They were studying arts education in Chinese kindergartens and elementary schools in Nanjing.2. Their 18-month-old son Benjamin was fond of trying to place the key into the slot of the key box during their stay at the Jinling Hotel.3. They would come over to watch Benjamin and then try to teach him how to do it properly.4. Because he realized that this anecdote was directly relevant to their assigned tasks in China: to investigate early childhood education and to throw light on Chinese attitudes toward creativity.5. Most of them displayed the same attitude as the staff at the Jinling Hotel.6. He emphasized that the most important thing is to teach the child that on can solve a problem effectively by oneself.7. He means that this incident pointed to important differences in educational and artistic practices between China and the USA.8. The manner in which the Chinese staff saw the need to teach the child by guiding his hand in the characteristic of a broader attitude to education, one that stands in contrast to the Western preference for leaving the child to explore and learn unaided.9. One example is of children at the age of 5 or 6 painting flowers, fish and animals skillfully and confidently; in a second example, calligraphers 9 and 10 years old were producing works; and in a third, young artists work on perfecting their craft for several hours a day.10. Americans think that unless creativity has been acquired early, it may never emerge, and skills can be picked up later. Chinese think that if skills are not acquired early, they may never be acquired, and there is no hurry to promote creativity.11. This is mainly due to the difference in their way of thinking.12. The author makes the suggestion that we should strike a better balance between the poles of creativity and basic skills.

It is also helpful to summarize our experience as we go along, for in so doing, we can figure out which way of learning is more effective and will produce the most desirable result. As long as we keep working hard on it, we will in due course accomplish the task of mastering English.Unit2 ValuesPart II Reading TaskComprehensionContent QuestionPair Work1.

Unit 1Key to ExercisesPart I Pre-Reading TaskScript for the recording:Ways of learning is the topic of this unit. It is also the topic of the song you are about to listen to, called Teach Your Children sung by Crosby, Stills and Nash.Teach Your ChildrenCrosby, Stills and NashYou, who are on the road,Must nave a code that you can live by.And so, become yourselr,Because the past is just a goodbye.Teach your cbildren well,Their lather's hell did slowly go by.And reed them on your dreams,The one they picks,the one you'll mow by.Don't you ever ash them why, ir they told you, you will cry, So just look atthem and sigh and know they love you.Appendix I - 93 -And you, oi tender years,Can't know the rears that your elders grew by.Ana so please help them with your youtb,They seek the truth before tbey can die.Teacb your parents well,Tbeir children's bell will slowly go by.And reed them on your dreams,Tbe one tbey picks,tbe one you'll know by.Don t you ever ask them why, ir tbey told you, you will cry, So just lookat them and sigh and know tbey love you.The first part of die song is about how parents can inspire their children through sharing with them their dreams, their hopes for a better life. It starts with advice on how you need a set of rules, "a code diat you can live by," to guide you on the road of life. Only then will you be able to fully realise all that is within you and "become yourself." Therefore, parents need to teach their children well.And children — "you of tender years" — also have something to teach their parents, for learning is not a one-way street. Children should share their own dreams with their parents so that young and old can get to understand each otiier better.That said, one should not go too far. For some things are perhaps better left unsaid between parents and children. "Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you will cry." At such moments all that there is left to do is to look at one another and sigh, happy in each otiier's love.Part II Text A TextOrganization1. 1) The text begins with an anecdote/incident.2)His thoughts are mainly about different approaches to learning in China and the West.3)He winds up the text with a suggestion in die form of a question.1.

You can't accomplish your goal ofmastering the language unless you work at it for years. Well, it sounds as if I'm exaggeratingthe difficulties, but the fact is I'm only telling the truth.2)The principal is somewhat disappointed with the performance of the children. From whatshe has gathered, some of the teaching staff have neglected their pupils. She has justannounced that strict work regulations have been made and that they apply to both Chineseand overseas teachers.3)The teacher-directed and the child-directed approaches to teaching art represent two ex-tremes of opinion. Too many teacher-directed activities cannot be expected to effectivelyassist children in learning because of the rigid structure. On the other hand, too manychild-directed activities may see a curriculum that is totally unstructured and out of control.There are valid reasons to believe a teacher-guided approach would be a superior way to guidechildren's development. This approach combines some form of structure with the childleading the direction.II.

