After rising steadily for almost a century, standards of education in the public schools of Europe and America have levelled off and, in the opinion of many parents and employers, are actually falling. More and more children are leaving school with little more than a basic knowledge of reading, writing, and arithmetic, and illit eracy is becoming a social problem once again. With dropout rates of twenty seven percent in high schools and fifty percent in colleges, the American education system is realy in trouble; European dropout rates, though lower than those of the US, are rising too.

Variuos factors have been blamed for the apparent decline in educational standards. Some people say that overcrowding and lack of discipline are major factors. Others maintain that subjects like art and drama have been overemphasized at the expense of more practical subjects. The negative influence of television is frequently mentioned as a reason for growing illteracy. Many  teachers and principals however insist that the problem is not of falling standards but of rising expectations on the part of parents and employers.

Whether or not standards in public schools are actually falling, many parents feel that the only way to secure a good education for their children is to send them t o private schools, which generally have smaller classes and stricter discipline. The popularity of such schools is growing steadily, despite the high tuition fees. In the United States, for example, eleven percent of all school children attend private schools, in France over six teen percent do so.

Text II
Bisons have not always lived in North America. They are relatively new
comers. They belong to the Bovidae family, like domestic cattle and the wild buffalo
of Africa and Asia. The oldest known bison fossils have been found in China and the
Himalaya Foothills where an animal with all the essential features of the genus lived
a million years ago. They evolved rapidly and spread over most of the northern
hemisphere in Europe and Siberia. During one of the Ice Ages, the sea level
dropped exposing a land bridge across the Bering Strait allowing the faunas of Asia
and North America to intermingle. Very early, the stepped bison moved eastward to
the North American Continent.
