Question

Let children learn to judge their own. A child who learns to talk does not learn by being corrected all the time; if corrected too much, he will stop talking. He notices a thousand times a day the difference between the language he uses and the language those around him use. Little by little, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other people’s, in the same way, children learn to do all the other things without being taught—to walk, run, climb, ride a bicycle—compare their own performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed changes. But in school we never give a child a chance to find out his mistakes if we thought that he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to. Let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants it, what this word says, what the answer is to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or not. If it is a matter of right answers, as it may be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book. Let him correct his own papers. Why should we teachers waste time in doing such work? Our job should be to help the child when he tells us that he can’t find the way to get their own understanding, how to know what they know or do not know.

【解析】文章討論的是如何教育孩子學習以及其他技能的方法。

1.推理題。根據(jù)2,3,4,行He notices a thousand times a day the difference between the language he uses and the language those around him use. Little by little, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other people’s可知他們是模仿別人做做，并做出改變，通過這樣做可以學習的到技能。

2.推理題。根據(jù)Let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants it可知A正確，是讓孩子們相互學習。

3.推理題。根據(jù)But in school we never give a child a chance to find out his mistakes if we thought that he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to.可知老師經(jīng)常不給學生機會自己發(fā)現(xiàn)錯誤，而經(jīng)常是老師指出錯誤。所以C符合要求。

4.推理題。根據(jù)文章倒數(shù)4,5行If it is a matter of right answers, as it may be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book.可知學習說話和學習騎車和學習其他技能是一樣的。