Though some people worry that the language is running out of control, many native speakers of English take pride in the tolerance of their language.。

全新版大学英语综合教程(第二版)第2册课文翻译Unit 1 Text A哈佛大学教育学教授霍华德·加德纳回忆其中国之行,阐述他对中西方不同的学习方式的看法。
Learning, Chinese-Style1987年春,我和妻子埃伦带着我们18个月的儿子本杰明在繁忙的中国东部城市南京住了一个月,同时考察中国幼儿园和小学的艺术教育情况。
然而,我和埃伦获得的有关中美教育观念差异的最难忘的体验并非来自课堂,而是来自我们在南京期间寓居的金陵饭店的大堂。
我们的房门钥匙系在一块标有房间号的大塑料板上。
酒店鼓励客人外出时留下钥匙,可以交给服务员,也可以从一个槽口塞入钥匙箱。
由于口子狭小,你得留神将钥匙放准位置才塞得进去。
本杰明爱拿着钥匙走来走去,边走边用力摇晃着。
他还喜欢试着把钥匙往槽口里塞。
由于他还年幼,不太明白得把钥匙放准位置才成,因此总塞不进去。
本杰明一点也不在意。
他从钥匙声响中得到的乐趣大概跟他偶尔把钥匙成功地塞进槽口而获得的乐趣一样多。
我和埃伦都满不在乎,任由本杰明拿着钥匙在钥匙的槽口鼓捣。
他的探索行为似乎并无任何害处。
但我很快就观察到一个有趣的现象。
饭店里任何一个中国工作人员若在近旁,都会走过来看着本杰明,见他初试失败,便都会试图帮忙。
他们会轻轻握紧本杰明的手,直接将它引向钥匙的槽口,进行必要的重新定位,并帮他把钥匙插入槽口。
然后那位“老师”会有所期待地对着我和埃伦微笑,似乎等着我们说声谢谢——偶尔他会微微皱眉,似乎觉得我俩没有尽到当父母的责任。
我很快意识到,这件小事与我们在中国要做的工作直接相关:考察儿童早期教育(尤其是艺术教育)的方式,揭示中国人对创造性活动的态度。
因此,不久我就在与中国教育工作者讨论时谈起了钥匙槽口一事。
TWO DIFFERENT WAYS TO LEARN我的中国同行,除了少数几个人外,对此事的态度与金陵饭店工作人员一样。
既然大人知道怎么把钥匙塞进槽口——这是处理槽口一事的最终目的,既然孩子还很年幼,还没有灵巧到可以独自完成要做的动作,让他自己瞎折腾会有什么好处呢?他很有可能会灰心丧气发脾气——这当然不是所希望的结果。

(performance,bold)Tom used to be very shy, but this time he was bold enough to give a performance in front of a large audience.很多教育家认为从小培养孩子的创新精神是很可取的。
(creative, desirable)Many educators think it desirable to foster the creative spirit in the child at an early age.假设那幅画确实是名作,你觉得值得购买吗?(Assuming that, worthwhile)Assuming that this painting is really a masterpiece, do you think it’s worthwhile to buy it?如果这些数据在统计上是站得住脚的,那它将会帮助我们认识正在调查的问题。
(throw light on, investigate, valid)If the data is statistically valid, it will throw light on the problem we are investigating.要提高我们的英语水平,关键是多读、多写、多听、多说。
另外,尽可能多背熟一些好文章也十分重要。
若果你的脑子里没有存储大量好的英语文章,你就不能用英语自由的表达自己的思想。

.....................最新资料整理推荐.....................Unit 1Key to ExercisesPart I Pre-Reading TaskScript for the recording:Ways of learning is the topic of this unit. It is also the topic of the song you are about to listen to, called Teach Your Children sung by Crosby, Stills and Nash.Teach Your ChildrenCrosby, Stills and NashYou, who are on the road,Must nave a code that you can live by.And so, become yourselr,Because the past is just a goodbye.Teach your cbildren well,Their lather's hell did slowly go by.And reed them on your dreams,The one they picks, the one you'll mow by.Don't you ever ash them why, ir they told you, you will cry, So justlook at them and sigh and know they love you.Appendix I - 93 -And you, oi tender years,Can't know the rears that your elders grew by. Ana so please help them with your youtb,Teacb your parents.....................最新资料整理推荐.....................Tbeir children's bell will slowly go by.And reed them on your dreams,Tbe one tbey picks,tbe one you'll know by.Don t you ever ask them why, ir tbey told you, you will cry, Sojust look at them and sigh and know tbey love you.The first part of die song is about how parents can inspire their children through sharing with them their dreams, their hopes for a better life. It starts with advice on how you need a set of rules, "a code diat you can live by," to guide you on the road of life. Only then will you be able to fully realise all that is within you and "become yourself." Therefore, parents need to teach their children well.And children — "you of tender years" — also have something to teach their parents, for learning is not a one-way street. Children should share their own dreams with their parents so that young and old can get to understand each otiier better.That said, one should not go too far. For some things are perhaps better left unsaid between parents and children. "Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you will cry." At such moments all that there is left to do is to look at one another and sigh, happy in each otiier's love.Part II Text A TextOrganization1. 1) The text begins with an anecdote/incident.2)His thoughts are mainly about different approaches to learning in China and the West.3)He winds up the text with a suggestion in die form of a question.1.

