  Teaching children to read well from the start is the most important task of elementary schools.But relying on educators to approach this task correctly can be a great mistake.Many schools continue to employ instructional methods that have been proven ineffective.The staying power of the “l(fā)ook-say” or “whole-word” method of teaching beginning reading is perhaps the most flagrant example of this failure to instruct effectively.

  The whole-word approach to reading stresses the meaning of words over the meaning of letters, thinking over decoding, developing a sight vocabulary of familiar words over developing the ability to unlock the pronunciation of unfamiliar words.It fits in with the self-directed, “l(fā)earning how to learn” activities recommended by advocates(倡導(dǎo)者)of “open” classrooms and with the concept that children have to be developmentally ready to begin reading.Before 1963, no major publisher put out anything but these “Run-Spot-Run” readers.

  However, in 1955, Rudolf Flesch touched off what has been called “the great debate” in beginning reading.In his best-seller Why Johnny Can’t Read, Flesch indicted(控訴)the nation’s public schools for miseducating students by using the look-say method.He said- and more scholarly studies by Jeane Chall and Rovert Dykstra later confirmed-that another approach to beginning reading, founded on phonics(語音學(xué)), is far superior.

  Systematic phonics first teachers children to associate letters and letter combinations with sounds; it then teaches them how to blend these sounds together to make words.Rather than building up a relatively limited vocabulary of memorized words, it imparts a code by which the pronunciations of the vast majority of the most common words in the English language can be learned.Phonics does not devalue the importance of thinking about the meaning of words and sentences; it simply recognizes that decoding is the logical and necessary first step.

A new research has uncovered that culture is a determining factor when people interpret facial emotions (情感).The study reveals that in cultures where emotional control is the standard,such as Japan,the focus is placed on the eyes to interpret emotions. Whereas in cultures where emotion is openly expressed,such as the United States,the focus is on the mouth to interpret emotions.
“These findings go against the popular theory that the facial expressions of basic emotions can be universally recognized,” said University of Alberta researcher Dr.Takahiko Masuda.” A person’s culture plays a very strong role in determining how he will read emotions and needs to be considered when interpreting the facial expressions.”
These cultural differences are even noticeable in computer emoticons(情感符號(hào)),which are used to convey a writer’s emotions by email and text message. The Japanese emotions for happiness and sadness vary in terms of how the eyes are drawn ,while the American emotions vary with the direction of the mouth. In the United States the emoticons∶)and∶­) show a happy face,whereas the emoticons∶(and∶­(show a sad face. However,the Japanese tend to use the symbol (‘­‘) to indicate a happy face,and (;­;) to indicate a sad face.
“We think it is quite interesting and appropriate that culture tends to mask its emotions. The Japanese would focus on a person’s eyes when detecting his or her emotions,as eyes tend to be quite subtle(微妙的),”said Masuda. “In the United States,where an open emotion is quite common,it makes sense to focus on the mouth,which is the most expressive feature on a person’s face.”
【小題1】The text mainly tells us that ________.

A.cultural differences are expressed in emotions
B.culture is a key to interpreting facial emotions
C.different emoticons are preferred in different cultures
D.people from different cultures express emotions differently
【小題2】Which emoticon is used by Americans to show a happy face?
A.(;­;)B.∶­)
C.∶­(D.∶(
【小題3】If a Japanese wants to detect whether a smile is true or false,he will probably________.
A.read the whole faceB.focus on the mouth
C.look into the eyesD.judge by the voice
【小題4】The computer emoticons used by Americans show that________.
A.they express their feelings openly
B.they tend to control their emotions
C.they are good at conveying their emotions
D.they use simpler emotions to show their feelings
