阅读填空 先通读下面的短文,然后根据短文内容,在文章后表格的空格内填入一个最恰当的单词。所填单词必须写在答题卡对应题号的横线上。每个空格只能填一个单词。
Politeness(礼貌) is a mark of civilization. The sooner children learn this, the better. In any case, a lot can be completed by a smile and good manners.
Like it or not, our adult lives will be consumed(消费,消耗) by the struggle for money, but we don’t make an effort to teach children how to manage it. So our schools have a duty to teach them this ability from the beginning.
If we agree that the use of education is to prepare us for life, then there is very little time to waste. So, while we can, we ought to try our best to teach children something really useful. Here is what our schools should teach.
We’re likely to accept something we are told, but that’s not what educated people do. Educated people are reasonable (理性的)and they look at facts. If our schools teach nothing else, they should at least teach critical(批判性的)thinking.
Children should learn to take care of their health. They should know that if they eat junk food(垃圾食品), they will become fat and unhealthy. They should be very clear about what happens to their bodies when they drink or smoke.
All of us are part of society. We have rights and duties. We ought to understand what they are. We have to know a little bit of our history and geography, because we need to have an environment in which to connect to the people around us.
How will we test students on these? We can’t. But that’s not a reason to avoid teaching what is important. Our schools should spend every moment they have telling this to our children: “This is life, this is what you are going to face, and this is how you deal with it.”
Title | Very Useful1. |
Introduction | Education should be a preparation for life. |
Advice | Important things should be taught in2. . |
Teaching topics | •How to behave politely •The basic skill of managing money •How to3. in a critical way •How to keep healthy/fit •The rights and responsibilities one has in 4._______ |
Conclusion | Children should be taught what5. is and how to deal with it. |
