理解发明就是理解未来

教育神圣的使命在于传承文明,教育是人类最伟大的创造。由于教育,人类个体可以分享漫长岁月里人类整体获得的经验与知识。然而我们经常忽视一个显而易见的事实:学校总是以过去的知识告诉人们如何应对未来的挑战,这种知识与未来的现实之间存在着时间上的差距。前人探索与创造的成果构成了教材的主要内容,这些成果受到当时环境条件和人类活动水平的制约,当它们成书的时候,世界已经发生了变化,最新的成就无法纳入其中。当学生在校园里学习它们的时候,世界又发生了变化,人们永远无法得到完全满足未来需求的知识。如果没有创造,知识只能帮助人们重复过去的道理,描述过去发生的事情。创造力才能使知识活化,为知识赋予灵魂,它是人类过去的经验与未来命运之间的桥梁。

新知识不是演绎出来的,它是创造的产物。实际问题从来不会重复,人类经常面临从未出现过的难题,唯有创造性地运用知识才能解决它们。教育的本质,是一种以知识为载体塑造人格、培育创造才能的历程。创造是一种智慧,又是一种气质,它令世界充满生机,飘荡着诗意。

创造是人类的一种特殊本能。以创造性的方式关注和参与世界事务,是人类内心深层的欲望和动力。发明家是生活在现实世界的理想主义者,他们常常有一种难以抑制的内心冲动,这种冲动激励他们去实现自己的目标,许多因素使他们一往无前,义无反顾。然而,发明家头脑中的观念不容易被社会接受,发明家不容易得到社会的支持,几乎所有的发明家都在逆境中奋斗,因为同时存在着许多不利于发明的因素:

模仿容易,发明困难。因循人类活动的最小阻力原则,许多人乐意选择模仿;

发明是一粒有可能带来丰收希望的种子,从播种到丰收需要经历漫长的过程。社会关注丰收,漠视过程。发明家的智慧、精力以及他能够驱遣的财富,常常不足以支持他走完漫长的全程,性急的企业家不愿意在发明家最需要帮助的时候投入。发明家常常难以度过最困难的时期,使许多优秀发明半途而废。发明家常常思考人类未来的事,市场只关注眼前的事。发明家经常在为明天做晚餐,今天没人享用。晚餐还没有做好,饭铺就已经关张。几乎所有的先进的技术,在第一次出现的时候都不怎么好用,因为还未及完善工艺和配套技术。由于企业家缺乏远见,消费者缺乏宽容,使许多重大的发明经常被拒之门外。发明是涉及科学、社会与人文的全方位活动,需要多种智慧和资源参与,许多发明家不是社会活动家,应对科学之外的问题常常感到力不从心。

教育过分关注继承,不重视培育驾驭知识的能力。

新技术发明的出现仰仗科学、依赖教育,然而更需要文化,需要鼓励探索、呵护发明的创新文化。如果把新技术发明比作美丽的红苹果,科学是长出红苹果的树,教育是培育这棵树的土壤和肥料,文化则是看不见的地下水、合适的温度和阳光。

【题目】Scientists are racing to build the world's first thinking robot. This is not science fiction some say they will have made it by the year 2020Carol Packer reports.

Machines that walk, speak and feel are no longer science fiction. Kismet is the name of an android (人形机器人)which scientists have built at the Massa-chusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Kismet is different from the traditional robot because it can show human emotions. Its eyes, ears and lips move to show when it feels happy, sad or bored. Kismet is one of the first of a new generation of androids—robots that look like human beings—which can imitate human feelings. Cog, another android invented by the MIT, imitates the action of a mother. However, scientists admit that so far Cog has the mental ability of a two-year-old.

The optimists (乐观主义者) say that by the year2020 we will have created humanoids (人形机器人) with brains similar to those of all adult human beings. These robots will be designed to look like people to make them more attractive and easier to sell to the public. What kind of jobs will they do? In the future, robots like Robonaut , a humanoid invented by NASA, will be doing dangerous jobs, like repairing space stations. They will also be doing more and more of the household work for us. In Japan, scientists are designing androids that will entertain us by dancing and playing the piano.

