Content Question

1.







They
were
studying
arts
education
in
Chinese
kindergartens
and
elementary schools in Nanjing.

2. Their
18-month-old
son
Benjamin
was
fond
of
trying
to
place
the
key
into
the slot of the key box during their stay at the Jinling Hotel.

3. They would come over to watch Benjamin and then try to teach him how
to do it properly.

4. Because he realized that this anecdote was directly relevant to their
assigned tasks in China: to investigate early childhood education and to throw
light on Chinese attitudes toward creativity.

5. Most of them displayed the same attitude as the staff at the Jinling
Hotel.

6. He emphasized that the most important thing is to teach the child that

on can solve a problem effectively by oneself.

7.







He
means
that
this
incident
pointed
to
important
differences
in
educational and artistic practices between China and the USA.

8. The manner in which the Chinese staff saw the need to teach the child
by guiding his hand
in the characteristic of
a broader attitude to education,
one
that
stands
in
contrast
to
the
Western
preference
for
leaving
the
child
to
explore
and learn unaided.

9. One example is of children at the age of 5 or 6 painting flowers, fish
and animals skillfully and confidently; in a second example, calligraphers 9 and
10
years
old
were
producing
works;
and
in
a
third,
young
artists
work
on
perfecting
their craft for several hours a day.

10. Americans
think
that
unless
creativity
has
been
acquired
early,
it
may
never
emerge, and skills can be picked up later. Chinese think that if skills are not
acquired early, they may never be acquired, and there is no hurry to promote
creativity.

11. This is mainly due to the difference in their way of thinking.

12. The author makes the suggestion that we should strike a better balance
between the poles of creativity and basic skills.

To improve our English, it is critical
to do
more
reading,
writing,
listening and
speaking. Besides, learning by heart as many well-written essays as possible is
also very important. Without an enormous store of good English writing in your
head
you
cannot
express
yourself
freely
in
English.
It
is
also
helpful
to
summarize
our experience as we go along, for in so doing, we can figure out which way of
learning is more effective and will produce the most desirable result. As long
as
we
keep
working
hard
on
it,
we
will
in
due
course
accomplish
the
task
of
mastering
English.
