Text A
哈佛大學教育學教授霍華德?加德納回憶其中國之行,闡述他對中西方不同的學習方式的看法。
中國式的學習風格
霍華德?加德納
1987年春,我和妻子埃倫帶著我們18個月的兒子本杰明在繁忙的中國東部城市南京住了一個月,同時考察中國幼兒園和小學的藝術教育情況。然而,我和埃倫獲得的有關中蓁教育觀念差異的最難忘的體驗并非來自課堂,而是來自我們在南京期間寓居的金陵飯店的大堂。
我們的房門鑰匙系在一塊標有房間號的大塑料板上。酒店鼓勵客人外出時留下鑰匙,可以交給服務員,也可以從一個槽口塞入鑰匙箱。由于口子狹小,你得留神將鑰匙放準位置才塞得進去。
本杰明愛拿著鑰匙走來走去,邊走邊用力搖晃著。他還喜歡試著把鑰匙往槽口里塞。由于他還年幼,不太明白得把鑰匙放準位置才成,因此總塞不進去。本杰明一點也不在意。他從鑰匙聲響中得到的樂趣大概跟他偶爾把鑰匙成功地塞進槽口而獲得的樂趣一樣多。
我和埃倫都滿不在乎,任由本杰明拿著鑰匙在鑰匙的槽口鼓搗。他的探索行為似乎并無任何害處。但我很快就觀察到一個有趣的現象。飯店里任何一個中國工作人員若在近旁,都會走過來看著本杰明,見他初試失敗,便都會試圖幫忙。他們會輕輕握緊本杰明的手,直接將它引向鑰匙的槽口,進行必要的重新定位,并幫他把鑰匙插入槽口。然后那位“老師”會有所期待地對著我和埃倫微笑,似乎等著我們說聲謝謝——偶爾他會微微皺眉,似乎覺得我倆沒有盡到當父母的責任。
我很快意識到,這件小事與我們在中國要做的工作直接相關:考察兒童早期教育 (尤其是藝術教育)的方式,揭示中國人對創造性活動的態度。因此,不久我就在與中國教育工作者討論時談起了鑰匙槽口一事。
兩種不同的學習方式
我的中國同行,除了少數幾個人外,對此事的態度與金陵飯店工作人員一樣!奔热淮笕酥涝趺窗谚匙塞進槽口——這是處理槽口一事的最終目的, 既然孩子還很年幼,還沒有靈巧到可以獨自完成要做的動作,讓他自己瞎折騰會有什么好處呢?他很有可能會灰心喪氣發脾氣——這當然不是所希望的結果。為什么不教他怎么做呢?他會高興,他還能早些學會做這件事,進而去學做更復雜的事,如開門,或索要鑰匙——這兩件事到時候同樣可以 (也應該)示范給他看。
我倆頗為同情地聽著這一番道理,解釋道,首先,我們并不在意本杰明能不能把鑰匙塞進鑰匙的槽口。他玩得開心,而且在探索,這兩點才是我們真正看重的。但關鍵在于,在這個過程中,我們試圖讓本杰明懂得,一個人是能夠很好地自行解決問題的。這種自力更生的精神是美國中產階級最重要的一條育兒觀。如果我們向孩子演示該如何做某件事——把鑰匙塞進鑰匙的槽口也好,畫只雞或是彌補某種錯誤行為也好——那他就不太可能自行想方設法去完成這件事。從更廣泛的意義上說,他就不太可能—共如美國人那樣——將人生視為一系列的情境,在這些情境中,一個人必須學會獨立思考,學會獨立解決問題,進而學會發現需要創造性地加以解決的新問題。
把著手教
回想起來,當時我就清楚地意識到,這件事正是體現了問題的關鍵之所在——而且不僅僅是一種意義上的關鍵之所在。這件事表明了我們兩國在教育和藝術實踐上的重要差異。
那些善意的中國旁觀者前來幫助本杰明時,他們不是簡單地像我可能會做的那樣笨拙地或是猶猶豫豫地把他的手往下推。相反,他們極其熟練地、溫和地把他引向所要到達的確切方向。我逐漸認識到,這些中國人不是簡單地以一種陳舊的方式塑造、引導本杰明的行為:他們是在恪守中國傳統,把著手教,教得本杰明自己會愉快地要求再來斗次。
學習應通過不間斷的精心塑造與引導而得以實現,這一觀念同樣適用于藝術。我們觀看了孩子們在教室里學習藝術的情景,他們的嫻熟技藝令我們驚訝。年僅5、6歲的孩子就帶著成人的那種技巧與自信在畫花、畫魚和動物;9歲:10歲的小書法家寫出的作品滿可以在博物館展示。有一次去兩位小藝術家的家里參觀,我們從孩子的父母處得知,他們每天練習數小時以完善他們的技藝。
創造力第一?
