Millions of people are struggling to understand their paychecks or calculate money in shops, campaigners have said. Being bad at maths should no longer be seen as a badge of honor or down to genetics, (3) according to National Numeracy, a new organisation which aims to challenge the nation’ s negative view of the subject. Chris Humphries, chairman of the group, said that poor maths skills can affect an individual’ s life, leaving them at a higher risk of being excluded from school or out of work. Figures from a government survey published last year show that 17 million adults in England have basic math skills that are, at best, same as an 11-year-old, he said. Speaking of the launch of the National Numeracy, Mr. Humphries said, " That’ s a scary figure, because what it means is they often can’ t calculate or give change. "
Mike Ellicock, chief executive of National Numeracy, said, " We want to challenge this ’ I can’ t do maths’ attitude that is prevalent in the UK," (4) adding that it is vital that all primary school teachers understand key maths concepts as young children who fail to learn the basics will suffer later on.
Questions 3 and 4 are based on the news report you have just heard.
3. What does the organisation National Numeracy aim to do?
4. What is vital according to the chief executive of National Numeracy?
