【译文】
如果新的学习方式是要帮助那些最需要它们的人,那么政策制定者应该力求实行更加根本性的举措。 因为教育是一项公共事业,其益处会延及整个社会,所以政府要发挥重要作用——不仅要增加投入,还得把钱花得明智。
终身学习始于学校。一般来说,教育不应该狭隘地职业化。课程应当教会孩子们如何学习和思考。 注重“元认知”将帮助他们在日后的生活中更善于学习技能。
但最大的改变是让所有成年人都能常态化地进行学习。一个方法是向国民发放代金券,让他们可以用来支付培训费用。新加坡就有这样的“个人学习账户”;该国向所有25岁以上的国民发放资金,可用于学习500种经认可的课程中的任意课程。 到目前为止,每个国民只拥有几百美元的资金,但这才刚刚开始。
由纳税人付费的课程有浪费的风险。但业界可以提供帮助,引导人们学习业界所需的技能,并和慕课及大学院校合作设计相关课程。公司也可以鼓励员工学习。电信公司AT&T希望其员工具备数字化技能,
该公司每年支出3,000万美元用来补贴员工的学费。工会可以发挥积极作用,组织终身学习,尤其是帮助那些小公司的员工或自由职业者,这些人不大可能获得公费培训(的机会)。在英国,一个工会组织的培训项目同时得到了政党和民众的支持。
要让所有这些培训是值得的,政府需要降低许可要求以及其他阻碍新人入行的门槛。例如,与其要求某个人有300小时的实习经验来获得做洗发工的资格,田纳西州应该让理发店自行决定雇谁最好。
并非每个人都能成功找到正确方法应对正在变化的就业市场。受技术颠覆影响最大的是那些蓝领工人,其中很多人拒绝在类似医疗护理这样快速发展的领域里从事不那么“有男子气概”的工作。但是,若要将落伍的劳动力人数控制到最少,那么所有成年人都必须能够有机会获得灵活而又负担得起的培训。在19世纪和20世纪,教育有了令人震惊的进步。今天的抱负应当不逊当年。
真题展示
[课标全国Ⅱ2020·B篇] Some parents will buy any high-tech toy if they think it will help their child, but researchers said puzzles help children with math-related skills.
Psychologist Susan Levine, an expert on mathematics development in young children at the University of Chicago, found children who play with puzzles between ages 2 and 4 later develop better spatial skills.Puzzle play was found to be a significant predictor of cognition (认知) after controlling for differences in parents' income, education and the amount of parent talk, Levine said.
The researchers analyzed video recordings of 53 child-parent pairs during everyday activities at home and found children who play with puzzles between 26 and 46 months of age have better spatial skills when assessed at 54 months of age.
“The children who played with puzzles performed better than those who did not, on tasks that assessed their ability to rotate (旋转) and translate shapes,” Levine said in a statement.
The parents were asked to interact with their children as they normally would, and about half of the children in the study played with puzzles at one time.Higher-income parents tended to have children play with puzzles more frequently, and both boys and girls who played with puzzles had better spatial skills.However, boys tended to play with more complex puzzles than girls, and the parents of boys provided more spatial language and were more active during puzzle play than the parents of girls.
The findings were published in the journal Developmental Science.
1.In which aspect do children benefit from puzzle play ( )
B
A.Building confidence. B.Developing spatial skills.
C.Learning self-control. D.Gaining high-tech knowledge.
[解析] 细节理解题。根据第二段第一句中的 children who play with puzzles… later develop better spatial skills可知,在2至4岁时经常接触拼图游戏的孩子未来会有更好的空间思维能力。故选B项。
【语篇导读】本文介绍了一项研究发现,即在2至4岁时经常接触拼图游戏的孩子未来会有更好的空间思维能力。
2.What did Levine take into consideration when designing her experiment?( )
C
A.Parents' age. B.Children's imagination.
C.Parents' education. D.Child-parent relationship.
[解析] 细节理解题。根据第二段第二句中的 after controlling for differences in parents' income, education and the amount of parent talk 可知,莱文在做研究时考虑了父母的收入、受教育程度以及亲子对话的多少等因素。故选C项。
3.How do boys differ from girls in puzzle play ( )
D
A.They play with puzzles more often. B.They tend to talk less during the game.
C.They prefer to use more spatial language. D.They are likely to play with tougher puzzles.
[解析] 细节理解题。根据第五段第三句中的However, boys tended to play with more complex puzzles than girls可知,相比女孩,男孩倾向于挑战更为复杂的拼图游戏。D项中的tougher一词对应句中的more complex,意为“更难的”。故选D项。
4.What is the text mainly about ( )
B
A.A mathematical method. B.A scientific study. C.A woman psychologist. D.A teaching program
[解析] 主旨大意题。本文主要围绕心理学家苏珊·莱文的一项研究而展开,具体介绍了该研究的对象、方法及发现,最后还提到该研究发表在一本学术刊物上。故选B项。
【微技能】如何归纳文章主旨
由于文章体裁不同,文章主旨呈现的方式与明确程度也各异,在做英语阅读时,应灵活应对。
一般而言,文章主旨通过主旨句甚至主旨段呈现。主旨句一般在文章开头,如新闻类文章,常开门见山表达主旨,以引起读者关注;当然也有主旨句在文章尾段以概括总结性的句式呈现,比如议论文,文章主旨往往以结论方式出现在文末。只要找到主旨句,即可提炼出文章主旨。
有些文章没有明显的主旨句,那就需要进行篇章结构分析,找出每一小段的主题,进行对比总结,梳理行文逻辑,找到语段间的内在联系和逻辑结构,从整体上把握文章,从而归纳整篇文章的主旨。这种文章往往话题严肃而深刻,篇章逻辑严谨,不可仅从一两个关键词或中心句就上升到文章主旨,以偏概全。
如本篇的第4题,虽然文中没有出现scientific study,但根据文章中反复出现的researchers一词及全文内容可以得出,本文主要讲了一项科学研究。
【长难句分析】Psychologist Susan Levine, an expert on mathematics development in young children at the University of Chicago, found children who play with puzzles between ages 2 and 4 later develop better spatial skills.
句式分析:该句主干部分为Susan Levine found children develop better spatial skills;句中an expert on mathematics development… the University of Chicago为Susan Levine的同位语;who引导定语从句,先行词为children,关系词在从句中作主语。
句意:心理学家苏珊·莱文是一位在芝加哥大学从事幼儿数学能力发展研究的专家。她发现在2至4岁时经常接触拼图游戏的孩子未来会拥有更好的空间思维能力。
