问题     Chicago Public Schools are going to great lengths to hire teachers-now the school district recruits teachers from other countries to help solve a shortage of teachers. It all started in 1999, when Rouses Hannon, a math and physics teacher from Palestine, visited Chicago. He read about the teacher shortage at Chicago Public Schools and asked the school board if they’d hire him. The board was interested and decided to create a special program for foreign-born teachers like Hannon, and he was the first teacher hired.
    The program is called the Global Educator Outreach or GEO, and it’s a partnership between in Chicago is so extreme, the Government allows the school district to temporarily hire foreign teaching candidates using Hl-B visas. The Government grants these vise only to skilled foreign-born citizens so they can work in highly specialized jobs that can’t be filled with available U. S. workforce.
    Through the GEO, the school district has hired dozens of teachers from 22 different countries. Applicants must pass an English language test and specialize in math, science, world language or bilingual education. Hannon and the first GEO teachers started in the classroom at the beginning of the 2000 -2001 school year.
    What do the GEO teachers think of the American classroom? Hannon, who was hired to teach math at Gage Park High School, says classrooms in Chicago are very different from those in Palestine. For one thing, he says, the fixed schedule that forces students to attend the same classes at the same time each day becomes too dull. In Palestine, the class schedule changes each week. He says in Palestine, the culture forces students to work hard because if they don’t they’ll be kicked out and put in vocational schools, which limits their career options. There is not nearly as much pressure for American students to do well. He says he has to do double the amounts of work just to get his students interested.
选项
答案 芝加哥公立学校将大量的聘请教师，现在学校开始通过从其他国家大量的招募老师来解决教师的短缺。这种方法从1999年一位来自巴基斯坦的数学兼物理老师——柔丝-汉农访问芝加哥开始使用。他当时了解到芝加哥教师的短缺，主动询问学校的董事会是否可以雇佣自己。董事会对此非常感兴趣同时决定为来自国外像汉农这样的外国教师制定一个特殊的项目。从此汉农成了第一个被聘请的教师。 该项目叫做全球教育者扩大服务项目或者缩写成为GEO。这是一种在芝加哥公立学校和美国政府之间的合作关系。因为芝加哥的教师奇缺，所以政府允许校方暂聘请那些有H1一B的外国教师。政府的签证只给予那些出生在国外的有技能的公民，这样他们就可以从事高度专业化的工作，而这类工作无法依靠现有的美国劳动力来得到满足。 通过GEO，学校已经聘请了来自22个国家的许多教师。求职者必须通过英语考试并且在数学，科学，世界语言或者双语教育方面有特长。2000-2001年学期之初，汉农和第一位GEO老师开始在教室授课。 GEO老师们对美国教学有什么感受呢?受聘于盖奇帕克高中教数学的老师汉农说，在芝加哥的课堂教学不同于巴基斯坦。他说，其中的一项就是，迫使学生每天在同一时间同一教室学习固定的课程会很枯燥。在巴基斯坦，每个星期都会更改课程。他说，在巴基斯坦，国家文化促使学生努力的学习，因为如果不努力他们就会被开除进人职业学校，那样的话将来的择业面就会很窄。在美国学生的压力却没有那么大。他说要想让学生对他所教授的课程感兴趣他不得不下双倍的功夫。
