take a page from #2

CNNにあった教育に関する記事からの引用です。take a page fromは過去に本ブログでUG先生がtake a page from the ~ playbook(〜の対策マニュアル,計画書から(そっくりそのまま)まねをする)という表現を採り上げています。

今回はplaybookは省略されていますが,意味は基本的に同じです。引用箇所も「フィンランドの教育(制度)を見習いう」と解釈できます。(Koyamamoto)

Why Finland's schools are top-notch
(CNN) -- Millions of American parents spend countless hours trying to figure out how to help their children get better grades, better teachers or better schools.
They may want to take a page from Finland, which is considered to have one of the leading education systems in the world. Finnish students consistently score near the top in the Program for International Student Assessment, or PISA, for reading, mathematics and science. The 2012 PISA results tell us that in these three subjects combined Finland ranks third after Korea and Japan. In comparison, American students' combined performance in reading, mathematics and science places the United States at 21st among 34 Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development countries.
