2013.2.19
有报导说，英国教育考查团来中国时对中国的九九乘法口诀印象深刻。据说中国的小孩
比英国同龄小孩算术能力强很多。
一个自然的问题是，九九乘法口诀有什么神奇的地方？难道英国没有吗？英国当然有乘
法口诀。事实上任何一种文明语言都有乘法口诀，只不过不见得有中文九九表这么简洁
。本文要探讨的就是这个简洁在算术上的优势。
中国的高中生在国际数学奥林匹克上拿冠军已经不是什么新鲜事了。事实上，不拿冠军
才是新鲜事。有人认为这是强化训练的结果，不能真正代表平均水平。小学生的国际竞
赛不多，一般的小学生（不是选出来的那些）应该没有什么强化训练，他们之间的比较
应该有一定的代表性。英国教育考察团看到的差距应该是真实的差距。
或许有人要说，中国的家长在小孩没有上小学以前就普遍开始强化训练自己的小孩，所
以仍然没有可比性。那么我们再来看一般大众。根据我过去近30年的体验，美国大众的
算术能力是很难恭维的。毫不夸张地说，如果没有收银机，商店里面许多收银员不能地

2013.2.19
有报导说，英国教育考查团来中国时对中国的九九乘法口诀印象深刻。据说中国的小孩
比英国同龄小孩算术能力强很多。
一个自然的问题是，九九乘法口诀有什么神奇的地方？难道英国没有吗？英国当然有乘
法口诀。事实上任何一种文明语言都有乘法口诀，只不过不见得有中文九九表这么简洁
。本文要探讨的就是这个简洁在算术上的优势。
中国的高中生在国际数学奥林匹克上拿冠军已经不是什么新鲜事了。事实上，不拿冠军
才是新鲜事。有人认为这是强化训练的结果，不能真正代表平均水平。小学生的国际竞
赛不多，一般的小学生（不是选出来的那些）应该没有什么强化训练，他们之间的比较
应该有一定的代表性。英国教育考察团看到的差距应该是真实的差距。
或许有人要说，中国的家长在小孩没有上小学以前就普遍开始强化训练自己的小孩，所

comparing Chinese and Americans. Basically, the idea of independent/dependent
self-construal relies heavily on evidence found from so called "twenty
statement test", which asks twenty "I am ..." for people to fill out the
blank. I doubted the results might be an artifact because if they use “我是。

that it does in English. Hong and colleagues carefully re |

发帖数: 32 | 45 Earlier this fall, Steve Ferdman celebrated getting a job offer Credit
Suisse in the usual Wall Street fashion. Over expensive oysters and dark rum
cocktails at a trendy Manhattan restaurant with his parents, he toasted
landing the full-time position after working six months as a consultant
without benefits.
A week later, Mr. Ferdman, 28, sat alone at the same place and ordered a gin
and tonic to lament getting laid off by the bank, for the second time since
2008. When he told the bartender abou... 阅读全帖 |

ms that hedgies are remunerated perfectly appropriately to charges that they
are outright crooks who prey on gullible and greedy investors. Because the
industry has grown enormously i... 阅读全帖 |
