Imagine a school that expected its students to become literate(有读写能力的) without any

Imagine a school that expected its students to become literate(有读写能力的) without any formal instruction. Most parents would be alarmed by such an approach, which would leave their children confused and with gaps in their understanding. This however has been the philosophy on character development in many of our schools. Why is the development of character seen as somehow different from the other skills that we teach?

Of course there will always be learning by osmosis(耳濡目染)in any school, but as a teacher and primary school head I have found that a child;s moral literacy is strengthened when thy acquire the building blocks of good character such as consideration, courage and honor: qualities which are commonly known as virtue(美德).

I personally find that exploring a virtue over a two-week period provides a simple and effective program that allows for the creative input of both teacher and student and a chance for the virtue to embed(使融入)itself. Once a lesson on a virtue such as honesty has been completed we need to allow time for children to practice this concept just as would be the case with fractions or verbs. Allowing children to role play a situation such as making up excuses to cover a mistake can be enormously interesting, and the drama can be frozen allowing the characters to be questioned about their feelings and motives. It;s also a safe way for children to experience for themselves how a lie usually goes out of control.

Our role as educators is also to look for opportunities to help our students as they attempt to strengthen their characters. When something goes wrong we guide the young person to the virtue that will prevent it from happening again. For instance, when am student thoughtlessly disturbs the calm atmosphere of the library, instead of a response such as,that was really disrespectful and selfish of you!; we draw out from them the required virtue;When you;re walking through the library, what virtues do you need to use?

1.Which of the following is the main idea of this passage?()

A、 Teaching morals and values has been a frequently discussed topic in the past few years.

B、 The author and his staff embed virtues into lessons and school life to encourage character development in children.

C、Kids throughout the population face the same needs, the same challenges, and the same realities in their lives.

2. We can infer from the first paragraph that ().

A、there tends to be disagreement about what character education is

B、most parents are not satisfied with the teaching methods adopted in schools

C、 the approach to character education is generally considered different from the approaches to other skills

3. The word philosophy; in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to ().

A、study

B、subject

C、viewpoint

4.The author is a ().

A、teacher

B、librarian

C、reporter

5.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as a way to build character in children?()

A、Story readings and discussions.

B、Osmosis.

C、Taking every opportunity to teach character.

The potential of closed-circuit television and other electronic teaching tools is so great
that it is inspiring to imagine "the school of tomorrow". Televised lesson will be given in a central building having perhaps four or five master studios. The lesson will be carried out into classrooms all over a city, or even an entire country. After a televised lesson has been given, the classroom teacher will take over for the all-important "follow-up" period. The students will ask any troublesome questions, and difficult points will be cleared up through discussion. The teacher in the classroom will have additional electronic tools. On the teachers desk, the traditional bright red apple will have been replaced by a multiple-control panel (控制板) and magnetic tape players. The tape machines will run prerecorded lessons which pupils will follow by headphones. The lesson will be specifically connected closely to the students levels of ability. For instance, while the class as a whole studies history, each student will receive an individual history lesson directed to his particular level of ability. Should questions arise, the students will be able to talk directly to the teacher on individual "intercoms" (对讲装置) without disturbing the rest of the class. In this way, the teacher will be able to conduct as many as three classes at the same time.

The closed-circuit television will probably carry lessons to______.

A.only a single classroom in the school

B.all the schools with classrooms

C.all the classrooms in the world

D.all the classrooms in a city or a country

Lateral thinking (横向思维),first described by Edward de Bono in 1967, is just a few years

Lateral thinking (横向思维),first described by Edward de Bono in 1967, is just a few years older than Edwards son. You might imagine that Caspar was raised to be an adventurous thinker, but the de Bono name was so famous, Caspars parents worried that any time he would say something bright at school, his teachers might snap (不耐烦地说), "Where do you get that idea from?" "We had to be careful and not overdo it," Edward admits. Now Caspar is at Oxford—which once looked unlikely because he is also slightly dyslexic (诵读困难). In fact, when he was applying to Oxford, none of his school teachers thought he had a chance. "So then we did several thinking sessions," his father says, "using my techniques and, when he went up for the exam, he did extremely well. " Soon after, Edward de Bono decided to write his latest book, Teach Your Child How to Think, in which he transforms the thinking skills he developed for brainstorming businessmen into informal exercises for parents and children to share. Thinking is traditionally regarded as something executed in a logical sequence, and everybody knows that children arent very logical. So isnt it an uphill battle, trying to teach them to think? "You know," Edward de Bono says, "if you examine peoples thinking, it is quite unusual to find faults of logic. But the faults of perception are huge! Often we think ineffectively because we take too limited a view. " Teach Your Child How to Think offers lessons in perception improvement, of clearly seeing the implications of something you are saying and of exploring the alternatives.

What is true about Caspar?

A.He is Edward"s son.

B.He is an adventurous thinker.

C.He first described lateral thinking.

D.He is often scolded by his teacher.
