I was introduced to the concept of literacy animator in Oladumi Arigbede’s (1994)article on high illiteracy rates among women and school dropout rates among girls. According to Arigbede, literacy animators view their role as assisting in the self-liberating development of people in the world who are struggling for a more meaningful life. Animators are a family of deeply concerned and committed people whose gut-level rejection of mass human pauperization compels them to intervene on the side of the marginalized. Their motivation is not derived from a love of literacy as merely another technical life skill, and they accept that literacy is never culturally or ideologically neutral.
Arigbede writes from her experiences as an animator working with women and men in Nigeria. She believes that literacy animators have to make a clear choice about whose culture and whose ideology will be fostered among those with whom they work. Do literacy educators in the United States consider whether the instruction they pursue conflicts with their students’ traditional cultures or community, or fosters illiteracies in learners’ first or home languages or dialects and in their orality?
Some approaches to literacy instruction represent an ideology of individualism, control, and competition. Consider, for example, the difference in values conveyed and represented when students engage in choral reading versus the practice of having one student read out loud to the group. To identify as a literacy animator is to choose the ideology of "sharing, solidarity, love, equity, cooperation with and respect of both nature and other human beings". Literacy pedagogy that matches the animator ideology works on maintaining the languages and cultures of millions of minority children who at present are being forced to accept the language and culture of the dominant group. It might lead to assessment that examines the performance outcomes of a community of literacy learners and the social significance of their uses of literacy, as opposed to measuring what an individual can do as a reader and writer on a standardized test. Shor (1993)describes literacy animators as problem-posing, community-based, dialogic educators. Do our teacher-education textbooks on reading and language arts promote the idea that teachers should explore problems from a community-based dialogic perspective?
The author suggests that literacy educators in the U.S. in a way_____.
选项
A、promote students’ home languages
B、force students to accept their culture
C、teach nothing but reading and writing
D、consider literacy as of non-neutral nature
答案
A
解析
细节题。本题的解题点是第二段的最后一句话,理解了本句的意思就可以直接选出答案。本句的结构是:literacy educators(主语)+consider(谓语)+whether(从句引导词)+the instruction(从句主语)+con-flicts(从句谓语)……,or fosters(从句谓语)illiteracies in learners’first or home languages or dialectsand in their orality?可见fosters的主语是instruction“教育、指导”,另外fosters sb.in sth.意为“促进某人在什么方面的发展”,在这里的意思是:教育是否有利于文盲的本族语或方言的发展。所以正确答案是A选项。本题的难点就在于对长难句的结构分析和意义理解上。
