However, in the sentence “After six years of study in school, he successfully entered Zhejiang University at th

The role of research in the acquisition of human knowledge can hardly be understood fully without being studied
17、in connection to that of experience and reasoning. For the purpose of achieving a better understanding of research, the role of experience and reasoning will be considered before that of research.2.1 ExperienceExperience is a kind of development of personal knowledge of the world. It is regarded as
18、an individually accumulated body of knowledge (Cohen and Manion 1). In a problem-solving situation, people tend to resort to personal experience first. However, where solutions to problems clearly lie beyond this body of personal experience, it is often helpless to resort to personal experience. In
19、the case of foreign language learning, the learners native language often interferes with or facilitates the learning of the target language. This can be considered as a clear indication of the learners reliance on the personal experience in his or her first language. It is arguable that the persona
20、l experience is by no means reliable although it is sometimes helpful because it cannot guarantee smooth progress and success in foreign language learning.As for English language teaching, our experience of English examinations can be resorted to when we help our students prepare for the college ent
21、rance examination of English. However, it is difficult for us to resort to our previous personal experience when we are facing the problem of how to motivate middle school students in communicative language teaching as many of them can hardly see any chance to communicate directly with native speake
22、rs of English.2.2 ReasoningReasoning is the act of forming conclusions, judgements or inferences by thinking in a logical manner. There are two basic types of reasoning: one is inductive reasoning and the other is deductive reasoning.Inductive reasoning begins with observations and evidence of empir
23、ical regularities or empirical relationships (Howard 8). This is a mental process from a number of specific cases to a general idea underlying them. When a learner of English comes across expressions such as “three books”, “many ships”, “two minutes”, he or she may form a hypothesis that “-s” is use
24、d to indicate the idea of “two or more”. It is not difficult to see that inductive reasoning in foreign language learning often leads to hypothesis formation.Deductive reasoning begins with basic beliefs, theories, assumptions, propositions, and so on, the validity of which is assumed and untested (

In foreign language learning, if we learn a grammatical rule or a word-formation rule first, then we apply it
26、 to make a sentence or to coin a new word. For example, according to the English word-formation rule that the prefix “un-” and an adjective may combine to form another adjective with negative or opposite force in it: “un-” and “happy” go together to form “unhappy” with the meaning of “not happy”.The
27、re is an obvious limitation in reasoning as an activity. According to Cohen and Manion, “it reasoning was no longer related to observation and experience and became merely a mental exercise” (3).页：3夹注的格式要求：所引文献的作者在正文中出现的情形：根据MLA格式，只要列出“引文出现的页码”就可，不用加文献的出版年份，也不用再列上作者的姓。（见MLA科研论文写作规范第212-213，64页。） Tha
28、t is to say, the credibility of reasoning, whether inductive or deductive, will be questionable once reasoning is not connected to the reality. Now consider the hypothesis that “-s” used with a countable noun indicates the idea of “two or more” again. As noted by Quirk and his co-authors, “unlike so
29、me languages where plural implies two or more, English makes the division after more than one: one half day, one day But: one and a half days, two days, one or two days” (297).页：4夹注的格式要求：所引文献的作者在正文中出现的情形：根据MLA格式，只要列出“引文出现的页码”就可，不用加文献的出版年份，也不用再列上作者的姓。（见MLA科研论文写作规范第212-213页。） Here, it is clear that re
30、asoning itself cannot guarantee its self-correction. Similarly, the application of the word-formation rule in the previous paragraph cannot prevent learners from making unacceptable adjectives such as “*unhonest”, “*unactive”. When such errors occur, they are considered as cases of overgeneralizatio
31、n reflecting the limitation of inductive reasoning.Although reasoning has its weaknesses, its contributions to the human knowledge are enormous. As Cohen and Manion state, the role of reasoning in the acquisition of human knowledge is threefold: 1) the suggestion of hypotheses; 2) the logical develo
32、pment of these hypotheses; and 3) the clarification and interpretation of scientific findings and their synthesis into a conceptual framework (4). The implication of their remarks hints that reasoning not only directs but also constructs the development of human knowledge, including our knowledge of
33、 language and language learning and teaching.2.3 ResearchResearch can be defined from different perspectives. From the view of information processing, research refers to the process of obtaining and analysing information (Hitchcock and Hughes 5). Considering its design features, research “has been d
34、efined by Kerlinger as the systematic, controlled, empirical and critical investigation of hypothetical propositions about the presumed relations among natural phenomena (Cohen and Manion 4).Cohen and Manion elaborate the three advantages of research in comparison to experience and reasoning: First,
35、 research is systematic and controlled because its operations are based on reasoning whereas experience cannot be systematic and self-correcting because of its haphazard manner in dealing with a problem. Second, research is empirical because it resorts to experience for validation whereas reasoning
36、is not empirical because of its subjective nature. Third, only research is self-corrective. This self-corrective functioning is guaranteed in two ways. On the one hand, the scientific method of research has built-in mechanisms to protect researchers from error. On the other hand, the researchers pro
37、cedures and results are open to public examination by fellow professionals (Cohen and Manion 4). (See Table 1)页：4在正文中引述表格应称为“Table 1”、“Table 2”等，应避免用“this table”、“the following table”等说法。 Cohen and Manions elaboration reveals that research combines the strengths of both experience and reasoning whil
38、e avoiding their weaknesses. Therefore, research can be regarded as the most powerful means to acquire new knowledge. It is beneficial for both teachers and students to integrate research into their study and teaching of English.Table 1.页：5把表格保持在同一页：先选中表格标题和表格本身，用“格式”“段落” “换行和分页”勾选“与下一段同页”即可。（注意：表格的

