The ideas of John Dewey, philosopher and educator, have influenced American thought for over one hundred years

Dewey was born in Vermont in 1859, and throughout his life he kept the respect for experience, individuality, and fair play that shaped the character of the nineteenth-century Vermonter He viewed his own life as a continuously reconstructive process, with experience and knowledge building on each other

By the 1930s, Dewey had simplified his theory of experience to its essence As the intellectual leader of the progressive

schools, he asserted that there was danger in rejecting the old unless the new was rooted in a correct idea of experience

Trang 3

He held that experience is an interaction between what a person already knows and the situation at hand Previous knowledge interacting with the present environment influences future experience.

Dewey believed that experience could not be equated with education because all experiences as not necessarily educative Experience is educative only when it contributes to the growth of the individual, but it can be mis-educative if

it distorts the growth of further experience It is the quality of experience that matters Thus, productive experience is

both the means and the goal of education Furthermore, since education is a social process, truly progressive education involves the participation of the learner in directing the learning experience

During his long life, Dewey lectured and published prolifically These writings were influential both during his

lifetime and after his death at the age of ninety-two He viewed his whole life as an experiment which would produce knowledge that would lead to further experimentation The range and diversity of Dewey's writings and his influence on society place him among American's great thinkers

The New York Times is a daily newspaper published in New York City For a long time, it has been the newspaper of

The Times was established in 1851 as a penny paper whose editors wanted to report the news in a restrained and

objective fashion It enjoyed early success as its editors set a pattern for the future by appealing to a cultured, intellectual readership instead of a mass audience However, in the late nineteenth century, it came into competition with more popular, colourful, if not lurid, newspapers in New York City

Despite price increases, the Times was losing $1,000 a week when Adolph Simon Ochs bought it in 1896 Ochs built the Times into an internationally respected daily He hired Carr Van Anda as editor Van Anda placed greater stress than

ever on full reporting of the news of the day, and his reporters maintained and emphasized existing good coverage of international news The management of the paper decided to eliminate fiction from the paper, added a Sunday magazine section, and reduced the paper's price back to a penny In April 1912, the paper took many risks to report every aspect of

the sinking of the Titanic This greatly enhanced its prestige, and in its coverage of two world wars, the Times continued

to enhance its reputation for excellence in world news

In 1971, the Times was given a copy of the so-called "Pentagon Papers," a secret government study of U.S involvement in the Vietnam War When it published the report, it became involved in several lawsuits The U.S Supreme

Court found that the publication was protected by the freedom-of-the-press clause in the First Amendment of the U.S Constitution Later in the 1970s, the paper, under Adolph Ochs's grandson, Arthur Ochs Sulzberger, introduced sweeping changes in the organization of the newspaper and its staff, and brought out a national edition transmitted by satellite to regional printing plants

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer

The ideas of John Dewey, philosopher and educator, have influenced American thought for over one hundred years

Dewey was born in Vermont in 1859, and throughout his life he kept the respect for experience, individuality, and fair play that shaped the character of the nineteenth-century Vermonter He viewed his own life as a continuously reconstructive process, with experience and knowledge building on each other

By the 1930s, Dewey had simplified his theory of experience to its essence As the intellectual leader of the progressive

schools, he asserted that there was danger in rejecting the old unless the new was rooted in a correct idea of experience

He held that experience is an interaction between what a person already knows and the situation at hand Previous knowledge interacting with the present environment influences future experience

Dewey believed that experience could not be equated with education because all experiences as not necessarily educative Experience is educative only when it contributes to the growth of the individual, but it can be mis-educative if

it distorts the growth of further experience It is the quality of experience that matters Thus, productive experience is

both the means and the goal of education Furthermore, since education is a social process, truly progressive education involves the participation of the learner in directing the learning experience

During his long life, Dewey lectured and published prolifically These writings were influential both during his

lifetime and after his death at the age of ninety-two He viewed his whole life as an experiment which would produce knowledge that would lead to further experimentation The range and diversity of Dewey's writings and his influence on society place him among American's great thinkers

The New York Times is a daily newspaper published in New York City For a long time, it has been the newspaper of

record in the United States and one of the world's great newspapers Its strength is in its editorial excellence; it has never been the largest newspaper in terms of circulation