You can't accomplishyour goal of mastering the language unless you work at it for years. Well, itsounds as if I'm exaggerating the difficulties, but the fact is I'm only tellingthe truth.2)The principal is somewhat disappointed with the performance of the children.From what she has gathered, some of the teaching staff have neglected theirpupils. She has just announced that strict work regulations have been madeand that they apply to both Chinese and overseas teachers.3)The teacher-directed and the child-directed approaches to teaching artrepresent two extremes of opinion. Too many teacher-directed activitiescannot be expected to effectively assist children in learning because of therigid structure. On the other hand, too many child-directed activities maysee a curriculum that is totally unstructured and out of control. There arevalid reasons to believe a teacher-guided approach would be a superior way toguide children's development. This approach combines some form ofstructure with the child leading the direction.II.

Translate the passageThough how the English language came into existence remains a mystery to many people, linguists believe that English and most other European languages have descended from a common source: the Indo-European parent language. English was first spoken by the Anglo-Saxons who invaded England in the fifth century. They passed onto us the basic vocabulary of English. In over fifteen centuries of its development, English has enriched itself by massive borrowing. As British immigrants landed in America and established the United States as an independent nation, a new variety was added to the English language: American English. Though some people worry that the language is running out of control, many native speakers of English take pride in the tolerance of their language.。

Unit 1Key to ExercisesPart I Pre-Reading TaskScript for the recording:Ways of learning is the topic of this unit. It is also the topic of the song you are about to listen to, called Teach Your Children sung by Crosby, Stills and Nash.Teach Your ChildrenCrosby, Stills and NashYou, who are on the road,Must nave a code that you can live by.And so, become yourselr,Because the past is just a goodbye.Teach your cbildren well,Their lather's hell did slowly go by.And reed them on your dreams,The one they picks,the one you'll mow by.Don't you ever ash them why, ir they told you, you will cry, So just lookat them and sigh and know they love you.Appendix I - 93 -And you, oi tender years,Can't know the rears that your elders grew by.Ana so please help them with your youtb,They seek the truth before tbey can die.Teacb your parents well,Tbeir children's bell will slowly go by.And reed them on your dreams,Tbe one tbey picks,tbe one you'll know by.Don t you ever ask them why, ir tbey told you, you will cry, So justlook at them and sigh and know tbey love you.The first part of die song is about how parents can inspire their children through sharing with them their dreams, their hopes for a better life. It starts with advice on how you need a set of rules, "a code diat you can live by," to guide you on the road of life. Only then will you be able to fully realise all that is within you and "become yourself." Therefore, parents need to teach their children well.And children — "you of tender years" — also have something to teach their parents, for learning is not a one-way street. Children should share their own dreams with their parents so that young and old can get to understand each otiier better.That said, one should not go too far. For some things are perhaps better left unsaid between parents and children. "Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you will cry." At such moments all that there is left to do is to look at one another and sigh, happy in each otiier's love.Part II Text AText Organization1. 1) The text begins with an anecdote/incident.2)His thoughts are mainly about different approaches to learning in China and the West.3)He winds up the text with a suggestion in die form of a question.1.

You can't accomplish yourgoal of mastering the language unless you work at it for years. Well, it sounds as ifI'm exaggerating the difficulties, but the fact is I'm only telling the truth.2)The principal is somewhat disappointed with the performance of the children. Fromwhat she has gathered, some of the teaching staff have neglected their pupils. Shehas just announced that strict work regulations have been made and that they applyto both Chinese and overseas teachers.3)The teacher-directed and the child-directed approaches to teaching art representtwo extremes of opinion. Too many teacher-directed activities cannot be expected toeffectively assist children in learning because of the rigid structure. On the otherhand, too many child-directed activities may see a curriculum that is totallyunstructured and out of control. There are valid reasons to believe a teacher-guidedapproach would be a superior way to guide children's development. This approachcombines some form of structure with the child leading the direction.II.

Besides, learning by heart as many well-written essays as possible is also very important. Without an enormous store of good English writing in your head you cannot expressyourself freely in English. It is also helpful to summarize our experience as we go along, for in so doing, we can figure out which way of learning is more effective and will produce the most desirable result. As long as we keep working hard on it, we will in due course accomplish the task of mastering English.U2Text AA Life Full of RichesI. Vocabulary1.

To improve our English, it is critical to do more reading, writing, listening and speaking. Besides, learning by heart as many well-written essays as possible is also very important. Without an enormous store of good English writing in your head you cannot express yourself freely in English. It is also helpful to summarize our experience as we go along, for in so doing, we can figure out which way of learning is more effective and will produce the most desirable result. As long as we keep working hard on it, we will in due course accomplish the task of mastering English.
