Teaching children to read well from the start is the most important task of elementary schools. But relying on educators to approach this task correctly can be a great mistake. Many schools continue to employ instructional methods that have been proven ineffective. The staying power of the "look-say" or "whole-word" method of teaching beginning reading is perhaps the most flagrant example of this failure to instruct effectively.
The whole-word approach to reading stresses the meaning of words over the meaning of letters， thinking over decoding， developing a sight vocabulary of familiar words over developing the ability to unlock the pronunciation of unfamiliar words. It fits in with the self-directed，"learning how to learn" activities recommended by advocates of "open" classrooms and with the concept that children have to be developmentally ready to begin reading. Before 1963， no major publisher put out anything but these "Run-Spot-Run" readers.
However， in 1955， Rudolf Flesch touched off what has been called "the great debate" in beginning reading. In his best-seller Why Johnny Can"t Read， Flesch indicted the nation"s public schools for miseducating students by using the look-say method. He said——and more scholarly studies by Jeane Chall and Rovert Dykstra later confirmed——that another approach to beginning reading， founded on phonics， is far superior.
Systematic phonics first teaches children to associate letters and letter combinations with
sounds; it then teaches them how to blend these sounds together to make words. Rather than building up a relatively limited vocabulary of memorized words， it imparts a code by which the pronunciations of the vast majority of the most common words in the English language can be learned. Phonics does not devalue the importance of thinking about the meaning of words and sentences; it simply recognizes that decoding is the logical and necessary first step.
The author feels that counting on educators to teach reading correctly is_________. 查看材料
A. only logical and natural
B. the expected position
C. probably a mistake
D. merely effective instruction
"It wasn't clear how long children in the first year of life could retain a memory of an event," Liston says. We were interested in testing the hypothesis that neurological developments at the end of the first year and the beginning of the second would result in a significant Enhancement in this kind of memory.
Liston showed a simple demonstration to infants ages 9, 17, or 24 months old. The test results showed a huge difference between the test children Who had been 9 months old when they saw the first demonstration and those who had been older. "Whereas 9-month-olds don't I really remember a thing after four months, 17-and 24-month-olds do," Liston says. "Something is happening in the brain between 9 and 17 months old that enables children to encode these memories efficiently and in such a way that they can be retained and retrieved after a long period of time," Liston says. Researchers believe that changes in certain regions of the brain's frontal lobe and the hippocampus, which axe associated with memory retention and retrieval, drive the rapid expansion of childhood recall. Previous studies have shown that the frontal lobes in humans begin to mature during the last quarter of the first year of life.
Liston's work may help explain why adults can rarely remember anything from before their second birthday or so. Most people simply accept this "infant amnesia" as a fact of life. "But it's not clear why a 40-year-old has plenty of memories for something that happened 20 years ago, but a 20- year-old has basically no memories for something that happened when he was 2 or 3 ," Liston says. He suggests that the same brain mechanisms that were not yet able to encode long-term memories in 9-month-olds may also play some role in adults' inability to remember events of infancy. Researchers still need to look at other areas of cognition -- such as what role language ability plays in memory -- to really fully understand why people can' t remember anything that happened before 2--3 years of age. But one thing is clear: When l-year-old Snookums claims he doesn't remember breaking the heirloom chitin five months ago, he's almost surely telling the truth.
Conor Liston ______.
A．has only a vague understanding of infants' poor memory
B．has found something more about the origin of long-term recall
C．has detected the regions of the brain responsible for memory-processing
D．has established a theory about memory development
Ironing clothes is most hated because it is not a task that can be completed quickly or thoughtlessly. Each piece of clothing must be handled individually, so ironing a basket of laundry can take hours! After ironing a piece of clothing with great caution, which requires smoothing out the fabric, and following the seams, you need to place it on a hanger as soon as possible. If you do not follow these directions carefully, it might become wrinkled and you have to start over. Perhaps that is why ironing is not a favorite thing to do. It calls for extreme attention to detail from beginning to end.
Another household job that many people dislike is washing dishes. Of course, some people claim that this work is no longer a problem because we have dishwashers now! However, no one would argue that dishes, silverware, and especially pots and pans washed in a dishwasher don't come out as clean as they do when washed by hand. For this reason, many of us continue to wash our dishes by hand, but we are not necessarily happy doing it. Cleaning dishes is a job that not only takes a lot of energy but also requires the patience to wash and dry them. In addition, unlike ironing clothes, washing dishes is a thing that usually must be done every day. I don't know how Cinderella felt about this particular task, but I believe that most people hate it as much as I do.
For Cinderella, doing household work is ______.
A．all obligation
B．a compulsion
C．an assignment
D．a burden
Getting a Chinese visa was easy enough. The Mongolian embassy (大使馆) seemed a bit unprepared for me, or in fact any other tourist, wanting to visit the country in winter and it took half an hour of knocking at the door before I got an answer. The Mongolian visa, however, has a map of the country in the background that should come in handy if I get lost out on the grassland.
It was getting a Russian visa that had me wondering if I'd ever be able to leave. The requirements for the visa, especially for the trip that ! plan to take, were a mountain of paperwork. I was required to prove, for example, where and when I plan on staying in each city and what train I plan to catch between cities.
I've spent a lot of time preparing for this trip, but ! still have no idea what to expect on this journey. The planning and packing has taken my mind off any worries I have so now everything is ready and I just want to get going. I'm sure I will see some interesting people and see some wonderful sights, and the sense of the unknown makes it all the more exciting.
How do the writer's friends feel about the delay of his trip？
A．Grateful.
B．Impatient.
