所谓异常儿童教育是指为
残疾儿童或天才儿童所提供的特殊教育服务。特殊儿童与普

感官能力、
体格特征、情感行为或交际能力上有一定的差异,
以至于需
要特殊的教育来发掘他们的潜能。据教育部估计,美国有
10%-20%
的孩子身患残疾,另外
有
2%-3%
的孩子被认为是天才。特殊教育为这些孩子提供与他们独特
才能相适应的学习体
验。
关心身患残疾的人是一个相对新
鲜的理念。在古代,残疾人会被遗弃而死,到了中世

没有人认为他们能够学习。到了
19
世纪,住宿式的治

以治疗眼盲、

20
世纪,特殊班级和公立日制学校开始问世,但它们所招收的学生还是
少数。
第二次世界大战之后,
美国人对残疾人的教育问题的态度
发生了很大的改变。
州立法机构和
联邦政府承担起特殊教育的义
务,
各类家长团体组建起来,
并结合专业教育项目,
为残疾儿

1925
年,
美国国会颁布了全美残疾儿童教育法案,
这保证了美国所有

different

The
____
between
larger tips and better service was very _____:

目前仅在美国,
小费就是一个每年总额高达
160
亿美元的行业。
最近的一项民意测验表
明,
40%
的美国人憎恨付小费。小费不应该存在,那么,为什么小费还存在
呢?传统的看法
是,
小费既奖赏优质服务,
又减轻不平等的那种不舒服感。
但是,
康奈尔大学新的研究
显示,
小费已不再具有任何使用的功能。
这份研究报告分析了在
20
家不同餐馆用餐的
2547
组人支付小费的数据。
较多小费与良
好服务之间的联系是非常微弱的,
小费数量的差异中只有很小一部分与
服务质量有关。
称赞
用餐“好极了”的顾客支付的小费仍然在餐
费的
8%-37
之间。
小费现象最好从文化角度解释,而不是从经济学角度。在美国,这种习俗已经制度化,
它被看成是一项服务被接受的价格的一部分。在纽
约的餐馆里,没有支付至少
15%
消费的
顾客很可能意味着会遭到服务员的辱骂。理发师可以得到
15%-20%
的小费,送外卖的可以
得到
2
美元。在欧洲,付小费没有那么普遍;
在许多餐馆,标准服务价格取代了随意支付的<
/p>
小费。在许多亚洲国家,付小费从未真正流行起来。
如何解释这些国家之间的差别呢?康奈尔大学那份研究报告的其中一位作者迈克尔
< br>?
林
恩说,
在人们性格外向、<
/p>
爱交际或易激动的国家里,小费往往付得较多。付小费可以减轻接
受陌生人服务的不安心理。林恩先生说:
“在美国,人们开朗大方,爱表现,支付小费和
社
会认可有关。如果你掏的小费少,人们就会看轻你。
”与之相
