the passage we learn about Finland surpassesthe U.S.in college
graduation rate.　　4. When the number of graduates in the U.S.increases, the demand for them
is rising.　　5. The new study shows that the actual teaching salary per hour in the U.S.
is $35.　　6. In the report, the U.S.students’ study of science and mathematics get
most instruction in those subjects in the OECD.　　7. Compared with those in other OECD countries, high school students in the
U.S. spend more time in in physical education and vocational skills.　　8. It is for the special services for thedisabled and the poor that the
United States pays more money than other OECD countries.　　9. Those who have high school diplomas in the U. S. account for 88percent
ofthe Americans of all ages.　　10. According toMr. Schleicher, the U.S.is becoming the norm in making
education accessible for everyone and collegeeducation.　　1.A　　2.B　　3.D　　4.E　　5.F　　6.H　　7.H　　8.I　　9.J　　10.K

On last Tuesday President Obama gave a
nationally broadcast speech to students about the importance of staying in
school.He spoke on the first day of classes at a high school in Virginia.He
talked about personal responsibility，and used himself as an example of someone who overcame
difficulties.
“My father left my family when I was two years
old，and I was raised
by a single mother who had to work and struggled at times to pay the bills and
wasn't always able to give us things the other kids had.There were times when I
missed having a father in my life.There were times when I was lonely and felt
like I didn't fit in，”said President
But he told students that problems in their own
lives should not stop them from learning. “There's no excuse for talking back
to your teacher，or cutting class

Monday，and that calmed a
lot of critics.
On Sunday，on the CBS program“Face the Nation”，Untied States Secretary of
