問題詳情：

Three of four Americans support employing high-achieving high school students to become teachers, and the same percentage would encourage the brightest person they know to become a teacher. Half said that encouraging high school and college students to become science and math teachers is just as important as encouraging them to become scientists and mathematicians. But two of three think the ability to teach comes more from natural talent than from college training on how to teach.

Two of three Americans would like a child of theirs to become a public school teacher, a finding consistent with past poll results. However, Americans are concerned that their local public schools are having a hard time getting good teachers. This could be because Americans say they hear more bad stories than good stories about teachers from the news media.

Almost three of four Americans have trust and confidence in public school teachers, and this level of trust is even higher for Americans under age 40, the college educated, and parents of children in public schools. As a sign of this trust, three of four Americans believe teachers should have the quality to teach in the ways they think best rather than being required to follow the official curriculum（課程）.