從對創造力的態度來說,優先次序似乎是顛倒了:西方的年輕人先是大膽創新,然后逐漸深諳傳統;而中國的年輕人則幾乎離不開傳統,但是,隨著時間的'推移,他們同樣可能發展到具有創新的境界。
美國人的立場可以概括起來這么說,我們比中國人更重視創新和自立。我們兩種文化的差異也可以從我們各自所懷的憂慮中顯示出來。中國老師擔心,如果年輕人不及早掌握技藝,就有可能一輩子掌握不了;另一方面,他們并不同樣地急于促進創造力的發展。美國教育工作者則擔心,除非從一開始就發展創造力,不然創造力就有可能永不再現;而另一方面,技藝可于日后獲得。
但我并不想夸大其辭。無論在過去還是在當今,中國在科學、技術和藝術革新方面都展示了巨大的創造力。而西方的創新突破則有被夸大的危險。如果仔細審視任何一項創新,其對以往成就的依賴則都顯而易見(“站在巨人肩膀之上”的現象)。
然而,假定我這里所說的反差是成立的,而培養技藝與創造力兩者都是值得追求的目標,那么重要的問題就在于:我們能否從中美兩個極端中尋求一種更好的教育方式,它或許能在創造力與基本技能這兩極之間獲得某種較好的平衡?

As long as we keep working hard on it, we will in due course accomplish the task of mastering English.
Text B
設法教育孩子珍惜錢財會是件難事。然而,大衛?歐文說,方法也很簡單——開個銀行就行。說來容易做起來難?其實,這事并沒聽上去那么難,你讀一讀戴夫第一國家銀行的故事就知道了。
孩子與金錢
大衛. 歐文
當家長覺得該教孩子們懂得如何對待金錢的時候,他們通常先為孩子開個儲蓄賬戶。剛開始的時候,孩子們頗感興趣,因為他們想自己什么也不干銀行還會付給他們錢,,可當他們明白利率小得很,而且父母也無意讓他們動用本金時,他們的熱情一下子就冷卻了。對一個孩子來說,一個儲蓄賬戶只不過是一個吞沒其生日禮金支票的黑洞。
孩子:“奶奶給了我25美金!”
家長:“太棒了。咱們把支票直接存到你的賬戶上去!
孩子:“可這錢她是給我的!我要用!”
家長:“噯,錢還是你的嘛。你只不過是要把錢放在銀行里,好讓它增多。”
孩子(狐疑地):“你說‘增多’是什么意思?”
家長:“哦,要是你把這25美金在銀行里放一年,銀行就會付給你75美分。要是你連本帶息在銀行里再放一年,銀行會再付給你75美分,另加2.5美分。這叫做復利。這錢能幫你上大學! ’
這類儲蓄計劃的主要缺陷在于,孩子本人一無所獲。上大學還不知要過多少年,他們或許會想他們寧愿呆在家里。實際上,這類計劃的真正目的通常不是促進儲蓄而是限制消費。(1)孩子們在糖果、電子游戲上的花費之大令家長們十分震驚(或者更確切地說,孩子們的超支行為似乎是在竭力仿效父母、這令家長們十分震驚),于是家長便設法把孩子們的錢存起來不讓用。毋怪乎孩子們很快就認定,大額錢款不是實實在在的錢,有了現錢要么趕緊花掉,要么藏在抽屜里。
為了避免我的兩個孩子產生這——問題,我開設了自己的銀行,名叫戴大第一國家銀行。我用記錄自己支票簿使用情況的同—個電腦程序給每個孩子開了一個賬戶。因為我希望孩子存款增長的速度足以引起他們的注意,便給他們一個誘人的利率——月息5厘。(2)以復利計算,年息達到70%以上。(不,我不接受外來存款。)零花錢在每月第一天自動存入。孩子們也可以把別的錢存進來,想存就存,想取就取。
戴夫銀行經營了4年,一下子就把我的兩個孩子變成了熱心的儲蓄者。至今我兒子在車里找到零錢仍會來找我說, “今天就把這個上賬!眱蓚孩子的存款增長很快,兩年之后,我不得不將月利率降至3厘。我宣布調低利率時兩個孩子反對,可當我解釋說供求法則同樣適用于貨幣供應后,兩人嚴肅地點頭贊同。兩個孩子幫我一起?計算他們的利息——這可是學習計算平均值與百分比的頗為有用的一課。(3)他們使用自己的資金我不加任何限制,不作任何詢問,我還根據要求隨時提供打印的賬單。
高利率并非戴大銀行惟一誘人之處。在孩子看來同樣重要的是,他們的存款屬于他們自己。他們存錢便會獲利;他們想花錢也用不著獲得許可。孩子對自己的錢沒有自主權,就沒有什么東西激勵他們不去伸手要錢,不把到手的錢花個光。 ?
