问题     Most people can remember a time in their lives when they learned something almost by accident, that is, without consciously(有意识地) trying to learn it. Often this kind of learning happens when we are trying to learn something else. For example, many people learn a number of English words not by memorizing them or studying them directly, but by doing something they enjoy, like listening to popular songs that contain them. Similarly, some people learn words in Chinese or Japanese not by studying those languages directly, but by studying martial arts, such as kung fu or aikido, in which Chinese or Japanese terms are used. Foreign students in the United States often learn the system of measurement simply by having to shop and cook for themselves. Those activities require them to learn words like pound, gallon, inch and yard.
    Many educators believe that such a kind of learning, generally called content-based learning, is the best way to learn the rules of a system. Supporters of content-based learning argue that people can best understand and remember a system’s basic rules by coining upon them in the context of that system not by studying and memorizing them out of the context. Therefore, supporters of content-based learning feel that grammatical rules can best be mastered indirectly through reading and writing, rather than by mere memorization. Likewise, they feel that mathematical rules can best be learned by working out real-life problems where such rules are needed to find out the answers. In many cases, our own learning experiences may support the idea that we have a deeper understanding of rules we find out from context than of those memorized out of context.