Some people worry about what the future holdsWill robots become monsters(怪物)? Will people themselves become increasingly like robots? Experts predict that more and more people will be wearing micro-computersconnected to the Internet, in the future. People will have micro-chips in various parts of their body, which will connect them to a wide variety of gadgets (小装置). Perhaps we should not exaggerate (夸大)the importance of technology, but one wonders whether, in years to comewe will still be falling in love, and whether we will still feel pain. Who knows?

1 Kismet is different from traditional robots because __________.

A. it thinks for itself

B. It behaves like a child.

C. It can imitate the behavior of a mother.

D. It has a huge brain.

3 In about 10 years' time from now, robots __________

A. will become space designers

B. will look like monsters

C. will behave like animals

D. will think like humans

4 In the future robots will also __________.

A. explore space

B. entertain people

C. move much faster

D. do all of the housework

5 What is the writer's attitude to robots in the future?

【题目】A Full-Time School Called Life

You are enrolled in a full-time school called "life". Each day in this school you will have the opportunity to learn lessons. You may like the lessons or hate them, but you have designed them as part of your curriculum.

Why are you here? What is your purpose? Humans have sought to discover the meaning of life for a very long time. What we and our ancestors overlooked, however, is there is no one answer. The meaning of life is different for every individual.

Each person has his or her own purpose and distinct path, unique and separate from anyone else's. As you travel your life path, you will be presented with numerous lessons that you will need to learn in order to fulfill that purpose. The lessons you are presented with are specific to you; learning these lessons is a key to discovering and fulfilling the meaning and connection of your own life.

As you travel through your lifetime, you may encounter challenging lessons that others don't have to face, while others spend years struggling with challenges that you don't need to deal with. You may never know why you are blessed with a wonderful marriage, while your friends suffer through bitter arguments and painful divorces, just as you cannot be sure why you struggle financially while your peers enjoy abundance. The only thing you can count on for certain is that you specifically need to learn; whether we choose to learn them or not is entirely up to you.

The challenge here, therefore, is to align (与……保持一致) yourself with your own unique path by learning individual lessons. This is one of the most difficult challenges you will be faced with in your lifetime, as sometimes your path will be completely different from others. But, remember, don't compare your path to the people around you and focus on the difference between their lessons and yours. You need to remember that you will only be faced with lessons that you are capable of learning and are specific to your own growth.

Our sense of fairness is the expectation of equity-the assumption that all things are equal and that justice will always prevail. Life is not, in fact, fair, and you may indeed have a more difficult lift path than others around you, deserved or not. Everyone's circumstances are unique, and everyone needs to handle his or her own circumstances differently. If you want to move toward calm, you will be required to move out the comparing phrase of "it's not fair". Focusing on the unfairness of circumstances keeps you comparing yourself with others rather than appreciating your own special uniqueness. You miss out on learning your

individual lessons by distracting yourself with feeling of bitterness and anger.

【1】 According to the passage, how can the meaning of your life be realized?

A. Having the same opinions as others.

B. Taking the distinct path from others.

C. Learning the lessons presented to you.

D. Doing the different things from others.

【2】 From the passage we can conclude _____.

A. everyone has his own track to follow

B. the same thing usually happen to the peers

C. a painful divorce must lie in financial problems

D. a wealthy man must have a wonderful marriage

【3】 In your lifetimes, the lessons you are faced with _____.

A. are beyond your power

B. keep you from growth

C. limit your development

D. help you with your success

【4】 Which of the following is TRUE?

A. All things are equal and justice will always prevail.

B. You should learn to appreciate your specific uniqueness.

C. One has to fix his mind on unfairness of circumstances.

D. The teachers have designed the lessons as part of your curriculum in the life school.

【5】 Life is called a full-time school, because _____.

A. it is full of all lessons to learn

B. you have plenty of time to learn lessons

C. you meet with specific lessons every day

D. there are so many subjects for you to choose
