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 byoneself.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 yearsold 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 strikea better balance between the poles of creativity and basic skills.Text OrganizationWorking On Your Own1) The text begins with an anecdote.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 the form of a question.2. Chinese1) Show a child how to do something, or tech by holding the hand2) Give greater priority to developing skills at an early age, believing that creativity can be promoted over time Americans1) Teach children that they should rely on themselves for solutions to problems2) Put more emphasis on fostering creativity in young children, thinking skills can be picked up laterLanguage Sense Enhancement(1) Summarizing(2) value originality and independence(3) contrast between(4) in terms of(5) harbor(6) fearful(7) comparable(8) promote creativity(9) emerge(10) picked up Language Focus VocabularyI1) insert2) on occasion3) investigate4) In retrospect5) initial6) phenomena7) attached8) make up for9) is awaiting10) not; in the least11) promote12) emerged1) a striking contrast between the standards of living in the north of the country and the south.2) is said to be superior to synthetic fiber.3) as a financial center has evolved slowly.4) is not relevant to whether he is a good lawyer.5) by a little-known sixteen-century Italian poet have found their way into some English magazines.1) be picked up; can’t accomplish; am exaggerating2) somewhat; the performance; have neglected; they apply to3) assist; On the other hand; are valid; a superior II1) continual2) continuous3) continual4) continuous1) principal2) principal3) principle4) principles5) principalIII1. themselves2. himself/herself3. herself/by herself/on her own4. itself5. ourselves6. yourself/by yourself/on your own Comprehensive ExercisesI. cloze(1) contrast(2) exaggerating(3) priority(4) on the other hand(5) promoting(6) pick up(7) assist(8) accomplish(9) occasion(10) neglecting(11) worthwhile(12) superior0-(2) perform(3) facing(4) competent(5) equipped(6) designed(7) approach(8) rest(9) definitely(10) qualityII. translation(1) It takes an enormous amount of courage to make a departure from the tradition.(2) Tom used to be very shy, but this time he was boldenough to give a performance in front of a large audience.(3) Many educators think it desirable to foster the creative spirit in the child at an early age.(4) Assuming this painting really is a masterpiece, do you think it’s worthwhile to buy it?(5) If the data is statistically valid, it will throw light on the problem we are investigating.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.Unit2 ValuesPart II Reading TaskComprehensionContent QuestionPair Work1.

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。

The main purpose of a textbook is to assist students in understanding specific subjects and to provide them with the necessary information and knowledge related to those subjects. Textbooks often present information in a structured and organized manner, making it easier for students to comprehend and learn.2. Textbooks typically contain chapters with clear headings and subheadings, making it simple to locate and access relevant informationquickly. They also often feature diagrams, illustrations, and charts to aid visual learners in understanding complex concepts.3. Many textbooks include exercises and assignments to help students apply and reinforce what they have learned. These activities may include multiple-choice questions, fill-in-the-blank exercises, and essay prompts.4. Additionally, textbooks often provide summaries and review sections at the end of each chapter or unit, allowing students to recap and consolidate their understanding of the material. These summaries can be particularly helpful when preparing for exams or writing research papers.Unit 3: RelationshipsExercise 1: Vocabulary in Context1. honesty2. compromise3. loyalty4. patience5. forgiveness6. understanding7. communication8. respect9. support10. trustExercise 2: Reading Comprehension1. The key to a successful relationship is effective communication. Both partners must be open and honest with each other, expressing their thoughts and feelings clearly. Good communication helps build trust, as it demonstrates a willingness to be vulnerable and share one's true self.2. Trust is another vital component of a healthy relationship. Without trust, there can be no genuine intimacy. Trust is built over time through consistent actions and words that align with one's promises and commitments.3. Loyalty is also crucial. Being loyal means standing by your partner's side and supporting them through thick and thin.

While we should be careful to avoid the difference, they do appear to exist. In China, for example, greater is given to developing skills at an early age.

The idea is that the rich don’t accumulate wealth in order to it. Rather they accumulate wealth in order to display it, and their happiness is by their neighbors’ envy. As a result, the country finds itself in the grips of a “luxury fever”- families with incomes of $50,000 try to emulate the consumption of those with $70,000, who in turn try to emulate those with $140,000, and so on.It’s just common sense. It’s impossible for a piece of paper like money to make you happy. Instead, what makes people happy is the feeling of or power money brings.A recent survey that those from the Forbes list of the 400 richest Americans and the Maasai of East Africa are almost satisfied.
