23、型二Is there a contrast (1) between learning styles in China and the West? While we should be careful to avoid exaggerating (2) the differences, they do appear to exist. In China, for example, greater priority (3) is given to developing skills at an early age. The Americans, on the other hand (4), pla
24、ce more emphasis on promoting (5) creativity in young children, leaving them to pick up (6) skills later. American parents tend to avoid rushing in to assist (7) their children as they try to accomplish (8) a task, thinking it better that children should learn to solve problems by themselves. Such a
25、n approach can, on occasion (9), be mistaken for neglecting (10) ones parental duties by those more used to “teaching by holding the hand.” Both approaches have their disadvantages as well as advantages, and it may well be worthwhile (11) to search for a superior (12) method that would combine the b
26、est of both worlds.If you visited Karl Green, you might not at first sight think he was well-off/ affluent (1). Most of what he owns is rather dated (2) and he will readily admit to falling into (3) the bottom income bracket (4). Yet he would deny (5) that he is poor, for he feels that his life is f
27、ull of less tangible (6) riches. Rather than devoting himself to the pursuit (7) of money before all else, he cherishes (8) the pleasures of friendship. His lack of interest possessions does, however, sometimes make him feel out of place(9) in todays materialistic society and he still clearly feels
28、hurt when he remembers the abrupt (10) departure of a girlfriend who did not share his views. Yet there are many who admire him, particularly for his focus (11) on helping the poor through collecting donations (12) each Christmas. Our dad is typical (1) of the older generation. You can certainly say
29、 he gives our welfare (2) his constant (3) attention. Sometimes, however, we wish he wouldnt try quite so hard. To be frank (4), he seems to have a talent (5) for embarrassing us by making dumb (6) remark. He should know better than that (7), but he never seems to learn and just goes on making the s
30、ame old mistakes repeatedly (8). The result is that we live in constant dread (9) of his well-intentioned interference (10) in our affairs. Mom is no help, as you can bet (11) she will always see things from his point of view rather than from ours. Overall, though, hes a wonderful dad and I assure (
31、12) you I wouldnt trade him for anyone in the world.With the internet (1) we can escape into another world at the click (2) of a button. For many this virtual (3) world is a dream come true. They find they can do away with the daily routines (4) and say inside for weeks and arrange (5) everything fr
32、om home. Others, however, may find the virtual world a nightmare (6). It is especially annoying (7) when the Internet connection (8) is slow and everything crawls (9) at a snails place. The computer does not take in (10) your messages nor does it spit (11) out data (12). Still others, who get sucked into (13) the virtual world, may find communicating face-to-face too emotional and unbearable. At times (14) they feel this so strongly that they have to flee (15) from real human contact, hurryi
