In this constantly
changingworld, how to put the knowledge acquired every day into
reality hasintrigued numerous people. As a proverb goes, “
Knowledge is atreasure, but practice is the key to it.” Apparently,
this sayingaims to deliver the message that if we truly want to
master theknowledge we learn, we ought not to stop
practicingit.
第一段三句話，用核心詞引入+帶出引言+引言的目的
There are several
reasonsaccountable for this statement. To begin with, human being
areforgetful beings; therefore, only when we use knowledge,
makemistakes, and try to use it again will we be able to remember
it byour heart. Moreover, knowledge has become growingly
complicated andwe can seldom genuinely grasp the essence of it if
we do notpractice it and ponder it over again and again. For
instance, thereused to be simple diseases, such as the cold and
measles, and adoctor might have the knowledge to treat all the
common ver, with our living environment becoming ever
increasinglyharsher, the diseases have evolved into weird,
irremediable, andunpredictable ones. Therefore, the medication has
been divided intonumerous branches, and doctors of each one have to
practice foryears only in order to cure the diseases belonging to
the similarsort.
第二段，解釋引言。中心句+兩個原因+舉例。舉例應用對比法。
Practicing, to sum up, is
ofgreatest importance for those who are determined to learn
knowledgewell. Not only does it assist people to remember knowledge
better,but we are able to catch up with the speed of the evolotion
ofknowledege. As a student, I hope that the young can focus
moreattention on practicing what they learn than on remembering
itblindly so that the knowledge will become our real treasure
andmake our life more splendid.

And if stress in childhood can lead to
heartdisease, what about current stresses? Longer work hours,
threats oflayoffs, collapse in pension funds. A study last year in
theLancered examined more than 11,000 heart attack sufferers from
52countries. It found that in the year before their heart
attacks,patients have been under significantly more stress than
some 13,000healthy control subjects. Those stresses came from work,
family,financial trouble, depression and other
causes.
Each of these factors individually wasassociated
with increased risk, says Dr. Salim Yosef, professor ofmedicine at
Canada’s McMaster University, and senior investigatoron the study.
Together they accounted for 30% of overall heartattack risk, but
people respond differently to high pressure worksituations. Whether
it produces heart problems seems to depend onwhether you have a
sense of control over life, or live at the mercyof circumstances
and superiors.
That was the experience of Jano Cano, a
roughedIllinois laboratory manager, who suffered his first heart
attack in1996 at the age of 56. In the two years before, his mother
and twoof his children had suffered serious illnesses, and his job
hadbeen changed in a reorganization. “My life seemed completely out
ofcontrol,” he says, “I had no idea where I would end up.” He
endedup in hospital due to a block in his artery. Two months later,
hehad a triple bypass surgery. A second heart attack when he was
58left his doctor shaking his head. “There’s nothing more we can
dofor you,” doctors told him.
23. What does the passage
mainlydiscuss?
24. What do we learn about Jano
Cano’sfamily?
25. What did Jano Cano’s doctors tell him whenhe
had a second heart attack?
答案：
23. B) Pressure and disease.
24. A) It experienced a series
ofmisfortunes.
25. C) They could do nothing to
helphim.

When most people think of the word
“education”,they think of a pupil as a sort of animate sausage
casing. Intothis empty casting, the teachers are supposed to
stuff“education.”
But genuine education, as Socrates knew morethan
two thousand years ago, is not ing the stuffing ofinformation
into a person, but rather eliciting knowledge from him;it is the
drawing-out of what is in the mind.
“The most important part of education,”
oncewrote William Ernest Hocking, the distinguished
Harvardphilosopher, “is this instruction of a man in what he has
inside ofhim.”
And, as Edith Hamilton has reminded us,
Socratesnever said, “I know, learn from me.” He said, rather, “Look
intoyour own selves and find the spark of the truth that God has
putinto every heart and that only you can kindle to
aflame.”
Ina dialogue, Socrates takes an
ignorant slave boy, without a day ofschooling, and proves to the
amazed observers that the boy really“knows” geometry
– because
theprinciples of geometry are already in his mind, waiting to
becalled out.
So many of the discussions and
controversiesabout the content of education are useless and
inconclusive becausethey are concerned with what should “go into”
the student ratherthan with what should be taken out, and how this
can best bedone.
The college student who once said to me, after
alecture, “I spend so much time studying that I don’t have a
chanceto learn anything,” was clearly expressing his
dissatisfaction withthe sausage casing view of
education.
答案：
26. are supposed to
27. ing
28. drawing-out
29. distinguished
30. spark
31. flame
32. schooling
33. controversies
34. are concerned with
35. dissatisfaction
