Let children learn to judge their own work. A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected all the time; if corrected too much, he will stop talking. He notices a thousand times a day the difference between the language he uses and the language those around him use. Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other people’s. In the same way, children learn to do all the other things without being taught to walk, run, climb, whistle, ride a bicycle…They compare their own performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed changes. But in school we never give a child a chance to find out his mistakes and correct them for himself. We do it all for him. We act as if we thought that he would never notice a mistake. If it is a matter in mathematics or science, give him the answer book. Let him correct his own papers. Why should we teachers waste time in such routine(日常的) work? Our job should be to help the child when he tells us that he can’t find the way to get the right answer. Let the children learn what all educated persons must some day learn, how to measure their own understanding, how to know what he does not know.
1. According to the passage, the best way for children to learn things is by_____.
A listening to skilled people’s advice. B asking older people many questions

2. Which of the following does the writer think teachers should NOT do?
A. Give children correct answers B. Allow children to mark mistakes.

3. According to the writer, teachers in school should _____
A allow children to learn from each other
B point out children’s mistakes whenever found
C correct children’s mistakes as soon as possible
D give children more book knowledge
4. The passage suggests that learning to speak and learning to ride a bicycle are____
A. different from learning other skills B. the same as learning skills
