长期以来,发展中国家在不合理的国际经济关系中深受不公平交换之害。近年来,它们的贸易条件更加恶化,出口收入锐减,生产投资萎缩,债务负担沉重,甚至连续多年出现了资金从穷国向富国倒流的现象。富国愈富,穷国愈穷,这个趋势比十年前更加突出了。这种情况如果任其继续发展下去,对于全世界,不论是发展中国家还是发达国家,都将带来更加严重的后果。第三世界的经济发展已经成为关系全局的紧迫问题。现存的国际关系不应该也不可能原封不动地维持下去,建立国际经济新秩序是时代的需要。

有些人担心电脑技术的广泛使用会进一步恶化就业形势。但另一种观点认为尽管这对个人来说会丢掉饭碗,对整个社会来说由于提高了生产率,因而有利于经济的发展。不管对社会影响如何,有一点是肯定的:有技术的人变得越来越吃香,没技术的人工作越来越难找。

As far as American school system is concerned, it is almost impossible to pick out one institution as typical or even representative. The primary reason for this bafflement is that there are too great a variety of schools at both primary and secondary level, and the differences between or among them are just too huge. However, while singling out typical schools is next to impossible, there are enough basic features among them to permit some generalizations. Under the U. S. Constitution, the federal government has no power to make laws in the field of education; instead, each state is fully responsible within its own territory. Accordingly, each state has an educational administration, not subject to federal control. The state authorities lay down general principles concerning the organization of schools and such matters as the ages of compulsory education schools are provided and managed by local community boards of education. A fairly large cit-y has a board of its own; otherwise a board may cover the area of a county or of several local communities. All states have for some time had compulsory school attendance up to the age of sixteen, and some beyond that, but the laws are not everywhere enforced with the same vigor, with so much local control, the standards of education provided in different parts of the United States are by no means uniform. Elementary education begins at the age of six. There are almost always required subjects at each level, and pupils who do not do well often have to repeat courses. Many schools also support summer classes, where students can make up for failed course or even take extra courses. At this stage, four fifths of all the teachers are women, mostly married. The atmosphere is usually very friendly, and the teachers have for a long time now accepted the idea that the important thing is to make the children happy and interested. The old rigid and authoritarian methods of education were discredited in America rather a long time ago—so much that many people now thinks that education has gone too far in the direction of trying to make children happy and interested rather than giving them actual instruction. Education in nearly all parts of the United States is comprehensive in that there is no selection of children who attend full scale secondary education. Distinctions within the educational system are based in part on the use of private instructions by the few who can pay for them and think it worthwhile to do so, and more importantly, on the different social characteristics of the areas in which schools are placed. Racial factors may be involved, although segregation has been formally abandoned. However ever, whether they are public or private, schools in the United States have always stressed character training or social skills training through extracurricular activities, including organized sports and performing arts. As most schools start at around 8 o" clock every morning and classes often do not finish until 3 or 4 o" clock in the afternoon, such activities mean that many students do not return home until the early evening. Students, on the whole, seem to take as much interest in extracurricular activities as they do in school curriculum itself if not more. Consequently cycling, A-merican schools usually provide a very broad range of extracurricular activities, such as mountain climbing, horse racing, and chess playing. Quite many schools publish their newspapers, and some have their own radio stations. Almost all have student orchestras, bands, choirs, and theater and drama societies. As part of extracurricular activities, students are also encouraged to work as volunteers in hospitals and homes for the aged and do other public service work. At any rate, extracurricular activities for American students come in every shape and style.

本周四中国最高经济计划机构宣布,自从政府加强对抗通货膨胀的措施,国家商品期货价格已经下降。 国家发改委在其网址的声明说,发改委收集的数据表明,自11月11日以来直到本周三,铜、锌、橡胶、棉花、塑料、大豆油和白糖的平均期货价格下降了10%以上。 声明说,此次下阵主要是市场对政府一系列抵制通货膨胀措施产生的反应。 国家发改委也将此次下降归因于欧洲、美国和日本商品期货市场的不景气以及本国市场获利回吐。国家发改委在本周四发布的另一项网上声明中敦促地方政府,要求它们谨慎对待水、煤气、电力和石油等政府控价商品的价格上涨,进而减轻企业和人们的经济压力。
