1、Unit One：EducationText：In Praise of the F Word 对 F 的赞美Tens of thousands of 18-year-olds will graduate this year and be handed meaningless diplomas. These diplomas won t look any different from those awarded their luckier classmates.Their validity will be questioned only when their employers discover
2、 that these graduates are semiliterate. 今年，将有成千上万的18 岁学生毕业并被授于毫无意义的文凭。这些文凭对每个人都是一样的,没有一点差别，而不管学生的成绩如何.但当雇主发现他们没有实际能力时，文凭的有效性就会被质疑。Eventually a fortunate few will find their way into educational repair shops-adult-literacy programs, such as the one where I teach basic grammar and writing. There, high

They will also discover they have been cheated by our educational system. 即使少数幸运的人找到了成人进修的地方，像我教语法和写作的地方。在这里， 高中毕业和高中辍学的学生为了追求等价的毕业证书必需学习他们本应该在学校学习的东西。他们会发
4、现自己被我们的教育系统所欺骗。As I teach,I learn a lot about our schools.Early in each session I ask my students to write about an unpleasant experience they had in school . No writers block here! “ I wish someone would have had made me stop doing drugs and made me study .” ” I liked to party and no one seemed to
5、care .” “I was a good kid and didn t cause any trouble,so they just passed me along even though I didnt read well and couldn t write.” And so on.当我教他们的时候，我从我们的课堂上学到了很多。在每次开班， 首先我会让学生写一下关于他们在学校的一次很不愉快的经历。每个学生都会有这样的经历。有人说：“ 我希望有一个人可以使我停止吸毒，让我好好学习。” ；有人说： “ 我喜欢聚会，但好像没有人注意过我 ” ；有人说： “ 我是一个好孩子，没有制造过任何麻烦。
6、所以尽管学习不好，考试还是让我通过。 ” 等等。I am your basic do-gooder, and prior to teaching this class I blamed the poor academic skills our kids have today on drugs ,divorce and other impediments to concentration necessary for doing well in school. But ,as I rediscover each time I walk into the classroom ,before a te

That is to reveal the trump card of teacher . 我是教过这个班级的先届老师和他们最初级的改良者。我痛斥那些拙劣的教学方式，以至于今天我们的孩子们陷入吸毒，离婚和其他使他们不能专注于学习的困扰。但是， 当我每次走进教室都会发现的是，在一名老师期望可以引起学生的注意之前，他已经吸引了学生的注意， 而不管面临什么样的干扰。有很多方式可以做到这一点，并
9、且老师们在教学风格方面还亟待改进。 然而，如果教学风格不能做到这点，还有另一种方法使你成为教室里的导引者，那就是使用教师的杀手锏。I will never forget a teacher who played that card to get the attention of one of my children. Our youngest,a world-class charmer ,did little to develop his intellectual talents but always got by until Mrs.Stifter became his teacher .
10、我永远都忘不了那位曾用她独特的方式来吸引我儿子注意力的那位老师。我最小的儿子后来成为了世界级魔术师，但在Stifter 女士成为他的老师之前，学习总是不怎么努力却总能过关，直到Stifter 女士当了他的老师，这种局面就改变了。Our son was a high school senior when he had her for English. “ He sits in the back of the room talking to his friends ,” she told me . “Why don t you move him to the front row ?” I urge
11、d, believing the embarrassment would get him to settle down. Mrs.Stifter looked at me steely-eyed over her glasses.”I dont move seniors , ”she said. “ I flunk them. I was flustered. Our son s academic life flashed before my eyes.No teacher had ever threatened him weth that before . 当她教我们儿子英语的时候我们儿子还
12、是一个高中生。她对我说：“ 你们儿子总是坐在教室后面和他的朋友说话。” 我敦促她说 “ 为什么你不把他调到前排” ， 相信他坐在前排被那么多人看着就会好好学习。Stifter 女士用坚毅的眼神通过她的眼镜看着我说：“ 我不会为他们调位，他们已经是高中生了，我让他们不及格。” 我很慌张。I regained my composure and managed to say that I thought she was right . By the time I got home I was feeling pretty good about this .It was a radical appro
13、ach for these times .but ,well ,why not ? “ Shes going to flunk you,”I told my son. I did not discuss it any further. Suddenly English became a priority in his life. He finished out the semester with an A. 我们儿子的学术生涯从我的眼前一闪而过。在这之前从没有老师威胁过他。我恢复了平静，也认为她做的是对的。当回到家时我对这个方式感觉很好。它是一个好的激降法。为什么不这样做呢？于是我告诉我的儿子
14、：“ 她准备让你不基格。” 我其它什么也没说。突然英语在他的生活中处于优先地位。他这个学期的成绩竟然得了一个A。I know one example doesnt make a case,but at night I see a parade of students who are angry and resentful for having been passed along until they could no longer even pretend to keep up.

18、thing is at stake.They d rather be sailing. 让一个对自己的学业都没掌握好的学生毕业，不仅欺骗了他们自己，也欺骗了那些认为毕业生们都掌握了基本技能的雇主们。我们可以对这个不诚实的行为辩解说，孩子们不能学习是因为他们周围的环境太糟糕。似乎没有人停下来思考过这个问题 无论孩子们来自什么环境， 大部分孩子并不会把学业放在第一位，除非他们意识到这种做法有一定风险。他们宁愿随波逐流。Many students I see at night could give expert testimony on unemployment,chemical dependenc

But fear of failure, whether economic or academic ,can motivate both. 所有年龄段的人都能克服他们的问题,但他们需要一个这样做的理由。年轻人通常不像我的那些成年的学生一样有一个成熟的心态去看待教育

24、到这确实是一个积极的教育工具。老师和家长应该对此具有信心，即学生完全有能力学会你所给他的东西。然而，要让其重新行之有效必须要做出一些奉献，老师和家长应该合作起来。这将意味着两者都必须要正视这个现实中的困境 让不学习的学生通过， 可以避免短时的悲痛，但却注定了他们长期的无知。这意味着教师们在了解了他的危害之后必须要坚持到底，并且家长们在了解了他们孩子的最终利益受到危害之后必须坚定的站在老师的这一边。这意味着，不再替Scott 做作业是因为这样会给他带来失败，不让Scott 通过是因为他是一个如此优秀的孩子。This is a policy that worked in the past and
