With severe international competition, basic education in modern society is for more important than some other sorts of education. Good basic education is the key to the high qualified talents. So every country attaches great importance to basic education, but in our country, many of our basic education exists some misunderstanding, or even become a problem, seriously affecting the formation of good quality of the young generation. By the comparison of basic education related difference between china andAmerica, this paper tries to analyze the reason for the formation of the differences, which will have the very good inspiration and vigilant role to go out of the misunderstanding of our basic education. We cannot claim thatAmericabasic education is the ideal one, but the reasonable elements in their national basic education is precisely the lack of our basic education.

摘要：目前，全球化背景下中美两国间经济交流更显频繁，全球经济文化日益密切的交流与合作，教育显得非常重要。在激烈的国际竞争下，基础教育在现代社会中的重要性远远超过其他类型的教育，它是培养高素质人才的关键所在。但是，我国的基础教育存在不少误区，甚至成为一种顽疾，严重影响着青少年一代良好素质的形成。本文试图通过对中美两国基础相关方面的比较，分析形成两国基础教育差异的原因，对走出我国基础教育的误区将有很好的启发和警惕作用。我们不能断言美国家庭培养的人就是理想中的现代人，但他们国家基础教育中的合理成分恰恰是我国基础教育所缺乏的。因此，美国基础教育的一些实践，能为我国基础教育的改革提供借鉴。
