Introduction

This article mainly introduces the comparative study of similarities and differences about Chinese and American education system，characteristics, and the effects of its own. As an English major, I think we need to look at Chinese and America education system, whether it is the same or different point, will help us to become better learning. Through this article, can we get a better understanding of the education system, the education idea of the United States, and its influence and so on. Maybe we can get inspiration from the American education system and the comparison of Chinese educational system,and then become a better English learners.

II.The characteristics of the American and Chinese education
A：Education system

The type of education in nowadays China is chiefly exam-oriented education whose characteristic is selecting people based on the marks they get in the exams. Obviously, this type of education has its disadvantages. The first, it has students pay too much attention to marks but overlook the development of ability. The second, luck plays an important role in this kind of education and it’s inefficient to select the right talented students. Moreover, regional unfairness also exist in nowadays education, which means students in some areas are easier to go to a good college while some others are much harder. Though these disadvantages are known by people, the educational reform is difficult to carry out because of actual conditions in China.
In America, education is not case as in China. America has been a highly developed country for a long time. The education in America had quite a scale since America was formed. Students will not get the degrees unless they accumulate enough credit points. Moreover, large discrepancies also occur in the characteristics of education between China and America. In America, education has more freedom. Students have rights to choose what to learn according to their interests, resulting in great diversity in the lessons found up in schools. American education attaches importance to developing the ability of students by pay attention to develop their creativity, confidence as well as social responsibility. Thus, students in America are reckoned to get a better education for all-round development than students in many countries, including China.
Insufficiencies can not be avoided in both countries’ educational structure. As you can see above, Chinese students lack creative minds, while American students are, comparatively speaking, weaker in basic knowledge. They should learn from each other so that they can make up their own deficiency. In a word, it is not practical to thoroughly change the whole structure of education in China, but it is inspiring to encourage students to think with a creative mind like American students do.

B:The fee for running

Twenty-first Century is the high-tech era of fierce competition, in the final analysisis the competition of talents. Therefore, to improve the national quality has increasingly become the focus of competition in the world. But the basic national conditions of our country at present is rich human resources, high quality human capital stock is actually insufficient. Therefore, we should seize the opportunity of developing our education, only increase the human capital investment, improving the overall education level of the whole nation, increase the high quality labor force supply, can further promote China's technology level, seize the opportune moment time steps proceed with determination, the realization of economic growth from extensive to intensive fundamental strategic transformation. To ensure that the investment of higher education is the precondition for the success of higher education, the current single investment from the government to do higher education is not enough, the diversification of sources of funding channels is to run one of the successful experience of higher education. China's higher education funding sources, USA higher education funding sources, by comparing the obtained enlightenment. China's higher education funding sources include the central government and local government investment, tuition, college student financial aid system, enterprise scientific research funding, in universities, social donation. America sources of higher education financing channels mainly include financial support for higher education USA the federal government, state government funded USA, on higher education tuition and fees,to USA higher school donation, contact between American enterprises and universities, each university to provide students with financial aid. Therefore, the establishment of higher education fund raising mechanism, improve our student loan system, encourage the joint-stock school, establish a college fund system,set up the education fund, promote the Countermeasures of "silver school cooperation" phenomenon, use foreign capital actively and reasonably, improve our universities fund management level.

C:Teaching aims

Two, USA established educational goals (2001)
(a) the specific content:
First, the elimination of the disadvantaged student achievement gap;

(two) characteristics
USA school's purpose is to give students need the support of all aspects, so that they become healthy, social competence, personality perfect person".
At the same time, their basic education attaches great importance to students of the actual strain ability and moral rational spirit, to cultivate the students as"creative, independent people and moral and responsible person." Some America schools to "respect students' personality", "strengthen the critical thinking", "cultivate the student's thinking ability of problem" and other requirements, as the fundamental purpose of running.

The similarities and differences about the education
System
A:Education ideas
"Love the motherland, love the people" to "comply with laws and regulations,strengthen the legal consciousness, to comply with school discipline school,abide by social morality"...... See these, as if these Get Word codes and in the ears.
The value orientation and the national culture background different, which determines the Si no US educational concept, educational mode and method sexist bigger difference. America primary code on the surface looks just some trivial matters, but its content is meticulous, and the language easy to understand, easy to accept by the pupils, so USA pupils have good study habits.By comparison, Chinese primary code is too abstract and empty, too much emphasis on form, language is only suitable for reciting, not easy to understand.The pupils in the face of these beautiful language can only do not stop reading back, their understanding is not enough to understand the profound connotation of the code, not to mention it in real life. Think of my primary school, the teacher asked us to not stop reading these codes, until the back down, but we never used in practice, which is a big reason for us to have a superficial knowledge of these codes are.
Can be said that no code of American students is a general, but Chinese pupils keep not a specific. Ever seen on the Internet about Si no US education two is the image of the equality, American students career: learning = fun + life knowledge + creative use of knowledge and a sense of achievement; Chinese students career: learning book knowledge + test + = boring. In the United States, the teacher is a participant, while in China, the teacher is a performer.
The differences between Chinese and American students code makes me think of the Si no US education system gap. In the United States, childhood education quite strict, American parents would set many of the rules, such as the kids can't make noise in public places and the like, but as the child grows older, will also become loose on the education of their children, parents of children in high school simply let themselves go back. While in China, but on the contrary,children are young, parents doting on their variety, without restraint, after growing up, but everywhere interference, college major, love object are the object of their intervention, which eventually led to the children are rebellious.
From the above opinion, the educational system in the United States relative to China's education system more scientific. But this does not mean that the American education system can copy to China operation. The culture of different countries decide the different education system, the formulation of the education system must be based on its own national conditions and the reality of the situation, I believe that in the near future China will find fit her unique education system.

B:Education methods
In addition to crazy in the era of Fenshukengru and right to rebel, "all things are,only reading high" has been Chinese universally recognized values. Chinese parents on the importance of education and reading to your child sacrifice will, is famous in the world.
In addition, the Harvard Yale ivy university can give their children's future is plated on the outside of said of sb's name halo only by name, a lot of growing up in Chinese exam oriented education under the oppression of Chinese parents,on American education seems to have a lot of good fantasy style education as the center of the teacher, the correct answer only and clear, as long as the students listen and notes for the exam, hence the name "cramming education".American education classes like seminars, the teacher is the leader, students are the main players, everybody's speech will be considered reasonable, there is no correct answer in most cases, so called "open education".
Compared with the learning does not depend on the interest, but for the examination cramming education power, to allow students according to their own will to choose learning content and mode of open education have its own advantages. But when you're the same as me experienced in New York storecash register failed to suspend business, because the cashier will not calculate change; hear two and people table of high school studen
