Life learning (sometimes called
un-schooling or self-directed learning) is one of those concepts that are almost
easier to explain by saying what it isn’t, than what it is. And that’s probably
because our own schooled backgrounds have convinced us that learning happens
only in a dedicated building on certain days, between certain hours, and managed
by a specially trained professional. Within that schooling
framework, no matter how hard teachers try and no matter how good their
textbooks, many bright students get bored, many slower students struggle and
give up or lose their self-respect, and most of them reach the end of the
process unprepared to enter into society. They have memorized a certain body of
knowledge long enough to rush back the information on tests, but they haven’t
really learnt much, at least of the official curriculum. Life
learners, on the other hand, know that learning is not difficult, that people
learn things quite easily if they’re not compelled and forced, if they see a
need to learn something, and if they are trusted and respected enough to learn
it on their own timetable, at their own speed, in their own way. They know that
learning cannot be produced in us and that we cannot produce it in others—no
matter what age and no matter whether we’re at school or at home.
Life learning is independent of time, location or the presence of teacher.
It does not require mom or dad to teach, or kids to work in workbooks at the
kitchen table from 9 to noon from September to June. Life learning is
learner-driven. It involves living and learning— in and from the real world. It
is about exploring, questioning, experimenting, making messes, taking risks
without fear of making mistakes, being laughed at and trying again.
Furthermore, life learning is about trusting kids to learn what they need
to know and about helping them to learn and grow in their own ways. It is about
providing positive experiences that enable children to understand the world and
their culture and to interact with it.

单选题Two hours from the tall buildings of Manhattan and Philadelphia live some of the world"s largest black bears. They are in northern Pennsylvania"s Pocono Mountains, a home they share with an abundance of other wildlife.
The streams, lakes, meadows (草地), mountain ridges and forests that make the Poconos an ideal place for blackbears have also attracted more people to the region. Open spaces are threatened by plans for housing estates and important habitats (栖息地) are endangered by highway construction. To protect the Poconos" natural beauty from irresponsible development, the Nature Conservancy (大自然保护协会) named the area one of America"s "Last Great Places".
Operating out of a century-old schoolhouse in the village of Long Pond, Pennsylvania, the conservancy"s president Cook is working with local people and business leaders to balance economic growth with environmental protection. By forging partnerships with people like Francis Altemose, the Conservancy has been able to protect more than 14,000 acres of environmentally important land in the area.
Altemose"s family has farmed in the Poconos area for generations. Two years ago Francis worked with the Conservancy to include his farm in a county farmland protection program. As a result, his family"s land can be protected from development and the Altemoses will be better able to provide a secure financial future for their 7-year-old grandson.
Cook attributes the Conservancy"s success in the Poconos to having a local presence and a commitment to working with local residents. "The key to protecting these remarkable lands is connecting with the local community," Cook said. "The people who live there respect the land. They value quiet forests, clear streams and abundant wildlife. They are eager to help with conservation effort. "

单选题"Mummy, I don' t know what to play with." Steve interrupts his mother, who is talking to a friend, for the fourth time. "You've got a room full of toys!" his mother says impatiently. In fact it is the jumble of toys which is to blame for four-year-old Steve's lack of interest in his dolls, cars and stuffed animals. Each morning he tips out three washing baskets of toys all over his floor, listlessly pulls out something and shortly after is standing at his mother's desk or following her into the kitchen saying: "Mummy, I am bored." A family therapist (心理医生) explains why children lose interest when they have a whole "toy shop" at home: "According to their brain development, little children are not in a position to judge the quality of a variety of things at once. There is always just one favorite toy for the moment. All the rest is left lying about." What can parents do to stop their children from being oversupplied with toys? Under no conditions simply make something disappear without the child's knowledge. If he / she takes no more notice of a toy, a parent can ask if it can be stored or given away. Be warned though the child will always say he / she wants it then! A talk with relatives and friends may also help. Lyn is the mother of four-year-old Jessie, and we like her way. A small set of shelves in her child's room holds the toys and books that are the current favorites. When it seems to her that her daughter is tired of these toys, they put them away in a box together and select some other toys from a cupboard in another room. The box of "old" toys goes into the cupboard. When her child says she is "bored", they also get something from her cupboard — it may be something she has had for some time but because she hasn't seen it for a while it is almost like a new toy. Some favorite toys stay out all the time, and there is a collection of dolls which sits in the corner, but in this way Lyn has found that she has fewer toys to put away at the end of the day and her daughter always has something "fresh" to play with.
