The question of what children learn, and how they should learn it, is continually being debated and re-debated. Nobody dares any longer to defend the old system, the learning of lessons parrot-fashion, the grammar-with-a-whip system, which was good enough for our grandparents. The theories of modern psychology have stepped into argue that we must understand the needs of children. Children are not just small adults, they are children who must be respected as such.
Well, you may say, this is as it should be a good idea. But think further, what happens? "Education" becomes the responsibility not of teachers but of psychologists. What happens then? Teachers worry too much about the psychological implications of their lessons, and forget about the subjects themselves. If a child dislikes a lesson, the teacher feels that it is his fault, not the child’s. So teachers worry whether history is relevant to modern young children. And do they dare to recount stories about violent battles? Or will this make the children themselves violent? Can they tell their classes about children of different races, or will this encourage racial hatred? Why teaching children to write grammatical sentences? Verbal expression is better sums? Arithmetic? No. Real-life mathematical situations are more understandable.
You see, you can go too far. Influenced by educational theories, who have nothing better to do than write book about their ideas, teachers leave their teacher-training colleges filled with grand, psychological ideas about children and their needs. They make elaborate, sophisticated preparations and try out their modern standard on the long-suffering children. Since one modern method rapidly replaces another, the floor kids will have had a good bellyful by the time they leave school. Frequently the modern methods are so sophisticated that they fail to be understood by the teachers, let alone the children.
According to the passage, the author’s attitude toward educational theorists is______.
选项
A、approval
B、admiring
C、unbiased
D、critical
答案
D
解析
态度题。作者对教育理论家的态度从第三段第二句“由于受到只会著书立说的教育理论家的影响……”可以推断出来。approval意为“赞同的,钦佩的”,unbiased“无偏见的”,显然都不符合文意。critical意为“批判的”,才是正确答案。
