Who are better at science in your class, girls or boys? Nowadays, girls start to show more interest in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) subjects, according to a recent study by Cambridge Occupational Analysts (COA), UK.
In the study, last year, over 20,000 students who were in their final year in high school were surveyed. The number of girls considering university courses in STEM subjects has been larger than that of boys. Over a fifth of the girls surveyed said they were considering related jobs, such as engineering and technology. Interest has also risen in mechanical (机械学的) engineering, electrical engineering and the sciences.
This is an important change for women in the UK. In the past, there were not nearly as many women as men studying STEM subjects or working in STEM related fields. Only 13% of people who graduated from university with STEM degrees were women. Now, there are about 22%. In the past, only one eighth of the STEM jobs were held by women. This was partly because of the stereotype (刻板印象) that men are more suited to this work than women. Now it has been changed. Over 20% of the engineers are women in the UK.
In fact, STEM subjects are fun and exciting. ①Studying science can benefit (使……受益) girls. “It opens girls up to fascinating careers,” Niki Yates, manager of GSK’s UK Business, told The Daily Telegraph. ②She says it is important to encourage young women to do these jobs. They will receive higher pay in these areas. More women in work also helps the economy grow.

How to get to my home

Spotz began sailing when she was at university, but she has never tried to sail such a long way before. It will be a great challenge for her. In recent years, she has swum all the way down the 325-mile Allegheny River and traveled by bike form Seattle to Washington. Spotz knows that she may see some dangerous things during the trip. It will be very dangerous if she meets very bad weather in the middle of the sea. But she believes that she can deal with all the difficulties. “I never thought I could run 26 miles,” she said. “But once I finished it, I realized that maybe I could do something even more difficult.” Spotz wants to collect money by going on this trip.

Other teachers had told me that our children were from poor families and not to expect any child to bring a Christmas gift. In fact,I wasn"t expecting any gifts.
Imagine my surprise when every child brought me a gift on the day before our holiday break. First,I got a much loved stuffed monkey from a shy girl. I was told,“He is my favorite,but I love you and I want him to be with you,Miss Taylor.”How thrilled I was!
Next came a new set of Christmas tree lights that was “missing” from a mother"s cupboard.
Finally,I came to one little boy"s gift which I had never received. It was an old,dirty and broken Christmas story book. Just when I wanted to express my happiness,I was interrupted(打断)by the giver,“And see,it is new!It still has the price tag.”
When other children laughed at him,I stopped them and said,“Oh,books are good in that way. The story is always new if you have not read it before. Now,let"s share one together.”Everyone listened quietly as I read the most wonderful Christmas story of my life.
I still keep those Christmas gifts. They always remind me of my lovely kids.