幫助孩子們成為理性消費者的方法是,交給他們更多的,而不是更少的自主權。我們去度假前,我通常額外多給孩子們20塊錢左右存在他們賬戶上。我告訴他們,他們可以在我們出發前用這筆額外的錢買T恤衫、存起來,或者花掉,或隨便他們派什么別的用場——但在度假期間,他們就不會從我這兒再拿到任何額外的零用錢了(根據慣例被認為是度假享受的共同消費除外,如糖果、冰淇淋、電影票等)。由于他們花費的任何一筆錢都是他們自己的而不是我的,他們出手時就很謹慎。兩年前的一個夏天,在瑪莎葡萄園的一家紀念晶商店,我兒子一聲不響地仔細察看那些不起眼的商品,他的一個朋友則吵著讓父母花5美金買了一把玩具槍,可幾乎還沒等我們回到車上,槍就壞了。我兒子最后花了33美分買了個未打開的空心晶球,后來他用榔頭把它砸了開來——我看這錢花得值得。要是他花的是我的而不是他自己的錢,毫無疑問,他肯定也會要買一把玩具槍的。
兒童是天生的資本家。只要給予足夠的自由活動余地,他們很快就會成為精明的理財者。如果家長的理財教育失敗,那往往是因為他們出于自身的原因把存錢弄得似乎既痛苦又無聊。金錢是有趣的,而且幾乎完全是不講自明的。(4)教育孩子們看問題要有長遠目光的惟一途徑,是讓孩子們近期內便能嘗到某種甜頭,從而激勵他們去那樣做。

Part I Pre-Reading Task
Script 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 Children
Crosby, Stills and Nash
You, 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 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,
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 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 mo?ments 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 Text Organization
1. 1) The text begins with an anecdote/incident.
2) His thoughts are mainly about different approaches to learning in China and the West.
3) The end winds up the text with a suggestion in die form of a question.
Points for Comparison/Contrast Chinese Americans
1) ways to learn to accomplish a task show a child how to do something, or teach by holding his hand teach children that they should rely on themselves for solutions to problems
94 - Appendix I
2) attitudes to creativity and skills give greater priority to de?veloping skills at an early age, believing creativity can be promoted over time put more emphasis on fos?tering creativity in young children, thinking skills can be picked up later

5) initial 6) phenomena
7) attached 8) make up for
9) is awaiting 10) exception
11) not... in the least 12)

13) working on 14) in due course
15) emerged
1) There is a striking contrast between the standard of living in the north of the country and
the south.
2) Natural fiber is said to be superior to synthetic fiber.
3) The city's importance as a financial center has evolved slowly.
4) His nationality is not relevant to whether he is a good lawyer.
5) The poems by a little-known sixteenth-century Italian poet have found their way into some English magazines.
3. 1) Chinese isn't a subject that can be picked up in a month. You can't accomplish your goal of mastering the language unless you work at it for years. Well, it sounds as if I'm exag?gerating the difficulties, but the fact is I'm only telling the 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 their pupils. She has just announced that strict work regulations have been made and that they apply to both Chinese and 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 effectively assisLchildren in learning because of the rigid structure. On the other hand, too many child-directed activities may see a curriculum that is totally unstructured and out of con?trol. There are valid reasons to believe a teacher-guided approach would be a superior way
Appendix I - 95 -
to guide children's development. This approach combines some form of structure with the child leading the direction.
