One of them is a school in Jerusa
24、lem where Arab and Israeli children learn together. (2) These children sing a song made popular by a world-famous Lebanese singer. This might seem an ordinary event at a school in Beirut or any other Arab capital, but this nursery is in Jerusalem, and the children are both Arabs and Israelis. This i
25、s the youngest group of students enrolled in the Bilingual School, one of two such primary schools founded by the organization Hand-in- Hand, which aims to promote peaceful coexistence between Arabs and Jews. It opened during a more hopeful time in 1998. (3) Here, unlike almost every other school in
26、 Israel, Arab and Jewish students learn side by side. In each class, there are two teachers, one Arab and one Israeli. Instruction is in both Hebrew and Arabic and the aim is to make the students equally fluent in both languages. And through this process, they are also learning about each other s cu
27、lture, with the objective of greater under- standing and respect between the two peoples. The music teacher, an Arab, is excited about the prospects for the project, offering hope for a brighter future, despite the current violence between Israelis and Palestinians. (4) Mr. Livienthal, who has worke
28、d as an associate director for Hand-in-Hand, believes that the challenge ahead is for Arabs and Jews in Israel to fully understand and respect one another s languages and traditions. “ What we want to achieve is full integration, Jewish, Arab education, fully bilingual and a full acceptance of the o
29、ther,” he said. (5) But applying this theory can be uncomfortable, and Mr. Livienthal is the first to acknowledge that the task is not easy. Take for example, the problem of national holidays. Each year, Israelis celebrate the founding of their state on Independence Day. But at this school the Jewis
30、h students learn that their Arab counterparts commemorate the same occasion as Nakbah, meaning “ catastrophe.” (6) But Mr. Livienthal insists that both sides must know the truth about each other s beliefs from an early age. “ We don t see a threat by marking the Nakbah day,” he said. “ We don t enco
31、urage hatred, we encourag e listening. It was very difficult for both sides of course.” (7) Reflecting its unique character. the school has two principals. The Arab principal, Ali Khatib says the goal should be to encourage other schools to adopt the same innovative approach. “ If we succeed with th
32、is and many parents want to register their children at the school, it will be a model for other schools in Israel,” Mr. Khatib said. (8) So far, the school has 123 children and there are classes to the 4th grade. Mr. Khatib says the dream is to enroll more students and expand the project into second
33、ary education. He works alongside with Dalia Peretz, who is the Jewish principal. She believes the school is promoting positive changes by bringing Arabs and Jews together from an early age. (9) “ I didn t meet Arab friends until I was in university, and this is the common case,” she said. “ And whe
34、n you meet Arabs as a Jew in Israel, you meet them as your waiter, as your worker, something like that. It is very seldom on an equal level. And here at the school, it is a totally different case because the children grow up together. Reality is complex. There are Arabs and there are Jews, and the c
35、onflict does not have only one side, it has at least two sides.” The ability 精品资料 - - - 欢迎下载 - - - - - - - - - - - 欢迎下载 名师归纳 - - - - - - - - - -第 4 页，共 7 页 - - - - - - - - - - of the students to see both dimensions is evident. (10) Ten-year-old Arab student Basil Aid answers in fluent Hebrew and com
36、ments that he counts some of his Jewish classmates as his best friends. And even at their young ages, students here seem to realize they re involved in something potentially bigger than just going to school. Eight- year-old Jewish student, Jaime Einstein said. “ I think its good because if Arabs and
37、 Jews will be together, so maybe the people in the world will be together.” (11) Keeping such hopes alive with the clouds of war gathering once again over the Middle East is not easy. But at this school at least, the students and teachers are doing their best. Text II NO NAME WOMAN Maxine Hong Kings
