Harry had to get off his car and push it because . A. something was seriously wrong with it B. he had drunk too much again C. he was afraid to hit someone D. he was afraid to break the rules I Let children learn to judge their own work. A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected all the time. If being 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. Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other people’s. In the same way, children learn to work, run, whistle, ride a bicycle without being taught. They 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 for himself, let alone correct them. We do it all of him, we act as 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. Soon he becomes dependent on the teacher. Let him do it himself, let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants it. If it is a matter of right answers, as it may be in maths or science, give him the answer book. Let him correct his own papers. why should we teacher waste time on such work? Our job should be to help the child when he tells us he can’t find the way to get the right answer and let the children learn how to measure their own understanding. The idea that there is a lot of knowledge to be learnt at school and used for the rest of one’s life is out of date in a world as complicated and rapidly changing as ours. Anxious parents and teachers say, “But suppose they fail to learn something necessary, they will fail to get on in the world. Don’t worry, they will go out into the world and learn it. 查看更多

Everybody has one of those days when everything goes wrong. This is what happened to Harry.

He got up one morning very late because he had forgotten to wind up his alarm clock(闹钟). He tried to shave(刮脸)quickly and cut himself. When he got dressed he got blood all over his clean shirt, so he had to find another one. The only other shirt that was clean needed ironing(熨), so he ironed it. While he was ironing it, there was a knock at the door. It was the man to read the electricity meter(表). He showed him where the meter was, said good-bye and found that the iron had burnt a hole in his shirt. So he had to wear the one with the blood on it after all. By this time it was very late, so he decided he couldn’t go to work by bus. He telephoned for a taxi to take him to work. The taxi arrived and Harry got in and began to read the newspaper.

In another part of the town, a man had killed a woman with a knife and was seen to run away in a taxi. When Harry’s taxi stopped outside his office, a policeman happened to be standing there. He saw the blood on Harry’s shirt, and took him to the police station. He was kept till 3 o’clock in the afternoon before the police were sure that he was not the man they wanted.
