华盛顿研究机构第三条道路(Third Way)最新发布的一份研究报告显示,上幼儿园时,女孩比男孩更加专心,更守规矩,更具韧性,更加灵活和独立。这种差异在小学期间进一步扩大,加大了两性之间的成绩差距。到了八年级,48%的女孩获得A和B,甚或更好的成绩组合。只有31%的男孩能够获得这样的成绩。
And in an economy that rewards knowledge, the academic struggles of boys turn into economic struggles. Men’s wages are stagnating. Men are much more likely to be idle — neither working, looking for work nor caring for family — than they once were and much more likely to be idle than women.
在这样一个奖励知识的经济体中,男孩的学业困境往往会转化为经济困境。男性的工资正陷于停滞。与往昔相比,男性现在更有可能无所事事——既没有工作可做,也不找工作和照顾家人。他们无事可做的可能性也要远远大于女性。
We reported last week that the United States had lost its once-enormous global lead in middle-class pay, based on international income surveys over the last three decades. After-tax median income in Canada appears to have been higher last year than the same measure in this country. The poor in Canada and much of western Europe earn more than the poor here.
我们此前的报道说,针对过去30年的国际收入调查显示,在全球范围内,美国中产阶级的薪酬已经失去了昔日的巨大领先优势。加拿大去年的税后收入中位数似乎高于美国。加拿大和西欧许多国家的穷人要比美国穷人挣得更多。
