【3】我们的工作应该是当孩子告诉我们他找不到正确答案的时候帮助他。

【4】They compare with others and learn from others.

【5】Let children learn by themselves.

【解析】

本文讲述了孩子的学习能力。孩子们都是通过犯错，然后观察自己所说的句子和被人所说的有什么不同，再进行模仿改正。同样，孩子也是根据这样的方式来学习其他的东西。但是，在学校里，老师不会让他们犯错误，然后自己发现，自己改变。所以，老师应该让学生自己去发现问题，改正问题，并从中学习知识。

【1】答题空1：根据第一段中“he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other people’s”可知他会根据别人的语言改变自己的语言，意味着他和别人的语言是不同的，故此他在注意自己的语言和别人的语言的不同，填单词difference意为“不同，差异“，且语言的差异可能不止一个，应该用复数。故填differences。

答题空2：根据“in the same way ”可知是和上面学习语言一样的方式，而学习语言的方式是他们观察对比自己与别人的不同然后改正学习，没有通过别人来教。故此处的行为也没有别人来教，横线处缺的是“没有”这个词，用without。故填without。

【2】题中“Allow them to go on with this job in their own ways.”意为允许他们以自己的方式继续这项工作；其中allow是“让”，意思等同与let；go on with是“继续做”,意思等同于get on with；与文中的“Let them get on with this job in their ways.”意义相同。故填Let them get on with this job in their ways.

【3】这是一个复合句，前面是主句“Our Job should be to help the child”，意为我们的工作应该是帮助孩子；中间由when引导的时间状语从句“when they tell us...”,意为当他告诉我们……；后面由that引导的宾语从句“that he can’t find the way to get the right answer.”意为他不能找到正确答案的方法。故译为“我们的工作应该是当孩子们告诉我们他找不到正确答案的时候帮助他。”

【4】根据文中“They compare their performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the changes.”可知他们的学习方法是对比其他人，并且改变自己向别人学习技能。故填They compare with others and learn from others.

【5】根据“Let them get on with this job in their ways.”和“they will go out into the world and learn it.”可知作者的意思是让孩子以自己的方式去做事，并且他们也会走向世界去学习，因此总体意思就是让孩子们自己学习；让某人做某事用“let sb do”。故填Let children learn by themselves.
