They would come over to watch Benjamin and then try to teach him how to do it properly.4.Why did the author decide to work the key-slot anecdote into his discussions with Chinese educators?

The manner in which the Chinese staff saw the need to teach the child by guiding his hand in the characteristic of a broader attitude to education, one that stands in contrast to the Western preference for leaving the child to explore and learn unaided.9.What examples does the author give to illustrate childhood education in the arts in China?

One example is of children at the age of 5 or 6 painting flowers, fish and animals skillfully and confidently;in a second example, calligraphers 9 and 10 years old were producing works;and in a third, young artists work on perfecting their craft for several hours a day.10.How do Americans and Chinese differ in their attitudes to creativity?

Americans think that unless creativity has been acquired early, it may never emerge, and skills can be picked up later.Chinese think that if skills are not acquired early, they may never be acquired, and there is no hurry to promote creativity.11.What makes them take different positions on the question of creativity? This is mainly due to the difference in their way of thinking.12.What suggestion goes the author make about seeking a better approach to fostering skills and creativity?

 Cloze

Is there a between learning styles in China and the West?While we should be careful to avoid the differences, they do appear to exist.In China, for example, greateris given to developing skills at an early age.The Americans,place more emphasis oncreativity in young children, leaving them toskills later.American parents tend to avoid rushing in to their children as they try toa task, thinking it better that children should learn to solve problems by themselves.Such an approach can, ,be mistaken for one’s parental duties by those more used to “teaching by holding the hand,”Both approaches have their disadvantages as well as advantages, and it may well beto search for a method that would combine the best of both worlds.中国与西方的学习方式有什么区别吗？尽管我们试图去避免夸大他们之间的不同时，但是不同还是存在的。例如，在中国，人们优先考虑的是在早年进行技艺的学习。另一方面，美国人更加注重小孩子的创造力的发展，然后才是技艺的学习。但孩子们在完成某件事情时，美国的父母认为孩子们应该学会自己解决问题，他们会尽量避免早早地向孩子们提供帮助。有时，这个方法会让那些经常“手把手教育”的父母误会这些父母在消极怠工。这两种方法都有他们的可取之处和不好的地方，也许，找到一个将二者合二为一的办法能更好。
