一个50多人的英国考察团来宁波交流。他们是英国顶尖的25所中小学校的校长、教导主任。他们一共分成5组，分别到宁波几所学校听数学课。

A more than fifty British delegation to ningbo communication.They are Britain's top 25 primary and middle school principal/Director of teaching and.Together they are divided into 5 groups,A few schools respectively to ningbo to math.

　　昨天，这个考察团的25人到宁波万里国际学校和宁波高新区外国语学校听课。

yesterday,The investigation group of 25 people to ningbo wanli international school and ningbo hi-tech zone a foreign language school.

　　一位英国校长说，中国孩子的数学能力闻名世界。他们常常困惑，为什么数学方面的国际大赛，中国孩子老拿第一？他们此次来中国，就是来学习中国数学教学方式的。

A British President said,Chinese children's mathematical ability known around the world.They are often confused,Why was the math aspects of international competition,Chinese children old take first?They the to come to China,To study Chinese mathematics teaching mode.

　　昨天早上到下午，他们一共听了4节数学课，结果，数学九九乘法口诀和中国学生的数学能力，将他们深深地震慑了。

Yesterday in the morning to the afternoon,They listen to a total of four maths lesson,The results,Mathematics teaching the multiplication and the Chinese students' mathematical ability,Will they deeply the awe.

听课全过程，英国老师们都是站着的 Listening process,English teachers are standing

　　昨天的数学课，课堂后面给英国老师坐的椅子全空着他们走到学生中间，看学生课本、练习卷，并用手机、相机拍摄。中国孩子也确实没让他们失望。

Yesterday's math class,The classroom back to English teacher sit chair all empty they walk to among students,See students book/Practice roll,And mobile phone/cameras.Chinese children do not let them down.

　　宁波万里国际学校小学部一堂三年级数学课，老师在黑板上写了个题目：

Ningbo wanli international school primary school class three grade math,The teacher wrote on the blackboard a topic:

　　72÷3＝？

72 ÷ 3 =?

　　一位同学上台，立即写出答案24。这位同学说，用“九九乘法口诀”就能很快得出结论。现场12位英国老师顿时惊讶了。

A classmate on stage,Write the answer immediately 24.The classmate say,with"The mantra multiplication"Can quickly concluded.The 12 English teacher immediately by surprise.

　　一位英国老师说，在英国没有这样的口诀，72÷3＝？这道题是这样算的：

An English teacher said,In England no such a pithy formula,72 ÷ 3 =?This problem is so calculate:

　　10×3＝30，10×3＝30，4×3＝12，然后进行叠加，得出的答案是24。

10 by 3 = 30,10 by 3 = 30,4 x 3 = 12,Then stack,That answer is 24.

　　这道题，在英国得上好几堂课，学生才能学会。

The problem,In the UK on several class,Students can learn to.

　　对孩子们来说，中国式教育会不会太难了呢？一位英国老师说，他不这样认为，反而是英国的数学教学标准定的太低。

For children,Chinese education will not be too difficult now?An English teacher said,He doesn't think so,It is Britain's mathematics teaching standard set too low.

想学九九乘法口诀但没成功，原因是英文发音不顺口 Want to learn the multiplication possession but did not succeed,The reason is not so good English pronunciation

　　课后与宁波老师交流的时候，英国老师希望能学会九九乘法口诀。

The teacher after class and ningbo communicate,British teachers hope to learn the mantra multiplication.

　　宁波万里国际学校小学教科主任郑老师说，九九乘法口诀是中国的传统方法，但英国老师学起来很吃力，因为英文发音制约了口诀的背诵。

Ningbo wanli international school primary school teaching department director zheng said the teacher,The multiplication a pithy formula is China's traditional method,But British teacher learning and it was very difficult,Because English pronunciation teaching restricted the recitation.

　　九九乘法口诀中文最多五个字，而且一目了然，而用英文就是很长一段，比如“九九八十一”，英文是“nine nine eighty one”。

The multiplication teaching Chinese up to five words,And be clear at a glance,And with English is very long,Such as"9981",English is"Nine nine eighty one".

　　学不会就学不会吧，收获还是不小的。英国老师们表示，回国后，他们将把此次考察内容形成文件，呈交英国教育部，希望能对英国中小学数学教育有所帮助。*(通讯员 罗健　记者 王丹静)
