There is a popular belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling. No school I have taught in has ever ignored spelling or considered it unimportant as a basic skill. There are, however, vastly different ideas about how to teach it and how to encourage a child to write without holding him back with the complexities of spelling.
If spelling becomes the only focal point of his teacher’s interest, clearly a bright child will be likely to "play safe". He will tend to write only words within his spelling range, choosing to avoid adventurous language. That’s why teachers often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability.
I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a piece of writing about a personal experience:
"This work is terrible! There are far too many spelling errors and your writing is not neat." It may have been a sharp criticism of the pupil’s technical abilities in writing. But it was also a sad reflection on the teacher who had omitted to read the essay, which contained some beautiful expressions of the child’s deep feelings. The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the errors. But if his priorities had centred on the child’s ideas, an expression of his disappointment with the writing would have given the pupil more motivation to seek improvement." [br] The phrase "play safe"(Sentence 1, Para. 2)probably means ______.
选项
A、writing very neatly
B、focusing on the content of words
C、only using the words students can write
D、using the simplest words in writing
答案
C
解析
语义理解题。本题询问文章第二段第一句中的短语“play safe”的意思很可能是什么。与这个短语相关的句子是文章第二段第一句话和第二句话,第二句话是对第一句话的进一步说明。根据第二句话可知学生只用自己会拼写的单词写作文,是为了避开那些有可能会拼写错误的单词。所以,短语“play safe”是指学生在写作中只用自己会写的单词,故选项C为正确答案。
