问答题Nearly every society in human history has considered its own language finer, its own food tastier, its own manners more refined (or more honest), its own morals better (or more sensible), and its own religion the one true religion. (1) In smaller groups ethnocentrism takes the form of "team spirit", "local pride", and "company morale." Taken to extremes, ethnocentrism easily leads to chauvinism (the glorification of one's own group along with fear and hatred of others), racial and religious oppression, warfare, and even genocide. In moderate forms, however, ethnocentrism makes for high morale and effective cooperation within a group. (2) Whether in a football team before a big game or in a nation at war, ethnocentric feelings have the beneficial effect of mobilizing and uniting a threatened group against its enemy. Finally, ethnocentrism can provide satisfaction and comfort. People often make themselves feel better by believing in other's inferiority. "At least I'm not a grind." An important step in the uphill struggle of American blacks and women to win social equality was the increased self-esteem generated by such ethnocentric slogans as "Black is beautiful" and "Sisterhood is powerful." As soon as it became clear that ethnocentrism was a common phenomenon, social scientists realized that they themselves might be unfairly judging the behavior of different peoples according to their own cultural values. (3) To avoid any taint of ethnocentric prejudice, anthropologists began to adopt an attitude of cultural relativism; the view that human thoughts and deeds should be judged not by any outside standards but only by those of the society or group in which they take place. Cultural relativism thus stood for scientific objectivity, fair-mindedness, and liberalism. It rapidly became the dominant view in anthropology and sociology. At first, some anthropologists interpreted cultural relativism so rigidly that they refused to make any judgments whatever about human behavior. (4) In the 1930s the anthropologist Ruth Benedict maintained, for instance, that the cultures of the world were all equally valid patterns of life and nothing any people did was invalid if it was in harmony with the rest of their culture. Paradoxically, the extreme cultural relativists, who wanted to give all other peoples due respect and resist all tendencies toward ethnocentrism in themselves, were drawn to the logical conclusion that anything goes—infanticide, headhunting, slavery, torture, ritual mutilation—provided only that it is in accord with the culture in which it occurs. History soon exposed the fallacy of this doctrine of total objectivity. Under Hitler, the Nazis enslaved millions and put millions more to death. (5) After the 1930s it was no longer possible for scholars to maintain the stance of total cultural relativism. While contemporary anthropologists and sociologists continue to believe that the practices of another people cannot be judged on the same terms as their own culture, they also believe that those practices can be judged in the light of universal values and basic human requirements. Thus, any cultural practice that conflicts with such universal human needs as emotional security, physical health, and self-preservation should not be deemed as valid as practices that serve those needs.

问答题People miss planes, burn dinner, and stay up way past bedtime just to read one more page of a good book. But it"s not just the quality of the prose that causes the worm to burrow so deeply into a book. As typographers have long known, the aesthetics of print has a lot to do with keeping the eye on the page. Since Gutenberg put together the first printing press with movable type more than 500 years ago, typesetters have agonized over the optimum point size of the letters, whether they should have those curlicues(花线)on the ends called serifs(衬线), what style of font to choose, and the precise amount of white space needed between lines of text to make the words stand out. Printing got so good that readers fond it easier to immerse themselves in a book. But with the advent of the computer, reading became infinitely more difficult. The biggest problem was resolution—the clarity of words and images on the screen. A big stumbling block in computer evolution was fuzzy letters arranged on glaring screens that left the reader with a blinding headache. Readability is so poor that, according to Microsoft, the average reader hits the print button after just three paragraphs. As the rest of the world fiddled with new technologies that would provide higher resolution, Microsoft was working on new fonts that would make it easier for the eye to focus on a computer screen. But Bill Hill, a Scot hired in 1994 to head Microsoft"s typography section, wanted to know what was going on in readers" brains when reading a book. He was convinced people would switch from printed page to screen if he could duplicate the experience. "The magical thing about the book is it disappears when you read it. You"re not even aware of the book because the real book is going on in your head. How does it do it?" Hill says on the Microsoft Web site.

问答题To what extent can one say that a piece of classroom work can be regarded as a task in language teaching and learning?

问答题In America we are raised to appreciate the accomplishments of inventors and thinkers—creative people whose ideas have transformed our world. We celebrate the famously imaginative, the greatest artists and innovators from van Gogh to Steve Jobs. Viewing the world creatively is supposed to be an asset, even a virtue. Online job boards burst with ads recruiting "idea people" and "out of the box" thinkers. We are taught that our own creativity will be celebrated as well, and that if we have good ideas, we will succeed. It"s all a lie. This is the thing about creativity that is rarely acknowledged: Most people don"t actually like it. Studies confirm what many creative people have suspected all along: People are biased against creative thinking, despite all of their insistence otherwise. We celebrate creative people, but the thing we celebrate is the after-effect.
