For more than 40 years, a controlling insight in my educational philosophy has been the recognition that no one has ever been—no one can be—educated in school or college.
(46)
That would be the case if our schools and colleges were at their very best, which they certainly are not, and even if the students were among the best and the brightest as well as conscientious in the application of their powers.
The reason is simply that youth itself—immaturity—is an unconquerable obstacle to becoming educated. Schooling is for the young. Education comes later, usually much later. (47)
The very best thing for our schools to do is to prepare the young for continued learning in later life by giving them the skills of learning and the love of it. Our schools and colleges are not doing that now, but that is what they should be doing.
(48)
To speak of an educated young person or of a wise young person, rich in the understanding of basic ideas and issues, is as much a contradiction in terms as to speak of a round square.
The young can be prepared for education in the years to come, but only mature men and women can become educated, beginning the process of their 40s and 50s and reaching some amount of genuine insight, sound judgment and practical wisdom after they have turned 60.
This is what no high school or college graduates know or can understand. As a matter of fact, most of their teachers do not seem to know it. (49)
In their obsession with covering ground and in the way in which they test or examine their students, they certainly do not act as if they understood that they were only preparing their students for education in later life rather than trying to complete it within the realms of their institutions.
There is, of course, some truth in the ancient insight that awareness of ignorance is the beginning of wisdom. But, remember, it is just the beginning. From there on one has to do something about it. (50)
And to do it intelligently one must know something of its causes and cures—why adults need education and what, if anything, they can do about it.
选项
答案
老师们埋头教书,沉迷于测试学生的方式方法,他们这样做的确不像是明白他们只是为学生今后的继续教育做好准备,而不是努力在校园内就完成对学生的教育。
解析
这个句子的句架是In...and in...,they certainly do not act as if they understood...。主句为they certainly do not act,as if 引导的是方式状语从句,在从句中that引导的从句作understood的宾语。词汇方面,obsession n."执意;着迷,困扰"。例如:the Western obsession with dieting(西方对节食减肥的着迷)。Rather than"与其…不如…,不是…(而是)"。例如:He is a writer than a teacher.(与其说他是教师,不如说他是作家)。 realm"领域;范畴"。例如:the realm of science(科学领域)。
