Abstract :
This article focuses on the comparison between China and U.S in middle school mathematics teaching choreography, we want to find the different in the attention to the application problem and treatment. And we also focus on the application of U.S. high school mathematics textbooks scheduling problems, choosing a representative sample mathematical textbooks course1-3 published by PRENTICE HALL for research. And we use examples to show that the materials have the three levels of colorful mathematical application problem. Then we can know the rich life reality and knowledge background in American middle school students´ mathematics study and experience the real challenges of U.S. high school students faced in math test. Expect to bring readers a wealth of educational resources.