40、e, obtain empirical evidence through experience to test and modify the hypotheses derived from reasoning. For example, when a learner first resorts to inductive reasoning to form the hypothesis that “-s” indicates the idea of “two or more”. Later, the learner may happen to produce output such as “*o
41、ne and a half hour” through deductive reasoning on the basis of the existing hypothesis and get the corrective feedback from the teacher. With such feedback as negative empirical evidence, he or she would modify the existing hypothesis to reach the conclusion that “English makes the division after m
42、ore than one” (Quirk et al. 297).3. Four types of studyIn a generally accepted sense, study refers to the mental activities in acquiring knowledge. According to The Random House Dictionary of the English Language, “study” means “application of the mind to the acquisition of knowledge, as by reading,
43、 investigation, or reflection” (“Study,” def. 1888).页：5词典词条的夹注：将词条在双引号中列出，后加 “def.”，再加页码。（参见词条的参考文献条目。） From this definition, we can identify two kinds of study: one is receptive study mainly through reading and the other is critical study through investigation or reflection. More types of study can
44、 be recognised when we make reference to different educational theoretical sources. “Productive study” is proposed here to develop the educational idea “Use what you have just read to learn what you have just read” (Biehler and Snowman 438). “Creative study” can be a potential direction in education
45、 when we accept Sternberg and Williamss advice “You can learn and teach creative thinking” and “develop creativity in yourself, in your students, and in your colleagues and staff members” (1). In this section, these ideas will be tentatively developed in the ELT context.3.1 Receptive studyReceptive
46、study occurs when you receive information from the outside world. In the case of foreign language learning, successful receptive study is expected to be based on Krashens “more comprehensible input” (39) and Ausubels “meaningful reception learning” (Hohn 224). Here, meaningful communication is the k
47、ey to success. In receptive study, you select and take in what is new and meaningful to you.3.2 Productive studyProductive study occurs when you use what you have learned. This is more demanding because it results from your recalling what you have learned. For example, if you want to retell a story
48、in English, you have to memorise enough words and sentence patterns as well as the plot of the story. In receptive study, you may try some informed wise guesses with the help of the context of communication. However, guessing techniques are of little use in language production.In foreign language learning, there is a kind of special production for memorisation rathe
