Some twenty years ago, the performance of girls and boys in class was compared. Boys 【B1】______ better in exams, so various【B2】______were introduced to improve the performance of girls, including having【B3】______sex girl-only classes. Now, the situation is 【B4】______, with girls consistently out-performing boys.
So, what has gone wrong with boys, and what can be done about it? John Dunsford, leader of the association of head teachers of【B5】______ schools, says that that the academic【B6】______ of boys is a problem which has its【B7】______ in society rather than the classroom. Girls, more than boys, see education as a passport to a good job. On the other hand, according to Penny Lewis, a head teacher, young men lack【B8】______, which they hide with a show of bravado(虚张声势). They’re uncertain about their place in society. Some boys grow up in families where there is no male role model to follow.
Moreover, boys may learn in a different way to girls,【B9】______. And education is not seen as "cool".
As one contributor to a BBC website put it, "Girls achieve more at school【B10】______
This is not just a problem in Britain. In a study by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development and UNESCO, girls out-performed boys at reading at the age of 15 in all 45 countries. The UK ranks ninth out of the 45 countries for reading【B11】______. Interestingly, the study suggested that British children read for pleasure more often than those in other countries.