The Times was established in 1851 as a penny paper whose editors wanted to report the news in a restrained and

objective fashion It enjoyed early success as its editors set a pattern for the future by appealing to a cultured, intellectual readership instead of a mass audience However, in the late nineteenth century, it came into competition with more popular, colourful, if not lurid, newspapers in New York City

Despite price increases, the Times was losing $1,000 a week when Adolph Simon Ochs bought it in 1896 Ochs built the Times into an internationally respected daily He hired Carr Van Anda as editor Van Anda placed greater stress than

ever on full reporting of the news of the day, and his reporters maintained and emphasized existing good coverage of international news The management of the paper decided to eliminate fiction from the paper, added a Sunday magazine section, and reduced the paper's price back to a penny In April 1912, the paper took many risks to report every aspect of

the sinking of the Titanic This greatly enhanced its prestige, and in its coverage of two world wars, the Times continued

to enhance its reputation for excellence in world news

In 1971, the Times was given a copy of the so-called "Pentagon Papers," a secret government study of U.S involvement in the Vietnam War When it published the report, it became involved in several lawsuits The U.S Supreme

Court found that the publication was protected by the freedom-of-the-press clause in the First Amendment of the U.S Constitution Later in the 1970s, the paper, under Adolph Ochs's grandson, Arthur Ochs Sulzberger, introduced sweeping changes in the organization of the newspaper and its staff, and brought out a national edition transmitted by satellite to regional printing plants

Question 6: It can be inferred from the passage that the circulation of the Times is

A not the best in the world B the worst in the world.

C the smallest in the world D not the largest in the world.

Question 7: What is the main idea of the passage?

A The New York Times publishes the best fiction by American writers.

B The New York Times broadcasts its news to TV stations via satellite.

C The New York Times lost its prestige after the Vietnam War.

D The New York Times became hig hly respected throughout the world.

The ideas of John Dewey, philosopher and educator, have influenced American thought for over one hundred years

Dewey was born in Vermont in 1859, and throughout his life he kept the respect for experience, individuality, and fair play that shaped the character of the nineteenth-century Vermonter He viewed his own life as a continuously reconstructive process, with experience and knowledge building on each other

By the 1930s, Dewey had simplified his theory of experience to its essence As the intellectual leader of the progressive

schools, he asserted that there was danger in rejecting the old unless the new was rooted in a correct idea of experience

He held that experience is an interaction between what a person already knows and the situation at hand Previous knowledge interacting with the present environment influences future experience

Dewey believed that experience could not be equated with education because all experiences as not necessarily educative Experience is educative only when it contributes to the growth of the individual, but it can be mis-educative if

it distorts the growth of further experience It is the quality of experience that matters Thus, productive experience is

both the means and the goal of education Furthermore, since education is a social process, truly progressive education involves the participation of the learner in directing the learning experience

During his long life, Dewey lectured and published prolifically These writings were influential both during his

lifetime and after his death at the age of ninety-two He viewed his whole life as an experiment which would produce knowledge that would lead to further experimentation The range and diversity of Dewey's writings and his influence on society place him among American's great thinkers

The ideas of John Dewey, philosopher and educator, have influenced American thought for over one hundred years

Dewey was born in Vermont in 1859, and throughout his life he kept the respect for experience, individuality, and fair play that shaped the character of the nineteenth-century Vermonter He viewed his own life as a continuously reconstructive process, with experience and knowledge building on each other

By the 1930s, Dewey had simplified his theory of experience to its essence As the intellectual leader of the progressive

schools, he asserted that there was danger in rejecting the old unless the new was rooted in a correct idea of experience

He held that experience is an interaction between what a person already knows and the situation at hand Previous knowledge interacting with the present environment influences future experience

Dewey believed that experience could not be equated with education because all experiences as not necessarily educative Experience is educative only when it contributes to the growth of the individual, but it can be mis-educative if

it distorts the growth of further experience It is the quality of experience that matters Thus, productive experience is

both the means and the goal of education Furthermore, since education is a social process, truly progressive education involves the participation of the learner in directing the learning experience

During his long life, Dewey lectured and published prolifically These writings were influential both during his

lifetime and after his death at the age of ninety-two He viewed his whole life as an experiment which would produce knowledge that would lead to further experimentation The range and diversity of Dewey's writings and his influence on society place him among American's great thinkers
